Exactly. Reports are Tyler Dorsey from Oregon who declared w/ agent has at least one offer from a Greek team for several hundred thousand dollars. For talented kids who can't improve their stock much, it's a hell of a backup plan if the NBA doesn't work out.

Yeah, and you get to spend your twenties living large in Europe. Pretty awesome. 

[Baltimore Hoosier]

Any word on Clifton Moore yet? Doesn't IU have until tomorrow to release him from his LOI?

An acquaintance from New Albany played in the Italian league in the early 80's.Said he got to drive a Maserati and had lots of Italian girlfriends.I could think of worse ways for a guy to spend young adulthood.

Clifton Moore reaffirmed commitment per Brian Snow

Clifton has reaffirmed his commitment, per Brian Snow.

This is big news. Shows how well Archie can sell his vision. All 3 recruits never even talked to other schools.

Damn. Beat me by 2 seconds lol

Really excited about Clifton staying! One thing about Crean, he did have a good eye for under-appreciated talent. Really excited to see Clifton develop into his big potential.

I'll admit, I thought we'd lose Moore.  So when do we get the word on whose scholly's Durham, Smith and Moore are getting?  

Getting these 3 young men to remain committed to IU is also a big feather in CAM's recruiting cap.  If he could convince them (plus Hartman) to stick with the program in the face of the coaching change and obvious oversigned situation, I feel really good that he'll be able to recruit the level of talent we'll need in the future.

JBJ and TB gone to pro options? I don't know where other scholarships open up. I don't see Grant leaving IU.

[Hoosier in NC]

Am I correct that we are currently three over the limit of 13?  Take OG out of the mix and that leaves us two over.  My fear is that the writing is on the wall and TB and JBJ aren't coming back.

Archie can definitely sell his vision. Maybe this means Bryant is going to the draft. I still can't see that though. But I think it definitely means Blackmon is gone for sure

What exactly is Blackmon leaving for?????  D league? maybe play on someones summer league team? China? Greece? France?  How can anybody think he is anything more?

If he's as bad as some say he is I'm not sure why we WOULDN'T want him to leave. Personally, I think he can be a very solid contributor but if he chooses to leave and begin the next stage if life I don't blame him at all. At worst he can probably see the world some and experience a lot of good things all while making a very solid living playing a game he enjoys. It's a win-win for the guy.

Several very recent reports via twitter say he's all in on Indiana.

From Jeremy Price:
Looks like all the #iubb recruits are staying. That means current Hoosiers must be going, pro or otherwise.

I hope you're right Treesh. This team would be really good next season if this were the case

That is what it should be, but I'm guessing JBJ is for sure gone. Not sure on the other. Gelon makes the most sense though.

OG 100%
JBJ 99.9%
TB 85%
Rojo 10%
Some other player 5.01%

I still wonder about Jones too.

Maybe Freddie takes one for the team. One would think Priller would be done with school by now.
