    2017 April Evaluation Period

    Good stuff. Hope to be around this weekend but draft being in Philly sorta has me split up. Props to CCG, OF, USPS and others for keeping the updates coming. One thing I'm not sure I've not talked about, and maybe this has been discussed, is how the new staff is going to approach this summer with recruiting. So, generally, a staff spends the HS season scouting, identifying, and recruiting. April comes and they hone in on those they identified and evaluate in April while also identifying/evaluating new prospects (AAU, they can see tons of kids at one sitting). Then July comes and you begin to see who the staff is going to pursue heavily, they aim to line up fall visits, and off they go. Obviously, the one part missing for this staff is the HS season recruiting (scouting,evals,relationship building, identifying etc.) as there isn't much carryover from Dayton prospects to IU. Sure, there are a few, and Archie has been on them. So IU is behind in that sense. Basically, I'd expect this July to be a little wider open than you'll see in the future with this staff as they still look to find who they want/who wants them. Also, if there has been concern over the number of offers Archie is giving out...I don't anticipate that being a thing going forward either. The class imbalance was created by the previous staff and IU potentially needs to fill a number of roster spots next year. That isn't something that is going to be fixed overnight.
  2. Agreed, but it's possible whereas it was not w the previous staff

    (2017) PG McKinley Wright to Colorado

    I really don't see how you take Mckinley and Durham given the guards on the roster. Unless there is an upcoming transfer...and even then.

  18. Trust me when I say I'm rooting against myself. In his defense, how does he fit in Archie's system? idk.
  19. Moore is a beast. Living in Philly, they have plenty of players to rave about but Moore is getting attention. Went to see him and love his game. Afraid he isn't hanging around from what I've been told

  21. Agreed, worth a shot given the upside.
