I hope so, we need a good in-state kid that wants to play for IU, then sprinkle a little Romeo in the mix, the potential will soar!

I just checked that as well, I don't think they know how to handle Archie at IU yet! Who's next, so far Christmas is turning out pretty well.

Landed Race Thompson, Aaron Henry could commit at any second, and sounds like we are Top 2 for Romeo.

I'm not just banking my opinion that he has talked about staying close to home.

If true then it looks like its down to Prostitute U and us, hopefully the whole scandal pushes him right to us!

If that's the case then cool. Anyone know if there is any truth to the eligibility questions that popped up last week?

Just speculation, but maybe Archie has found some real confidence that Green, Cujo, and A1 will be more than capable of handling the Point. I mean, Archie was a PG and maybe all it took was someone with the know how and experience to bring them up a few levels. I think that kind of makes sense with the "focus" on wings and big guys over the past few weeks.

Welcome to the Hoosier Nation, Race! Didn't see the re-class coming, but excited to see a Top 100 recruit getting to come in a year early as a Redshirt and gain a wealth of knowledge and experience! This could end up being a really good thing.

Lol, honestly since probably since Zeller, may Yogi, recruiting has not be this much fun. And to be honest, I'm not worried about the names or the stars, I'm just ecstatic that we are not unloading the shotgun anymore and taking a seemingly calculated, well thought out approach to recruiting this year. Its refreshing to not take bets on how many offers we will have and how many April's/Jerkins we end up with eating up scholly's on someone who will never play any meaningful minutes. No matter the names or stars beside them I believe we are set to get some players with good fundamentals, good ethics, and who play for IU not at IU

Man this thread and all of the info pouring out today has me like a kid waiting on his parents to get their a$$ out of bed on Christmas morning to open all the goodies that Santa left. Which one will we get to open first, I am soo excited.

I work with someone who's son goes to school with Romeo. I've heard the same that his parents or at least one is a Hoosier fan and that the mother has never been impress with Cal since his recruiting schtick when they met.

What I wouldn't give for pUKe to have a season where their prodigal freshman didn't live up to expectation and become 1 and dones, sitting at the end of the following season stuck with a full roster and have 5 or 6 sign letter of intents for the next season!

Players seem pretty up beat and DD looks much better!

Just wanted to add a thread that covers all the big news around NCAA of who is declaring or transferring.

Well looks like the day has come, although about 2 weeks earlier than expected. Still early but she will arrive today or tonight.

She will have her first IU outfit on tomorrow!

Well Ms. Emma Ann made her appearance about 7:30 pm 6lb 12oz. She is healthy but having some minor respiratory issues so I don't have any pics yet. Thanks for all of the good wishes. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

Here is the release from the NCAA: http://www.ncaa.org/about/resources/media-center/news/former-louisville-operations-director-acted-unethically-head-coach-failed-monitor In regards to the scholly's: A reduction in men’s basketball scholarships by two during the 2016-17 year (self-imposed by the university). Additionally, the university must reduce men’s basketball scholarships by four over the probation period. The university may take the reductions during any year of that period.

Man, just read Eric Crawford's tweet "I think you could title this passage from the final infractions report on Louisville basketball: "Why the NCAA is so ticked off"" All I can say is damn and why are those coaches not in jail for paying for hookers for a 16yo and 2 17 yos!

According to the ESPN article, the NCAA accepted the self imposed post season ban, but will face additional scholarship reductions and recruiting restrictions. They already have two 2018 recruits committed.

From ESPN looks like they are loosing scholly's as well. "In addition, the Cardinals will face scholarship reductions and recruiting restrictions and the forfeiture of any money received though conference revenue sharing from the 2012-15 NCAA tournaments."
