I do not know what they are pitching, but it sounds like he is still going to make a visit to MSU.

I was told we offered Harris the most by far, so I'm guessing he is ours.

Busy weekend, but just to catch up were good with Burton, Mustaf, and Harris, right? Now just waiting on Sherril to decide. That is a good portal start.

Do you think it’s for clicks? I hope their right

He's still on his visit in Houston, but if the tea leaves are correct, as long as we pay close to his ask, we will get him. Sounds like he prefers us.

But don't worry were going to counter with Mustaf

Sounds like they will get Juke too

We could also not fill all the spots and spend more on starters.

He loves hitting 3's

As someone who is married to a far better-looking person, I understand, but I have also worked for a university for 25 years, and it has always been a no-no to date a student. I have 14 student employees right now, and I would never imagine trying to date one of them.

Wasn't she an undergrad at Alabama, and he was a 30-something basketball coach at the school when they were dating? Nice pull, but it seems odd

I somewhat agree, but also the defending national champs and one of the best coaches in the country just did it, and I feel good about it. I think IU overthinks things sometimes. Then we ned up with rosters like we had this year.

I just thought Estrella was one because he and Rod are so close.

What I don't understand is that everyone knows we are desperate for some talent, so we have to overpay, except for our staff. Agents know this. I feel like we are penny pinching sometimes when it is time, or maybe that was just the case for Estellia. But we had an in for him, we did everything to land him, and then we balked at the price. Sherril sure does have a lot of schools on his list for a do-not-contact tag. Duke and Michigan St scare me for him. Hopefully, good news is coming soon

Heck yeah, if that gets Burton to IU

If that is the case, I would give him 2 million tomorrow

This old dog did a new trick or something like that.

From what I understand, Ryan Carr is doing most of the evaluations but not the negotiating.

I wouldn't count Dorn as staying yet

I’ve heard his on the court coaching and scouting is not quite up to the level of the other coaches. But I have not been to a practice to see anything myself.

Maybe he started his coaching career at Smithville.

Is Darren Harris any relation to Del Harris? Del was originally from Smithville if I remember correctly. That was a little more of @Class of '66 Old Fart era. I’m just messing around. Hopefully we hear some good news this weekend.

From reading other boards and talking to some people, it sounds like Olson is a done deal, Estrealla is looking good, and hopefully, Burton doesn't commit on his visit to Houston.

I've read where we are, but ILL and Duke are supposedly the favorites

Also, just need him to be healthy.
