Did Bennett & Murphy commit? Also, doesn't Samuels have TWO (2) years of eligibility. He's never played for ISU...

Wow, we will apparently have some experienced players on the block for 2014-15, but we are going to lose it all at once!

It's usually pretty tough to get a sixth year, but Lansing recently said Mike wasn't going to come back late in the season and burn a year of eligibility. This makes me believe they think he has a chance to be granted a sixth year. Just speculation though.

Assuming Mike Samuels plays next year, will he have one or two years of eligibility?

The staff Todd Golden he has 2 years. However, that would be assuming the NCAA granted him a 6th year of eligibility which is rarely done. Honestly think they should cut ties with him this season and find someone that can play.

I love that Smith will be a 24 yr old senior....and I say that sincerely, he's gonna have the physique and mentality of a man, not a college kid.

And let's hope that he has the leadership qualities of a man also.

Included in those leadership duties would be eliminating the substance abuse problem, that's surrounded the program for the last 4 - 5 years.

How would he (or any Senior or Junior led class) do this?

Leadership could mean setting every night curfew hours. Including curfew hours on weekends!!!
Leadership could mean random bed checks at dorms, or any place where scholarship athletes are living.
Leadership could mean, submitting anyone on the team to own Drug Screening tests. If leadership doesn't have the money to buy the Drug Testing Kits, then start asking others e.g. alumni, the head coach, the assistant coaches, or the AD for cash funds to buy them.
Leadership means creating consequences for behavior. You fail a drug test, you're running the stairs at the HC until you puke.
Leadership means calling people out in a team only setting.
Leadership means accounting for conduct, on and off the court.

Someone mentioned in a post a week or two ago that they knew for a fact that two players on the team didn't smoke pot. That's not the point. It only matters what they do as leaders, to stop the substance abuse cycle in their midst.

When I was in a fraternity at ISU, we had a mix of students, and I mean a mix.....but everyone, and I mean everyone knew who smoked pot, or who took pills. Consequently, to control the usage and behavior, if you were caught smoking in the alley…it was $50.00 fine. It was a $100.00 fine if caught smoking on fraternity property, and you were thrown out of the fraternity if caught with weed or drugs in the house.

So when Khristian becomes that 24 year old man, with all of the physical attributes, let’s hope it’s accompanied with some leader of the pack skills as well

Updated. Still leaves one spot open for 2014-2015 if we could find a fifth-year transfer. As it stands, means we would have 3 open scholarships for the 2015 recruiting class unless they find another transfer with multiple years of eligibility.

He isn't reshirting, he is sitting out the mandatory one year per NCAA rules. He has already used up 2 seasons of eligibility.

I posted this in his transfer thread, but I wonder if the NCAA could be petitioned for immediate eligibility there? Not sure how the military schools work and with the glut of guys his size, we probably want him to sit.
