Troy has got to be a really improved shooter. He is athletic as all get out but there are a million guys with his athleticism and his size that don't even make it into the NBA. If he can become a better shooter and improve his defense, then he will in the league easily 

I think JBJ as a late lottery pick in 2016, Troy in the first round 2016 and yogi end of first or 2nd round steal in 2016 as well

I'm not sure either, but recently his guardian says it was too late on their schedule because he would've had to take classes during the summer, which didn't happened because he was dominating the AAU scene

Thon Maker is a 2016 recruit. He did not reclassify

Anyone see the picture he posted of his commitment? Not trying to make fun of the kid but he makes it pretty obvious that he has some academic issues, and he didn't do it on purpose either haha

I understand what you mean, but it's been happening for a lot longer than that. It's always happened. I definitely agree that here in the last few years it seems like kids are wanting to be package deals and that might have something to do with Lebron and his whole crew as well.

Trey Lyles will be lucky to get on the floor this year, and I think it's fitting

  I just think people have to remember that sometimes kids already have their mind made up. Indiana has offered and really recruited guys like Bluiett, Harris, Swanigan for example and those kids flat out didn't want to come to IU. Bluiett didn't want to be in the shadow of Yogi anymore. For example you mention Kyle Guy, Indiana was the first to offer him and show significant interest but he has seemed to take more interest and get more excited when getting offered by like Iowa. Some kids here in the state just honestly don't want to come for some odd reason. It's hard to use the "history" and program "prestige" with these kids because IU's decades of success was pretty much before most of these recruits were even born. 

Prediction: This kid ends up never playing D1 and never makes it to the NBA. In other words he ends up being forgotten within the next year
