Evan Fitzner to IU

I’m not trying to be the big Evan Fitzner backer, I’ve never even seen him play as far as I know, but not sure why you’re comparing him to April/Priller/Gelon? The guy was offered by Cal, Colorado, Oregon St., USC and others coming out of high school, and in three years as a 6’9” guy has shot over 40% from 3 in over 300 attempts for a really good mid-major program.

Totally agree with you - my point is that there is far less downside risk to taking a chance on a guy (who some are skeptical is high level enough to contribute) who is only going to be here for 1 year as opposed to someone coming in as a freshman. I am all for bringing Fitzner in.

Fitzner addresses two needs: shooting and another big. If he can come off the bench and give 15-20 mpg while shooting 40+% from deep, and defend well he'll be a fantastic addition.

I'm not counting Davis until he is back and healthy. We have Morgan as our lone big that has seen any meaningful action. We all hope Thompson, Moore, and Forrester can provide something but having a grad transfer that can get minutes while the others develop will be important.

Me too...just wondering if juwan hasn't heard anything from scouts and archie is trying to get someone in to replace him. I hope juwan gets the opportunity to go to the NBA but for selfish reasons I hope that is after this year lol!

I really don't think Romeo would come if juwaun was going pro. That's my opinion.

According to Rabby he expected to decide in the next 48-72 hours. If he wants to come to IU they will take him so it sounds like he does in fact have an offer.

Thanks!  Anyone know what other options he is considering?

UC-Santa Barbara. Rabby said he is trying to decide if he wants to be the man on a mid major or a contributor on a really good team. He’s from California so I’d imagine that’s a hard decision.

Damn... would be hard to pass up a free year in Santa Barbara.

I did 1 single summer school session there. (brother was going there at the time)  NO IDEA WHY I CAME BACK TO INDIANA.  Oh yeah, I love my Hoosiers!

 

Place is God's country.
