Some tidbits on a couple commits...

Saw on twitter that Joe Wieskamp is in scouts first 2018 ranking in the Top 20.

Also that Ryan Kriener is still growing
The statement that a recruit is "still growing" actually comes to fruition often enough to make it tantalizing but doesn't happen often enough to make most fans rather skeptical.

For all the justifiable excitement about Cook's commitment, if Wieskamp's ranking holds, he could be the highest ranked recruit Iowa's had since player rankings meant anything. The irony, of course, is that in order for Wieskamp to end up at #19 in 2018, he will have to "keep growing" like Kriener is supposed to be doing.
 
Yep, it's ridiculous that rivals does not have Wieskamp in the top 25.Scout and ESPN have it right. Best player in the state since Paige. Nik Stauskas/Devyn Booker type of player.

Clone fans will say this doesn't count. In fact the he only way it will ever count is if Pollard tweets it.
 
Hey, grumpy Legend is back!

You're more fun than that guy who has been impersonating you lately.
 
Is it just me, or do the first few kids have incredibly long necks? Hawks are going to have a lot of potential if Wieskamp, the McC boys, and Cook stay healthy. Wouldn't hurt if Kriener grew a couple of inches, as a few of Wisky's players have done over the past few years.

they do don't they, you know the saying, long neck long....

Sorry, gotta go with Legend on this one. It was really nice when JWR/100/whatever just spewed his endless crap on the rivalry board instead of destroying threads on the sports boards.

Oh, no, I agree. That was kind of my point. There are times L12 goes overboard, but he does serve a good purpose at times.
 
When clone fans and Pollard quit acting as they do I will leave them alone. Any idea when we can expect this?
Take it to the clown site then. And how does posting about their AD and fans on a Hawkeye site do anything besides piss off Hawk fans?

and how does posting on a Hawkeye site all about their glorious recent BB recruiting (way ahead of ours you know), their 4 straight NCCA's, etc, etc....not piss off Hawk fans? ... why don't you tell them to take it to their clown site?

you don't get it....

Fran wanted Jackson over Bohannon (no factual info to claim this at all).
Iowa & ISU both needed to get a good PG - ISU got one (Jackson)..Iowa got a fallback (Bohannon)... on a Hawkeye site that is nothing more than a smart ass comment.
If you look at Jackson & Williams (Christian) - Jackson is 100% better (100%...better....not 10 not 20...ONE HUNDRED).

I could go on & on....you are not here to carry on nice little conversations with Hawkeye fans...and you know it...
What do you think would happen if I posted the same on Cyclone site ?
 
This thread was about Iowa recruits. Not one post by an ISU fan nor one single mention of ISU until you jumped in with your insanity.

You were barely tolerable when you were wallowing in the cesspool that was the Rivalry Board, but at least when that was available the rest of this site was not subjected to your constant stupidity. There is reason you've had so many screen names banned on here, and it not due to you bringing a high level of discourse to the board.

It is because the following categories of people dislike you:

  • Iowa fans
  • ISU fans
  • Moderators
  • Humans
You are like the whiney little kid who never gets invited to birthday parties so instead of altering your frame of mind and actions to try and fit in, you throw your feces at the wall and use it to finger paint with all the while calling it art and claiming you're normal and society is out to get you.

I get all of this Legend....but it would be nice you also hold a little standard for some of your ISU brothers when they post on a free Hawkeye site...I for one was & am getting a little sick and tired of reading all things great about ISU and all we got was a PG fallback...

I do think Bohannon was a fallback recruit and I know there were Hawk fans out there that weren't too excited about the commitment. I still think he will be a decent role player I just think Iowa would have been better off which a playmaker at PG and it appeared Fran was trying to recruit one of those before offering Bohannon.

That did come off bad the way I said it previously though and I got caught up in the moment

you never answered....what do you think would happen if I posted come off bad post on a ISU site? ... so if your intent (which I don't believe is the case) was to just have some friendly conversation with Iowa fans....you really missed the mark.

So I'm done with you & your cousins...carry on telling all of us all things ISU.

And you calling them my "ISU brothers" is going to get me on your side?

89/91 is the biggest issue on this site right now....get rid of him and a lot of the problems cease to exist as I think some of the other "new" posters are his cellmates at the institution as they all seem to travel from board to board as a pack.

Then we can go back to Farmer Clone and Lone Clone being the main ISU posters on the board (sorry if I missed others) and while we don't always agree with them, the conversation is almost always civil and it's nice to have different opinions on here.

Oh, and Iowa DID get a fallback PG in this upcoming class. But who knows how that will turn out. Probably better than that stiff Aaron White from a few years back. :)

sorry if I missed others...ya you sure are sorry.

I am....those are the 2 I enjoy the most, especially Lone's stuff about the history of the 2 programs. Yes, it almost always has an ISU slant, but still some good stuff for hoops junkies.

Who are the others that have historically posted the most on here? Those are the 2 that immediately came to mind for me.

come on i'm not talking about those 2...and you know it...and I never said anything about historically posting...like you are now questioning? ... we have recent new ISU posters...and you know who they are because you've read their posts...

I am glad you love so much the clone fan behavior that I model. Someday clone fans will get but apparently today isn't that day.

Again Legend if isu, it's fans and AD didn't act exactly as I say they do there wouldn't be anything to mock.

Yes, but like I said...I think some of these "new: ISU posters were part of the Rivalry Board cesspool. 89/91 is the leader...kinda like Hitler was....and if the head of the group is cut off, the body will die.

Hey legend can you ban the behavior of isu, it's fans and AD? Now that would be fun to watch.

Or must we just ignore it so you can feel good?
 
So make your own damn thread about it, don't hijack every single thread that he posts in. You've now turned this in to a thread about your pissing match with Iowa St. instead about how it's awesome that an Iowa recruit is highly rated. Congrats.

Now cue the response "well their fans do it in every thread, so I'm just doing what they do..."
 
I would say this. If the Iowa/ISU stuff could be kept on threads started by ISU fans, or related to ISU posts started by Iowa fans, I have no problem. And on those threads when the Clones get on my nerves I'm likely to jump in and tell them where to put their opinions. I used to avoid it, but after ISU lost to Iowa it got a little too silly.

But yes, it shouldn't spread to threads such as this one, that was started with a couple pieces of info about the Hawkeyes.
