Player and Recruit Retention News/Discussion & Potential Transfers

[VO5]

I think they could be a week or so away. It’s IU’s spring break so they’ll get to talk to their families and have time away from campus.

Do we think Juwan will test NBA waters without hiring an agent? Or just be focused on returning?

He has commented that he needs to work on "everything," and my gut tells me he thinks next season can be a special one for him and this team; so regardless of what path he takes, I would bet he stays

[goonaha]

Everyone's favorite transfer candidate Clif Moore is in Florida with Durham and Smith, so I doubt that decision has happened.

The way it's set up now, getting the nba advice is the smart thing to do.

And he should test the waters with the system in place but I'm confident he'll be back.

Haven't heard anything yet which I find a little surprising, don't we usually start hearing stuff around this time once the games are over? Or could it just be everybody is enjoying Spring Break and we will start to hear stuff after that?

I'm guessing that if the players are on spring break, next week is when Archie and each player will discuss how they fit in the program moving forward.

I read somewhere that Archie would meet with each player individually after spring break. Don't ask where cause I don't remember.

Gives any players thinking of leaving time to unwind from the season's grind and really think about their IU future and how Archie sees their IU future.  Mildly surprised - pleasantly so - that we've not already had any announced departures.  Would have expected any really disgruntled player to have already announced.

I think we project a lot of our on disgruntled-ness on what we think individual players might do.

.....or there might not be anything to hear? 
 

Yeah may not me anything to hear

Note to rebelcc but there's others out there as well.  I've noticed several unfamiliar names with posts in the last week or so and noted that several have been btb members for quite some time but just haven't posted very often.   Really glad to see you people taking a more active role as posters and hope you continue.  That's what makes this board so special and the best there is.  Thank you.

Evansville paper reporting Indiana and UCLA have reached out to Taylor. Dude averaged over 20 points a game. We will take that in a heartbeat.

Sounds like he’d be a heck of a get. Who does Alford think he is?   

[HoosierFan1994]

Taylor played at Ohio for a year and then transferred to Evansville. UE just never had enough talent to support him. I don't think he'd average 20 points a game at IU, but he would be very good! 

[VO5]

I like it a lot. Billed as a shooter that can create his own shot a little bit. We desperately need shooters and this guy could play at the 3 alongside Romeo. Let’s get him

[taco corp]

Bring on Taylor. I would love to see this be our team that steps on the floor next fall.

Right. I don't get the "either/or" comments around the other boards and Twitterverse.
