Lester just needs a little HoosierGuy love and certainty!

From reading Michigan boards. Michigan cancelled his upcoming visit

Lester Quinones is on campus y'all. He's a top 100 guard whose current best skill is outside shooting, which we very much need. 

Pls. discuss.

All Aboard...

Hahahahaha

Aye Aye Aye Aye Aye Aye...

So Michigan canceled his official visit, that leaves IU, Memphis, Maryland and LSU. 

He's from Long Island, he goes to school in Florida, and those four colleges are in different areas, none of them close to home. That suggests that proximity to home isn't a factor here. 

2 Big 10 schools, an SEC school, and an AAC school. That suggests conference affiliation isn't as important as it was for some of the recruits we've been after. Playing in the Big 10 doesn't sound like it's an issue for him.

He canceled his original visit but rescheduled and made it to campus. Often times a canceled visit never gets rescheduled. That was the first hurdle. Will he come? Good question. But all hope is not lost here, imo.

Anyone know how long he’ll be in Bloomington for? Hopefully the weather can clear up and make things a bit nicer. Im not sure who the presumed leader is of his recruitment or why many seem to be counting us out/treating this as a hopeless recruitment. He’d see a good amount of playing time as a freshman and possibly even start his sophomore year depending on his trajectory. We desperately need outside shooting and it looks like he could provide just that. We will see on May 10th!

Not sure how long he'll be in Bloomington but the coaching staff will have to hit the road with AAU games starting around 6:00 in Atlanta, Dallas and Kansas City tomorrow night.

Rumor on the Michigan board is that his visit there has been cancelled. 

Now IU is his last scheduled visit. Not sure if he will visit elsewhere before deciding.

Someone else said Michigan cancelled. Or did he?

A school with a coach caught on tape talking about paying recruits that needs players. An Under Armor school that has paid in the past and recruiting a kid from IMG (UA). A school with a flashy new coach that seems to be willing to roll in the mud.

If we land Quinones I’m not sure how to feel. I’ll be happy we landed a top 100 guard this late but will always wonder what it took. FWIW, I highly doubt we land him but wouldn’t be shocked he ends up playing in Btown with that UA school.

I believe they cancelled his visit. I follow Michigan football recruiting and hear basketball recruiting on the same podcasts. He was like 4th on their wish list. Not sure why they cancelled but speculating they got good need on a higher priority.

Truth. Not sure I even care if he is committed to playing and winning at Indiana.

It’s where I’m at. If we get him great. If not, whatever.

That's the way I am with all recruits.

I see the value in adding talent. I just don’t get wound up if they go elsewhere. Whoever the coaches get, just win.
