2020 General Recruiting Thread

Maybe Archie has come to the conclusion that you’re just not going to win consistently in the B1G without an inside presence. Haarms, Wesson, Murphy, Ward. Maybe he’s had to shift his focus to “Positionless + 1”.

I think positionless basketball has different meanings. I see a lot of teams run “positionless” lineups with a true point and true 5 with 3 wings. Golden State is one that’s had Bogut, Cousins, and a few others at the 5 and Curry at the point.

This is the young fella that blocks an inordinate amount of shots; 7.3 bpg last year and 7.5 bpg this year.

He's up to 6'10/11" too.

Seems like a really nice kid:

Yes he does and his ability to block shots changed the game versus Heritage Hills, IMO.  This was the first time seeing him in person but he moved pretty well for 6'10" or whatever they list him as.

I like this. IU could use a legitimate shot blocker going forward.

Davion Bradford and his Mehlville teammates were beaten by CBC (Caleb Love) 69-56 in a Missouri Class 5 quarterfinal game.  Bradford picked up 3 fouls in the 1s Q.  He still finished with 16 pts. on 7-8 FG and 2-4 FT and did not foul out.

Archie should look into 2020 SG Adam Miller from Illinois. He’s currently an Illinois lean but Miller recruited Josh Cunninghan from the same high school - Morgan Park - a few years ago. Rated top 25 in the class by ESPN, and one of the few located in the Midwest

Really like the idea of Lander playing up a year. Looking forward to seeing how this team does

I do too.  Really can show you just how good a kid may be but also shows you he's not afraid to compete at a higher level.

Wish that IU had a few more scholarships available for 2020 to play with. I think Leal and Galloway would be two guys that actually want to wear the candy stripes and would be kids who would work hard and hustle. Right now I’d be surprised if the staff brings even one of them on

Don't be surprised if we get one and if things work out right, we get both.

I'd be happy to get both.  Neither is an individual game changer but would be excellent teammates and would give you 110% when on the floor.

I guess it’ll be interesting to see if this recruiting strategy works out over the next 3 years or so.

Archie won with mid level talent at Dayton. Maybe unlike his brother he can make that work at Indiana.

PS- I realize these guys are high mid-levels.

I think they both would be easily attainable for the staff. Sounds like both would commit if given the opportunity. I’m just curious if there will be enough scholarships for both. For some reason both just remind of a classic type Indiana player and both seem to really want to be there.

MSU adds composite #31 and number 5 PG of the class.

Jalen Terry PG 2020.

Little piece of trivia on Ben Carlson (Cottage Grove, MN) whom we've had more than a passing interest in.

 Jake‏Verified account @jakeweingarten 

Nebraska’s Fred Hoiberg has reaffirmed four-star junior Ben Carlson’s offer, he told @Stockrisers.  Ben’s father, Marc, played college ball at Iowa State with Hoiberg.
