That center from Michigan...
- Thread starter DanL53
- Start date
Higgins didn't ref the final game. The one who did a lot of BIG games was Pat Driscoll.

I do not believe that Iowa has offered Edwards so it would be hard to lump him in with Morrow. In fact, if he does get offered, Edwards would be a fall back offer at this point. That said, IMHO he is a quality player. But I think Dale Jones is a proven scorer and rebounder at the JC level, so I think Iowa will be happy in the long run. Jones also fits Iowa's class distribution better. As it is, there will be 6 kids in the freshman class at Iowa this year with Ellingson joining the 5 recruits. Lots of shooting guards to push Jok.
Can anyone explain the Dale Jones delay? We've heard he's a lock for about a month now and still nothing. Tyler CC must have some tough classes that need to be finished up, wow.
Fran was at the Final 4 this weekend so it wouldn't have worked. I assume it will happen soon though.

He will be making a visit soon and the word is, if he gets along well with the coaches and players, he will commit.
March 25th is a month ago? It was then that Tom wrote an update about Jones, and said he'd just finished up his season. Take out the NCAA Dead Period, where Fran and some of his coaches were probably at the Final Four, and there hasn't been that big a window for a visit. I believe the Spring Signing Period runs from next Tuesday until Mid May, and this month there is an Evaluation Period when coaches are out scouting the 2016 class.
If I had to guess he'll probably visit this weekend, but April is key for more than just the immediate class.
LOL it only feels like a month. I wish we had another scholly for this kid but if what someone earlier said is true, then he had no interest in Iowa anyway. After getting Jones in the fold, it'll be weird not having any schollys left when we're so used to having multiple schollys open.
I'm not sure what post you are talking about, but I recall reading he wanted to play in the B1G. So far I believe Nebraska is his only B1G offer. Even though I think it will end up being moot, I'd think we could get his interest as another B1G offer.
