Sounds like he committed to South Carolina which seems very weird....
All’s brother is in fact named Always and he has in fact entered the portal as well. You can’t make that shit up.
Mulder averaged 8 and 6 at Fort Wayne and is from Oskaloosa.
Buchanan averaged 5 and 5 at Virginia.
I have no idea what they were offered, or who else was after them, but I don’t think these are 7 figure players.
This board would have McCollum on a train back to Maryville if these were his two big portal additions.
They need to replenish their roster. 5 guys in portal on top of guys graduating. Have only 4 guys back plus the walk on who played some minutes in the tourney. Looking at previous 2 recruiting classes 6 of 7 gone or in portal with only momcilovic left.
This isn’t true and these two portal guys are role players.
I see 7' 2" Will Berg from Putdue hit the portal today. Hard to understand why he would leave Post U.
What a complete tool you are KurtBoth Iowa and Iowa St are following the same path:

Might not want to look at the roster of Florida and Duke. Some superstars, starters and role players that are playing major minutes are white.
We have to drop this narrative that every white player is like our white players.
Agreed, we just need GOOD players. Obviously the more athleticism the better, but Duke is one example of a great program that has often had its share of prominent white players on the roster.
With that being said, they get the highest quality of white players!
Paywall so idk who but a “slew” seems like a good number of visits🤷🏽♂️
I just know if that white from DePaul is visiting.
Jesus. The top c in the transfer portal was white. The top pg in the portal was white. Top 3 sg transfer was white.
2 of the top nba players are white. The #1 overall pick will be white.
What are we doing here. That dude maybe it was u, but whoever brang up race should be blocked
I will agree the American Whites are having a basketball renaissance of sorts in the NBA
I mean ya, there are obviously good white players out there for sure. But it’s hard to argue when you look at the nba and its 70% black players and 17% white 🤷♂️
Edit to add: i really don’t give a shit what ethnicity the players for Iowa are, as long as they buy into McCollum's style!
You're not wrong.. And I also don't necessarily care about whether we put a ton of guys in the NBA.. It would be great to get NBA-level talent (obviously!), but what I care about most is that they can be great college players.
I agree with your last sentence in particular. If McCollum is getting the guys he wants, I'm good with it whoever those players are, because I have to trust that he know what he's doing when constructing a roster.
The operative word in your post is "some."
The white population in USA is 75% and black population is 14%. IF the probabilities of being a superstar were the same by race, then there would be mostly white superstars and "some" black superstars. If you randomly observe a basketball player on the court at the P4 level and he is a superstar, more than likely he is black. Most Elite male basketball players are black--the NBA at 70.4 percent black athletes is an obvious indication of that fact.
I don't think anyone thinks just because you are black you are a good player and just because you are white you are a bad player. The vast majority of both races are not elite basketball palyers.
I don't think anyone would dispute that Freeman and Dix were good players, close to elite and fringe NBA players. Their current high NIL value proves their relative worth at the college level. The roster that Fran built around those two guys wasn't very good and didn't compensate for the deficiencies in their games--as the 7-13 B1G record showed. We had a couple really,really good white players and Fran surrounded them with meh talent and Fran was a meh coach.
Ben is still trying to get him back from his comments
Sounds like Iowa will be hosting the Drake players this week as well per Chris Hassel on the 2 guys Pod
Drake Portal Players:
- Isaia Howard
- Kael Combs
- Cam Manyawu
-Tavion Banks

I know most or all of these players have been mentioned here previously, but based on some online digging, I would expect a few players from this list to visit in the coming days:
All Wright - G - Valpo
Tyeree Bryan - G - Santa Clara
Quentin Jones - G - Northern Illinois
Gavin Walsh - F - Binghamton
Jacob Ognacevic - F - Lipscomb
BJ Omot - F - Cal
Keonte Jones - F - CSUN
Carson Towt - F - Northern Arizona

Yeah I’m banking on obviously the Drake players and probably a player or 2 from the MVC and a couple from some smaller/mid majors to fill out the roster.
Don’t really have favorites, just want to see who Ben can bring in and how he can translate that talent to the floor
The staff definitely watched Omot on the summer circuit but I don’t think they ever got that aggressive in their pursuit of him.
