Class of '66 Old Fart

Maybe it's in anticipation of his next police encounter? LOL

Durham has been invited to Chris Paul's summer camp. http://indiana.247sports.com/Bolt/Durham-invited-to-Chris-Paul-Camp-45217418

A big congrats to Coach Jake Thelen for being named a GA for @IndianaMBB. @JThelen12 was a great asset to our program & has a bright future! Thelen has been an Ass't. Coach for St. Xavier High School in Louisville, KY.

Jon Rothstein Verified account ‏@JonRothstein Illinois big man Leron Black has been suspended for the first six games of next season, per release.

From Eric Bossi: Missouri women’s assistant Michael Porter Sr. tells me that he has accepted a position as an assistant coach at Washington w/Lorenzo Romar. Probably not a high probability that Jr. will be wearing candystripes.

This tweet from Wednesday: 2017 SG Andrew Platek @PlatekFor3 visits Indiana unofficially on Friday. Visited a bunch of Ivys last week.

Coach Sleaze & Hooker U - 2017 Malik Williams now has an offer from Rick Pitino and the University of Louisville.

Saw the Rabby tweet about 10 min. after my post. Normal healing time for such an injury? Will we second guess the decision not to have surgery? Need him fully healthy when he arrives on campus for summer workouts and conditioning.

Aw, you took all the fun out of it but yes, I'm sure that's what was meant.

I hope he has a career night against U of M and -0- points and 10 TO's against us!

The fact there's been no news that I'm aware of doesn't give me a good feeling.

Providence is the latest to offer 2017 Oak Hill PG Matt Coleman.

Or it bounced!

Very true. While I don't get too hyped over the rankings, history is clear that the higher ranked kids, overall, will out-perform the 4's and 3's as you pointed out with exceptions at both ends of the spectrum. A roster built solely on 3's and a couple of 4's won't hang another banner in AH.

Not from me you won't! I try not to get too overly hyped on the rankings. Some 3's will blossom; some 5's will tank; some rankings are totally self-serving by the parties doing the ranking. Just get me coachable kids who want to play for Indiana and will work the extra hours in the gym to get better even if they're already considered a 5-star recruit.

ROFL

And the winner is: TCU

lair Sanderson ‏@BlairRIVALS Hawkeyes land 2016 guard Maishe Dailey. [3-star 6'6" from Beachwood, OH]

He did indeed score a perfect 36 on the math portion of the ACT. http://www.courierpress.com/sports/high-school/engelhardt-nunge-seeks-another-exponential-leap-31947ac4-135e-5fc6-e053-0100007f29b8-377889491.html Couple of other facts from the article: Averaged 19.3 points, 11.4 rebounds and 3.7 blocks in leading Castle to a 19-6 record this past season. Considered a 3-star recruit. Offers received to date: Vandy, Iowa, Clemson, Toledo, Evansville, Vermont and Ball State. Stanford has been in contact as a former ass't. at Vandy now has the same position at Stanford.

Under Armour Assist Leaders: - Cameron Mack: 7.9 Isaiah Washington: 5.8 Prentiss Hubb: 5.5 Paul Scruggs: 5.5

Under Armour Scoring Leaders: - Nate Pierre-Louis: 21.1 Myles Cale: 20.9 Lionel Figueroa: 20.8 Kris Wilkes: 20.7 James Walker: 18.2

No regrets from me. I'm not overly concerned about our PG situation. No, it won't be a Yogi but I think we've got enough roster talent to not take that big of a step backwards. Certainly going to PUke is Spike's best move because he's absolutely guaranteed lots of playing time given their ineptness at that position. Will his body hold up? If it doesn't, Painter will get roasted from the fanbase for wasting a scholly on damaged goods.

From his AAU team: Another offer for 2017 Malik Williams. University Pittsburgh.

5'11" 165 lbs. "My 18th offer came from the University of Indiana! 18 reminds me of not letting your emotions get the best of you."
