Hallice Cooke and Darien Williams both signed their letters of intent to play for Iowa State to have an opportunity to play for head coach Fred Hoiberg. However, that opportunity never materialized as Hoiberg decided to leave the program to coach for the Chicago Bulls.
After Hoiberg left for the NBA, Williams decided to follow the coaching staff that recruited him to St. Johns. On the other hand, Cooke played a season under Steve Prohm.
While they ended up going up in different directions, today the two end up playing their final years of eligibility for Nevada under head coach Eric Musselman.
