IU maintaining contact but doesn't sound like we're really making him a high priority.

 

The 6-foot-8 Casey hasn’t connected with new head Indiana coach Mike Woodson yet, but he is hearing from IU on a fairly regular basis.  “Coach Hunter, he hits me up every now and then.  They are definitely staying in contact with me,” Casey told The Daily Hoosier of his recent dialogue with IU.

Illinois Hoops Prospects - Casey gave Meanstreets a much-needed scoring punch in the first half.  He had a couple of athletic drives to the rim and knocked down a corner three.  There were multiple occasions where his length affected shots in the paint and he was able to high point rebounds.  In the second half he wasn’t able to get anything easy.  It’s hard to quantify the different skills that he brings to the table, but Casey showed glimpses of his ability to do everything.  Every Power-5 school knows about him at this point.
