What’s everyone’s dream class? I think mine includes Seth Trimble, Justin Taylor, and Kyle Filipowski for sure. How many will we take in this class?

1. Gunn

2. Taylor

3. Banks 

4. Filipowski

5. Hood-Schifino (If there is an available scholarship)

Other targets I like but I'm not sure how much mutual interest or real possibility is there include: Washington, Trimble, Rice, Phiilips, and Ward (yes IU made his top 8 so we'll see what happens there). 

 

I think there will be plenty of available scholarships especially if the team does well. Rob, TJD, Race, XJ, Stewart, and Kopp could all be gone and that's if their aren't any guys that leave early (this is unlikely but if someone blows up this year you never know) or transfer.

Pangos All-American Camp started yesterday (runs June 6-8) and I'll attempt to provide info on IU players of interest in this thread.  Yesterday, they had skills camps in the a.m. and then each player is assigned to either an ACC or a Pac 12 team and a single game was played last night.  Today, skills camps in the a.m. and 2 games in the p.m. and a similar format tomorrow.  Full camp schedule and team rosters available at:  http://www.pangosaacamp.com/

To say that Vincent Iwuchukwu got the job done is an understatement.

 

[Class of '66 Old Fart]

This post is a snapshot of how IU targets are faring against all of the other (approximately 100) competitors after 3 games at the Pangos camp.   Lots of blanks because there's a different number of kids being ranked in the different categories.  For example, the stat site is posting the top 30 scorers but the FG% category is only listing the top 15; rebounding the top 21, etc.  So although Iwuchukwu is the leading scorer, he's not in the top 15 in FG%.

After 3 Games
Scoring	Avg  -  Rank	FG%
Vincent Iwuchukwu	22.0  -  1	N.A.
Zion Cruz	15.0  -  7	N.A.
Alex Karaban	14.3  -  10	N.A.
Avery Brown	12.3  -  22	N.A.
Justice Williams	11.7  -  28	72%  -  5
Jalen Hooks	N.A.	69%  -  11
Rebounding	Avg  -  Rank
Vincent Iwuchukwu	10.0  -  2
Alex Karaban	5.7  -  8

Zion Cruz	3.7  -  T4

Eric Bossi on what he's seen at the Pangos camp.

Frankly, seven-footer Vince Iwuchukwu hadn’t played all that well in some recent viewings. Currently ranked No. 41 overall by 247Sports, he has the size, body and athleticism to be ranked as a five-star prospect. On Sunday in a matchup with another seven-footer who could be a five-star, Dereck Lively II, Iwuchukwu didn’t just look like a five-star, he played like one. He was running the floor with purpose, posting strong, hit some jumper and was very active on the glass while racking up 26 points and 10 rebounds. If this is the Iwuchukwu that we can expect to see moving forward then he’s got a real chance to move up the list of pivot players. Arizona StaAte, Florida State, Kansas, Indiana, Purdue and Texas are among those giving chase while Baylor appears to be in a pretty good spot.

From the class of 2023, 6-foot-9 Xavier Booker continues to impress. He’ll definitely be a factor in the next edition of the rankings for his class and will likely enter as a four-star prospect. He’s skinny but can really move, has potential as a shooter and is starting to blossom athletically. Kansas State, LSU, Purdue and TCU have offered while Indiana is starting to show more interest.

A guy who had NBA folks asking lots of questions was Zion Cruz. The No. 18 ranked product of The Patrick School (NJ) and the PSA Cardinals grassroots organization played up to his ranking and then some. Cruz was shifty off the dribble, finished with creativity and knocked down some tough, contested jumpers. Cruz has been performing very well of late and is coming off of a recent visit to Auburn with a trip to Oregon coming up after he finishes up at Pangos.

Jalen Hooks should expect his phone to be continuously buzzing that day. He is not the most athletic prospect in the national 2023 class, but he has the ideal length and shooting touch that will intrigue college coaches once they are back in the gym. Butler, DePaul, Illinois, IUPUI, LSU, and Xavier have already extended offers and more should soon come his way.

The Pangos All-American Camp ended yesterday.  Players played a final game on their assigned teams; however, I've yet to see any box score information for that game so I'm giving you what I have for 3 games.  Following their final scheduled game, a Top 30 were selected and split into 2 teams for a final game.  Included in this group of 30 were Alex Karaban and Zion Cruz.  A second group captioned Top 60 was also selected and split into 2 teams for a final game but clearly minutes were going to be minimal for each player.  This group included Justice Williams, Xavier Booker, Jalen Hooks and Vincent Iwuchukwu.  From the rosters I saw, neither Avery Brown nor Julian Phillips were selected for either group.

[Class of '66 Old Fart]

All the stats for the Pangos camp have now been posted except for Jalen Hooks' last scheduled game of the camp.  Although he was selected for the Top 60 game, his name does not appear in the box score and it may be because he had to get back to the midwest as I think he had a Marquette visit lined up.  Neither Avery Brown nor Julian Phillips were selected for either the Top 30 or Top 60 games and Phillips' name does not appear in the box score for his last scheduled game.
