Got it. Thought you might know since Cuban's lack of involvement is public knowledge.

Fair enough. So what individual(s) do give money or were involved in the recruitment.

I too would like some evidence of the cancer talk. He definitely shoots a lot, but the upside is there. Just needs to reign it in.

This is so dumb, it makes my head spin.

He's projected 13th pick in 2024 nba mock draft

Sweet!!!

It will change. But for now, it is what it is. But they will need to reign it in. CBB and especially the NCAA will not last unless they do.

His son was my buddy's bookie at IU. If he's on here, that was a while ago :) . Also, The Cuban follow probably was a bigger deal than I wanted to believe (because we've been burned with the following talk before). But a family friend went to a big donor event at U of I and per the IL staff, IU gets most its NIL money from Cuban.

He's a big time IU donor (lawyer) etc. And an old guy. Not your typical social media follower type.

So it's online, but the account owner doesn't want people to see it? Come on man. That's pretty lame(o). If someone is posting online, they are aware people might see it.

What did you see? Might as well just say it at this point. Who cares if you are wrong?

Didn't someone say this exact same thing on Twitter? And what was HD's cryptic tweet?

Don't love Recker, but he was in a pretty bad car wreck and left Arizona to be closer to his GF and dad: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Luke_Recker

It's brand identity, it's not important if the name is literal. If you change it to Big 16 would that be a good name? Would people know what it was? A lot teams and leagues have names that don't make sense. I suppose the Lakers should change their name because there are no lakes in LA. ACC (Atlantic Coast Conference) has ND and Louisville. So you think all these leagues should change their name every time they add teams because it "makes no sense"?

Who cares about the name of the conference.

Why would this make anyone nervous or be "nothing"?

He's not in the portal though. So there has to be some sort of connection, I guess Ware , though they are not the same class etc.

Why would he come to IU, like what's the connection? And who is saying this? I love rumors but this one seems pretty odd because of where he's from etc.

I think people underestimate how playing in the Big Ten is a detriment these days. They are not getting the elite players anymore and have not done well in the tournament. IU is definitely getting negatively recruited against because of this. It's been mentioned by a few people. BIG needs to realize this and start changing the way the games are called.

Great defense :/

So the Wayne in your profile name refers to Fort Wayne? I am from there as well. Regardless, good stuff. IU has been recruiting that area better the last few years.

You wanna end up in junior college? Keep thinking "My job is to coach". It's a new era you got to do more than coach these days if you want to make millions.

A long time? This year's class was pretty good in my eyes. One guy is going to the NBA, the other played significant minutes, one guy faded, the other started contributing.

I'm not a fanboy of "insiders" but I do appreciate what all of them bring. It's way more fun. They're all wrong from time to time. But I'd rather they be wrong every now and then, than if they never shared any info at all. So I'm not sure what's to gain by saying one guy's full of it anymore so than any other guy? But that's just my two cents. I come here for scoops just like I go there for scoops. I would actually say most guys are spot on when it comes to current player/coaching and portal "rumors", but can strike out a bit with the "standard" recruit info. Unless the insider is Woody or the assistants, I think there's always going to be some "misses".
