  1. my daily reminder to everyone....I hate Dan Dakich..... Lets go Yiggy!
  2. Uhhh ok that came out of nowhere
  3. I totally agree with this take. Need some shooters off the bench for sure....id like to have more depth than we have had in years past....seems like we get a starting 5....then fall off tremendously anything past the starting squad
  4. from insidethehall.com Darren Harris, a 6-foot-5 wing who played the last two seasons at Duke, committed to IU basketball today. Harris has two seasons of eligibility remaining. He also considered Virginia out of the portal. Over two seasons with the Blue Devils, Harris averaged 2.8 points, 0.9 rebounds and 0.4 assists in 8.3 minutes per game. Listed at 6-foot-5 and 195 pounds from Herndon, Virginia, Harris attended Paul VI High School and played for Team Takeover on the Nike Elite Youth Basketball League (EYBL) circuit. IU assistant coach Kenny Johnson has strong ties to Paul VI and Team Takeover. AD IU is buying a potential breakout rather than proven production with Harris, who was buried on a talented Duke depth chart for the past two seasons. A member of Duke’s monster 2024 recruiting class that included three lottery picks in Cooper Flagg, Kon Knueppel and Khaman Maluach, Harris struggled to find consistent minutes in Durham under Jon Scheyer. He hit the transfer portal after two seasons. As a high school prospect, Harris was the No. 39 player nationally, according to the 247Sports Composite rankings. In his freshman season, Harris played sparingly and averaged two points and 1.1 rebounds in six minutes per game on a Duke team that finished 35-4 and lost to Houston in the Final Four. He scored a season-high seven points in a 93-49 win against Mount St. Mary’s in the opening round of the NCAA tournament. As a sophomore, Harris played more but was still on the fringe of the rotation. The Blue Devils were again one of the nation’s premier teams, finishing 35-3 before falling in a stunning collapse against UConn in the Elite Eight. Over 36 games, he averaged 3.3 points, 0.8 rebounds and 0.4 assists in 9.7 minutes per game. He reached double figures in scoring three times, including 15 points against Army, 11 against Lipscomb and 16 against Notre Dame. Billed as a shooter out of high school, Harris struggled from the perimeter over 57 career games at Duke. He is 28-for-91 on 3s for his career, which is 30.8 percent and 38-for-55 from the free-throw line, a 69.1 percent mark. The IU coaching staff is taking a buy-low approach with Harris, who will get a chance for more consistent minutes and a more defined role in a revamped rotation in Bloomington, where 3-point shooting is a major part of the offensive game plan under Darian DeVries.
  5. Sorry @Class of '66 Old Fart....did not mean to steal your thunder!!!!!!!!!
  6. from insidethehall.com: Jaeden Mustaf, a 6-foot-6 wing who played the last two seasons at Georgia Tech, committed to IU basketball today out of the transfer portal. Mustaf has two seasons of eligibility remaining and took an official visit to Bloomington over the weekend. Over two seasons with the Yellow Jackets, Mustaf averaged 9.4 points, 3.7 rebounds, two assists and 0.7 steals in 26.2 minutes per game. He started 33 times in 55 appearances at Georgia Tech and was the third-leading scorer for the Yellow Jackets in the 2025-26 season. Mustaf, the son of the late Jerrod Mustaf, who played in the NBA and was a first-round draft pick, is originally from Bowie, Maryland and played at Overtime Elite in high school. Before Overtime Elite, Mustaf played at Carmel Christian School in Matthews, North Carolina and at DeMatha High School in Hyattsville, Maryland, which produced former IU All-American and No. 2 NBA draft pick Victor Oladipo. He was the No. 59 player in the final 247Sports Composite rankings for the 2024 class. He visited IU as a high school player under the previous coaching staff. After a freshman season at Georgia Tech in which he struggled with his efficiency, Mustaf showed improvement in his second season on a Yellow Jacket team that was the worst in the ACC and missed the conference tournament. In 26 games as a freshman at Georgia Tech, Mustaf shot only 40.4 percent on 2s and 34.4 percent on 3s on 32 attempts. He did show an ability to draw fouls and get to the line, as evidenced by a strong free-throw rate (FTA/FGA) of 45.9 percent in his first season. That continued in his second season, as he posted a free-throw rate of 47.6 overall and 49 percent in ACC play, ranking 10th in the league. He is a career 72.2 percent free-throw shooter on 194 attempts. Mustaf shot 44.6 percent on 2s as a sophomore and 38.9 percent on 3s (21-for-54). That’s not a significant enough volume to classify Mustaf as a reliable perimeter threat, but if he can shoot in the mid-30s percentage-wise and also act as a slasher who can get to the rim and draw fouls, he could be a helpful addition to IU’s wing rotation.
  7. agreed. We cant just be a paper tiger though. I wanna see what coaching staff can do with a higher talent roster. Still a lot to prove
