Haralson commented last week about the 3 finalist. "Shrews is an offensive genius. We've broken down so much film together and he's already helped my game." The longer we got away from the visit he had with us the lesser the chance we had. I thought he would've been in the bag with us within the week. I think Shrews beat us. I've been told for two years Sisley wouldn't play with Haralson again. Now when Sisley commits Monday, Haralson retweets it and schedules his ceremony for Wednesday I can't imagine it's to rush and join Sisley. Koehler the ND commit today played AAU ball with Haralson. I don't think it mattered though.

Revenue sharing will probably lead to more structure.

Has either of two other schools offered his dad a job? I mean it's a stretch, but Eric Gordon was headed to Illinois until we pulled that oldie but goodie. Denny Crum kept Alan Houstons dad on payroll for that reason then Tennesssee one-upt him.I don't think Braylon is that caliber of player, but what is the family business he has to focus on?

Haralson scheduling the same day as Sisley's commit. Notre Dame Reibe and Mullins IU.

I'm not sure what Dana Altman can say to him after his IU visit. The one to one with Kenya Hunter prior to the visit was huge and Sisley and he connected well so I heard. I'm feeling like he may be next.

I'm jacked over this one. Walsh should feel really good about this. It gives me faith in future recruiting. Montverde operates like a D1 program down there with their 24hr player development. I'll guess he puts on 20lbs of muscle and will be ready day 1 to contribute. He's a top 30 player in the country. I'm invisioning the possibility of positionless basketball with Mullins, Sisley, Haralson, Tucker and Reneau in 25-26'. Not saying we'd ever start 3 frosh but that's a fun line-up for 10 min a game.

If Haralson and Sisley commit to IU the level of that accomplishment cannot be understated. I'll still need to see it to believe it.

I know alot of people that will be very excited.

Isiah Hill of Pike will be one to watch develop under Jeff Teague.

Will Braylon cancel his UK visit after tomorrow?

When I look at recruiting services I look for Georgia kids because YR is the only coach we have that has proven himself to be a solid recruiter.

IU

He cuts his list to 5 next week. I think we're coming to the end. Perhaps a bit of financial gamesmanship happening. UConn pivoting to Adam's, UK to Acaden Lewis, and my guess is the flight to UNC was enough to kill that and the Duke visit. Unless the Mullins have a case of Dusty fever, which is a thing in Indiana I would say 2-3 weeks and he'll have his presser with the 3 hats and all that.

I think he's the ultimate connector on a really good team. Someone is going to get a heckuva ball player. If Haralson picks IU he's going to Purdue. If Haralson doesn't it's IU.

I hope he develops into the player he can be at IU. Woody will be getting a gift from the Basketball Gods. He's half Alford, half Recker.

I second that.

He's noticeably shorter than Rice. If you you tell me Rice is 6'5 I'm super excited.

He's been the most calculated kid I've ever seen with his moves starting with which aau team to which academy to transfer to, schools he's seriously considering. No on has put in the work Woody has put in but I thought he would've committed to IU by now if he was coming.

Brother I've said it all along. Of everyone that tests the process next draft, everyone on our team, he will far and away score higher across the board than anyone else we have. He's a legit 6'3", he's a play maker. He'll be special this year and there will be alot of Haliburton comparisons. Traore from France and probably Harper will be the only pgs ahead of him. Carlyle at 6'0" barefoot needs a year of full-time pg, and a softer 2026 draft to go where wants to go. JMO

I've done a complete 180 on this guy. A year ago I was not impressed. He's 2 inches taller and plays like it now. If we can get him on campus. Kenya Hunter needs to dig in on this one.

Mark Zanetto I have never spoken to in my life and did zero background research on. I still havent but appears from reading this thread i may be less than credible. Now I do know Brandon Ramsey a bit and he's rock solid. UK is moving forward as it they are out. Acaden Lewis is the focus to pair with Jasper Johnson. He mentioned that Dan Hurley has done a masterful job. Does he want to stay home so bad that he picks Woody over Hurley. I personally think IU will have a better year than both UConn and Kentucky but we know that before the early signing period. Sept 20th is going to be a massive deal and hopefully we come out on top selling all three guys on how they can hang a banner together and get to the league.

I think Reibe is ours. Oregon can't win that fight with us after Ware. Bundalo is going to UConn, and Kansas has Bidunga apprenticing a year behind Dickinson. If, by chance he were to choose Kansas, we would be at the top of the list to land Bidunga in the portal.

UConn recruiting insider says Mullins won't leave the state of Indiana.

The evolution of offense is being reflected in the recruiting.

The evolution of the offense looks like, perhaps a legit 4 out. A Tucker/Haralson type of wing playmaker, a dynamic point guard that facilitates and can go get a bucket, two shooters with a couple of interchangeable bigs.
