Brass Cannon Posted August 18, 2018 Posted August 18, 2018 Fairly certain all 4 years I was at IU they set records for largest freshman class. I think they intentionally try to set a new record. Quote

I think they want to allow all the in-state students they always have but want to really increase the lucrative out-of state and international student enrollment. Quote

That kind of size hasn't been wearing the Cream and Crimson in quite some time, or so it seems to me. HoosierHoops1, thebigweave, ellen.walden and 1 other 4 Quote

I believe Jake has a solid wingspan too Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app Quote

I believe Jake has a solid wingspan too Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app I have a vague memory back when IU was recruiting Jake that he would've been ranked much higher if he were a few inches taller. Well? He's now a few inches taller. EDIT: Article from August, 2015 on 6'8" sophomore Jake: Although none of the D-I programs he’s been in contact with have extended scholarship offers — Forrester says more than 15 have shown interest — the message he heard repeatedly during the summer months was that he needed another year of seasoning.Particularly since Forrester, who sports a remarkably long wingspan, says his doctor recently suggested that he might sprout another three or four inches before he’s done growing. So, couple the added length with his mobility and passion for the game and one can imagine why college programs are intrigued. And, from an article one year ago: What are you at right now, weight-wise? Well, I'm like 6'9" and 215 right now. I'd like to be 6'10" and maybe 225 by next year. Joe Klingler 1 Quote

Jam Posted August 21, 2018 Posted August 21, 2018 Thought I remembered that Jake’s Dad claimed he was 6’10” last year. Guess he shrunk or we don’t measure hair. Quote
