He's not ranked on Rivals. Looks like he's 168 on 247.

That may change depending on how he does this summer. I don't think recruiting analysts were out watching his high school games.

What I really like about the offers we have out in the 2019 class is that regardless of the position they play, they all play with an edge, they are tough, and seem to be very confident in themselves while all being team first guys. These are the types of players that are needed to make a special team.

It’s just a message board dude. It’s meant for discussion

I know....it’s not like I seriously think he could jinx it.  If I did think it could be jinxed, I’d be guaranteeing he wouldn’t be coming to IU.  It’s all good.

I think you can see that Coach Miller is looking for specific skill sets. He knows how he wants to play and goes after kids that fit that model. We, as fans, want all the highest rated kids we can get, but I believe CAM knows he needs three and four year guys to provide the backbone of the program. That's a formula that can produce high level consistency. Once we get through these first two or three years, I fully expect to be very happy with the quality of basketball going forward.

Very interesting tweet. Not sure how credible the source is but we shall see.

A friend of NA Coach Shannon (and therefore probably Coach Schilling) and yes, quite credible.

Obviously we can’t take all three but it is a good “problem” to have.

We could. Juwan will be gone, open scholly now and then Romeo if he is one and done.If Romeo stays to play with those people than someone will easily transfer with 4 5 stars looking at the bulk of the minutes.

Oh my gosh, are we Kentucky or Duke?

I can’t even fathom the level of awesomeness of a class like that. I just can’t.......

If that is true, IU has to take all three of those guys. That’d be insane. Of course, IU already has two of those in the bag

Still am fantasizing about a Hurt Reclass

[HinnyHoosier]

I stand by the importance of Ed Schilling's presence on this staff. I think most of us do now.

Don't slouch on Ostrom. He helped recruit the last repeat champions 

[Brass Cannon]

Interesting Brooks isn't listed there considering Schillings history with the Brooks family.

That class would be a....phenomenal one.

 

Sorry, couldn't resist.

I agree and I don't mean to downplay the rest of the staff's importance.

There had just been some discussion early in the new regime's tenure that Schilling wasn't producing as expected.

Well oddly he definitely led the Romeo recruitment initially but then turned it over to Ostrom. 

Kinda looks like he might be the guy to set us up and the Archie and Ostrom knock them down.
