Exactly how I’ve seen it. Needed a playable 4/5 and another combo guard that can play. Move Karvala, Manhertz, Sokolov to 11,12,13.

Two things can be true: 1. The overall talent level has been significantly upgraded 2. It’s still a horribly constructed roster. The core of this years roster is pretty darn good and if it stays healthy, we should win a fair amount of games. But the bench is a disaster. Zero playable big men and zero primary ball handlers. Our 6th and 7th man are massive question marks as neither have proven a thing and players 8-10 are all true freshman and complete unknowns. While the overall talent level is significantly better, we’re an injury away from potentially being worse than last year.

Raby reports we have made it clear to Grivna that he has an IU offer. Raby indicates he thought an offer was extended to Grivna last summer at a team camp, but in any event, the staff made it clear this weekend that he does indeed have an IU offer. He attends Louisville Ballard HS and play AAU on the 3SSB circuit for Wildcat Select. We had at least 1 staff member at every one of this past weekend's 4 games. He participated in the 2026 Men's Junior National Team April minicamp in Indianapolis this past April. https://www.kentucky.com/sports/high-school/prep-basketball/article315709749.html @Mason_Grivna33 247 Hudl 2026 AAU stats Mason Grivna '29 - Wildcat Select Date Gms Pts FGM FGA 3PM 3PA FTM FTA Reb Ast Stl Blk Sessions I and II 8 20.1 73 103 6 10 9 19 8.0 0.5 0.5 3.0 Count/Avg 8 20.1 71% 60% 47% 8.0 0.5 0.5 3.0 HS 25-26 28 16.8 70% 47% 72% 9.2 na na na

Yes. Both Harris and Mustaf had deep, prior connections to Kenny Johnson as he recruited both hard while at Georgetown. Staff wasn’t going to take a chance of getting the run around like last cycle and both players committed without taking other visits. Both were paid and paid well as we seemingly ran out of money after 6 players. We needed 7 or 8.

DRtg factors almost entirely into the lineup around you. It’s extremely tough to have a poor DRtg when the entire team has a strong DRtg.

I believe you’re wrong. Other teams, besides IU, spending where we are at are using lots of that money on returning players or freshmen. They’re not counted in the portal ratings because…. freshman and returning players are not in the portal. Also you can go up and down this thread and find comments from me saying I like the portal haul. I just don’t think “top 5 portal haul” means much because I don’t think it’s a proxy for overall roster construction, which you clearly do.

PUke has won the cup as both their men's and women's teams finished better than our teams in the outdoor track and field championships. Final score 10.5 to 9.5.

Cignetti to Ferentz:

And the pitching is not bad. It’s just not elite like the hitting.

Welcome to Shonda Stanton ball. Pitching would be a nice bonus to make even more noise going forward. However, IU has been an elite offense for years now with mediocre pitching and still plows into a regional every year so def don't 'need' it to get back, but more to contend to win one. However, how about appreciating a program that did very little for years being a postseason team now yearly. It would be great to break through and maybe win one but what coach has built is something to applaud. Its not something to criticize when a culture is built on a strong team bond with elite offenses and power that often requires winning shootouts. It works and wins 40+ games a year and gets to postseason always. Great pitching needs to be treated as a bonus. Not a baseline that is on the verge of imploding when its clearly not.

I could see that, but I could also see it be fairly comparable too… maybe not but I can’t imagine we would pay that much for a player with quite a few limitations.

*no comment*

We just simply did not have the pitching this season. Going to need some pitching we plan on making it to regionals again next season.

Until I see a California kid to Indiana I’ll never believe it. Especially Compton Magic

No idea what article you're referring to, but right now, it ain't lookin' good. PUke men and the PUke women both have leads over us in the T&F championships. If those leads hold up, PUke will win the competition outright for the first time since 2018.

Complete apples to oranges comparison here, so almost even irrelevant numbers, but Harris' numbers last year at Duke would have ranked him on IU: 1st in DRtg 3rd in ORtg

3 weeks ago he was a straight nobody and 3 weeks from now he’ll have every offer imaginable.

If I am reading this very poorly article correctly the Men’s came in after Purdue but our women’s team placed ahead of Purdue so Purdues futility continues

We have just a few offers out to players on the 3SSB circuit but here's their stats after 2 sessions.

With you on what could have been done with Harris' money if you're saying Dorn is kept as our 9th-10th guy (which would be 4th or 5th guard). Just not as a starter or 6th man playing 20+ mpg.

We don't but one can make an educated guess based on a few things, considering that it's more expensive to acquire talent in the portal than retain it, the market went up again this cycle even compared to last cycle, Dorn is probably deeper on the bench for Miami than Harris is for IU, and (I could be mistaken) we locked up Harris before he went on his UVA visit, so the number must've been good enough that the trip was no longer worthwhile

Again, I agree with you on the vast majority of this conversation, just not Dorn. He was bad at basically everything except spot-up shooting (which he was really only average at). Can't imagine Dorn starting and/or playing 20+ mpg on a good or even upper-middle of the pack Big Ten Team. Maybe he proves me wrong at Miami, but the ACC isn't the Big Ten.

Because he ended up at Miami where he’s their 4th or 5th guard.
