woodenshoemanHoosierfan Posted July 15, 2018 Posted July 15, 2018 At least our 4th choice, so to speak, would be a top 30 recruit and not #330; that was becoming the rule under the previous version of leadership.

Sent from my SM-J700T using TapatalkNo we didn’t. We literally got our first commit a year ago yesterday. Wait a week and then we can freak out we aren’t on the same timeline as last year.

Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile appLast year was definitely a different recruiting year where a ton of top rated players came off the board early. This year only 11 of the top 50 players have committed and 26 of the top 100. Only 2 teams USC and UCLA have more then 2 commitments so far. You are definitely right this fan base and recruiting doesn’t go well for some lol. I would hope some people would wait until the early signing period before they started freaking out about the 2019 class Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app mamasa, moyemayhem, mdn82 and 3 others 6 Quote

He doesn't excite you? A 5 star Indiana kid who was on Team USA Under 18 team, and most likely a Burger Boy.......and he doesn't excite you?

He puts himself in a great position to get a lot of rebound dunks, that's much better than getting a rebound and starting another offensive possession, or worse yet, not getting the rebound because he didn't crash the glass. In the vids I have watched he seems to be a little old school and uses the glass for a lot of baby hooks and finishing moves. I like him a lot and I want him at Indiana.

I wish every year we would wait until the early signing period until they freak out. Recruiting is very seldom the issue at IU. It’s the coaches. When the recruiting becomes a problem the coach is on his way out. That is far from what is happening here. It used to be August or even September before people freaked. It seems with the great job Old Fart and others have done with AAU, and others with recruiting people want instant gratification and just flip out when it doesn’t happen. Even those that claim others should have more testicular fortitude. I wish they would enjoy the process more and realize we are going to have a top 10-20 class most likely with a chance to be better.Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app thebigweave and woodenshoemanHoosierfan 2 Quote

Just said that there is a lot of speculation that he will end up at IU but that is not true. He is open to everyone. He said not sure where those rumors came from. TJD even said something like this also. HoosierTrav and Iugradman 2 Quote
