He had a chance to play for Archie Miller. I can’t blame any recruit for not jumping on that chance. Now he has the chance to play for Mike Woodson. Kids commit to the coach more than anything. 

Yup. Quotes from the Noah Clowney article on peegs verify this.

You also don't run off a kid who's dad is one of the top high school coaches in the state when it's your first year on the job. I get that Woody isn't just recruiting Indiana but you don't want to burn those bridges already. He's very Sheehey like and I'll take that off the bench any day. 

He isn't the athlete that Sheehey was.  Also, Woody didn't recruit him.  Kids have the option to transfer when a coach leaves for this very reason.  This is his team now.  His a%* is on the line and he has the right to build the team he wants.   I can tell you first hand what it's like when a new college coach comes in that didn't recruit you.  You can either sit at the end of the bench and get the silent treatment or go to where you are wanted.    

It may make Dad mad, but Woody has plenty of Indiana support and winning will get him all the support he needs.

Wonder who will leave?

Woody walking out the door because he can't stand the roster micromanaging from btb.

I like our roster as it is right now.  I don't want to see anyone move to make room, plus the dad is a potential issues from what I remember in the past.  We do not need that on this team.

 

Yeah, his dad comes off like a lightweight Mark Carlino. If Brooks ends up at IU, I don't want to see any complaints from those supporting the move when his dad starts popping off about Brooks not being the focal point of the team.

Nah. Mike Woodson loves his Hoosier Nation, and his love is unconditional.

Totally agree. My wife had this happen to her after her sophomore year. The new coach said you will sit at the end of the bench and life will be terrible or you can transfer. She thought it was a bluff so she stayed. She went from the 6th man to no playing time and being told to quit the other sport she was playing her junior year. Her senior year her athletic scholarship was taken away and was no longer part of the basketball team. She paid her own way her last semester and left the state of Kentucky for good. 

Coaches want their own people on staff and on the team.

To my knowledge, Keion Brooks Sr. has NEVER complained about his son not being the focal point of a team. Neither has Keion.

And honestly, it’s not like it’d be the end of the world for the player who gets pushed out. I don’t mean to make light of it because it does stink for them, but Trey is a legitimate D1 player, unlike a guy like Grant Gelon who got pushed out. Trey will still land at a good school, get a free education, and play college basketball.

I found out last night that athletes are not allowed to have academic scholarships thanks to @Brass Cannon. Leal's parents work at IU so he would qualify for half off tution. 

Way to go brass cannon, ruined academic scholarships for our athletes lol

Is IU hiring Tony Bergeron? So that's a no. It will be interesting to see what happens with Mitchell but that's a strange situation.

I would honestly rather keep Galloway over getting any player. If the number one player in the country Chet Holmgren or whoever decided that he wanted to come I would still rather keep Galloway. He wanted to here and has seemingly never wavered from that. If that’s the difference between a trip to the E8 or S16 and a first round exit so be it.

This is an insane take. Unfathomable. 

[Hurryin' Hoosiers]

So we could bring crean in as an advisor to clear up roster space.

I'm not sure where I stand on this but basically what I'm hearing is fans are happy with us not really using scholarships 12 and 13 for a couple of years. I put Galloway at 12, Leal at 13. Neither should be really playing on a team that is trying to compete to win a Big Ten title. But since they love IU and want to be here, we're ok with them riding the bench, getting better, and hoping they can contribute something in their senior year. If that is the stance I guess I'm OK with it. If you get anything before then it's a bonus. 

Well no team play 13 players and usually have a rotation of 9 players so why not have a couple of guys at the end of the bench who wants to be at IU.

That is such a crock of sh!t, I hate hearing things like that.

Someone is going to leave before the start of next season on their own because they are going to realize they are not going to play much. 

Wish more people would realize this
