2020 General Recruiting Thread

[Class of '66 Old Fart 84,120]

The new 247Sports rankings are out: Anthony Leal is No. 109 and Trey Galloway is No. 110.

Since they're outside the top 100, is the sky falling?

Isn't that about where Phinisee was or maybe even higher?

I wonder what caused the fall for Cross, the kid balled out this summer right?

Man 9 spots and 10 spots away from having couple 4 star top 100 kids according to 247 instead we get a couple 4 star kids outside the top 100 according to 247.

I do know that Franklin has been running some point to just have another ball-handler in the future. 

That’s good to know he’s getting some run at point. If Durham and Franklin show enough this season running point we might not need a 2020 point. Lander in 2021 would be huge though.

Jaden Ivey jumped 43 spots to 78. Possibly the biggest riser.

For the record, ESPN has Cross at 80 in their latest projections. Not sure what he was before that and not saying one website is better than the other, just stating.

I think Geronimo is since he went from unranked to 87

That one was staring me right in the face... good call.

I’d love to get Garcia. He’s a 5 star now.

Yes, him and TJD sounds like a great combo to me.

He would be a big get for sure. I’m sure he’s option 1 for a big, with possibly Loveday being 2nd?! A lot of good options in 2021.

^^ I’d really like to land a big in this class with Davis graduating. Garcia would be amazing, Loveday would be extremely nice too.

Wouldn’t be my preference, but if the staff desires that kind of roster makeup, I can see it. Would rather see 1 or the other, my minimally informed opinion would be Geronimo, and a big, preferably with rim protection skills. 

This is the way I’m leaning, right now. I’d like Geronimo, good shooter with length and athleticism. The final spot I’d take either Garcia or Loveday to replace Davis.

Reality is it’ll be Cross or Geronimo and it’ll likely be whoever decides first. Likely Cross if I was to guess. Then one of the other pg’s or bigs being recruited. Hopefully Garcia, Love, or Loveday.

I had to do some scrolling to find this thread but it seems to be the most appropriate. With Galloway, Leal, and Geronimo in the fold, which one or two recruits in this class are the most likely to fall into IU’s lap?

Nobody will "fall into IU’s lap" but I imagine the pressure on Garcia will ramp up from several directions. Leal and Galloway both know him from the AAU circuit and I assume the staff is making him a priority. He will have Duke and UK calling soon I'm sure so it won't be easy.

[RatpigHoosier 1,022]

Probably used the wrong phrase there. I would love to get Garcia but I’m concerned with some of the perceived interest from the big $chool$. I haven’t heard squat about Diarra or some of the other PGs lately. Really hoping we’re still in the mix with some of them. I need to look into Loveday a little more. For some reason that idea seems kinda meh to me, but that is coming from an uninformed standpoint and also by comparing him to Garcia. I don’t see us going with both, nor would I want us to.
