Brooks.....maybe not a stretch 4, but a versatile SF/PF....

 

Ducks and leaves.

 

 

Admit to preferring Swider above all.

I'm still not a fan due to how the fanbase was characterized during his recruitment, but of course you can't turn him down if you're IU and he wants to come. It'd be silly to tell him thanks but no thanks. With some of the other options off the board I'm cool with bringing him on if it's a real possibility.

What I'm seeing in this KB debate, people are choosing the numbers they want to use to justify their takes. I have no idea if he will improve his game or not. I have no idea if he is even coming. He isn't even in the portal yet.

He's gotta learn to defend without fouling, but his per 40 stats last year of 17.5 pts and 11.5 rebounds are pretty darn good.

Per 40 Minutes

I'm well aware of his numbers. My point was those who don't want him were using field goal percentages and other stats to justify their position. Those who want him were using other stats to justify their position.
Personally, until he actually enters the portal, the point is moot. He is still a Wildcat. If he enters the portal, I'd take him if he wants to come. Cal plays favorites with his teams. I've read on boards and tweets many Kensucky fans saying this very thing. It's why Dontae Allen didn't get much playing time early on even though he was their best shooter. Kb wasn't one in my opinion, which is why some of his numbers don't look great. We shall see

Can you imagine Brooks' shooting numbers if he had come to IU and played for Miller?

His per 40 numbers look decent so I've had my mind changed a bit. Before I absolutely didn't want him. I still don't want him but wouldn't be upset if he ended up at IU.

15 shots to score 17 points isn't exactly efficient, however. Those numbers are really hurt by his terrible 3point shooting. Regardless of what happens with Brooks, I really hope Woodson and company do a much better job on working with the players to improve their shooting than Miller did. I'm sure they will.

It's moot right now, though. He's not even in the portal.

I think we need to keep an eye on the portal tonight and tomorrow. 

you said assistant coaches wouldn't be announced until wednesday. So if we are going by your timing, I need to be paying attention now.

Got it.

If a certain UK guy is entering it, it will be tonight or tomorrow most likely 

I am watching Jim Coyle and Indiana Sports Beat and they are talking to the guy who broke the story about Kieon.  He said that he expects this to happen tonight or tomorrow.  Also said he was like 80 percent he would go to IU.  He also said off air which I can hear on YouTube said UK is getting the PG from Creighton.
