I have said many times the staff doesn't speak about TJD anymore and I don't ask. That's not in a bad way I know they really want him I just choose to bring it up. So I have no inside information about him. I have thought he would have been a Hoosiers 2 or 3 times already. I would listen to pap or Uspshoosier who lives there about this recruiting. From what I understand mom wants IU, stepdad wants MSU or UCLA but not IU. MSU convinced him to give them more time and watch how they play this year. He's their 2nd or 3rd option for a big guy so not sure why he is listening to them. This recruitment has lasted too long for me so I'm over it. He's not Romeo. I like the way Race, Moore, Forrester has gotten better so I think we will be OK either way.

Here is the info on it https://iuhoosiers.com/news/2017/8/17/general-iu-athletics-to-implement-clear-bag-and-metal-detector-policy-for-home-football-and-basketball-games-and-encourages-fans-to-get-here-early.aspx

No restrictions. But you will go through a metal detector. Also, woman can't bring purses unless it is in a clear plastic bag.

We'll all have a white Russian if that continues for the season.

A second IU baseball commits from Edgewood my alma mater. He will only be a sophomore. good kid, great family

Have you thought about adoption? Maybe you can get it right this time :-)

Ramsey is not being considered.

I've never lived in McNutt. Been there many times. But mold has been found in many more dorms than just McNutt this year

The plan was for him to start but he tweaked an older injury before the trip up so they held him out.

That was the plan heading up to Indy but held him out for precautionary reasons.

The starters were, Green, Romeo, McRoberts, Smith, and Morgan.

Mold

Not hearing anything. Haven't reached out to anyone, dealing with other things here at IU that are not good but not in athletics.

The exact date. If I had the time I would look it up. That's why when the family said he didn't know till a week before I knew that wasn't true.

You are correct the exact same person who told me Romeo will announce for IU on this date told me that TJD will follow suit 2 weeks later. I know for sure the info about Romeo coming to IU was taken to TJD and he was so excited he said he was going to announce too in a couple of weeks. Maybe he was just caught up in the moment. I was also told he would have announced by now too. It's happening just not on my timeframe.

I called the exact date by over a month to go. I had good reason to believe what I was told from where it came from. Peegs and those guys are journalists and they have to fact check. But they talk to the same person I do, just maybe don't get the same info.

Some MAC school will probably get in big trouble over it.

I'm pretty sure it is a violation.

All of my thoughts on this subject are my own, not any inside knowledge. I just know that people are not happy with how close Sam Alford is getting to the family like visiting them more than once at their house. Whether they are a close second or just second they have moved past MSU in a shorter amount of time. I think most people on all IU boards thought he would have been committed to IU by now. Hopefully, next week is the week or at least he goes as an IU basketball player for Halloween on the 31st.

True but it's so dang cold outside I can't grow 3 plants because my body will go numb.

Not really just seems like it's taking some time. I thought this recruitment from everything I have been told should have been over at least 3 times by now. Plus I just don't trust Steve, Sam or any other Alford

I thought it would be done by this weekend but I think that's out for now. Maybe next week

You and me both brother.

Yes right behind us

I would put them in a close 2nd right now. Sam Alford has been visiting with the family a lot from what I have been told. The bright spot is Alford should be fired after underachieving again this year.
