    Otherwise known as the "Brad Davison Rule"
  2. AKHoosier
    Safe to say his career has not gone as he (or his dad) had envisioned. Hope it works out for him. I doubt it would have gone much better for him here, but I can't help but wonder if the constant threat of 5 star one-and-done kids at UK just was too much for him to get comfortable and find a groove.

    Huge news on a Friday! This team is capable of winning it all. Prove me wrong.
  4. AKHoosier
    It'll be tough to get three 5 star players from Montverde, and I doubt it happens. You never know what can happen though. Few would have ever expected us to land Malik Reneau after he committed and signed to Florida.

    I loved the idea until I read this: The matchups would be decided by an algorithm that would ensure the best teams play the best teams. The games wouldn't be determined until the end of January. Why does an algorithm need to decide this? Can't we just figure out a way for nonconference matchups to happen for a 5 day span in early February?

    Couldn't it have the opposite effect? Bacot and Tshiebwe are 2 less bigs that would have potentially been taken ahead of TJD now.
  7. AKHoosier
    Freaking WOW. What I love is this kid is a skilled basketball player with tremendous footwork and ability to finish around the rim, not just a crazy athletic guy playing basketball they attached a 5 star ranking to. Feels good to win these!

    I still remember the 2014 class when Peegs was floating the idea of a potentially monster class with Blackmon, Trey Lyles, Theo Pinson, and Cliff Alexander. We all know how that turned out. That's when I realized recruiting is never as good or bad as you think it'll be.
  9. AKHoosier
    I'd rather get funky and go with XJ, JHS, Bates, Geronimo at the 4, and TJD at the 5. First off the bench are Race and Galloway.
  10. AKHoosier
    And yet our defense was still #24 nationally at the end of the year. Defense is not a weakness. Shooting is.
  11. AKHoosier
    Do we need another Galloway? I'm trying to see how this one makes sense. He seems like the type you add if you have starting guards that are both shooting 40%+ from 3 and you're trying to shore up some defense. I'm sure he can be a good player and contributor on a good team, just not at IU right now.
  12. AKHoosier
    Not sure, seems like Izzo but that's based on virtually nothing.
  13. AKHoosier
    I'm seeing rumors he's all bit sealed to a particular school, not sure where or how true they are though. Apparently we've reached out.
  14. AKHoosier
    Ugh. Our starting 5 should be selected from no more than the below 6 players assuming all are with us next year Xavier JHS Tamar Bates Race Geronimo TJD Obviously the roster can still shake up a bit between now and November.
  15. AKHoosier
    Not the end of the world then, I think we can find a better fit imo.
  16. AKHoosier
    I think this dude will be a Hoosier.
  17. AKHoosier
    Yeah, Geronimo is a player I want back just as much as Trayce. If someone has to leave in order for him to be retained, then so be it. How would we have done against Wyoming without JG? I'm still convinced we'd have won the BTT with a healthy Geronimo.
  18. AKHoosier
    Keep in mind on Pack - he'd make Purdue a fringe top 25 team. He's a very good player, not a huge difference maker though.
  19. AKHoosier
    Yep, there are B1G teams who are trying to flip the script. Us, UM, Maryland, and Illinois I feel are trying to forge a new style. Iowa to an extent.
  20. AKHoosier
    No B1G team likely to start the year in the top 10. Also neither MSU nor UW on this list. If we get Trayce back, no reason to think we can't compete for the B1G next year. There I said it.
  21. AKHoosier
    I love this group, this would be my favorite starting lineup since Yogi's and Thomas Bryant's last year.
  22. AKHoosier
    Wow. That'd be wild.
  23. AKHoosier
    Can someone who speaks "social media" translate this? Is Reanu the one who said "they see this duo"?
  24. AKHoosier
    I think that every time I hear it. I guarantee the play by play guy (Jim Nantz in this case) thinks "Why do I have to wait for him to say this?"
  25. AKHoosier
    If we're able to pry Reneau away from the state of Florida, then wow. Get him on campus and I'll give us a puncher's chance at landing him. Really impressive player with nice footwork. Not high-level athlete but that's ok. I love his defensive capabilities from day 1 too.
