    Stats look solid for a freshman, high usage it would appear. Stretch 5, 230lb big man. International player, wonder if he’s played against older individuals back home before college? Shot 10+ shots over his last 5 games. Averaged over 36 mpg over his last 5 games. At first glance I like it

    lol Hard to turn down a $400K increase at IU from UL, it makes sense why he chose UL lol. Also UL not much further of a drive to where he is from compared to IU

    $400K difference is very substantial difference for many ages, especially someone in the early 20s. Easy to see why he chose UL.

    I could agree with that when comparing the too. In the end, I think the output that Conwell has put forth was deemed not worthy of offloading $3-$4 million for him.

    With all the back n forth over the last 20 pages, we are at peak IU offseason basketball already AND its only April 2nd lol. We missed on a higher end guard that is estimated to be getting what $2.5/$3 million on say a $10 million budget? 30% to ONE guy. Guards win in march sure, BUT he didn't exactly light it up at Xavier in the 2 tourney games recently(see image). yes he averaged 16.5 ppg, 2.5 ast, 2.8 reb, 45% FG and 41% 3pt shooter on the season so I get the hype, I wanted this kid like most did So 30% of our NIL budget to a SG when we need 8-10 spots on a roster with 8 of those likely getting some significant NIL money? I really wanted Conwell BUT that is quite abit of money for 1 guy when we only have Tucker(yes blah blah blah there hasn't been anything official yet BUT he is waiting on his medical approval I do believe AND assuming Conner is on the team as of last nights news from a few). Conwell was underwhelming in the big dance this year, maybe with a better overall team those stats improve, I would bet it would. Tucker is LIKELY getting $1.5/$2 Mil minimum IMO. Anyone know what Tucker is projected to be at? $3 mill for Conwell + $2 mill for Tucker is half of our NIL budget lol woof Give CDV some time, he'll fill a roster out. Heck, we'll likely have a full roster by the end of April lol. Would you rather throw $2/$3 mill at Conwell? Or say Braden Smith(due to enter the portal today/tomorrow I do believe)? Give me Smith, he wanted to come to IU before committing to PU a few years ago. Conwell has been here twice AND passed on us twice.

    players would be silly to not attend their scheduled visits IF they are able to get them all in before April 7th date, especially given the potential amount of $ that is at stake
