Walking Boot of Doom

I’d much rather watch Aaron Gordon and Zach Lavine, two unreal dunkers, compete than the stars. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

Yeah none of these kids can even sign until the fall so...

Archie’s comments on the commitment tell you all you need to know. Paraphrasing, but, “we’re excited to have him and to help him reach his goal of playing at the next level.” Everyone knows this is a one year deal unless something goes wrong. Enviado desde mi iPhone utilizando BtownBanners

Only wasted if that scholarship was going to someone else more valuable. People seem to overlook that aspect of this commitment. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

99.9% chance yup! You don’t get hired to start playing the game outta no where. You establish a reputation first, and then the boss hires you. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

I’m assigning a .1% likelihood that Kenny Johnson is actually clean. Enviado desde mi iPhone utilizando BtownBanners

Projected top 5 pick already. If that holds true, the odds of him staying a second year for the slim chances of winning a national championship and playing with some talented freshman instead of playing with the most talented players in the world in the NBA would seem incredibly low to me. To the point where it wouldn’t even feel worth while discussing so as not to get your hopes even the slightest bit up. Enviado desde mi iPhone utilizando BtownBanners

They truly suffered "The Red Devils endured three consecutive seasons under Rick Wedlow before his resignation on March 14."

That was thorough. I think a vast majority of the LeBron hate can be explained by the Pacer fandom of this forum. Enviado desde mi iPhone utilizando BtownBanners

He’s already projected as a top 5 pick. It’s extremely far fetched. Just not impossible. Highly highly improbable. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

Pretty cool for Freddie. Met him once, seemed like a real good dude. Worked his butt off and went from JuCo to a major program and got his degree. Nice work! Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners

Why are you all so angry? Can't wait for November.

They’re gonna do it the only way they know how - winning basketball games. Don’t worry, it’ll unite the community and help them forget their problems. Fixes everything. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

Hope he has an awesome season! Seemed like a great kid who made a mistake and was surrounded by bad influences.

He was waiting for Evan Fitzner to commit.

So we have not heard about Juwan getting an invite to the combine. Assuming he's not invited at this point?

That'd be very very good.

I don't think it's a laughing matter - he's doing a great job. They're definitely a threat, IMO.

Guys, a big who can shoot? Anyone we add at this point is going to be asked to contribute around 8-12 minutes a game max. We already have an 8-9 man rotation set. This is gravy. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners

No problem. If you just look at the average recruit ranking, you can get a good idea as well. Or just the break down of 5 and 4 starts in a class. Duke has four 5 stars and UK has three 5 stars and one 4 star - so they seem to be clearly "better" classes in the rankings even if we add another 4 start to our mix.

Not exactly accurate. It reduces the impact that each individual recruit has on the overall rating of the class. Can't do it since Race isn't part of their 2018 rankings, but I think it would possibly give us a top 3 class. Not as simple as taking the 17.7 you saw and adding it though.

Here’s a fun comment from the article: “I don't get the hype, well, I do but Langford is way over-rated. I doubt he is one and done. Not really sure why he didn’t choose Kentucky. Could it be that Cal coached him in the USA U-19 team along with Carsen, and Romeo was: meh…. And then there’s the "Ball Effect", i.e., parents that know better than coaches. Maybe a little of that here as well. I doubt Painter actually wanted Langford, seriously. "purdue guy" and all that—which I agree with, personally. So, no, I couldn’t care less about Langford. I will enjoy seeing us have our way again this year. Posted by boilerbubba on May 1, 2018 | 6:25 AM” Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

I believe the specific wording of that statement. But not that someone in the know didn’t inform the Indiana staff. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

Ooo let's not do that again.
