Too early on Jack, disagree on Woodbury and Weiskamp was a 4 star. He was properly rated
Will making Elite 8 impact recruiting?

If we are going off college I’d say take Paige and woody off over rated. Not sure belongs but id Glenn Worley on there of Woodbury. He had good frosh year but never took that next step and picked Iowa over Kansas. Ogelsby was a top 150 recruit I’d maybe add to the list. A name could put with an asterisk that never even made it to college and had so much hype out of quad cities and think legal issues caused some of it who was at once a highly ranked guy nationally was Jerry Myles (sp?).
Under rated I’d argue Bruner where he wasn’t coveted like Horner or haluska and ended career as leading rebounder. Going back to 90s Kent mccausland. Sure there is more UNI guys like Tuttle.
Alford had a few overrated Iowa kids. Probably most overrated was Carlton Reed, Iowa's Gatorade Player of the Year in 2004, with Alex Thompson a close second. Mike Henderson was also overrated, but came closer to meeting projections.
Lickliter had Brennan Cougill, Iowa's Mr. Basketball coming out of high school.
As for underrated guys: Peter Jok. And I agree with iahawkeyes17 regarding Brunner.

I think Mike Henderson was fine. You are right about the other guys. Cougill... woof.
I didn't think Thompson was that bad.
Fine on the first guys, to each their own.
Ogelsby... I completely forgot. Nobody made me more angry.
Brunner is a good call.
Thompson’s career scoring average after two seasons each at UI and ISU was 2 ppg.
