Story about Issa Samake of Grand View Christian, a small (Class 1A) private school in Des Moines, IA, committing to Drake.

Grand View Christian High School has a total enrollment of 128 - roughly the size of Astoria, DePue or Champaign Judah Christian HS.
It will be interesting to see how he does against top competition...

Here is a video of Issa Samake from a couple summers ago. He appears to have a limited offensive game, as 90% of the video is him blocking shots. But he looks like a good shot blocker.

Please take this in the light-hearted manner it is intended.......

I find it funny that when other schools have transfers having to sit out they are listed as "transfer eligible in 2019", where ISU's transfers are listed as "all three ineligible until fall of 2019". :D:D:D

Got to love college fan rivalries.
 
but it is quite factual & has the exact same meaning- just saves a whole line of type...
note I also lumped the Missouri State & Valpo transfers together because they happened at about the same time as well...
I can assure you there was no ulterior motive...I think you are trying too hard to find bias - but I have never denied that I have a bias against ISU

No ulterior motive. Just found it funny the small ways that biases are exhibited. The ineligible word just has a different perception than transfer does.
 
Missouri State picks up a very late addition...

Tyrik Dixon, a Middle Tennessee transfer chooses Missouri State..
he will sit out 2018-19 and have two years remaining in 2019-2020 & 2020-2021
Dixon is a 6-1 guard who averaged 4.8 ppg and 3.0 reb, playing 22.5 min per game and hitting 32.8% from 3-pt
https://www.news-leader.com/story/s...ransfer-missouri-state-point-guard/854113002/

Dixon left MTSU in the midst of other players being dismissed but the circumstances were not made clear - https://www.dnj.com/story/sports/co...-johnson-dixon-thomas-transferring/706533002/
 
Tyrik Dixon seems like a decent transfer. He has been a starter at point guard for Middle Tennessee in both his freshman and sophomore seasons, and was their 5th leading scorer (4.8 ppg), and their top assist guy last season at MTSU (3.1 apg), and had a nice 2.4 assist to turnover ratio (100/42).
