Was not there, did not see any telecast via BTNPlus, but a friend went and was sitting within eyeshot of the recruits (according to him) and thinks they looked disappointed and bored. Hope this is just his (incorrect) opinion..

The scrimmage and event is probably the most boring part of their entire official visit.

They would rather be hanging with all the current players at someone's apartment, or at Archie's house, at a party, etc, but instead all the players are out on the court.  Watching a meaningless scrimmage for a few hours could get pretty boring for them.

....or now be hanging out in the Oladipo Zeller Legacy Lounge. That lounge/locker room is going to be a HUGE selling point to recruits. Amazing addition!

I can't offer a lineup, but I can offer this:

1. Our opponents will have to guard the 3 point line with sincerity this year. The offense has a more balanced feel to it...I will admit that the guys took a few quick shots, but overall...the weight won't fall onto 1 shooter's ability.

2. Moore didn't look lost or overwhelmed. I don't know how he falls into the rotation, but he showed actual development.

3. Jerome Hunter was very, very physical with Langford on both ends. He is an "up in your face" defender and a true "bully" on offense. Needs to be a little more patient on his shot selection, but Hunter is definitely a Miller type player.

4. Langford appeared to be pressing a bit in the early part of the scrimmage, but he never let his offense determine his defense. Matter of fact, it appeared that his defense allowed his offense to settle in. The kid is extremely smooth..that floater in the lane was impressive and difficult to stop. 

5. Anderson has a big upside. He took decent shots and attacked the glass and stayed in control. Probably needs to increase his vision on offense, but I feel confident he can do that.

6. Race Thompson and Jake Forrester are going to completely change the tone of our interior play. They were physical and played through contact.

7. Durham shot the ball with noticeable confidence. I'm going to remain guarded with his shot until he does it consistently in the flow of the offense, but he took shots when he should and they were going in.

8. I have to say that it appeared that most of the upperclassmen were going, at best, 1/2 speed. The effort on defense was consistently inspired, but the upperclassmen were deferring to the new guys (Fitzner included). Just my opinion.

9. Smith, Morgan, Green, McRoberts all did good things, but again...they appeared to defer to the new guys.

Anyways, that's my way too early assessment. Things will change for sure, but this team has a noticeable difference in approach from last year's Hysteria. I think it's an improvement...time will tell.

Fitzner looked like he will really be able to contribute with his shooting

The team looked much better than last year so I am cautiously optimistic we will be a tourney team.

We need to be much better and will be. If we dont make the ncaa tourney as a minimum with this team i will be getting concerned

I just saw a video of the coaches, players, etc, being introduced -- and it wasn't Chuck Crabb doing the talking. Did he retire from his PA duties? I can't imagine our fellas taking the floor without Chuck saying, "Ladies and gentlemen, your Indiana Hoooooooooooooooosiers!"

No he was there! Not sure who the PA was.

Kinda my thoughts as well

It was my thoughts as well. Didn't like where they had the recruits sitting. Also didn't bring them out across the court like they did last year.

Nevermind it makes sense why they were sitting there now. USPS explained it and some others so it makes sense.

Did that court imaging also have a 3D effect?

I don’t remember him talking about Juwan last year. What did he say? I remember him talking a lot about Davis but cannot remember anything about Juwan

Just that he was working hard and that he was gonna be a really good player in the system. Archie doesn’t seem to blow too much smoke.

Some parts of it appeared to be. The player images weren't but there were some small instances of the corner of the court falling away.

Not much has been said since July. They said then everything would be light until Fall. So there should be news soon.

No i dont believe so. Archie says he is on schedule but they are taking it slow. Said they will see where he is at when season starts but he definitely sounds like he will be close to ready at start of season. Last i heard hope nothing has changed

Man could you imagine this team with a somewhat healthy De'Ron. He would be awesome off the bench.
