Class of '66 Old Fart Posted November 30, 2018 Posted November 30, 2018 Very interesting tweets from Baumgart. The first is in response to a tweet stating Isaiah Stewart had previously removed us from consideration. Yes, before TJD committed. He could always come back into the fold I'd think. TJD is now leading that recruitment and while doubtful, its what I'm hearing. We shall see. Also hearing TJD wants Isaiah Stewart.... it's a more competitive situation now with one less schollie, and if certain people want in on this, they need to jump. thebigweave, Stuhoo and pumpfake 2 1 Quote

Old Fart's 12th post was inside info that Coach Lou Watson had his front yard toilet papered by the IUBB equipment manager. It was pretty choice info. That needs a high five emoji!

A.j. Nigh Posted November 30, 2018 Posted November 30, 2018 So when was the Indy star story saying he wasn’t committing/signing til the spring? Seems like that was just a total play with the media....and I’m totally ok with it!! Stuhoo, thebigweave, Stromboli and 3 others 6 Quote

Uspshoosier Posted November 30, 2018 Author Posted November 30, 2018 The signing period is over, correct. He just signed weeks ago when it was openSent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile appThis happens sometimes. Bol bol and shittu did this last year. I brought this up a couple weeks ago.

Uspshoosier Posted November 30, 2018 Author Posted November 30, 2018 I don’t think I have ever seen a situation where a recruit signed a LOI in secret and then surprised everyone by announcing their commitment a couple of weeks later.Bol bol and Shittu last year Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app Red1 1 Quote

Pure speculation here but maybe he wanted to have a special showcase matchup with his good friend be even more fun and even more anticipated? He clearly had a plan and it involved this night when they are going up against one another. Sent from my Pixel XL using BtownBanners mobile app barrettballer, A.j.

Popular Post Uspshoosier Posted November 30, 2018 Author Popular Post Posted November 30, 2018 This ones personal boys. I’ve watched this kid grow into the Top 15 5 star he is now. He has came a long way from his freshman google wearing years but you could tell early it was there. Sophomore year he improved a little more but ranking services were not on board. I will never forgot being at Westfield the summer going into his junior year I was talking with a person who covers IU for one of the services and I told him I hoped IU offered soon because I think he is going to be good. I said Purdue and Iowa offered recently. He said should IU be in battle for a kid with Purdue and Iowa? IU needs to aim higher. I said in this case yes. TJD worked his butt off and became a top 15 player and it’s been a joy to watch and his senior year will be special to watch. He could of went to MSU or UCLA and I would of been happy for him. He is a class act that takes time for the kids and helps with the youth league along with the other center grove players. Pretty much since the time he visited IU 5 times in a span of a month this was always trending IU’s way. For those that saw this congrats on one of the less stressful recruitments for a fan base when it comes to top 15 player. For those that were stressed out I’m afraid there will never be a recruitment you won’t be stressed out about. Great day to be a Trojan and Hoosier fan Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners BtownStrength, WayneFleekHoosier, HinnyHoosier and 30 others 33 Quote

Agree with this. What I laugh about is getting crapped on for years for saying we needed to recruit from the inside out. NOI! Some said. It doesn't matter where kids are from. Yeah....if you get the right kids; it kinda' does matter. Especially if you can accentuate by going outside the state and get the BEST fits you can find instead of the Stanford Robinson's of the world. A great get for Indiana.
