This is a really good piece of video. Dainja is a top 50ish kid going to Baylor and he gives Garcia all he wants. Not just a highlight clip, shows some stuff that Garcia will need to work on, particularly lateral movement and core strength. But, man, is he a skilled kid. At 1:15 he takes a rebound and throws a full court outlet dead on the money with his off hand. Don’t see that every day. Shows range, handle, can pass off the dribble. Love him.

Could see him as a 3 TJD at the 4 and Brunk at the 5

I’m just imagining TJD at the 5 and Garcia at the 4, giving up a little defense physically but the offense potential of a BIG center trying to stay in front of TJD surrounded by 4 shooters would be awesome to watch

I wonder if part of the recruiting pitch is to play some 3, or at the very least emphasize with TJD and Brunk already here, he won’t have to come in and be a 5 and have to guard 5s night in and night out like he may he asked to do at Marquette

That's the pitch against Memphis. Memphis is without question losing Wiseman at the end of this year, and have no idea who their center will be thereafter. 

We may lose TJD, but if Dawson arrives we will also with complete certainty have Joey and Race to bang around down low.

Is it wrong that I am disappointed we EVER have to have a strategy to recruit against Memphis?    I don't care who their coach is....Memphis is in a shitty conference (and I know there's decent basketball, but it's also Kelvin Sampson's conference; and the bottom is just awful), has no meaningful history, isn't a college town, is really doing not much more than playing up the NBA angle, and plays in an NBA building.   Completely different program than Indiana and a completely different experience.   Not sure why kids would have the same two schools on their lists.  I have about as much use for Memphis as I do for Kentucky.

Well lots of rumblings about Garcia to IU I even heard one. Person was in the know enough to cal Romeo but not before Chris did. So not sure how reliable. But could be a very important weekend for both programs. 

Sounds like the visit is going well from what I read. He would be a nice piece for years to come. Would make me being okay with losing out on Furst in 2021.

 Alot better than Furst, besides they won't be playing same position.

I've heard we've cooled on Furst, hence the visit from Patterson. I think Kaufman is plan A and Patterson is next up.

For some reason the staff isn't quite sold on Furst, per what I just read this week on TOS.

Would love getting Garcia. Disappointed about Furst. Appears to be an excellent option at the 4. Maybe lacks the athleticism they want????
