LolTamar Bates is 6'5", 190. Seen as a mid first rounder in 2023. Currently ranked 30th by Rivals. Just for comparison, Ivey was rated 79th coming out of HS.
To say there is NO OTHER guard who projects higher isn't completely true.

TrueWagner looks like a lock top 15 nba draft pick. Did not make 1st team B1G in either coaches or media.
And let’s be honest, Kaufman prob has much more upside.Well he’ll probably be suspended for 5 games and could lose his spot I’d imagine.
I’d love to say Morton as it would mean he passes Hunter but I know Painter values Hunter’s defensive prowess.Who’s your PG?
Morton had both hands tied behind his back with mono to start the preseason and then multiple times being shelved for covid protocals. He’ll make a jump, but odds that he surpasses Hunter, who also had health issues of his own, doesn’t seem great.I’d love to say Morton as it would mean he passes Hunter but I know Painter values Hunter’s defensive prowess.
Did Young Stoney get 5 games for his DUI? I thought it was less.Well he’ll probably be suspended for 5 games and could lose his spot I’d imagine.

LOL at.................? Bates is a border line 5*. He's projected as a mid 1st rounder. I mean thats not my opinion...Its those who evaluate these kids, opinion. So if you wanna, "LOL" at the statement---fine. Just know---the same dudes who are saying this about Bates, are the same ones evaluating Ivey...
There is no probably to it....Kaufman is gonna be really, really good.And let’s be honest, Kaufman prob has much more upside.
I think Ivey is good. I also think Purdue fans itt are over projecting him. He reminds me a lot of Brandon Paul. Will likely end up a pro, but he's a volume guy that hasn't been efficient at this point. I'm sure this off-season will help him out, but I need to see it before I'm saying he's a lock for 1st team.
He played in the NBA, so he was talented. Just wasn't quite good enough to stay in the NBA. Funny thing is that when I went to look at Ivey and Paul's stats, KenPom's comparison for Ivey was Paul's freshman season.I know it’s been awhile since Paul played but was he ever projected to be a first round pick? I don’t remember him having the potential/ability that Ivey has.

Good for him. For some reason he just couldn’t hit the broad side of a barn the last two seasons. His form is textbook and he always sets his feet properly, but they just would not drop for him. A change of scenery may have been needed to break the bad juju.
Always thought this dude had "star" written all over him....As you said---maybe a change of scenery is whats needed.Good for him.

Athletic as hell, but not highly skilled outside of his shot, which as noted is excellent in terms of mechanics. They went in his first year, but not the last two. If they start falling again, he can be a valuable stretch four that can run, grab boards, and space the floor. He has lapses on D, can’t dribble, and hasn’t shown to be much of a passer, so the outside shot is key.Always thought this dude had "star" written all over him....As you said---maybe a change of scenery is whats needed.
He’s like the non Ben affleck version of Bruesewitz. Prettiest shot that never went in.Athletic as hell, but not highly skilled outside of his shot, which as noted is excellent in terms of mechanics.

Great Role Models reference right here.He’s like the non Ben affleck version of Bruesewitz. Prettiest shot that never went in.
Hope so, as nice of a kid you could ever meetAlways thought this dude had "star" written all over him....As you said---maybe a change of scenery is whats needed.
Imma take a wild guess and say they haven't been able to visit anywhere for over a year and may want to take their time a little bit more than normal. Just a wag.i felt like b1g schools would start filling up with commitments this month, but seems like kids are going wait longer this cyle

Grace Lynn Keller named Miss Iowa 2021
Grace Lynn Keller, 22, of Island Lake, Illinois, was crowned Miss Iowa 2021 to wrap up the competition held this weekend at the Adler Theatre in Davenport.qctimes.com
Saw this on the Iowa board, and thought it was pretty amusing. Illinois women won 1st and 2nd price in the Miss Iowa pageant. Not surprised.

Yeah I think it’ll take a bit longer with the lack of visits.i felt like b1g schools would start filling up with commitments this month, but seems like kids are going wait longer this cyle
You better get Schutt on this ov. We coming.Yeah I think it’ll take a bit longer with the lack of visits.
I know MSU feels the best thus far about Tarris Reed, Tre Holloman, Jaden Schutt, and Isaac Traudt. Jalen Washington doesn’t seem like a possibility anymore.
I don’t think Wiggins and Ayala have withdrawn their names yet.
Iowa looks a little too high
I don’t think Wiggins and Ayala have withdrawn their names yet.
We should swap Brenda and Turge for a couple games and see if anybody notices.Got to trust in Turge sir...
Holy Tebow, what am I saying!!
I don’t like our chances, but Turge will give it the ole college try.And Bmore, nice knowing we had a shot at Evans after this:

I figured Izzo would have learned that going after too many Ben Affleck's wasn't a good strategery.Yeah I think it’ll take a bit longer with the lack of visits.

We’re bringing 2 of them this weekend. I heard it was to set up for his retirement so we could go right into a Fran hire smoothly.I figured Izzo would have learned that going after too many Ben Affleck's wasn't a good strategery.
