Crean at the Logansport Regional watching McCutcheon vs Carmel.

Stone bashes a guy's head into the ground and outcome of the situation is MD cutting the lead by one. Seems reasonable.

Unfortunately, not sounding good for us here.

Not sure the bolded part of your quote is true:   http://scoop.hoosiershq.com/2015/12/could-camion-patrick-fit-at-running-back-in-2016-iufb/   Notable McCullough quotes:   “I need prolonged time with guys like that. I’m looking forward to it, if that’s what it’s gonna be. He’s looking forward to it. He came over and did some individual (drills) with us. I said, ‘You need some time with us, man, to make that full conversion from a great athlete and scout team running back to a (full-time) running back and being that guy.’ I definitely like what he brings to the table.”   “Defensive coaches would tell me, ‘Hey, you need to watch the tape of him.’ It was something to be seen, for sure. Now, it’s about taking that, harnessing it into the particulars of our offense and (doing it) as a running back and not just getting the ball and taking off running. It’s actually (understanding), ‘I have keys and there’s some pace to this. I have to do some different things.’ It’ll be exciting to see how that crosses over if the full-blown decision is to make him a running back.”   “He’s got some size, some strength, and he’s got some juice,” McCullough said. “He’s got great hands and he’s very excited about that possibility, which hasn’t been finalized yet. I just want some more time with him.”   Wilson Note:   Wilson said last week that Patrick is currently splitting time between receiver and running back in practice.   ------------------------------------------   I'm not claiming the switch will happen, just saying it seems more of a possibility than you're allowing for.

In no way am I disagreeing with you assertion. However, he did line up at RB for the scout team in many practices and impressed from what I've read. CKW and McCullough have both spoke of this in pressers and said he's been splitting time between WR and RB in practice.   Of note, our WR crew should be solid next year with Jones, Paige, Simmie (if he can catch the ball), and others. RB is shaky if Howard does indeed leave.   It's not as if a WR to RB position change is uncommon or unsuccessful (think Prosise this year), especially when the WR is 225.

In response to Question #4, it's sounding like Camion Patrick may fill a void at RB.   Will be interesting to see what position he plays next season. From all accounts, Camion seems to be an explosive and exciting player.

Wasn't sure where to put the recruiting note. Didn't feel it was worthy of its own thread and felt this was most appropriate given the conference ties. Mods feel free to delete/move if necessary.

Seems to be some pro-IU talk this morning, haven't heard much indicating MSU lately. Still a long 24+ hours until a decision but I'm becoming slightly more optimistic.    Hoping Kegler's decision today has no effect on DD's. If it does, we're in trouble.

IU- 42 Iowa- 38

Not saying I know anything or that what you said above isn't true, but most of what I've read recently points to Maryland being very strong with Kegler.    Of course, that will change after this weekend :yes:
