Garland has already said that he would like to play with Tre Jones and I think he mentioned Reddish as another player that he'd like to play in college with. Not saying he'll go to Duke because I don't think he will but these recruits won't be the reason why.

You can't compete against a bunch of future pro's on OSU D-Line when you are starting 2 and 3 star recruits on the O-Line. It's just not going to happen.

Or someone transfers/goes pro.

Yep I watched them twice last year. I'm also 95% sure New Albany had an Adidas sponsored preseason hype video last year bfore the start of the season if I remember correctly.

All I said is that is the only thing that makes sense. Plus I don't think the CAM wants to roll into next season with Clifton Moore and Race Thompson as the only 2 bigs on the roster if they both leave. I know you think it's a long shot that 1 or both of them leave but a lot of the players in CBB think that they are better off playing in the G League rather than staying in school for 4 years now a days.

The only reason I think IU is still pursing Forrester is because the coaching staff thinks that Morgan or Davis or both will be going pro of some sort after this year.

Phinisee doesn't impact Garland. Garland is a day 1 starter for 1 or 2 years max. Phinisee is a 4 year guy that probably doesn't start until year 3 at the earliest.

I agree. I'm just saying that if they did want to come here and he wanted them that CAM would find a way to make it happen.

Yeah where did he post that? I can't seem to find it.

If Romeo doesn't end up at an Adidas school I'll be shocked. I also wouldn't be surprised if Adidas stepped in to make sure he ends up at, KU, U of L, or IU. They were however part of the reason that Schilling left UCLA and came to IU after Adidas made the switch to Under Armour. I know some of you think that the Langford's are above that but there is nothing wrong with Adidas making sure Romeo knows that he'll gets a huge shoe deal after his 1 and done season in school if he goes to an Adidas school. PS: I know everyone talks about Romeo playing for an Adidas AAU team but New Albany also wears Adidas shoes and Uniforms. Coincidence? I don't think so.

If Brooks and TJD want to be Hoosiers they will be Hoosiers. Same probably goes for Watford, Hurt, and any other 5 stars that Archie is recruiting. Yes that means that Archie might have to pull some scholarships but if a kid proves he can't play at a championship level and Archie didn't recruit him the tough luck. It stinks for the player but Archie was brought in to hang banner #6 not make players that FCTC recruited happy.

I'm not sure what school this has to do with but it got the attention of both Rick and Alex Bozich.

Thank you for being another voice of reason. I know IU had some interest in Brown but I'm pretty sure Archie hasn't made an offer. Some people are looking at 2019 like it's guaranteed we land 2 or 3 5* recruits but nothing is guaranteed in recruiting especially when dealing with teenagers.

The fact that IU is still recruiting Garland and Devoe. Tells me that either Green, Jones, or Durham will be going pro or transferring after this year. I would be leaning towards a transfer.

Truthfully after watching a couple of Forrester's mix tapes I'm not real sure why so many people are down on him. If you watch the highlights on offense he runs the lane pretty well, he has a decent jumper although it is a slow release, and he seems to crash the glass every time a shot goes up. On defense he keeps his hands up to block shots and doesn't slap down which helps avoid foul trouble. I could also see him becoming better as he adds weight because he could still fill out his frame. So with that I understand that he isn't an elite talent but I could also se him being similar to Juwan Morgan in a year or two. Just my two cents on the matter of Jake Forrester's recruitment.

I'm guessing that the coaching staff either thinks there is a player or 2 that could go pro that we don't know about yet or there will be a couple of guys transfer.

I don't think it's even a question as to whether or not Watford and Brooks can play together. Watford is a SF and Brooks is a SF/PF. In fact according to ESPN and Rivals Brooks is a PF which I personally agree with after watching him play a couple of times because I thought his athleticism was a question mark to match up against elite SF's.

I love the mentality that Anderson and Hunter have right now about raising the level of the program.

Very well put.

I noticed that in the latest ESPN ranking Brooks was listed as a PF so I think they could play together.

Yeah about that. No Thanks! Let's let Priller stay on the bench and be the 20 point guy or if we get 2 or 3 guys in foul trouble. I couldn't even imagine Priller trying to hold his ground against Haas.

I think we should try and find a grad transfer post player so that way we have at least some size to back up Davis because that is the one area I think the roster is lacking imo.

Per Rabby Grant Gelon has been granted his release by Indiana.

Crean never showed any interest.

According to Rabjohns Indiana has started talking to Brandon Johns a 4 star forward from Michigan. I guess IU is really wanting to get him on campus for an unofficial visit.
