Hollywood Mike Miranda

This was from Trendon's IG story yesterday. I would assume he's pretty close to making a decision if he's requesting help with a commitment video.

Key word there by being "kid". I mean jeez, dude... grow up already. Like Jurkin said, he doesn't owe you, IU, or the state of Indiana anything. It's his life to live. Maybe you should worry more about your own and less about teenagers you don't have any relationship with at all.

I hate that this has become a running joke about Romeo because he doesn't seem like that kind of kid at all, but I also find it extremely amusing and hope it never goes away, haha.

But the REAL question is... what do you guys think about this Anthony Harris fella?

For most of those miserable dudes, I honestly think it's all an act... some weird version of trolling. If you acted like that out in the real world, who would continue to interact with you? I would love to see how long they would last around here if everyone just blocked them like I have and never responded to any of their posts or replies. Can we actually just try that, lol? For like a week?

I f*ckin' love this. Things didn't go quite as expected, work harder. College ball a little tougher than expected, work harder. Shot wasn't falling like you thought it would, work harder. I obviously don't speak on the behalf of all Indiana fans or anything, but man, if you just give maximum effort we'll support you till the end no matter the outcome.

Per an Evan Daniels article that came out a little bit ago... Harris, a 6-foot-3 combination guard, missed the majority of his senior season after suffering a torn ACL in early December. Harris is expected to make a full recovery. "Anthony's rehab is going smooth and he's on target for a full recovery this summer," Farello told 247Sports https://247sports.com/college/basketball/recruiting/Article/Anthony-Harris-North-Carolina-Indiana-Four-star-2019-recruit-official-visits-131284817/

Hey now, we've always said "there's more than corn in Indiana" :)

Not for trolls... no effort at all. Trolls gonna troll cause that's all they know how to do. It's cold and dark under the troll bridge, regardless of the season.

Yeah, I agree with both of you. Definitely seems like a long shot at best. If anything, I think there's a very slim chance that we land him and it'll be based solely on the circumstances of his other choices.

Just your gut feeling? Or something else?

Yep, exactly. If I had to guess, I'd say Duke gets Hurt (who doesn't Duke get these days?) and they never actually offer TW in the end. And then TW ends up at Memphis. If IU does land him, I'll definitely be happy about it, but I think it'll happen via a combination of luck (thanks Christian!) and overall circumstance. Just my uninformed opinion though.

Chris007 stated fairly recently that IU didn't recruit him all season for one reason or another. I know people have suggested that perhaps we reached back out after the KBJ thing, but might it be that the Watfords got in contact with us instead? I mean, LSU and Bama are looking pretty suspect right now, Memphis is starting to look real full from a roster standpoint, and Duke hasn't even officially offered because they really want Hurt instead. We might just have a real shoot strictly due to circumstance. Who knows? I have no "insider" knowledge, by the way.

Not that I'm aware of. That's the power of programs like Dook, pUKe, Kan$a$$, etc. 5* kids want to be able to list them in there top choices even if they're clearly the 2nd option for that team (Hurt being the first option for Dookie).

I think you should, man. Just walk away from it. Actually, I think anybody who feels that way too should walk also. I hear Duke has a pretty good team this year. Maybe you could root for them instead going forward?? Just a thought.

Gotcha. Thanks for the great insight, as always!

Any specific reason why we haven't recruited him all season? Was there really never that much interest from the IU side? Or from TW's side?

For anybody wondering, I found a live link on Facebook pretty quickly

Looks like the sarcasm button on your keyboard got stuck while you were typing this up, lol. May want to check that out :)

Exactly! I've had this dude blocked for a while now and he still find a way to annoy me. If that's his sole intent, then bravo... mission accomplished. Talk about needing to grow up and get a life already... jeeeez.

So, if KBJ chooses IU on Friday will you please hop back in this thread real quick and apologize to everyone for constantly posting this annoying overly-negative nonsense? Thanks in advance!

Live feed on the indianambb Instagram page as well

That's how I took it. Being selfish = Doing what KBJ thinks is best for KBJ I don't think that's a bad sign either way, to be honest.
