I was thinking the same thing, believe he’s the only “insider” I’ve heard say that IU is out on kaufman.

Yeah, given the how highly Miller has clearly prioritized Kaufman, I find it almost impossible to believe that he would have accepted this commitment knowing that it would end things with Kaufman.

[WayneFleekHoosier 48,092]

I think we still get Kaufman,
But what do I know.

If we don’t get Kaufman because of this I’m not too thrilled.

Otherwise it seems like a good but maybe not excellent option at the 5 for Brunks spot when he moves on.

Good get I think. Kind of kid you expect to be around for 4 years as a role player. The kind of guy Archie needs. Never understood how Beilein or Izzo could have so many random white big dudes that could play solid minutes and we couldn’t find any. This is our chance.

Great pickup with Duncomb! Excited for our future

[IUc2016 7,121]

So trey kaufman didn't want to play with furst. He didn't want to play with Lander. And now he doesn't want to play with duncomb. 

WHO the hell does he want to play with?! DWS

Glad we got this kid. I hope TJD sticks around for his junior year though or we might be quite weak upfront for a year. I’m hoping that some of the role players step up their shooting with a talented point and a big. That could be all the difference in a good to great season.

Get Kaufman too!

I'm thoroughly intrigued (and excited) about this kid.

Congratulations Logan and welcome to Indiana!

If TJD sticks around for his junior year would be hard to not see us as a FF team of Lander is even close to the hype.

IMO, top 100 big men have better ceilings than just being a role player for four years.

From what I've seen of Duncomb, I'm impressed with his post moves for someone his age.  Will need to put some more muscle on but seems to have the body type to do so.

In terms of Kaufman, I'm not one for turning down quality players because you think there might be someone who is better that could take the scholarship.  The eggs in a basket approach bit us with Keion Brooks.

When have we ever had that luck? Our star big men have been McDonald’s All-Americans. TJD, Bryant, Vonleh, Zeller, White and Jeffries. Except for Killingsworth but he was a transfer. We just don’t have a history with these kinds of guys.

History has little to zero to do with LD.

Maybe. But we just don’t have that kind of luck.

Maybe I'm reading this wrong, but Marco Killingsworth was a high school first team Parade All American.

Welcome to IU Logan Duncomb

[Honkyman 1,670]

Logan Dunomb is ranked about where Joey Brunk was ranked. So that is roughly the kind of player we are getting.

Another CB for Kaufman.

yeah, i'm not deterred.  There was a notion that Duncomb and Kaufman were very likely a few months ago.  The wheels seem to be rolling this way to me.  Not really sure who Baumgart is talking to, but it doesn't line up with others. 

Did I mention, I love Kaufman's game? 

 

Now Aminu Mohammed?  I'm not too confident in that one, but i do have hopes and they aren't dashed yet.
