Catching up on the board today...Would be crazy to add all these guys. Jalen DeLoach would start day 1 at Penn State. Not sure he would at IU. Still, would be wild if Woodson can add him. Sounds good though if those guys (DeLoach, Ledlum, and Ware) are interacting with players on social media. Really hope they can land a wing/guard. Knecht I think would average 15 a game. How bad was his team to finish 12-20? He can play!! I feel like (at least hoping) this will be a very balanced team next year. I'v been watching film of these guys with some downtime this evening. I like Knecht the most. He's just a pure scorer and really athletic. Need scoring bad after losing a ton of it. Ledlum seems like a guy that can do a bit of everything. I'm not sure how much he scores here at IU. I feel better about him being a 3. Ware is a guy that has a ton of potential. Like TJD he's a force at the rim and he can step out and guard the 3 point line. He's kind of raw. As much as I want him, not sure he really should be the #2 player in the portal. I can see him as a 10 PPG, 7 RPB, 2 blocks a game kind of player...which is still REALLY good.

Always appreciate the info you share. Others on Twitter/Peegs/etc I just feel like they do it for attention. Never get that vibe from you.

Agree. I love BTownBanners. I did a $1 Peegs trial this month and I've already canceled. It's ridiculous on there the way they (and even Rabjohns/Hysteric guy) act. Sorry but Rabjohns knew what he was doing last night..IU Twitter was pathetic from some people I've really come to like over the years. Makes our fan base look silly even though it was people that have large platforms. All they need to say is things went well but nothing is final. Instead, I see "Future is REALLY" bright tweet, a podcast claiming "he might need to clear his schedule", memes of Woodson saying he is a "closer". I hope they all learned a lesson.. I know I did.

Agree with the bolded part IU fans are crazy but there are those who have a huge platform (mainly on Twitter) that added gasoline to the fire...and it was totally unnecessary. Is what it is.

Sounds like not only is IU in good shape with Ware/Ledlum but Knecht too.

Either IU got Ware or a ton of people are going to have egg on their face. I didn't realize it but I went back and Morris said "I need to make sure my calendar is clear tomorrow". Huge hint for their emergency pod.

On the episode tonight Morris said during a transition that he was getting messages he couldn't talk about while smiling. Feels like he's hint dropping.

Morris is hinting on the Assembly Call episode about a commitment tomorrow

Feel like right now the staff is going all chips in on Ledlum, Ware, and possibly Knecht. Timberlake doesn't seem likely to come to IU. Shedrick, Handlogten, and DeLoach seem like backup options right now. Ranking the ones I'd like to see at IU 1. Knecht-this team has to get another wing/guard or I don't see IU being a serious contender in the Big Ten/NCAA. Right now it seems he is the only guard IU is really serious with. 2) Ware- Not a lot of bigs like this in the Big Ten..if any at all. Would love to have him. 3) Ledlum- Probably a distant third. Just have a hard time seeing how a career 29% three point shooter is going to be our 3. If he's going to be the 4...would rather that be Malik considering he has three years left instead of Ledlum's 1. We will see. Seems like a great kid and would be a positive impact person in the locker room. Obviously would be happy to have him.

Yep!

I laugh at 247 portal rankings...Shedrick was around 42 yesterday. Once Duke gets involved he jumps into the top 20. If Ware commits to IU I bet he goes from 1 to 30.

Also answered on a scale from 1-10 that we should feel this is a 7. I don't think he normally says stuff like this. We shall see.

Hope they add Knecht or another wing. Curious if they see Ledlum as a 3 or 4. Really would like for Malik to start.

Ware.

Rabjohns sounds like he feels really good about this one. I've been an on/off Peegs person (usually during the offseason for $1). He normally isn't like this.

I have a really good feeling about Ware...feels like when recruits kind of come out of nowhere that's usually a good sign.

100%. I know the staff will push hard for a commitment too. Imagine if they get both. Frontcourt will be set. Then IU can go all in on a guard/wing.

I'll repeat what I said last night for him..sign me up. Sounds like he probably could get drafted if he wanted to this year in June. Instead, he wants to come back to school to improve. Have to think TJD improving his stock stood out to this kid!

I feel comfortable with our frontcourt going into next year. Sounds like the staff is really going to push for Ledlum to commit this weekend which is what Chris and Rabby have said. Feels like they are in good shape to land a 5 (Ware/Shedrick/Handlogten). All that's left is a guard/wing. Knecht would be a nice get. I don't know how things stand with Timberlake but he didn't commit to UNC on/after his visit. Just can't stress how important it is for this program to keep going forward and to not take a step back. Can't afford to have a 2013-2014 like season with the '24 and '25 classes coming up.

Nellie's. Actually in Newburgh. I don't think there are any high schoolers IU is looking at here.

I wonder if Woodson was recruiting in the Evansville area today. Friends of mine met him at a breakfast place. He was apparently wanting to play golf at Victoria.

Wherever he goes, I applaud him for wanting to stay in college. ESPN has him at #35 on their draft boards. Most freshmen jump at that and leave.

When Chris and Rabby are saying the same thing..good things happen.

I think Durr was in May.

Not sure how much I'm able to say about Peegs (I only did it for just this month) but I don't think we will. It's silent over there outside random people.
