UK already has a top15 PG and CG committed and a top 40 SF. Which leads to the question of if they will even offer and will he want to go there with a possibly log jam. However at the same time if he comes here he’ll be battling for PT with a sophomore PG who we assume will log a ton of minutes as a freshman and a senior CG in Green.

CWat is the one that took #2 from Roth. Matt wore #2 to honor a friend who had passed away I believe. His normal number was 30.

If Saturday is the last visit the staff can do, I bet many current players would be attending the State Championship at Bankers Life. I believe players have done that in the past and if Romeo and Damezi are in the title game, could definitely see a big group of them attending. Would be cool if Oladipo attended too, but very doubtful. He has a home game Friday night but then play Sunday evening in Miami.

I think people can hold off on the constant refresh. Didn't Chris007 say something about November 13th? I believe Garland mentioned he will be committing during the signing period.

What he retweeted was a video of a guy talking about trusting God.

What'd he say?

I feel like this keeps getting brought up in most of the active threads, what to do with the remaining scholarships. There seems to be a lot of misconceptions that if we take 2 more scholarships for the 2018 Class we will be over signed. See below, that is not the case. Personally, I think for 2018 we should try to get Romeo (obviously) who will be gone after one year so there will still be that scholarship available for 2019. Then, I think we try to get a top guy like Garland. If we don't get those guys, we bank them for 2019 where we sit well with many top 50 players.

That vertical is what i am most excited about. We can be skeptical because Crean used to always pump those numbers too, but with how much weight he lost and thinner he looks, could definitely see it being that much. Way too many times last year I wanted De'Ron to through down a powerful dunk when he had the chance, but he would more often than not just lay it in. He obviously had many injuries, but I am excited to see those be dunks this year.

Idk how this conversation has made it this far without this video being posted. "We need more dogs"

Has anyone been able to find the game film of this past year's Dayton/Wichita St game from the NCAA. That was some great defense in that game and although Archie's team lost, would be fun to watch to see what we have to look forward to.

anyone have a video of this interview on ESPNU?

I am in no way a Gelon supporter. I don't think he should have ever been offered a scholarship at IU. However, keeping him isn't the worst thing. Like Archie said previously about using all 13 scholarships, someone isn't going to be happy. Maybe Grant knows and accepts his role and can develop into a role player as a Junior or Senior, maybe he can eventually turn into something similar to Hartman. Remember when many wanted him "Creaned" after his Fresh or Soph season, now we are rejoicing he's coming back. Let's give him time to develop and bulk up. I think we are accustomed to wanting guys to come in as Freshman and start delivering right away. During the Crean tenure we had some many transfers that we had few players that we had for 4 years and were able to see develop over time and see them start contributing.

I believe he de-committed from NIU right before the season started.

Hearing interest is starting to pick up. Rivals has IU as "High" Interest. Anyone else hearing anything here?

Heard we might have started recruiting this guy out of IC Catholic. Anyone hear more about our coaches reaching out? Pretty impressive highlights. Also, an All-State Track runner. https://www.hudl.com/video/3/2667465/58404ac3dfd8b91c580dc890

Any reason for a Tuesday visit?

Any update on his MRI?

It's definitely good in terms of financial value, but I would much rather have games on ESPN and ESPN2 than FS1. Also, games on ESPN get much more of a national attention especially to recruits. Just feel I hardly ever just turn on FS1 bc its such a high/random number channel, only truly turn it on when I specifically know something is on there. I know its not a big deal, just my two cents.

One of the problems that bothers me is how he keeps putting Bryant back in the first half with two fouls. I understand sometimes if the other team is making a big run at you having to put Bryant back in to get some offense going through the post. But last night he had Bryant in with two fouls then we went up 16 with 6 minutes left and he kept him in there. Bryant proceeded to give up a couple easy baskets trying not to pick up a foul, but Crean should have pulled him and not risked it at all.
