    HoosierCoop reacted to CalebMartinIUB2017 in (2016) C Thon Maker   
    I think it's been the fad the past few years to build super teams of one-and-dones down at UK.  It just doesn't have the same appeal to kids anymore. Kids want to make their mark on a program, not blend in, even if it is for only a year. That's why I think UK might be struggling this year. We'll see what happens in the coming seasons. (Having said all that, they will probably still have the #1 recruiting class, but no where near as good as the past 5, 6 years)

    I cannot thank the power that be enough that we have RoJo instead of that Whinehead or I mean Whitehead.
     
    He would have buried this team last year.

    Just don't go to freaking UK....
     
    I love that they are whiffing on the things they used to hand their straw hats on.
     
    Diallo was another slap to their recruiting theory.

    HoosierCoop reacted to IU Hoosier41 in Crean Recruitment in the Midwest?   
    Ideally, I'd love to recruit the Midwest to produce our 4 year players.

    I'd like to recruit nationally to bring in 1 player in each class that is your 1-2 year player and have them learn form the other Midwest kids.

    I'm 100% biased, but growing up in Indiana and experiencing basketball there, there is just something about it.

    For reference: I moved to Richmond, VA in Decemeber. Started playing pickup basketball at the gym in January and I'm now the "sharpshooter." I'm that guy you don't leave open because I'll hit the shot... In Indiana when I would play I was a decent shooter, here they consider me automatic lol.

    "Where'd you learn to shoot like that?"

    "Grew up in Indiana"

    "Ahh shit, no wonder."

    Nobody shoots it like Indiana players. It's scary how different the games are out here. People still view Indiana as the basketball state. At least these Virginians im playing with now do :)

    UNLV could be interesting with Zimmerman and Goodluck.  Not sure about their guard play.

    What happened to the Eron Gordon recruitment that IU fell off of his priority list?
     
    He now has:  Butler, Notre Dame, and Arizona State.

    Good luck with the NBA D'Angelo Russell. Now I will not have to watch him throw his head back violently every time he gets touched.

    BtownBanners was founded on SWAGGER. (Really it was Twitter Swagger with some brilliant tweets that got retweeted a whole hell of a lot and led to a massive following, but swagger none the less!)

    It would be an added dimension that I don't think opposition could handle or react to.  It would definitely open up other possibilities for TB because they would have to come out and guard that pull-up shot.

    There is a difference between having Swagger and being Cocky.
     
    Swagger = showing determination in your skill and backing it up with performance. (i.e. Vic)
     
    Cocky = making others perceive that you have skill and using propaganda instead of performance (i.e. Andrew Harrison or any UK player)
     
    In this instance I take Swagger any day
