Zero reason imo to take windham until the other guys decide.

Im the resident Archie supporter but it is pretty obvious Windham is a backup plan

[HoosierFan1994 4,682]

One common theme I noticed with the teams playing deep in the tournament was that they only play 8 guys. I hope Archie can find his 8 man rotation soon.

There should be a toggle somewhere to ignore all mods :)  

Just kidding.

Nothing I saw in his video made me think he could come and play right away next year. The whole overall game. Archie needs to win next year period. If he could play 15 mns a game I would say go get him. Its my opinion. I know you dont agree but that is my take and I am not going to lie

Do you really think there are 15 minutes a game out there for someone not named Watford or Brunk? Also he has a major offer in Creighton I believe.

This. There isn’t that time available. It’s about building continuity for  the future.

When does level of competition apply for Windham. 25 in the semi state, 22 in the state and 20s vs LC all in the tourney. I know nothing about IMG grad teams schedule. Because some website ranked LQ 80th or whatever and JW 400th I'm suppose to just believe them? Nahh.. I'll take the Indy (mic) kid.

His Creighton offers not listed on 247. If so that does intrigue me. 

The fact we are looking at Windham isn’t what concerns me, the fact he feels like option E is what concerns me.

What I hope for is that we fill spots with our top choices. For example, if we swing and miss on several kids and end up with our kids that were our 4th or 5th choice I will be bummed.

So that means if we target Windham early and get him great. If we try for several other kids first and end up with Windham then I would be concerned.

I agree, but then I also think we're already there. Over the summer we had offers out to Tre Mann (26), DJ Carton (28), Jahmius Ramsey (30), Jalen Lecque (33), Anthony Harris (66), James Bouknight (70), Tyrell Terry (76). Some of those were more serious than others, but the only guy we could even get in for a visit was DJ Carton. The Indiana kids Brandon Newman (128) Armaan Franklin (156) were among the last guards we offered, and we took the commitment of the least heralded of them all. I don't say that to mean recruiting rankings are definitive, only that we appear to have already swung and missed on our top options, when you look at who we recruited and when. It's awesome that there are still two Top 100 guards available, and with Indiana interest, but it does feel like we're already at or past our 4th or 5th choice.

Maybe I confused a visit with an offer then. I prefer Windham just because he has played with Franklin and TJD. Plus I don't think LQ is realistic for IU

Chris, are the odds of getting either LQ or Beverly back on campus for an official pretty slim at this point? Seems like we are running out of weekends.

I would say yes but I guess you have to take LQ on his word and he says he will reschedule. I just don't see it. I would personally save a scholarship or two so we can get more 2020 guys.

I’m ok with Windham tbh if he is viewed as an Al replacement. Won’t need him till he’s a junior. 

Franklin is our Green replacement. Won’t need him till sophomore year. 

I do like that he’s played with Franklin and TJD. Should be good chemistry. And as I have said we need a 3 and D guy to come off the bench. I see no reason Windham can’t be that.

Same here on saving a scholarship. 

I really feel like we should take Leal. Keep the in state momentum. Unless Archie just doesn’t think he can play at this level. He’s definitely the favorite for mr basketball

I agree on taking Leal. You take him and he will be a 4 year guy. If there is someone elite in 2021 you want, Leal isn’t going to scare them off.

I want Leal and Galloway. They play AAU together, both are winners on their high school teams and maybe they can help land Lander

And even if Leal breaks out the 2-4 are flexible on Archie’s system.

Love, Leal, Morton would be a solid class. Might be too guard heavy though. 

[Brass Cannon 24,222]

Assuming we get Brunk and a guard for 2019.  Could also take a Grad transfer shooter  

In 2020 I would take Leal, Morton and a big in a heartbeat. 

Then we will have at least 3 scholarships for that loaded 2021 class
