Yeah with Xavier offering tonight, we better offer tonight or this weekend. I really like recruits that want to play FOR Indiana. But if the coaches don't think he's good enough, then so be it

Rough games from most of our targets including Langford (injury??) and Phinisee. 

 

The aaron Henry train is chugging along at this point.  

 

[HoosierAloha 29,898]

I know most think we will take a 4 man class and obviously we all want to land Romeo. With that said, would we take a 5 man class if we do land Romeo assuming he is pretty much a 1 and done?

Why not? That helps to balance the roster the following year.

Green, Jones, Davis
Durham, Smith, Moore
4 from 2018
3 from 2019

I guess it could go a number of ways. Is it guard heavy? I wouldn't have a problem as the top recruits we're after in 2019 are wings or bigs. Do we get Garland and he might be done after 2? I wouldn't mind getting an Anderson, Henry, or Phinisee (possibly) and watch them develop.

Count me in on the Aaron Henry Band Wagon. 

First saw this guy in the state championship. Went there to see Keion Brooks put on a show but left an Aaron Henry fan. He was the best player on the floor that night. Was surprised to learn he was only a Junior at that time. Believe me, throw out the ranking, this is a kid you build a program around. And don't be surprised if he ends up a Four Star - Top 100 recruit when it's all said and done.

Henry with 17pts, 9 rebs and 7 assists. My gut feeling is he will get an offer soon.

As I have told some of you privately there is a small chance that Race Thompson might reclassify and become part of our 17 class.

I think we are looking good for Jerome Hunter also. Still think we are going to have a very good 18 class.

The only thing I know about Dort is him and Archie have really hit it off. They have a really good relationship.

Day 2 from the Peach Jam.  Trendon Watford and his Team Nike Florida had to play a play-in game but they're hangin' in there and have won 3 of their 4 games.   And Trendon is having a good tournament.  Cole Anthony is a really good FT shooter.  Jalen Carey's scoring has improved each game.  HOOsierThunder mentioned Jericole Hellems in another thread and he's been putting in a really good performance.  Hellems had an offer from FCTC but I've never seen any indications Archie and staff have any interest.  Isaiah Stewart is a strong rebounder.

Hmm ok cool. Yeah him, Hunter and Thompson might not be a sexy class but would be a really strong foundation. Fingers crossed we can get them and one of the 5 stars

Also maybe Henry with him and one of the 5 stars. Also as I said there is still a small chance that Thompson comes this year

Finally got yesterday's stats for Dort from the Adidas event.

So another potential roster "adjustment" coming to make room if he does reclassify?

No we have an open scholarship for him.

Love your optimism.

[Stuhoo 75,778]

 

Henry, Race, Romeo, Phinisee, Dort  = Easily a top ten class with three in-state players. That would be absolutely extraordinary. A Hoosier fan can dream, right?

Would we offer Henry there?  It would leave us only 2 scholarships for 19. 

[Class of '66 Old Fart 81,149]

Henry's getting all kinds of offers and has a near triple double in front of Archie.  If we have any genuine interest we probably need to get our arse off the pot and extend an offer.  Stu has said in more than one post he thinks Henry will be our first commit.

Are we not offering because we have offered a higher ranked SF? Maybe we're sitting pretty with a 4-5 star SF for next year ??
