Uspshoosier Posted June 27, 2019 Posted June 27, 2019 Rabjohns hasn’t acknowledged this offer yet. Brakefield offer came after Van Zyl said he had an offer and Jeff tweeted about Brakefield getting an offer but nothing on Van Zyl.

mdn82 Posted June 27, 2019 Posted June 27, 2019 Remember David Williams? Jacksonville high player in 2009 that was given an offer by an IU assistant without talking to Crean. Williams accepted......the assistant who made the offer was fired and IU backed off. I believe Roshown McLeod was the assistant. https://www.insidethehall.com/2009/04/22/hoosiers-land-first-2010-commitment-jacksonvilles-david-williams/ Wasn’t that the same guy that was talking up Duke to a kid Duke was also recruiting. Crean sure did know how to hire lolYes that was McLeod on a Kyrie Irving in home. Fired him for that. McCleod told Kyrie he would be better off going to Duke. The Williams thing was weird. He committed just never signed his loi. Rick Bozich went on radio in Louisville during the fall signing period when that went on and said he was part of a package deal that fell through. Never naming the player. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app sabaka 1 Quote
mdn82 Posted June 27, 2019 Posted June 27, 2019 That kid was Kyrie Irving and was concidered an IU lean before the McCleod BS.Yep. He was close to committing. A stupid in home at the end and he just dropped us. That was the weirdest thing I can recall in all of my years following IU recruiting.Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app BGVille Hoosierfan 1 Quote
ViaSwiss Posted June 27, 2019 Posted June 27, 2019 The same in-home that Crean clogged the toilet causing water damage. And IU couldnt cover the cost because it would have been a violation. moyemayhem, SlamaJamaSisley, ALASKA HOOSIER and 3 others 4 2 Quote

And IU couldnt cover the cost because it would have been a violation. Clogging the toilet on an in-home visit? I'm sorry, but we've been misusing the term Creaning. Henceforth, when I'm looking for a plunger it's because I Creaned the toilet. ALASKA HOOSIER, Alford Bailey, jepwatso and 5 others 7 1 Quote
Popular Post Class of '66 Old Fart Posted June 27, 2019 Popular Post Posted June 27, 2019 Tweet of the day from Mike Schumann @TheDailyHoosier - Austin Van Zyl just tweeted out that he was actually offered by IU, but it was for the assistant coach opening. Hopefully that clears everything up. BGVille Hoosierfan, Cookie, mark1981 and 12 others 10 5 Quote
RaceToTheTop Posted June 28, 2019 Posted June 28, 2019 I'm assuming since IU has been silent on this and there hasn't been anyone confirming it except Van Zyl, that he doesn't have an offer. Quote

And I do find it strange that Van Zyl hasn't tweeted anything in the past two days. 8bucks 1 Quote

One of the athletic dept’s mouthpieces would’ve confirmed by now though. Something weird happened in the last few days, whether from IU’s end or VanZyl’s. mdn82, RaceToTheTop and 8bucks 3 Quote

Very strange that it wasn't long ago he was retweeting articles about him considering what schools he would take visits to....then he tweets that he received an offer from Indiana, hasn't said he's gotten an offer from anybody else, and still hasn't 'set up a visit'.

Well, we're 1 for 1 on fictional players committing to us but 0 for 1 with them actually playing for us....unless you count what was actually the cartoon that was Tim Priller. Quote
RaceToTheTop Posted July 2, 2019 Posted July 2, 2019 Van Zyl tweeted he received an offer on the 26th and retweeted people saying he said he did.....and has not tweeted since. I also 100% doubt someone receiving a high major offer in June receives no other offers in the next week. i think we can put this to bed.

Stuhoo Posted July 2, 2019 Author Posted July 2, 2019 I have to know! Is he going to issue an imaginary acceptance or rejection of the imaginary offer?!? "It is with great sadness that I am announcing that I will not be accepting the offer to play at Indiana University that I never had. Much love to Hoosier Nation; I'll always be an imaginary Hoosier in my heart! @pg_austinvanzyl" lol thebigweave, ALASKA HOOSIER and mamasa 3 Quote
