Good deal. Would have annoyed me seeing him each year against ISU.

Marquette

They are building a powerhouse up there.

 

[EastIowaHawk]

Marquette used to be a powerhouse. They used to get a lot of Chicago kids who wanted to get out of the city.

Doesn't that mean that eventually he does wind up a Clown?

At least a house of power forwards with reportedly 2 more being recruited.

I get what u are saying...in that a few Marquette players have headed to Ames.

 

[RocknRollface]

Awsome. Its like Nebraska and ISU losing.

Good for Morrow glad he didn't go to that school west of Iowa City. You got to think with Wojo at Marquette and Collins at N'western those 2 are almost auditioning for Duke job once coach K leaves with how they do with their respective programs.

Took a while to get to Nick Saban, didn't it?

Back to Ed Morrow, why did he leave Nebraska?

Morrow was being asked to play almost exclusively under the basket and wanted to develop his outside game so that he would have a chance to play at the next level. Nebraska was also playing a guard oriented offense which was not putting the ball in Morrow's hands enough.

Morrow was not going to play in the NBA as a PF with no outside game and so he moved on to hopefully play as a SF elsewhere.

Thanks. I think he would've looked pretty good as a Hawkeye, too.

Morrow is never playing in the NBA. His game and size combo just isn't going to work for him. Really good college play but I don't see a paying future in the NBA there.

I agree with you. I just remember in his recruitment it came down to Iowa and Nebraska.

Just a hypothetical, but I wonder had he come to Iowa would his future have been the same (I.e., transfer after 2years).
