Talking about South Carolina's AD saying "He gets what is means to be part of a team.... You've got to have people who have an idea of what it takes to be successful."

While technically true this season that is on Crean more than on Miller.... It is because Crean left us in this situation... but under normal circumstances in Archie's world we would possibly have only been using 11 scholarships last season, then OG leaves and we bring in 3 more.... and if JBJ or TB leave then we roll this season with 11/12 scholarships again. Never need to have a situation like we will have next year with possibly 7/8 open positions we need to try to fill. Never have a situation where we have to "force" somebody out for the next shiny recruit. Always leaves room for somebody that happens to fall in our lap or fixes a need via grad transfers etc...

Technically 3 have to give up their scholarships... Including OG who is giving his up for the opportunity to go Pro... Comment was mostly said in jest as Recker had just said nobody is giving up their scholarship without adding any context so my reply that 3 are is technically true but sounds much different without context such as the OG context above.

LOL Yea I knew what he meant... just couldn't resist giving him a little ribbing... (Just messing with you Recker no ill will ) I actually assumed he meant nobody would give it up and play as a Walk-On or just walk away from the game now that they have a degree.

Actually yes 3 people are!

This should really be a Shirt!!!!!

I know he didn't choose the Hoosiers but my son got one of Malik Williams shoes and got it signed

only per the judges... he dominated the contest... the guy that won did the free throw line dunk from at least 2 full steps inside the free throw line... That dunk sucks when nobody ever actually jumps from the line.

I think he is saying Moore doesn't want to redshirt... so if CAM pushed the redshirt then Moore decides on his own to not attend IU. Makes it look like CAM really wanted him and didn't push him out nor have to get rid of somebody else already on scholarship.

Just read an article about the Derby Classic that he is playing in this weekend and his quote was that he reaffirmed his commitment to IU.... I hadn't heard anything about him and had just assumed no news was good news as far as him not asking out of LOI etc... but this is confirmation which is better than my assumption!!!! :) Welcome Justin and lets see you do your thing this weekend!

no... Just because they declare doesn't mean they will ever get feedback. But they have to declare to be eligible to receive feedback. NBA teams can invite any declared player in for a meeting but don't have to, and only a select few are invited to the combine. But the NBA team can't even invite a player if they don't declare. To compare this to corporate America. I currently have an open position in my office, I can invite any applicant for an interview but I'm definitely not inviting them all... I'm also not going to interview somebody that never even applied.

I feel like Hartman it's going to be starting even if we don't lose them. Newkirk/Green JBJ/RoJo Hartman Morgan/Davis Bryant

In that case I got 16 guys on scholarship that are in category 1. The thing is they ALL must know their role on the team, and if it is #10-16 then they should not expect playing time but better be ready to work their tail off in practice to help the team. With all that being said we obviously can't keep all 16..... so I think this thread is interesting in that it gives a snip of how our fan-base feels this should be rectified... even if CAM goes a different route... I find it interesting how different my list is from the majority of others on here.... and I find it interesting to follow how CAM will fix it.

1 De'Ron Davis 2 Juwan 3 Devonte Green 4 Colin Hartman 5 OG 6 ROJO 7 JBJ 8 TB 9 McSwain 10 Newkirk 11 CuJo 12 Priller 13 Grant Gelon 1 Justin Smith 2 Al Durham 3 Clifton Moore

I believe it guarantees a scholarship but not necessarily an athletic scholarship... they can't play but they could still finish their degree I believe under some other scholarship situation.

no offense but isn't your statement purely hypothetical???? Unless you know much more than I do... I think it is very possible we have 1... I wouldn't at all be surprised if we don't but wouldn't be surprised with 1 either

WHOA!!!! Who does that? ;)

I think we are still 1 over...? But I may be incorrect... we used all 13 scholarships last year, haven't officially lost anybody.... and have 1 new freshman still signed/commited

Sexton has looked amazing

can find the whole thing on ITH.. for anybody interested in watching it.

Any links to watch this now? Got busy and missed it live

I had previously written Stevens off as a no chance... but with new things going on who knows.??? I mean he always said he wouldn't consider the IU job if there was a coach there... well now there is not does that change his mind... At 1 time it was his dream job... is it still? He has to realize this may very well be his ONLY chance to make that dream come true... Stevens is 40 now which is young, but if we do hit a homerun (either BD immediately or some up an comer that turns into a GREAT 1) they could potentially be here for 15-20 years.... at that point Stevens is 60 and even if we did have an opening would we go for somebody that old (no matter how good).

Princeton gave that game away... Horrible coaching down the stretch.... Why try a cross-court in bounds pass, not once but twice in a row.... coming out of a timeout the first time.. Then while down 1 pulling a 3... drive the lane make them defend or foul....

Sounds to me as if he wants to keep the Alumni happy.... but that they are not realistically going to be offered the position.... I LIKE the sound of that!!!

I honestly got a little emotional (Happy emotional) when I read the news.... then ran around my workplace telling ever Hoosier fan and really telling the 1 UK guy that has been all over "Crean is gonna be there for 10 more years" guy.... So much happiness
