Old Friend Posted March 10, 2019 Posted March 10, 2019 5 hours ago, BGleas said: I’d almost look at it this way, would you have have Morgan, Langford, Fitzner and McRoberts with a freshmen Phinisee, or TJD, Brooks, Franklin and a healthy Hunter with a sophomore Phiniseee? That's kind of how I look at it, also. Morgan will be a huge loss. I don't personally believe Romeo will be as huge a loss as he would be a huge gain if he happened to return. Franklin has a similar skill set; even as I don't think he'll put up the same numbers; and add Hunter and an improved, stronger, more experienced Phinisee/Durham; Romeo won't be missed nearly as much as Morgan's post offense and rebounding will. Davis + Brooks is far better than the rest of the seniors, so I'm with you on this thought process. 8bucks, BGleas and BornAHoosierFan 3 Quote
Walking Boot of Doom Posted March 10, 2019 Posted March 10, 2019 If Deron is here and healthy, Race plays a full season, and TJD comes in ready to contribute, I think we’ll miss Morgan, but be fine. Phin playing a whole season as a sophomore will cover any guard losses, in my opinion. Brooks will be icing. I suspect next years team will be similar, but have a 20+ win season if healthy instead of what we saw this year. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners Quote

Popular Post HoosierFan1994 Posted March 17, 2019 Popular Post Posted March 17, 2019 Instead of talking about a recruit that didn't choose IU, let's talk about one that did. TJD's high school career came to an end yesterday. Fell one game short of the state finals. I know nothing about Center Grove basketball but he has to be the greatest player ever at that school. 3 sectionals, 1 regional. I'm sure many awards locally. Should be 2x All-State and Mr. Basketball. I am really excited for TJD to get to IU. I think he will have a solid Freshman season and will be up for FOY. I think he could be All B1G good by his sophomore year. IU hasn't had back to back Mr. Basketball's since the late 90s. That is a good sign for Archie Miller. TJD is going to have a huge part in bringing this program back along with Rob, Al, Armaan, and the rest of this crew. He is going to be a good ambassador for this program. Rob and TJD could very well be one of the best duos in the country in two years. Class of '66 Old Fart, GloryDays, RealIU and 19 others 18 4 Quote

Beyond being an honor for the players selected, the McD game is always awful, even by all-star game standards. Unless the player you want to see is a starter, you're lucky to even know if they're playing. The broadcast seems to pick out one or two players and dedicate 80-90% of their time talking (pimping) them. That stat line for TJD is pretty solid for being practically forgotten by the coaches (as it seems our guys usually are). I didn't watch the game, so if I'm wrong please correct me. ebridges24 1 Quote
pumpfake Posted March 28, 2019 Posted March 28, 2019 Does anybody know how much contact Trayce has with Dale, or if he gives him instruction or practices with him? Quote

Popular Post Class of '66 Old Fart Posted April 6, 2019 Popular Post Posted April 6, 2019 (edited) From Center Grove Sports Network - CG’s Trayce Jackson-Davis leads the South All-Stars to a 154-135 win over the North All-Stars at Martinsville HS. TJD also won the ”Dunk Contest”. He won it by jumping over someone on his final dunk. TJD must have been impressive. Doyel's got an article coming per his tweet: The boys’ North/South all-star game started and I had no idea what I was writing. After five minutes of watching IU signee Trayce Jackson-Davis, I knew. Update: TJD had 32 pts. to lead all scorers. Edited April 6, 2019 by Class of '66 Old Fart TJD Point Total HoosierAloha, HoosierHoops1, mookied39 and 6 others 9 Quote

I say he as an 11pt 6rb average as a freshman and only gets better. If he develops a 3 point shot he will be gone in two years. Quote

RatpigHoosier Posted April 12, 2019 Posted April 12, 2019 Don’t misunderstand me, I’m stoked about TJD coming to IU, I just hope his calm demeanor isn’t Romeo-esque too much. There were times I wondered if that dude was a droid. Some real dunking power around the rim is sorely needed so I can’t wait to see how his presence translates to the B1G. Stoic demeanor and vicious dunks will be ok with me. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners Quote
