    How can people be surprised that Iowa signed Mike and Carlton.....they were the best players on the best team in the state of Iowa.......

    It is impressive when you think that 4 of the 5 starters on that team are Mike Henderson, Carlton Reed, Travis Ferguson (FB ISU) and Milan Moses (FB ISU).

      And Ben and a group of non-DI athletes beat them the year before that, hehehe. The real East High, Sioux City East.

      Mike Hendersen is a tremendous athlete and player. He was Ben and Horners AAU team, and that kind can ball. I think that Stevie Wonder has too many talented guards to know what to do with them. Hendersen is a classic point guard he plays tenacious D, drives the ball, and looks to pass.

      I dont know about Reed much, didnt see him play as much as I did Mike, but I would find it hard to believe there was a better all around athlete on the Waterloo East team than Mike those couple years.

      Just my thoughts.

        That East team was held together by Frashon McGhee who is playing at Cleveland State. Without him that team would have imploded and gone really selfish without his leadership. Henderson owes a lot of his maturity and leadership ability to McGhee.

          It looks to me that Carlton has lost all of his confidence that he once had playing in high school. I went to a bunch of his games a few years back to watch him play and I thought he would have a chance to crack the starting lineup at Iowa his freshman year.

          He for sure looked better than Mikey back then as he was their main scoring threat. (Although Mikey had the better defending skills) Reed is lightning quick and could always shoot the 3. He was East's go to guy his junior and senior years.

          Remember the year after Henderson left East and Reed made it back to the finals, but ended up losing to Linn-Mar.

          I think we could find a spot for him here. We get his confidence back, use his quickness, and 3 point shooting ability and we have another player on our hands.

          By the way, BCrawf Henderson and McGee graduated together...Reed went to the championship game w/out those 2...

            Actually McGhee was a year older than Henderson. I played Freshman Football with him the the year he went to West. Talk about a world of potential as a receiver!!

                  Iowa is going to have a bad team next year. Seems like Reed would have played a lot...

                    Reed and Thompson are both leaving what are the chances UNI gets either one? I would think Thompson would go back to Ames, but I've heard he's a bit of a head case. I remember hearing that he didn't like how he was being coached in HS and his parents went in to the principal or someone like that and had the coach fired. The coach later won a wrongful firing settlement I believe. I did hear from a friend of mine over at ISU that it sounds like Thompson is already planning to walk on for Mac at ISU

                        Well I was still in HS at West Des Moines Valley and Ames is in our conference so we knew about it plus I think it was in the register, but all the talk with ISU people is he's gonna walk on nothing for sure of course

                          Glad that Thompson is going to ISU. He's worthless as a college player. Reed I still think could be a good player for us at UNI. It'd be nice to see him decide to come "home".
