Wouldn't surprise me if he is still an assistant even if it is Calipari but still has the connections.

I don't think we will have a spot for any more 17 kids if we keep Smith and Durham. Just my gut feeling but I think we might only have 2 open scholarships for the 2017 class.

He has recruited high level players at Arizona and Ohio State. He also has connections to USA basketball U19 team as an assistant for Sean. Plus he has gotten several good players to come to Dayton like Kostas Auntentakmpo who was a 4 star. So if he can attract this kids to UD I would hope he could get 4 and 5 stars to IU.

I agree 100 %. Phinisee reminds me a little bit of Tyler Ulis that played at Kentucky only an couple inches taller. So yeah he has to be prioritized ahead of anyone not named Romeo imo.

That might depend on the situation. But I'm not exactly sure. I'll look into it though.

It is ok once the recruit has signed the NLI.

Romeo could be tough but he is an adidas kid so it is possible. I think he will land a big and a point guard. Possibly Phinisee for the pg spot.

Yeah that's what I meant. I probably should have been more specific. But the point is the players will get the message.

Yeah CAM isn't going to come out and say that he wants to take a recruit or a player from Dayton publically but I'm sure he will communicate with these players personally and not publically.

I agree. I think CAM is going to be a monster in recruiting much like his brother is at Arizona.

He was a redshirt sophomore this year so he has 2 years of eligibility left.

Seniors Blackmon Johnson Priller Newkirk McSwain Juniors Bryant Morgan Sophomores Davis Green Jones Gelon Freshman Smith That leaves 1 open scholarship of all of these guys return. So would you rather have Durham, Moore, Wright, or someone else?

Thought some people might like to see this. It was the most recent video I could find. It's only about 3 months old.

Davis would have needed to want them for that to be the case. I know from a prominent former Indiana High School coach that had college connections that he didn't want either because they were one and done players. I also know that Conley got a letter sent to him early in the process by Davis that had the wrong name on it so that was the end of that fwiw.

Well at least Archie is going to touch a ball while he is the coach lol.

Or Miller might think that he can be the coach that makes Blackman guard. Not saying it's the case but most coaches don't doubt themselves.

Everyone except for Hartman.

I haven't seen Hartman at the press conference. Could be a sign that he won't be back fwiw.

I saw Jawan Morgan in Indy today about 2 hours after the announcement. Some guy went up and asked him if he liked the Archie hire and I said he did. Could have been the truth I don't really know but I thought it was interesting fwiw.

I have heard from multiple people there really is.

Just so everyone knows it is possible that Billy flew to Bloomington last night and flew back today before the OKC practice. It is about an 1:45 minute flight in a cessna twin jet. Not to mention they would add an hour going to OKC so it would essentially be 45 minutes in the air. Also there is an underground tunnel from Cooks Hall to Assembly Hall. I'm pretty sure their is an underground parking area as well or at least a back lot so it's very possible have could have been on campus undetected.

I haven't been on today so I have to ask what is all the talk about PM's for?

Yep it was yesterday's plane. I miss read the date. False alarm.

There is another flight coming in from Atlanta today. This one is a private jet service. So it is probably someone from the Parker Search Firm.

Remember things started getting wishy washy right before it was announced Crean was fired. Thing get this way when a decision has been made and they are waiting for the announcement by plugging up the leaks. Just basing it off of past experiences.
