Sadly I can’t even tell if this is past years euro bench magnet or this years…lol

Hilarious if true

Pretty accurate in college BBall years.

Probably looks at him like a project who has 5 fouls to give if he is decent.

I agree, but that doesn't mean that with everything at IU's disposal that we shouldn't be building every season with a NC in mind. If you want to compete with the big dogs you have to think like the big dogs and not just settle for making the tourney and a second round scenario, that would be great for say, Butler.. We have to find a way to build a roster that won't get worn down by March and hopefully alleviate injuries etc.. I don't think we are far off base here either, but signing glorified walk-ons isn't going to cut it late in the season imo. Signing a quality 4/5 combo that can give some quality minutes would go a long way.

Safe to assume that the Euro coach was interviewed, and that the Euro agent sent game footage. But that's a pretty quick scrub of a foreign player that likely had never heard of Indiana University until the week or two before he signed with us.

DeVries signed a player without scouting him at all, refusing to watch a second of game tape? Seems irresponsible.

What else would Sokolov be?

That has supposedly been a foregone conclusion for awhile.

Devries thinks of Sokolov that way because he's never met nor scouted the kid; taking the word of Carr's friend that he's worth the trouble.

Commits to Purdue

This is hideous. I remember this guy’s name as a pretty highly regarded NBA sleeper-type prospect in maybe ‘21 or ‘22.

And from GA State, he's on the move to UMass Lowell.

I was thinking that too when I saw them. I take it that he might want a bit more than what we have available. I do know from the CDD Q & A yesterday, he thinks of Sokolov as the 4th freshman for whatever that is worth.

He is 33 right now, and if he just hits 30 for the next 5 years, he will be right at 500. Those last 2 years will be test as he has 3 more elite years ahead if he doesn't get hurt.

Wasn't it just a few months ago, people on this board were complaining how the money was spread around to too many players and needed to spend big on 2 or 3 and fill in the holes? It's pretty much what they did, but some still don't like it.

His per 40 blocks and steals for a big are kinda insane.

He sounds like a good fit, so how much would he want? His stats don't exactly scream "I need starter money".

Could Schwarbs hit 500? I think it's gettable if he plays until age 38. Especially if he adds another 40-50 HR season somewhere in there.

Last 17 games- .277/.382/.785 --- 10HRs

No way Sherrell is getting paid what Jeremiah Smith is getting paid. No way

Just gonna point out in the way of shear wishful thinking that Robert Miller from LSU is still unsigned. I’m sure it’s because he’s looking for ridiculous jack and probably guaranteed starter minutes but, man, from a skill fit perspective that’s all you want in a 3rd big right there.
