    I've got first hand knowledge that they are actually connected to a multiple players in the draft process, and CMW has met with them personally. TJD ans JHS

    (2022) - SG C. J. Gunn to INDIANA

    It’s a message board dude, it deals almost exclusively in conjecture and “hypotheticals.” And give it a rest man, the lottery number joke wasn’t funny the first time.

    The answer is no. But what this team will probably do is age him about 10 years due to the sky expectations combined with the fact that his highest rated recruit has coach-killer written all over him and his 2nd highest rated recruit has a father whom I have been reliably told is a problem.

    It's not normal for Fr-So improvement to be enough to leap frog a Sr that is trusted by HC and been in the system for going on 3 years though. I'd say it's a safe bet that, to begin the season, Gunn will not overtake Galloway's spot. Sent from my SM-G996U using Tapatalk

    This is pretty big news because from what I've read, Woody watched him play in a game last year that was far from one of his best and backed off aggressively recruiting him. No idea what brought about our renewed interest but clearly we've jumped back into his recruitment with both feet. And if after backing off to some extent and he still wants an OV -- that's pretty damn good news.

    I really like this young man and if he is putting in the work, I hope he fills that last spot in the starting lineup. He has the size and athleticism to be that guy that we need. We don't necessarily need a portal guy to make this team better. For whatever reason, we seem to discount the guys we already have.

    If Trey could go from around 6.5 ppg to about 9-10, I'd really like him. Trey finished the year with 6 straight games without reaching double figures. If you want to be a legit contender, I don't think your 2 guard can go 6 straight games without scoring at least 10 points...especially in March. One thing that's true, Trey is a hard worker. I have no doubt he will get better. But I also understand the need/want for IU to get a transfer at that spot.

    Fuller workout video. Ware’s 1 of those kids who makes the game look like it’s just not very hard.

    Given the nature of travel ball, this is a fairly astonishing stat profile. Side note: McNeeley’s mom is in the replies. Doubt she’s 40. Sometimes lose sight of how young these kids are.

    Apparently only Gunn is working out int the off-season right? Galloway will likely be a senior captain who is across the board a better player. You are playing crazy hypotheticals and that is your prerogative. Not sure I understand your incessant demand for lottery numbers, seems like the wrong board for that

    Fears might be alright with it, from what I gather he’s an ok kid, but I doubt it’s a coincidence that after the family visited Bloomington IU stopped recruiting him. A friend of mine in a position to know described dad, charitably, as “a handful.” Fears left Brad Beal Elite for Mokan without any kind of heads up and they weren’t sorry to see him go. Booker will be a fascinating follow. That kid has the all-time range of outcomes. And, yeah, I would take sophomore Ware over freshman Booker, no question.

    Everybody's a comedian! Yes, I made a mistake. Are you happy now? The 31 should have been in minutes played. He had zero blocks in that game. I corrected the numbers in my original post. Just hard to find good secretarial help these days. At the very least, I know that at least 1 person pays attention.

    Start time is 7pm Friday on ESPN+ (subscription required). If IU loses, they will play at 12pm or 1 pm Saturday and with a win it would be at 6pm or 7 pm. If they survive Saturday, the contests on Sunday would also be 12 pm or 1 pm and 6 pm or 7 pm. To get to the first game Sunday, the Hoosiers will need to win one of their first two and to get all the way to 7 pm without the earlier slot they would need to win both late games Friday and Saturday. An, if necessary, Monday game would be at 12pm or 7 pm Monday if the team from the losers’ bracket wins the late game Sunday. All contests are ticketed for ESPN+ right now but could move to regular TV later. Also these tentative times are subject to change if an ESPN channel picks up more games. Indiana got hit hard as West Virginia is a very strong two-seed. The opening game is far more difficult that most, but the chances of getting out of the Regional go up (although still a long shot) with a weak one seed in Kentucky and strong two and four seeds. Sinnard will start opener against Mountaineers and Kraft good to go it sounds like. As for why IU drew into Lexington instead of Terre Haute which many will wonder, three factors that went into play I believe: 1) Trying to keep as many teams as possible close to home and Iowa had to go to Indiana St. as the only Regional within driving distance for them meaning Hoosiers could not go there. Meanwhile, Indiana could still be close to Bloomington in Lexington. 2) Hawkeye coach Rick Heller started his career at ISU and the NCAA loves these types of storylines. 3) Logistically Terre Haute's Bob Warn Field is the smallest place to host a Regional at the bare NCAA minimum requirement of 2,500. The Sycamores have sold out every game of late this season on their own and placing IU there would have created an excess demand for tickets. By placing two squads from farther away there, ticket demand is more likely to meet supply. Meanwhile, Proud Park in Lexington is huge at 5,000 and can easily meet the demand of three close-by fan bases. Here is the full bracket: https://www.ncaa.com/brackets/baseball/d1/2023

    Gunn has a lot of good qualities. Let’s hope he has a great off-season and comes back as a big value add.
