  1. That'd be great. Get Dusty out of the B1G. Also, maybe we can pry him more easily from an out of conference foe? (I don't know about the last part ha ha. But it would be great to get him out of Michigan.)
  2. Seeing UNC take basketball seriously makes me jealous. Nothing against DD specifically. More musing about the last 25ish years.
  3. Seems, based on stats, things didn't work out for him at VT. Any insight as whether his game isn't a fit for high major ball, or if something else didn't click with the Hokies?
  4. Interesting. Where'd you hear this?
  5. Really? I don't know him. Do tell.
  6. Everyone has the will to win. Not everyone has the will to prepare to win.
  7. I think its dangerous to have two freshmen as your backups. I'd prefer another experienced player or two in the backcourt before relaying on PAM and a player like Quentin. Also I wouldn't so no to Haralson, but he doesn't make m eyes dilate. I'd prefer a better shooter.
  8. We, and many high major programs, know some of our targets. Backchanneling begins as early as the new year when kids are unhappy enough. There are agent who work diligently for their clients. And kids--and their agents--have preexisting relationships with coaches from the recruiting process. Coaches backchannel through high school and aau coaches. New targets emerge for sure. You won't necessarily get the targets you know of early. But things are becoming clear behind the scenes.
  9. Pics or it didn't happen. Ha ha I don't have espn+
  10. I don't know that IU was a top 10 - 15 resource program in the past year. That's been thrown around a lot about IU basketball since the NIL era began. In some years that was accurate, but not in all years. Certainly IU had better resources than our record shows though.
  11. I don't think CDD should be fired, but this team is not worthy of my time and money. I'm curious to learn what can be done in the transfer portal this spring. CDD can coach. He proved it at two previous stops. This roster was very poorly constructed, but with a full stable of assistant coaches here (which wasn't the case last spring) and better commitment to NIL perhaps we'll have a more pleasing product to enjoy next season. If IU isn't remarkably better next year CDD is toast (whether he's fired or not), because it's been proven my multiple coaches across different conferences that during the portal era it doesn't take 3-4 years to build a winner.
  12. Seems there are at least 20 schools who claim to be top 10 in NIL. This fall I heard a lot top 15 talk from IU sources. At some point we're talking a couple bucks here and there that separates the 15th from the 16th biggest spender, and so on. I think college athletics and the various sources who report things like top 10, 15, 20, etc. need to be taken with a grain of salt. It's very difficult to know precisely how much money the school you are covering is spending let alone 20 others. IU may have spent poorly, but then again maybe IU didn't have the funds to be top 10 like the athletic department thought it would last spring.
  13. I think he got some time against the Utes. Unless he reaggravated last night, he may be in Bloomington with the team.
