  • Great get for Illinois State... But their fans really have no leg to stand on for talking smack on us... Again great for Illinois State

    • It’s a great signing for them. I think he’s a bit of a project. He’s very raw and inexperienced, but ceiling is high. I would have been more than excited to sign him, but I don’t feel all is lost by not getting him. Have some other candidates out there that appear to be more primed to contribute immediately.

      • Well, I hope you guys get Arop. I really do root for you guys when not in competition with ISU.

        • We really only ever saw about 30 seconds of video on him, and that was some agile dunks that made him look pretty good. His coach is definitely sunshine pumper #1 for him, and a lot of what we knew about him we got from him. We took and combined those two things (and the fact that Marshall flew down to meet with him) and got pumped on a lot of speculation.

          I don't know if he's a "top-50" guy or not. My guess based off what we learned more recently is that Georgetown and WSU wanted him to take a redshirt or even a prep year, and he wasn't down with that. Good get for ISU, though. Let's see how he is in a few years.

          EDIT: and for any ISUr fan browsing this thread, you'd better hope he doesn't do what all your other good players have done when a better team comes calling:

          The truth will set you free. But first, it will piss you off.

            We recruit A LOT of guys for a reason. They aren’t all high priority recruits.

            • Rats. Arop and Carrington the persons of interest now?

              • Interesting that the ISU board is saying this puts them THREE scholarships over the limit. Wonder how many unannounced transfers or non-qualifiers are there?

                • I actually wonder if Muller count.

                  • Good get for the birds. This guy could develop in to something special.

                    • If coach m was not such an xxxxx, I would be pleased for the birds.

                          • Academic RS now. Didnt qualify. Not sure how that allows you to practice, however.

                              ISUr signs someone that can’t qualify, I’m shocked.

                              Could very well be the reason we "cooled" on him at the last minute.

                          • Well this happened recently...

                            A private school coach unleashed a profanity-laced tirade at one of his players looking to transfer, and that tirade was caught on tape.



                            This was the school that ISUr was bragging about "starting a pipeline" with. Seems to be about right ...
