Im jealous of the football program right now, I want our recruit run dang it!

How often has that EVER been said about IUFB?!

I suspect this fall will be exciting for Basketball.

Jerome Hunter could make a push for a starting position by the end of the season. Let’s hope so because if he does develop quickly, IU could be a dangerous team.

Have heard he is impressing thus far

Jerome and Romeo, in Cook Hall at midnight. Both made quick Instagram posts, 5 min apart. Can't tell if anyone else was there. 

 

One of the 'insiders' reported that Romeo has called his dad raving about Jerome, how good he is. Maybe these two have an iron-sharpens-iron thing going here.

And Al in there before sunrise! I love it!

Wow! It's really looking like the internal competition for playing time is making players go the extra mile

So very excellent! Thanks Strom!!!!

The team wasn't half bad last year, and that was with major minutes going to the less experienced and less able (Freddie as the  starting center, Collin with major injuries).

Our talent level is about to skyrocket.

I can testify that Justin Smith was in Assembly Hall this morning by 7:30 since he followed me to work.

Great to see the guys putting in the work.

Curious who the insider is as my post above yours was coming from that same info/story about Romeo calling telling his dad that Jerome is a stud but was told not to tell those details...

SIAP, but Rabjohns said if he had to pick starters today it would be:

1- Green

2- Langford

3- McRoberts

4- Smith

5- Morgan

I think most of us agree that this is our best/most versatile lineup. I love the mesh of talent there and McRoberts is the perfect guy to plug in at the 3 because of his unselfishness.

If Green and Smith make the jumps we expect them to and have been hearing about, we’ll be a scary good team. Is it November yet??

Interesting starting lineup this could work.

Kinda quiet since the Carton visit, no?  I have observations to share.

 

1.)  Everyone is losing their minds about the Cousins signing to the Warriors, as if he will absolutely have an impact.  Let's remember, he is recovering from the same injury as our own De'Ron Davis.  Should we also have more faith that he will be contributing soon?  De'Ron is a similar build, but younger.  Cousins has access to better care, but De'Ron certainly has our team working hard on his rehab.  Boogie himself believes he'll be back and contributing.  Here's an article that discusses that likelihood.  https://www.sbnation.com/nba/2018/1/27/16940178/demarcus-cousins-achilles-injury-golden-state-warriors-this-is-the-worst

 

2.)  DJ Carton.  I've read that he and his family are going to "enjoy the holiday" before they give interviews.  Given the lack of information trickling out since the visits of last week, it seems a deliberate effort to circle the wagons by the Carton family.  DJ may have a strong feeling right now, and his parents have simply suggested he sleep on it a few nights.  Remember there has been a feeling that this one could wrap up soon.  I'm not making predictions, but it is certainly within the realm of possibilities that the visit went great, he enjoyed his time on campus, and he's chosen to be a Hoosier.  I tend to read into these things too much, but he posted 4 pictures of himself in the IU garb at the Center Court Wall.  It could have been just one.  He looks great, like he's having a good time.  He's the first we've seen in the full warm-ups, too, right?  And did anyone else notice that he mimicked Romeo's commitment picture?  Maaaybe that's no coincidence.  Anyone notice that while Trendon liked DJ's posts at IU and Michigan, TJD only liked his post while at Indiana?  Those two seem to really support each other.  

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

3.)  Archie, man.  In a single year we're the hotness.  Legitimate chances with multiple 5* recruits, and everyone Archie identified early has been a riser in the rankings, not a faller.  Our social media guys are just dominating.  Just compare the pics DJ walked away with after his two visits.  Most of our class keeps their profile pics of them at that Center Court Wall.  

 

 

4.)  Evan Fitzner is way shorter than I expected.

Great post! 

Especially the part about “the now blond Evan Fitzner.

in all seriousness, Jake Forrester is taller than I expected; quite a bit taller than Jerome, Damezi, and Romeo. Considering Jerome had been listed at 6’8” and Jake at 6’9”, either Jake is growing or Jerome is shrinking!

Dude can definitely stroke it from deep. Counted 17 baseline 3s in a row before the vid cut off.
