Per IA_Barnstormers twitter, Iowa offered Wes Washpun today. Anyone have any info on this guy? I'm out of the area and haven't kept up with Iowa HS basketball.

Was just going to post this myself.
Good news for Wes. I know he wants to be a Hawk in the worst way possible.

I ended up just pasting the link in the message body. Couldn't get the 'attach link' function to work. Have u been able to use that? I'm still trying to figure everything out around here.

Is this an offer that would have been extended if Cully had not departed today? Reading between the lines here, but it seemed before today that Fran wasn't exactly beating down his door even though there had been some interest from other D1 programs.
Was the timing strictly coincidence?
Following Todd around since 2011.

I think they really like Wes and his game but had other targets they may have preferred to offer. Now, with a third scholarship opening, they can afford to extend an offer to him while still pursuing some other targets that may be harder to land.
Would they have offered with only two scholarships? It is likely but it may have come much further down the road.
Washpun was starting to get some interest from a lot of other schools and it was time for Iowa to strike before it was too late.
My immediate hunch is he will commit in the not-too-distant future.

Great!

He grew up a Hawk fan, he's right up the road in CR and he and Oglesby have a great relationship. I think the tea leaves are pretty easy to read on this one.
He's quite an athlete. Check out this YouTube video of one of his dunks.

Awesome! Quite an athlete. I like our athleticism with Basabe, Marble, May, Cartwright, and Washpun (assuming he signs). Is he a shooter?
