Chaminade streams their home games, so unless the season completely blows up here, not exactly unlikely, we should be able to see Reed at least a couple of times. Really want to see Brown and Troutman.

I posted this info earlier today in the High School thread so some of you have already seen it.

On Saturday the 5th, Brownsburg HS will host Sneakers for Santa a 7-game event.  Unfortunately, attendance is limited to family members only.  But there is some good news.  All 7-games can be viewed for free on https://www.iscsportsnetwork.com/   as well as on the ISC app on AppleTV, AndroidTV, Roku, FireTV, and any mobile device. The first 2 games will also be broadcast on myIndyTV, while the last 4 games will be broadcast locally on Comcast 81. 

Several kids with IU offers or IU interest will be in action.

Halftime of the Warren Central (Tae Davis) vs. Crispus Attucks (Jalen Hooks) game with WC leading 29 - 25.  Game is just a little chippy with 5 technicals already called.

Interesting developments at Ypsi Prep involving Emoni Bates apparently having a hissing fit and Jaden Akins being kicked off the team as a result.

Wow. Goode will be a great player before he graduates. Likely not an instant impact guy, but he’ll be a good one.

Was there ever an explanation why he didn't much more than a sniff by IU?

Comments from Brian Snow on some IU players of interest from yesterday's Sneakers for Santa event.

Unsigned senior Ian Scott (Plainfield) could be looking at division I opportunities following a 43 point and 16 rebound performance against North Central. Scott, who is a 6-foot-7 forward, showed the ability to score around the rim or from the mid-range, and has a chance to be a sleeper going forward this season.

North Central guard Leland Walker had flash plays that showed what he can be in the class of 2022. Walker finished with 23 points and showed his athleticism and potential shot making. Though he is more of an undersized scorer, Walker can definitely play and is someone who is always looking to make things happen.

There was an intriguing matchup between Louisville commitment Tae Davis and 2023 four-star Jalen Hooks during the day, but it didn’t materialize. If a very up and down game, Davis and Hooks both struggled some and didn’t shoot it well. Each has tremendous length and good athleticism with solid skill, but they are both looking to put it together throughout the season.

[Class of '66 Old Fart 84,785]

Probably safe to say he won't be announcing for IU since he doesn't have an offer at this time.   Per 247, his current offers are DePaul and Xavier.

Blessed to say I’ll make my college decision on my birthday April 12th 2021. Grateful for this opportunity and looking forward to the next chapter after my high school career!!!
