Had we extended an actual offer I'd be much more concerned. A good coach has to keep kicking the tires and keep doors open if commitments don't fall in line as expected. No offer yet and a new 247 article out today has 0 mention of IU. North Carolina, Florida and even Kentucky got a mention as teams expressing interest now Stuhoo 1 Quote

Stuhoo Posted October 31, 2020 Posted October 31, 2020 While it would be nice to get Muhammad, we have Leal, Galloway, and Franklin with a similar projected position. I fully expect us to hear about us approaching a big or two in the next few weeks, and I’m thinking a transfer big is a likelihood for 2021. The fan base is gonna need to adjust expectations from shiny ranked young kids, to what it will take to win. Gonna need a Bielfeldt, not a Fitzner! woodenshoemanHoosierfan 1 Quote
scoot Posted October 31, 2020 Posted October 31, 2020 Champions win with strong guard play and not so much dominant super star bigs. You do need bigs to defend, rebound and occassionally score. Sent from my SM-G950U using BtownBanners mobile app hoosierbgh 1 Quote

Yea, based on all that I don’t have my hopes up for Aminu. It just feels to me he ends up somewhere else. And true, if you study the roster we need a TJD replacement. I think, no matter who we get, that’s a drop off. I’d love to have a Kofi Cockburn type Center some day. Wish we had him on this team. We may truly be title contenders with a guy like him at the 5 this year. Not sure who or what Archie can find out there in the weeds.

ebridges24 Posted October 31, 2020 Posted October 31, 2020 What are the chances Joey pays another year? I know he's not a TJD, but he's smart, dependable and a good rebounder. He could be a 10 and 10 guy. Quote
Honkyman Posted October 31, 2020 Posted October 31, 2020 I can't imagine Joey Brunk hangs around for a 6th year of college.. Quote

The saving grace MIGHT be the new free agency that the NCAA is creating. With transfers and extended eligibility this was probably the year to miss on some High school targets.....at least that is what I'm telling myself ALASKA HOOSIER and thebigweave 2 Quote
Class of '66 Old Fart Posted November 11, 2020 Posted November 11, 2020 From 247Sports: Five Classes that could surge after the early signing period. Indiana Prospects: Aminu Mohammed, Mason Miller As of now the Hoosiers have one lone commitment in the class of 2021 with four-star prospect Logan Duncomb. One of Indiana's top prospects is five-star Aminu Mohammed. Mohammed will most likely not sign early but may potentially enroll in a program for the second semester of 2020-2021 season. Mohammed has taken a visit and keeps them in high regard putting them deeply in the mix. With that being said Indiana is among Kansas State and SMU of the teams that have open scholarship spots, although spots can open up elsewhere via a transfer. The Hoosiers also remain one of the top contenders to potentially land 6-foot-9 power forward Mason Miller. https://247sports.com/college/indiana/Article/Five-Classes-that-could-surge-after-the-early-signing-period-Basketball-recruiting-154599159/?fbclid=IwAR0JVIjL56_H_f6v89vWMgwMQdu0Rit1mnfoUriVvHCSpwemcd7x3Qc_FCs HoosierAloha 1 Quote

WayneFleekHoosier Posted November 12, 2020 Posted November 12, 2020 Idk. Fitzner 2.0. Prove me wrong, Mustapha. My instincts were right about this one all along considering the timing, regarding Trey Kaufman. Sent from my iPad using BtownBanners Quote
