Ok, so three NBA talents. Thanks.

1.) Maybe I'm missing the gist of your statement. You used OG's injury as an example of the downside of being a "NBA factory". And I said that's not a good point because he was not a one and done prospect when he was recruited. 2.) This Wisconsin point still bothers me. Wisconsin, for all of their consistency under Bo Ryan, made two Final Fours in 14 years. For all of his in game prowess and respected coaching ability, those two Final Fours were achieved with NBA talent in Frank Kaminsky and Nigel Hayes. So what is it exactly that you want to be?

(2018) SF Jericole Hellems to NC State
goonaha replied to hoosierpap's topic in Indiana Basketball Recruiting Forum
I personally think it's beneficial to have a good relationship with a high upside player. If he blows up, we were in on the ground floor. If he doesn't, the offer can go cold. I'm a fan of this kid. As someone mentioned earlier, he was behind Jayson Tatum and Tyler cook (Iowa freshman) last year on his high school team, as well as those two plus more on his AAU team. I'm confident he'll be a four star after this strong HS season and a good summer. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app -
(2018) SF Jericole Hellems to NC State
goonaha replied to hoosierpap's topic in Indiana Basketball Recruiting Forum
Gelon never played at a level even close to what Hellems sees at both high school and AAU. No offense to everybody's romanticism towards Indiana high school basketball, but the quality of play in St. Louis is way better than the region. Not too mention that our only guard commit in the 17 class is similarly ranked as a 3 star. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app -
(2019) PG Grant Sherfield
goonaha replied to ccgeneral's topic in Indiana Basketball Recruiting Forum
Not sure what he looks like, but I saw a kid with Chuck Martin driving up Indiana by the gates in one of the official golf carts. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app -
How is it Crean's fault that OG, who was an under recruited 3 star recruit, developed fast enough to get drafted after 2 years? Oh, and losing Koenig or Hayes would absolutely devastate that Wisco team. No need to jerk them off that much. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

Do any NBA historians know of precedent of players getting drafted first round 4-5 months after an ACL tear? Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

(2018) SG Romeo Langford - INDIANA HOOSIERS
goonaha replied to ccgeneral's topic in Indiana Men's Basketball
4 teams get a trophy. Because there's 4 classes. -
(2017) PG Tremont Waters to LSU
goonaha replied to Uspshoosier's topic in Indiana Basketball Recruiting Forum
Georgetown just lost to Arkansas State. Seems like a great situation to walk into. -
I mean this makes it even easier for him to transfer right if he doesn't graduate in the spring. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

(2017) PG David Beatty to South Carolina
goonaha replied to Uspshoosier's topic in Indiana Basketball Recruiting Forum
This feels like a recruitment that backed off of towards the end. -
(2017) PG David Beatty to South Carolina
goonaha replied to Uspshoosier's topic in Indiana Basketball Recruiting Forum
I also find it very interesting that none of the IU predictions from the Crystal Ball are associated with the program. All outsiders + Jerry Meyer. -
(2017) PG David Beatty to South Carolina
goonaha replied to Uspshoosier's topic in Indiana Basketball Recruiting Forum
The simpler answer might be that Crean and Beatty mutually decided that IU was not a fit. -
(2018) PG Darius Garland to Vandy
goonaha replied to ccgeneral's topic in Indiana Basketball Recruiting Forum
There isn't much point freaking about some crystal ball predictions this far out. We should not stop recruiting 5 stars just because we've had some bad luck in 2017. -
(2017) SF Jordan Tucker- OV 11/30/16
goonaha replied to ccgeneral's topic in Indiana Basketball Recruiting Forum
Will Crean make a new push to land Tucker? It would make sense if he was always planning on signing 2 SF's. -
Hoosier Hysteria Visitors - 10/22/16
goonaha replied to ccgeneral's topic in Indiana Basketball Recruiting Forum
I assumed it was in addition since Preston has been widely reported. It might be Romeo. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app -
Hoosier Hysteria Visitors - 10/22/16
goonaha replied to ccgeneral's topic in Indiana Basketball Recruiting Forum
I've seen tweets eluding to another 5 star visiting for Hoosier hysteria? Any idea who this is? Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app -
(2018) PG Darius Garland to Vandy
goonaha replied to ccgeneral's topic in Indiana Basketball Recruiting Forum
Yep, time to go all in on this recruitment. Should be a lot easier to sell a starting job now with no Waters. -
(2017) PG Tremont Waters to LSU
goonaha replied to Uspshoosier's topic in Indiana Basketball Recruiting Forum
Tremont deleted his twitter. She didn't unfollow. -
(2017) PG Tremont Waters to LSU
goonaha replied to Uspshoosier's topic in Indiana Basketball Recruiting Forum
Because Wilkes didn't set an imminent decision date after that unscheduled visit and Waters did. Pretty simple really. -
(2017) PG Tremont Waters to LSU
goonaha replied to Uspshoosier's topic in Indiana Basketball Recruiting Forum
I would be more upset missing out on Wilkes than Waters. I think we could survive next season with a senior Newkirk at point, with RoJo, Cujo, and Green all capable of playing that position as well. Focus on a 2018 stud PG, i.e. Darius Garland.
