  1. What about Mouhamed Faye are we checking him out?
  2. Go get him Kenny!
  3. Add 28 to that group and I would be extremely pleased. Then go get a couple more from the portal and we are set for 2026.
  4. I thought Jason Drake was a junior. Won't he be back along with Dorn, Miles. Harris, Sisley and now Ristic.
  5. So is Justin Bailey on staff and in Bloomington?
  6. And so will Luigi Suigo, the 7'3" Italian.
  7. Thank you Old Fart. Greatly appreciated.
  8. Is it just me or does he only look to be 6'5"-6'6"? Still would be a great addition. Really hope we can lock in Sammy Jackson and Latrell to kick off our 26 class.
  9. Wow, just started looking at visit dates and the staff is going to be extremely busy the next few weeks. 6/11-6/12- NBPA Top 100 Camp 6/13-6/14-Sammy Jackson visit 6/17-6/18-Both Latrell Almond and Luigi Suigo on official visits 6/25-6/27-Prince Alexander Moody visit All that on top of coaching 11 new guys and implementing your offensive and defensive systems and trying to put together a cohesive team.
  10. He is 18 so not sure why he couldn't join this years team. Might be a project but would help with frontcourt depth which we do not have right now.
  11. What, no Jordan Smith? Seems odd must have previous commitment.
  12. Been a huge Pacers fan since the ABA days but this Thunder defense is amazingly good. Pacers lucky to be only down 12.
  13. Can you imagine a backcourt of Caleb Holt and Jordan Smith? Never going to happen but wow just wow!
  14. Were any of the staff at this event?
  15. I know Coach Devries says he likes what we have at the 5 but we play in the Big Ten. Two words-foul trouble, make that four words--injuries happen. just need some depth in the frontcourt. Time will tell. Let's all have fun this summer. The team arrives next week and practices and workouts begin. We should hear a few tidbits how players are looking. July we're back to AAU games and recruiting updates and maybe some more visits. August we have the Puerto Rico trip and hopefully some video of the team against some quality competition. September more visits and hopefully commitments. And football will be back.
  16. Dead period ends today so hopefully we see some more visits lined up. Maybe a few new scholarship offers. So great to see Coach Devries actively involved in recruiting.
  17. Why do we need a mascot and what does a bison have to do with being a Hoosier?
  18. Hey Demo, What are you hearing on Najai Hines? Everything I read on line seems to indicate he is in the 2025 class. Played football in North Carolina and had multiple P5 offers but moved to Plainfield New Jersey for his senior to play basketball and wants to play basketball in college. Would be a fantastic late addition and help solve our frontcourt depth problem.
  19. Well cross Braydon Hawthorne off your list. He is announcing his commitment on Tuesday and IU is not in his final five. Maybe the recruit the photographer saw was Sebastian Wilkens?
  20. So TTT who is your source ? Is Emely Rodriquez a Hoosier or not? Folks are confused.
  21. Thank you, wasn't trying to be disrespectful just curious.
  22. I only saw Ian Platteeuw mentioned one time by The Daily Hoosier and then nothing else. Watched some film and he looks like a major project. Who knows what is going on behind the scenes with this staff. They seem to be very busy with 2026 offers now. The Hawthorne news seems to be rumors right now just hope they have legs.. He would be an excellent addition and as Sunshine Pumper said would pair nicely with Sisley in the future.
  23. Yeah you're right I got carried away on the Neoklis Avdalas train. Va Tech got a visit before the Combine and their beat writer said Avdalas was asking for 30 minutes per game and featured usage. We can't and shouldn't offer that. Who knows what is going on with Sebastian Wilkins and if he even could reclass. Maybe just maybe Hawthorne is open to the idea of competeing for minutes with Harris and Alexis. The pre-existing relationship with Coach Devries can't hurt.
