Anyone talking about IU reaching out to 7'0 Michael Durr who started at South Florida last year? Committed to Virginia Tech but since reopened his recruitment. IU did a zoom with him with the whole staff. Averaged 8 points and 7 rebounds or something like that. Seems interesting and somewhat odd with our roster but nothing wrong with kicking the tires, unless it hurts your foot. 

Kind of hope it’s just kicking the tires unless the staff see something special I guess. I understand you do what is necessary to add impact talent, but nothing really jumps off the page as super special about Durr from what I’ve seen. 
 

I wonder who is thinking they might transfer but hasn’t announced it. The later it goes, the more awkward it gets because the kid may find it harder to find a good landing spot.

Well, school is out and I believe players were given a couple of weeks to go home to spend some time with family so is the time to be deciding if they want to transfer.

Did he enter the portal? Kind of a weird tweet 

I assume so, but so far everyone is getting their news from a release from the IU program that does not mention Jerome’s next steps.

Well, we can’t say this is surprising. He was the name most identified as the most likely to transfer. Best of luck to the kid. He’s been here a long time and endured a lot. I still think he’s got some good college basketball in him. 
 

It appears the staff wants another 5 to fill in, right? Makes the Brunk transfer interesting, as others have noted. He was a freebie on the roster. 
 

Do your thing, Coach Woodson! I’m ready for a Top 15 team.

I wonder how Brad Stevens feels about IU looking ok while the Celtics are currently in a free-fall. 

IMO he doesn't feel/think about IU at all. He's focused on his team. He won't think about IU until he's fired (whenever that is) and he'll have a few moments of "what could have been" before taking the Pacers or another NBA job.

Very strange announcement. Says he “won’t return” but doesn’t specifically say he’s in the portal. Wonder if Woodson asked him to leave.

Knight never thought twice about asking someone to leave......

From my understanding, it wasn't a good fit on our end. 

Agree.....I think we are going to see a much, much more disciplined and well respected team all around, top to bottom.
