    ....exactly! Like, how many of these youngsters even know what or ever had the luxury of "Call Waiting" on land line phones? lol It was like this.... a recruit talking to his girlfriend on a landline (with a super long cord that could stretch from the kitchen to his bedroom) and call waiting beeps in...."Hey, someone's trying to call, It may be Coach Knight. I gotta go!" lol

    I sure this CE recruitment turns quick like Ballo. I just don’t want this to end up flipping to another school at the last minute….

    Oumar Ballo (7'0" C) TO INDIANA

    I was just thinking of DJ Burns from NC State. He is 6' 9" and 275 lbs. He played surprisingly well for his size and weight. However, he was definitely overmatched against Purdue, but more than that, he looked totally gassed as the tourney finally appeared to catch up with him. Ballo is at a much different level that Burns. He kind o reminded me of "Big Baby" Glen Davis a little. He was 6' 9" and 289 in college.

    I absolutely love this! Ballo is taking the time to just have fun with the boys! Man,…. in grand scheme of things, playing basketball is a huge part of life for these boys, but having fun and building genuine friendships is much bigger in the long run. JMO GO IU!

    This year’s gonna be different, IMO. The best players start and then the good ones are first to come off the bench. IMO, Gallo wasn’t promised a starting spot. He was guaranteed more more money guaranteed playing time for stay. JMHO GO IU!

    I know money talks, but so what! If things continue to move in favor of IU with these premium players and desperate needs met, IU is looking pretty “tasty”. Lol

    I love it when posters, who live in Bloomington, find these recruits out and about and steal some pics… I hope to see some from this weekend.

    Coach Curt Cignetti to INDIANA

    My new favorite line from Coach Cignetti......"Our job isn't to please them, their job is to please us." This soooo true with any college sport, especially now with NIL.

    College Bball Thread

    .....it can work, but you need an athletically, mobile big with a good midrange shot and a great passer with excellent court vision. I see this with TJD and look how well he is doing now. Zach getting credited for 0 assists is a disaster. He was totally gassed and had no help. That's the problem with a huge big like Edey. The further he gets away from the basket he almost becomes a liability. UCONN pulled him away from the basket on defense then exploited his lack of quickness and inability to get back it time. JMO
