I wonder at this point if @ISP has any new info on top of good feelings he had yesterday.

Well Maryland was one of the other couple of places Connor happened to visit, so hopefully it’s just Maryland insider saying dumb stuff because they aren’t getting him and aren’t happy about it. If its true though, then kinda takes the wind out of my sail after seeing people say a deal is done with him on our side. I understand this stuff is fluid and people hear what they can, but man, I really hope we get him. My hopes are high on this one for multiple reasons.

Just realized one of my daughters brought this home from her 3rd grade class for info about a field trip a couple days ago…heck of a sign if I do say so myself. He’s even getting chaperoned around campus and getting paid money.

Hopefully it’s today. I waited too long yesterday already haha

If staff is trying to get him, would he be an “instead of” Essegian, or an “along with”?

Im hoping we get a commitment today from someone who was on campus last night. Waiting all day and night with no announcement thinking there was going to be one was a nightmare. I didn’t have enough thumbs to twiddle haha. Good to see he was hanging out with some teammates last night. Hopefully yesterday was a matter of sealing the deal, telling him to go hang out and have some fun while we work on your commitment video, and tomorrow we’ll let it be known.

I feel like this has happened before. We pretty much know we have a guy in the bag, someone hears another school is about to get involved, and then boom, they announce their commitment to us haha.

It was just someone else on the other forum saying “sounds like..”, so not sure where he’s hearing it.

I saw someone say Hoiberg trying to get Connor to Nebraska this weekend…sure as heck hope there’s no need for that if that’s true. I’d like to think Connor would rather stay home if there’s mutual interest with IU

I wonder if his visit is still going on at this point or if he’s already gone? I didn’t know if they just stayed the night of the day they are visiting or left same day? I guess either way could be the case, but I’d assume he still may be there.

Ok, NOW I might be getting impatient haha

I know a lot of hometown Central Noble people who are big fans of Connor are also big Purdue fans..so that’s funny to me and I love it. All the IU fans around, heck just the entire community in general are going to be so happy and excited for him.

At this point I’m hoping there’s no reason for him to feel the need to take visits to other schools. Awesome that his AAU coach is with him and wants him to go to IU.

Another thing about Connor, his freshman year when he played a good amount of minutes at Wisconsin before his back flared up, he was at about 89% on free throws. Good guy to have in there late in the game when other teams trying to foul. If he can be a guy who’s willing to accept a role as someone who can knock down some 3’s and be money at the charity stripe then he’d definitely be a good get.

Right, I agree. Connor was for sure option 1 at Central Noble and didn’t have as much competition. I’m just bias and trying to talk him up since I went to CN too (even though I graduated the year after he was born haha)
