Not worthy of a new thread, but for those who subscribe to The Athletic, you should read today’s article about Iowa State. Great profile of their program, especially about how they go about portal recruiting. What stands out to me is that their coach has a very specific approach in the kind of players he targets. They rarely go after high priced guys, but identify players who fit the way ISU plays and jump on them quickly. One of my biggest issues with Moser is the fact that we don’t seem to have any identity, and that shows in portal recruiting. One year we go after athleticism, the next it’s shooting, etc. It’s hard enough to win if the roster changes every year, but it’s even worse when you don’t have any identity from year to year.
Anyhow, it’s a very interesting read.
