I had his mom send me some VCR clips of his pre-1 "crib" activity...I liked his bottle "cross-over" skills - great quickness & manual dexterity, has that uncanny ability to see the full-crib while playing w/ his "rail runner," has that ELECTRIC impact upon all the crib stuffed toyz...makes 'em come alive. Will be an uptempo game threat from ISU, as defenders have to play him loose.

WTF?

I think this kid will commit. We get a player like this every year it seems. Under the radar, pops up out of nowhere with an offer from State, comes and takes his official visit, and commits while he's here or right afterwards.

@Rick_Sports10: 6'3 point guard Laquarious Paige told Sports 10 he picked Sycamores over Sam Houston State, Harvard, Rice.

welcome! I totally agree, there will be "age of Laquarious" signs everywhere in the student sections at ISU games.
 
I'd neglected looking @ the video that 'Boda posted until this morning...this kid's cross-over dribble is brutal. One on one he CONSUMES his defender. Above all...he's still got view of his teammates for a dish. Exciting player..

Looks to be very athletic and seems to be as interested in passing and getting others involved as he is scoring. Nice size for a point guard, should be a plus on the defensive side which I am sure Lansing has already thought of.

Welcome to the program Mr. Paige!

Cool...was curious if you've ever read anything about the ISU v. Houston 1977 NIT game (known as "The Battle of the Birds"), featuring OTIS BIRDSONG v. LARRY BIRD? We went 25-3 that season, but fell short in Houston, 83-82 as LB's final shot fell short off the rim (Bird - 44 pts/14 reb). Outside of Magic Johnson in the 79 NCAA Final Game, I'd rate BIRDSONG #2 on the ISU Bird Era All-Opponet squad. Here's a lil' history on Otis:

No this is my first time reading about that but it's really interesting. Bird was great, even the greatest fall short sometimes . It's all good though .

Welcome aboard Laquarious! Can't wait to see you wearing Sycamore Blue!!!

Just remember when you're here - we're a bunch of people with basically no lives who live, eat, and breathe ISU sports. Therefore, sometimes we say things in the heat of the moment that we don't really mean. So take what we say with a grain of salt!!!

I'm thrilled you're here, and will love to read your perspective on things!!!
