Honest question. When in college, how often did you leave campus to go to one of those metro areas during the school year? And how often do you think student-athletes have time to do such travels also?

depends...my son who goes to college about an hour from Chicago, goes into the city almost every single weekend...
if he were 2.5 hours away, then he probably wouldn't at all....you'd be surprised how they find all that extra time to spend on weekends!

I think you're forgetting about Dodie for next year, I don't understand why everyone sees him as a 3. He's a natural PG, we just play so small he slots in at the 3. He started in the Big 12 as a pg 2 yrs ago. I actually prefer him running the point to EM, our roster was just so weird that he was at the 3 this year. I have no problem playing 3 guards, but when we look at TW as a 4, or rule out someone as pg because they're over 6 ft, we've got problems...

Actually, Dodie did not start at ISU and when he played, he was used as a shooting guard. He never showed me much as a point guard while at ISU. He is a shooting guard IMO.

Dodie played in all 31 games for Iowa State in 2006-2007, and he was a starter in 2 of them. He averaged 22.3 minutes per game, 6th highest on the team. Dodie was basically their 6th man, and was usually the first player off the bench when he wasn't starting. Though he may not have played a lot at the point, he did play some point guard, especially early in the season.
I recall him playing point against Bradley for part of the game on 12/16/06 in Des Moines, and he tied for the team lead in assists that game. He was the first sub off the bench and replaced starting PG Mike Taylor in the first half of that game, and actually started the second half.
