With that many turnovers maybe a magnet with the same polarity as the ball...

Minny fans probably not going to like hearing that

I'm starting to really like that woman.

This is his 2nd unofficial visit to IU. To spend their own money for not only a first but a second visit says something, I wouldn't be shocked to see him use an official visit and us be a top contender for this kid when it's all said and done.

Luke brown today , Luke brown tomorrow, Luke brown forever.

Things that make me smile: "Bates is a shot maker, the most essential tool in today’s game and Bates has it in spades. He played a vital role on this season’s IMG team as the best perimeter shooter, but also their best perimeter defender," Rivals' national analyst Jamie Shaw said. "It may be easy to pigeonhole Bates into the 3 & D moniker, and that is not a bad thing, but he has a little more shake to his game than that. Bates is good in transition and can knock down a 1-2 dribble pull up, but make no mistakes his offensive game is predicated on his deep range."

Lol

Clowney at IU seems more than likely. Guess we have to just wait, but good things come for those that do:)

Nobody "likes" the idea, it is just matter of making good decisions and IU already requires masks indoors so the precedent is there.

I think we’d have to go to the SEC (2014 SEC East champs, baby!) or become a Service Academy (we do have the bow of a ship out front!) for that.

And our run game against Cinci. We gotta get that figured out. A start to that would be keeping the defense guessing on run/pass. We haven’t been effective doing that. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

Just saying very likely. Nothing in life is absolute! Closely listen and read Clowney's words about IU after visit AND the mother's too. LOVED IT!!!!!! Didn't hear much after FL or VA Tech. Says a lot! And he will see Alabama not a basketball school. We should all know in about 2/3 weeks based on his self-imposed timeline and put this issue to rest:)

IIRC, he transferred/moved into Blackford? From Brownsburg maybe? That's not accurate. He transferred moved into Blackford as a freshman. He was never enrolled at Brownsburg and was never going to go there. I don't count anything that happens in AAU because people move teams every time the wind blows for all kinds of reasons. He's quit on 1 team and who knows the real details on that. People just like to find ways to take shots at the kid for some dumb reason.

In my opinion, it doesn't matter how much guessing happens because the front 5 just isn't cutting it out there. And it has a lot of issues to fix. Like in a hurry.

You may be right, but I just checked BTN+ website, and all they have on their event calendar is soccer and ice hockey on Oct 2nd at 4 pm

Look buddy, speak for your own lady time outcomes. I for one hope it's the same outcome as lady time!

Jobe has received an invititation to Coach Wootten's Top 150 Camp set for Oct. 2 and 3. The top 100 seniors, top 50 juniors, and a handful of the top sophomores for both the boys and the girls at the same location for 2 days of competition in Dallas! The invite-only event will be the first time when the top 150 will come together in one location for 2 days of skill work and game to prove themselves.

I'm guessing you are correct it will be extended but if it's not, no way President Whitten will require it. She doesn't like it already.

I don’t think anyone thinks he is coming to Iu. What I will say is that he is an Indiana kid that scored an obscene amount of points in high school and some like me will be interested to follow his college career and threads like this help keep some of us updated

I think he ends up being a Hoosier

For a player thread that some said had no business being on this board and had multiple pages, it sure is getting a lot of posts, some from the biggest complainers Sent from my SM-G975U using Tapatalk

Well that's reasonable! Doyle gives us two clear options: He's a high-major kid, or Doyle doesn't understand what he's watching. Many would pick 'Option 2'

Christian Humphrey-Rembert from LaLumiere will visit ND on Saturday. Supposedly IU has been in contact with him.

Full story behind the paywall but this teaser quote from Rabby following Fears' weekend visit -- “It was great. Obviously we came back for a reason. We love Indiana."

I know that i have no rep here but the recent addition for VT was Plan B. They really pushed for a commitment from Clowney on the visit. Went with whomever popped first. After his visit this weekend to Bama he will be a Hoosier within 2 weeks. Family will weight all things but IU has been in the drivers seat for quite some time and nothing between now and his decision day should change that.

It’s Tricky. Will he Walk This Way to play for IU in My Adidas? Whatcha Gonna Do? WELCOME TO THE BOARD The RUN DMCer!

Spot on! Phillips Exeter! Vandy on a full ride! Geez HH, that kid is just. a. little. impressive! My daughter went to high school at American Heritage in Delray Florida on a theater/music/academic 75% off ride. Would have been $50k otherwise. When she got there, we discovered that the 90%+ of kids were there without a scholarship and paying full freight--mainly very wealthy families that wanted to say that their kid graduated from a private high school with Ivy league and D1 sports destinations. As with HH, my daughter is now on a more than 50% college ride for musical theater at Boston Conservatory. And the school can say to wealthy parents "look ... another of our kids got somewhere good." IMG is a little different because they are sports-centered only, but methinks it is supported by the wealthy golf, lacrosse, etc families who pay full freight. My son sings classical--a very small and hard to find skill for universities. Every single member of his freshman incoming class got at least 50% off college tuition, and he had four our five offers like that (sadly, including one he turned down from IU). Basketball is likely the small, niche program at IMG where every single kid gets an all but free ride and helps with the school's resume.

I don't see the basketball player tuition in that article (lists football players etc., how about that golf tuition?) but sounds about right, though would bet they get sizeable schollys, and it's an investment. My daughter went to Phillips Exeter (in NH), cost well over $50K a year but she had a 2/3 scholarship, and is now on a full-ride scholarship at Vanderbilt -- which is freaking amazing, and she wouldn't have that without the boarding school investment in her future. The stuff about the teacher is unfortunate, and it's going on all over the place, male and female teachers. The public high school where my two sons went has had at least 3 teachers charged in such scandals, male and female, within the past few years.

Guess I know what I'm doing at noon tomorrow! IUFH Welcomes No. 9 Maryland, Travels to Ball State Story Links INDIANA GAME NOTES (PDF) MARYLAND LIVE STATS BALL STATE LIVE STATS WATCH (MARYLAND) WATCH (BALL STATE) BLOOMINGTON, Ind. - After splitting weekend matchups with No. 2 Iowa and Richmond, IU continues its home stand on Friday against No. 9 Maryland before heading to Ball State for an in-state showdown on Sunday afternoon. ALL TIME SERIES Maryland has taken a firm control on the series between the two teams since entering the Big Ten Conference. IU has yet to win a match against the Terrapins in eight attempts. IU has dominated the series with Ball State over the years. The Hoosiers are 13-5 all time against the Cardinals and have won six in a row against its in-state rival. SCOUTING THE OPPONENTS Maryland heads to Bloomington after a mid-week victory over Princeton on Tuesday evening. The Terrapins dropped the conference opener against Penn State last weekend Ball State comes into the weekend on the heels of a road-conference victory over Central Michigan. The Cardinals continue MAC play on Friday afternoon against Ohio before welcoming IU on Sunday afternoon. LAST TIME: 2020-2021 SEASON IU spent the entire 2020-2021 spring season on the road in Head Coach Kayla Bashore's second year in charge. The Hoosiers finished the campaign 1-14 overall and in conference play. Then-junior Peyton Becker's overtime winner on April 15th at Michigan State gave IU its first victory of the season.

That's how I look at it, too. Overall, a weaker non-conference schedule than many years since the top teams aren't as strong but more balanced since the weakest teams aren't as weak. I think it's a good schedule for a team that hasn't been to the NCAA in years since it's a chance to get wins while also allowing for the adjustment process that will be needed considering the roster turnover and a new coaching staff including a head coach who has not coached a college game before. By the end of the season the SOS will be fine from conference play.

Another potential IU target. Wesley Tubbs III @__Tubbs3 a 6'7" SG/Wing from Charlotte, NC. https://www.thedailyhoosier.com/iu-basketball-recruiting-class-of-2023-names-to-know-shooting-guard-wesley-tubbs-iii/ 247 Rivals MaxPreps

I like this schedule for a couple of reasons. The pre conf "cupcakes" are not quite as cupcakey as they often are, most are reasonable games. The name brand opponents we have are not at the top of their cycles so while they are tests, they are not killer opponents early. The BIG will be tough no matter who we play, when or how many times.

IU - 31 WKU - 10

This is forever relevant and was unfortunately lost in the curb stomping we received there. Gary Barta still sucks.

Gary Barta can suck a nut. #justsayin

Yeah, going to make a change lol! IU 31 WKU 17

'What is dead may never die' - Luke Brown thread on BTB

I know nothing about this dude. But on the strength of this answer alone I’m rooting for him to succeed.

1st time I saw Graham was at the Marion County tournament at Southport his Sr yr. He makes a steal at half court and goes in alone. I’m expecting a conventional dunk. He goes off 2 feet, tomahawks it back with both hands until it’s touching his neck, gets his head within a couple of inches of the rim and freaking flushes it. No one had ever told me he was that explosive. It was shocking.

LOL. Yup. We've got some great staff with NE connections, so not really worried overall. While I absolutely want to recruit nationally, I want to lock down our state first and foremost. Woody has impressed me early. Would never have guess him grabbing two studs from FL...
