Interesting. As they say, recruiting is fluid

Good for Romeo. Anyone else see him flash the candy stripes inside his coat?

I’m just not that high on White. Think he’ll be a role player. And Herro is mainly a shooter. You can get that at the end of the first and into the second. I don’t see him creating his own shot at all in the league

Oh I agree. He needs seasoning and his shot still needs improvement. But his talent/ceiling is above all of those listed IMO

Man some of this guys projected ahead of Romeo..I just don’t see it. Coby White is extremely overrated. Jaxon Hayes? PJ Washington? Tyler Herro? Alexander-Walker? All significantly less talented IMO. Oh well

In 21 years of living here he still hasn’t grasped it? I’d have to question his intelligence if this were the case. It’s like living in Europe and being oblivious to soccer. I’m not trying to bash you at all, but all I’ve seen so far in defense of Mcrobbie is “he’s not that bad”, which is a bad case to make when there are PLENTY of university presidents out there that “get” what Mcrobbie doesn’t. He’s simply not doing his job as he should.

All while our academic ranking continues to decline. So what, exactly, has Mcrobbie helped the school with since he’s been here besides a few buildings? Terrible president, IMO. Any other president with a pulse could do what he’s been doing. I want better for my alma mater.

Would love to have him, but Snow had a writeup today that said it’s a long shot for him to play in college. Sounds like going pro in some capacity is the likely option.

He’ll be moving up in the new rankings because of his play this summer, so not a true +200 kid

How is it Crean-Esque? This guy is pretty good and in the top 150. I haven’t seen us offering guys outside the top 200, let alone outside the realm of a D1 player like Crean did

Our recruiting philosophy is just fine. TJD, Armaan, Rob, Jerome, etc. all fit what an Indiana player is and should be. We have offers out to Leal, Galloway, Davis, Cross, etc. that embody what an Indiana player should be. Archie knows what he is doing. Good luck fielding a competitive team of we’re going to go after players that just want to be here. We’d be full of D2 and D3 players that wouldn’t get a sniff anywhere else in D1. The landscape has changed. Kids don’t grow up wanting to go to IU much anymore. You have to battle with the best to be the best. Of course Watford did what was best for him. Just because he went to LSU doesn’t mean he wouldn’t have embodied what an IU player is if he came here. You have no idea what his reasons were for, Maybe he wanted to stay closer to home? Every kid does what is best for them. Saying this is the only thread you’re interested in tells me all I need to know and that you aren’t really an IU fan. You’re a Luke brown fan. If his play is doing the talking, why hasn’t he heard a word from Archie yet? Why are they prioritizing other players? Why is he consistently talked about as a low D1 type of player? Shouldnt you be advocating for players like Luke Goode, Colson Montgomery, Trey Kaufman, etc. who all embody what an Indiana player is and who actually have IU interest?

Lol

Look I get it, you’re probably part of his family or a family friend. But you’re not going to gain him fans by constantly bringing his name up on message boards. As far as I know, this is the only thread you post in. I also see zero correlation between Trendon going to LSU and us being excited for Luke Brown. Let the kid’s play do the talking. Right now he isn’t on our radar and there are other kids to be much more excited about

Just the nature of message boards anymore. The social media age has produced instant gratification. When it isn’t met, people riot. I don’t see it getting any better.

I believe we have 2 spots open right now and I don’t see us adding anyone else. 2 leaving + 2 seniors (maybe a transfer) gives us 4-5

I think we’re going to have 4 schollies, potentially 5 with a transfer, for 2020. Both of these offers make sense in my opinion

I think these guys can play 2-3 and Galloway may be able to play the 4 at times with his defensive presence.

I wasn’t really high on Galloway but he’s really upped his play as of late. Would be great to snag both of these guys!

Yessss love this. Also believe that Archie knows where we stand in 2019 and we’re done there. 4 schollies to hand out for 2020, so makes a lot of sense here.

Great pickup. What are the odds he goes somewhere else and when is signing day? Lol

Seems to be the case with both Watford and Quinones. Appears to be a long shot for both, but you never know. I’m hoping that this leads to an offer for Leal this weekend or during his in-home Monday. We’ll have 4 rides for the 2020 class with no other freshmen additions. We would be really stupid not to take Leal if it shakes out that way.

Must have missed that he was conducting the visit. Thanks for the info

I’m not really upset, just a little baffled that nobody seemingly wants to be here. I’m really starting to think Romeo is being used as a negative against Archie, as fair or unfair as that is.

Pretty amazing that we can’t get a SG. There’s an abundance of minutes there for anyone that can shoot

Shocked If it isn’t UNC. Keeling is supposed to visit there tomorrow I believe. Probably wants to be the one to jump first
