Lol right as the stream ended, "I gotta workout, we gotta get this over with." That's what I like to hear.

I have to remind myself my sense of humor isn't well known here yet so I gotta be a little more clear about it.

Hahaha I was wondering if that was it. I was about to tell you to find new sources.

Sorry Crimson hahaha... you're right at least 7'0, maybe 7'3 or so

Joking. Players always magically grow 2 inches when they commit here.

Good joke.

DJ White on steroids!
By the way that's just a flattering comparison not an implication that he is using performance enhancing substances.
Don't want anyone getting their panties in a wad.

This is very true. Some will try to credit McClain but Crean also really went to work here.
 
Credit where credit's due.

A State Champion winner and most sought after state recruit since Chauncey Billups.

Not trying to start anything but Coach Crean and the staff deserves a lot of credit for putting in the work and the time here. It paid off! Good to see us get some return on the large recruiting budget!

Davis is the ONE many of us felt we had to get to cement a solid recruiting class.  Now we can work on moving the class from very good to stinkin" awesome! The thoughts of him teaming up with a sophomore Bryant on the front line=PUNISHING! Purdue will soon be getting some of their own medicine.

Adidas Gauntlet Orlando: (May 23rd-26th, 2014) He has a great touch, soft hands and a great feel for playing the game. He can score on all three levels on the floor. He has a punishing body and knows how to use it on the low block. He can finish with either hand around the rim. Rebounds the ball well on both ends and runs the court well for a player his size. Overall, he is the total package on both ends of floor.

NBA Top 100 Camp: (June 18th-21st, 2014) The 6-foot-8 power forward continues to validate our high ranking of him. He was abusing defending post players with his versatility on the floor, scoring from the post all the way out to the three-point line. He ran the floor extremely well and finished a few plays with big dunks.

  ✔@jeffborzello With De'Ron Davis in the fold, Indiana now has the No. 15-ranked recruiting class in the country. Joins ESPN 100 Curtis Jones, Grant Gelon.

In all likelihood, the De'Ron Davis commit means that in the 2016 2017 season the Indiana Hoosiers will have a front corner of Thomas Bryant and De'Ron Davis. This is without question the best frontcourt that Tom Crean has had his disposal since he took the reins for the Hoosiers.

Now, with Bryant and Davis, doesn't this make Brown and even Alkins want to sign a NLI with the Hoosiers. Think about a 2016 class with Brown and Alkins and I'm not talking scholarship numbers, it would provide a tremendous class with little to no drop off. We would be reloading rather than rebuilding as they like to say. Reloading is what needs to be the norm. Strong showing this year and strong recruiting class keeps the momentum in our favor. Note to players, staff and fans alike: lockdown and win!
