(2017) SF Jordan Tucker- OV 11/30/16

[Alford Bailey 12,259]

Seems to never be an easy decision for a highly ranked kid to come to IU. Tucker looking at other options after saying we would have an announcement soon. So many kids on that Rivals list we swung and missed at.

I'm kinda in the boat of not even caring anymore.  Always recruiting 6'7 6'8 kids and we have no true PG.  I understand needing those kinda kids but we hafta have other pieces too.  Positionless bball is really working for us huh?

ESPN was eating up the "positionless offense" Crean runs in pre-season. Even had a damn special practice broadcast on BTN. Too much hype and Tommy couldn't make it work

I guess I'm old school but traditional bball will always come out on top in the end.

He said on Instagram live that he's going to the Syracuse/Georgia Tech game tonight.

Is it possible we've cooled on him for some reason

IMO he was already starting to cool on us.

Idk. Strange recruitment. Georgia Freakin Tech? Never liked this kid despite his ranking. I look forward to seeing how he does in college. He'll probably end up being a good player but I'd take Mark Smith over Tucker.

Yea. He seemed to cool on us once og got hurt and seen how bad we were lol.

Not a huge loss if you ask me.

[akhosrof 1,168]

I don't think he's cooled on us. He knows what we're about. I'm sure the coaches text him every once and awhile to keep in contact. If it wasn't for the scholarship situation he'd be committed by now IMO. Can't blame him at all for keeping his options open and exploring them.

It's the same with him and Villanova. Tucker is still a top priority for Nova, but you don't hear anything about Nova and Tucker because they've already made their pitch.

Once OG and Blackmon announce their intentions to enter the draft, the Tucker situation will be more clear. Until then, there's no motivation for Tucker to commit.

That's true, I didn't think about it being an old pic. Just thought the Nova shirt was interesting since there hasn't been much noise about his recruitment lately.

He is GT's to lose unless we figure out our next coach and soon.

Oregon's Dana Altman and Tony Stubblefield and Georgia Tech's Josh Pastner watched 2017 wing @Therealjtucks Jordan Tucker last night.

Just had a great conversation with 4-star wing Jordan Tucker.  Planning official visits to Georgia Tech and Oregon before an April decision.

Pretty much officially rules us out, nothing surprising here

Awesome tweet and probably his recruitment was one of the more telling signs in retrospect.

Crean missed on so many though it was hard to really gauge.
