Are you on the inside?

Just a guess...

Is BTOWN being on the inside common knowledge or something?

BTOWN is a 21 year old who is on IU campus, so he's more "inside" than many of us.

LOL, sorry guys. Didn't mean to sound that mysterious or start anything but just thought I would pass on some stuff that I've heard/know/read. I usually stay pretty quiet but with the site going through problems I thought it would be a good time to start posting a little bit more.

Yes, please.

It was originally thought that Kris would be a Spring decision until recently when things really picked up and he got serious about his recruitment. I could see both sides aiming for Hoosier Hysteria so that's definitely a possibility. He should be signed in November. 

Signed at IU?

Didn't hear this from Damon Bailey's uncles brothers son right? :)

The first rule of Fight Club is you don't talk about Fight Club!

For the new posters on the board it's best to sit back and what to see if those people making claims are right.  People build up a reputation of having good or bad info.  Although recruiting is extremely fluid and difficult to predict. 

As far as Wilkes, he would be a perfect fit in IU's system and I believe he knows this.  As pap as said time and time again, IU does a really good job on unofficial and OV.  Hopefully IU will get the chance to have OVs with both Wilkes and Scruggs.  If it is at HH I hope that crowd shows them how much Hoosier Nation wants them at IU.

Everyone knows that Hoosier and Alaska have the most reliable info. duh! We are closest to the source

Wilkes and Scruggs at HH will be big time.

I think we need to be careful about letting this HH talk go on as fact. IIIIIII read it wrong the first time. BTOWN actually just said he can see HH making sense, and I'm on board with that I suppose. My apologies to BTOWN.

But to my original point....IU and Kris Wilkes are by no means talking Hoosier Hysteria as an OV right now. I'm not even sure IU gets an OV, Kris and his Dad know just about everything with IU and the staff. I'm glad Kris cut his list to end some of the speculation and narrow it down. The reality is Kris is down to five, with 3 legit options. IU is one of them and I like Indiana's chances here, honestly. But if anyone tells you he's going here or there BEFORE the UCLA visit or Xavier visit, I'm calling BS every time.

That UCLA visit is Sept 22nd. I'm not sure he makes it. Remember, Wilkes DID set a UNC visit for 8/26-8/28 which is obviously not happening. If he makes the visit, UCLA could shake things up, who knows. I'm of the camp that thinks ultimately UCLA is too far from home for him but thats speculation on my part. If he doesn't make the visit, you're down to two basically.

[HoosierRob 1,042]

Would you favor IU as to now pap?

[WayneFleekHoosier 46,731]

If we get Wilkes, and I so hope we do. He needs to be shooting 500 shots a day. FT and 3 numbers aren't good enough.

I should have worded it differently but this is in no way saying that HH is going to happen. And to clear up the last sentence... This means a decision will be made by the November Signing Period, (to whichever school he chooses). Which I think is down to IU, Xavier and UCLA, in that order. With IU and Xavier having the highest chances at this time. 

My apologies again.

That's my take too. I like the wings in 17. Would be nice to get 2 of them.
