Player and Recruit Retention News/Discussion & Potential Transfers

[AZ Hoosier 6,569]

Rumors circulating that OG is "leaning" to enter the draft... not really "breaking news", and most likely, not directly related to Crean's firing... but facts is facts.

Dang it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

OG will be gone. Can't imagine he'd be back. Has too much to risk. If he comes back and has a down year he won't be drafted. He'll still be drafted first round right now.

Agreed.  I can see have a career much like Jared Jeffries' career - okay offensive player whose defensive abilities facilitate a 10-year run in the League.

OG Andy JBJ I have accepted. Really want TB and Hartman back though. 

Then with Davis and hopefully Morgan, Green and Rojo our new coach will have a pretty stellar core

Hartman all but confirmed gone at this point. 

 

EDIT: Unless we get our homerun hire and he can convince everyone to stay, I don't see Collin staying.

I believe Hartman when he said goodbye.

[Brass Cannon 24,271]

Really I was hoping he was leaving because of Crean

Next year might be kind of rough, unless we have a stellar hire that can get some late recruits and/or grad transfers.

Hartman is definitely gone. I went to school with his fiancé and know her dad. Her dad said that he missed this entire year because of a torn ACL.. and that he won't be returning to Bloomington next year because he has an awesome job offer that he can't turn down.

Lot of other schools have already had underclassmen announced transfers as well as grad transfers announced.  All quiet at IU.  Anyone else mildly surprised?  Yes, I know they don't know who our next coach will be but I would have expected announcements from any players who were that tied to FCTC's apron strings or who were just that unhappy at IU to have already announced.

Smart to wait.

Odd for sure. UVA has had 3. Looks like our new coach will have a chance at a decent core.

Wonder if he is thinking about declaring.

You get to work your entire adult life, you don't get many chances at playing high D1 college ball.. the kid will have plenty of job offers, regardless of when he wants to take one. I'm happy for him either way, but somebody should talk him into playing. He could easily regret not playing down the road... or maybe that's just how I would feel if I had the opportunity lol.

My first thought was that it meant it was time to look elsewhere.

Eyes
A pair of eyes, glancing slightly to the left on most platforms. The Google version of this emoji previously showed only a single eye, despite the name of this character being eyes (plural).

Sometimes used to indicate ‘pervy eyes’ to indicate approval of an attractive photo posted online; or ‘shifty eyes’ to convey a deceitful act.

He meant "look the **** out. We're here."

I think Blackmon comes back

[Zach Farmer 106]

I really don't care if Blackmon comes back or not to be honest. I'm more concerned about keeping players like Davis and Green than keeping a guy that guards worse than a folding chair.
