There has been a lot of great JC players and two helped us win our last championship. I am not questioning him being from JC but the other teams that are recruiting him makes me wonder about him. If coach has confidence he would be good here that is good enough for me.

I am not the only one that has done that and I did it one time.

I know that but wonder why no other power conference teams are reaching out to him

It seems you have an abnormal obsession with me

I will trust the coach but it makes me question if he is a high major player.

Probably was using our offer to get more money from their current team. Also I never said it never happens but it is rare to make lateral moves.

We are the only power conference team and the rest are mid to low major teams

Just watched the Risley podcast and I am trying to figure out who those 4 or 5 players would be. Coach Devries has kept everything really quiet and haven't heard a lot of names. I am surprised that Coach Devries told all of this during the zoom call.

Well right now our team looks like our HC

I was right saying the big fish doesn't leave their current job. I also said that if you can get a power conference coach it would be a guy like Brownell from Clemson which is pretty much Devries from WVU. On the assistant coaches I referred to isn't coming here do I was right on that.

When have I said players wouldn't come here.

Thanks, The last I saw was that Wilkerson was going to visit here and then commit after the visit. With the two predictions it looked like it was pretty much done. It is concerning that he is going to take other visits. I wonder if IU is being used for our top NIL budget. I wonder if they take our offers and take it to the schools they like better.

What is the news about Wilkerson?

The NIL is getting ridiculous

We have 9 roster spots to fill so we need depth every where. Not everyone coming in will be a starter so we need good backups as well.

We have 4 players on our roster so I wouldn't say we are stacked anywhere.

He was talking about Stemler being an assistant coach in high school not a player

Even if IU hadn't fired Sampson the NCAA gave him a 5 year show cause so it would make it almost impossible for him to remain as the coach. Even if he stayed there would have been so many limitations on him it would made it to hard to compete As for the players he did have some good character players but the bad ones were more prevelent. We had drug dealers and we had guys with major temper problems. We had a recruit get arrested and sent to prison for drugs and other things. It is great that players changed their lives but at the time they represented the University they disgraced it. As for other coaches I felt they were to lenient on the players and should have kicked off those players who got in trouble with the law.

Maybe they are waiting for Woodson to get another job and follow him

I saw the top 20 list and it has Minnesota as 16 so I don't know how that is possible

Buzz Williams is just a strange guy who wants to leave every 6 or so years.

That is a good thing because everyone wants to be the first to report these transactions. That is why I wish some of the guys on here wouldn't come on here and report things like they are a done deal. It just gets the fan base excited and when it doesn't happen then they get frustrated. Nothing is a fine deal until it is signed and announced. Heck there are times the contract has been signed and announced and something happens to change things.

As for Devries it was a huge step up from a power power conference team. I said the only power conference coaches that we could get is like Brownell who is at a lower power conference program. Adams huge step up and probably money Buzz Williams on known to leave every 6 years and that is his philosophy on coaching. He wants to get out before they run you out. Sean Miller same as Devries For the most part what I was saying is that coaches don't make lateral moves and we weren't getting the elite power conference coaches.

Funny you never gave a legitimate reason for them to leave to come here
