(2019) PF Trayce Jackson-Davis to INDIANA

[BGVille Hoosierfan 2,909]

ESPN hasn't hyped Trayce enough for there to be a national audience here.  And anyone with a cell phone can stream the commitment.  I think Rabjohns keeps his real information close to the vest, especially if recruits ask him to do so.  And so if he shows up before the game it's all ready for a broadcast to a large audience.  
 
FWIW I've seen the rumors around as well.  They include that Trayce is committing tonight, Trayce is now favoring UCLA pursuant to a teammates family member, and that it's not Trayce that is committing tonight, but Keion.  No way to know if there's any real information out there, but I'd think any insider is pretty gunshy at this point to share, given how many false alarms they've had.  Trayce has basically laid waste to the entire recruiting insider industry.  Not faulting him.  But this is a boy-who-cried-wolf situation.  I don't think any of the insiders were making things up along the way.
 
Just the same, there are still plenty of the traditional insiders and others who still report full confidence that Trayce will be a Hoosier.  The crystal ball reflects the same.  

I can tell you with full confidence it is NOT UCLA...

I am in JD Campbell’s (Men’s Basketball SID) class and he told our class yesterday to expect some “very positive news surrounding IU basketball” in the next 24-48 hours... Could be a commitment. Could be injury related. He wouldn’t give in and tell us.

^^And right there is my personal favorite post that I've seen in awhile!^^

Can't beat a JD Campbell breadcrumb drop if ya ask me. Don't care who the news is about..."very positive news very soon" from JD is good enough for me.

By the way; 24-48 hours from that Thursday class means Friday night or Saturday.

Yea I'm hoping that is about Hunter more than anything else.

If that was the "very positive news?"

I'd be thrilled!

(but I can't imagine that would be it)

With the dearth of information on Jerome, it's hard to know what would classify as news.  We've never known any kind of prognosis or timetable to work against.  So I'm going against this one.

 

Sooooo it's a commitment.  Another rumor I forgot to post was that Trayce's brother was telling people to be sure they attend the game on Friday to watch the commitment.  Oh and then just various insiders posting cryptic smiley faces.  All of this is 100% consistent with the other junk we've been beholden to throughout this recruitment, and so I don't give it any more credence than anything else I've heard.  Which is to say, I trust it entirely, because it confirms my biases.  Thinking I might drive on down to Greenwood tonight, just in case.  Even if/when Trayce disappoints me (again), my achy-breaky heart can still watch him and Armaan.

Perhaps as they leave the court Armann can hand TJD an IU hat to put on.  And there we have a commitment. One can wish.

[Stuhoo 79,798]

 

For me?

I've read enough...I think it's tonight.

Or, perhaps Archie and staff will be there again and with Armaan there will be one huge party after?!?!  

[akinnaird24 517]

I have a buddy that coaches at CG, and I asked him when TJD was going to commit. All I got back was, "It's supposed to be a packed house tonight." 

Count me in for tonight

[Brass Cannon 24,271]

Well goes whose going to get nothing extra done at work tonight lol

[JSHoosier 19,851]

I'll gladly take the commitment if it happens, but I'm not getting my hopes up of it being tonight.

[akinnaird24 517]

You would think TJD would announce that he was making his decision tonight if he was though. Guess we will find out soon enough.

[BGVille Hoosierfan 2,909]

Get excited Hoosier Nation!!!

We have heard he is committing several times before tonight, so it is kind of hard to believe it when people say it now.  I'm not doubting the sources people have or that they are telling their truth, just don't want to get too high and it not happen.

Hey, I want him back as much as anyone, but he's not going to step into the lineup and immediately start giving us 25 min/game.  He's had at least 1 surgery and I thought there were some suggestions there may have been a second.  His conditioning is shot, etc.  Psychologically it's a big boost, but he's still going to be weeks away from any meaningful minutes.   But if that is the big news, then it certainly suggests we'll have him available for the latter half of the B1G schedule.

I’d be happy to eat crow over this but I highly doubt Traycs commits tonight
