I would like to have at least one, but I’m confident Arch will close some of these top players. We are in good position with many and players are waiting. After we have a great season, these quality top 50 type players will commit sooner. Plus we will have the advantage of recruiting them for a longer period of time.

I’ll panic when:

We miss

1. (TJD/Stewart)
2. (Hurt)
3. (Brooks/Watford)

I wish we had a better guard in the mix because I don’t love those that are left that we are after. But if we get 2 of the above it will be an A+ recruiting class. If we get 1 of these guys and let’s say 2 of (Newman, Shadrick, Bouknight, Franklin) it would be a B or B+ class.

But until TJD, Brooks, Watford, Hurt, Stewart commit I’m not going to panic. We miss all 5 of these guys.......I won’t be a happy guy.

What about Zeke?

What about Zeke?

He won’t make me panic. We were on him later. I’ve fallen for the Kansas love and don’t think he’ll be a Hoosier.

Yep way too early to worry unless other dominos start happening like you posted. This way every year on forums. I agree on your five.

To be fair he appears to be a back up to a back up option for them. So no keys delivered yet

I could see Purdue getting Newman and Franklin both.

They’ll have a shot. Newman and Franklin will be on campus next weekend in addition to Isaiah Thompson and Mason Gillis.

Purdue can have the second tier talent in the state if IU gets the five star talent.

I'm not sure I would call Newman second tier regardless of his "star" rating. He is a foundational multi-year player with a very desirable skill set and good size. Players like Newman equal program consistency over time.

Due to my mother’s health, my family and I have decided that it is best for me that I return to Valparaiso, IN and re-enroll at Valparaiso High School

Wow that’s too bad and a serious sea change in his plans.

Wow.  Hope everything is ok with mama, but also glad he comes back to Indiana to play his senior year.

Assuming we get Ramsey hoping he picks Xavier 

[ccgeneral 38,084]

He's on an OV to Purdue this weekend.

@JWellsTH: Valparaiso four-star guard Brandon Newman tells TheHoosier.com he's working on visiting #iubb next weekend. https://indiana.rivals.com/news/indiana-basketball-four-star-brandon-newman-lists-top-four

[Stuhoo 75,378]

A bird in the hand? It would be nice if he helped to either pressure Ramsey into an early October commitment, or if Newman committed soon thereafter.

And this bird in the hand is an excellent outside shooter.

 

[WayneFleekHoosier 46,691]

I feel like I am going to have to wait until the end of this class to really evaluate it. Lots of top 3s and 4s.

Newman is a solid player. I like him better than Franklin. And because of that I selfishly don’t want him at Purdue or OSU which indirectly tells me I’d be happy to get him.

Ramsey is a different kind of player.

Seems like a 3 or 4 person class.
