Yes, and I have also watched IUFB get waxed by the likes of Navy, Bowling Green, and Ball St. I love the optimism...I really do, but I need to see more than a stronger showing against FIU, Virginia, and Ball St. to believe this team has truly turned a corner.

Soooo guessing you are new to IU football fandom?

Indiana 20 MSU 17

Apologies if I missed it, but did we have any football visitors confirmed on campus for the game?

IU 35 BSU 24

Fun fact, Armaan's Cathedral squad is set to face Zionsville in the Forum Tipoff Classic, Zionsville is led by purdue commit Isaiah Thompson, the younger brother of purdue grad PJ Thompson. I believe this is the 6:30 tip, leading to the TJD v. Keion game at 8:30. I may have to make my way back up, it should be a great day of hoops!

IU 24 UVA 17

Great to hear, I was curious what role, if any, Coach Delaney has had throughout the recruitment process for the three players.

Not to divert the thread from Franklin, but do we know Armaan's relationship with TJD or Keion? Good, Bad, or Non-Existent?

Didn't see this posted, if there is already a thread please feel free to merge. https://247sports.com/Player/Jordan-Jakes-46050941/ Decent list of offers for him as well - Michigan State, UNC, Iowa State and Georgia Tech IZ’®‏ @iamjordanjakes FollowFollow @iamjordanjakes More They thought I wouldn’t make it this far...

I could see Georgetown sneaking into the Final 6 as well. Doubt they are a serious threat, but may be worth an OV.

I believe the 20-11 record is built from % chance of winning not the absolute Win/Loss, e.g. if we are projected to win 3 games by a 55% margin his calculation may show our record as 2-1 vs 3-0. Math is weird.

Add Central Arkansas at Assembly Hall on December 19th to the schedule. The Bears will then hit the road for three big matchups at three storied venues, starting with a return trip to New Mexico's The Pit on Sunday, Dec. 16, followed by Indiana's Assembly Hall on Wednesday, Dec. 19 and Gallagher-Iba Arena at Oklahoma State on Friday, Dec. 21. "I think of everyone we're playing, Indiana will be the best team,' said Pennell. "Because (head coach) Archie Miller has had a year there, and they signed a Top 10 guard in this class that's really good. He's a one-and-done type kid. That program is definitely not in shambles. That will be a very, very difficult game. http://www.ucasports.com/news/2018/8/9/mens-basketball-bears-to-face-sec-foe-in-season-opener.aspx

Excuse me?

If distance to home is a concern, I am sure we could schedule an extra road trip to Western Illinois (1 hr 29 min for the family). Make it happen Bill Comar!

I wouldn't be surprised to see Ohio St.'s inclusion. I'll go with Indiana, Michigan, and Ohio St.

I dunno, that would mean they would have to take a MEAC or SWAC team off the Non-Con schedule. Could be risky.

This is where I am at as well. All three of the outcomes (commit to IU, commit to UM, no decision for the foreseeable future) are liberating for the staff...obviously I would love for Carton to commit, but if he doesn't the staff can redirect resources to other top targets during a super competitive July open period.

Interesting. Chris, are you expecting a ~4 man class? Potentially something like this... 1) TJD 2) Newman/Franklin...first come, first serve 3) Lead Ball Handler (Carton, Lewis, etc.) 4) Big Wing/Post (Watford, Hurt, Stewart, etc.)

It goes without saying, but CAM can't take 'em all (doubt he would ever want to...). I won't lose sleep with Pork Chop recruiting the Gillis's, Isaiah Thompson's, Eric Hunter's of the world while CAM is pulling in the likes of Damezi Anderson, Rob Phinisee, and Romeo.

Verbal Commits, linked below, has Illinois at three open grants for next season. This doesn't reflect Samba Kane's eligibility which is still in question. They could realistically start the year off with 9 scholarship players with very little height. If they can become a middle of the pack B1G team it will be due to their guard play with Frazier, Dosunmu, Williams, and Jordan (not a bad guard rotation). https://www.verbalcommits.com/schools/illinois

Love seeing the inclusion of the '21 class (especially Hopf), any chance Blackhawk Christian (Furst) replaces Ft. Wayne North?

Lucel - Do you see any other recruits close to making a decision? The talent infusion since CTA came on board is evident, hoping it translates on the field sooner than later.
