A Xavier Johnson and Caleb Love back court would be one hell of a roller coaster ride.

oh boy it sure would be.

Crap.....what is it now?  I knew it had shut down for a while but had reopened.

Do they still have the wall of shrimp?

I haven't been there since they reopened but my brother said the menu is pretty much the same.

No thank you, that would be Bracey Wright on steroids

I'll say this about Caleb Love. When he focuses on defense, he's a beast. One of the best I've seen this year but the key is to make him do that more consistency.

I mean... I guess I'd take Love... I feel like Woody could get more out of him than Hubert.

Hey - let's get and start Xavier Johnson, Caleb Love, Joe Girard, Puff Johnson, and Kaden Shedrick.

Chris007 mentioned it a few pages back (before he entered portal) that if he does that IU would be involved. So not sure if there was talk between the two sides already  that Chris is hearing about.

For those who follow Sam Story on Twitter, he has been tip-toeing around this with his typical tea leaf communication for a bit as well...

Caleb Love sure would be a nice addition to the roster. Maybe Woody can showcase JHS (assuming he gets drafted 1st round) as an example of how our program could help Love.

The first post in this thread has a link to the 247 portal tracking page. Here's a link:

https://247sports.com/Season/2023-Basketball/TransferPortalTop/

There's also a link there to a verbal commits page which seems to keep up with who is in the portal in real time or at least close to that. What's interesting about that one is you see players enter the portal and very quickly commit to a new school. Totally legit with no tampering, I'm sure.

Thank you for the link go iu.

We. Need. Depth. 

Sparks has good footwork and he moves way better than Durr.

Someone said Miami’s Omier is a comp — don’t think that’s bad. They’re different but IU could use him similarly.

According to Chris if Sparks pops they'll be out on Ike Graham.

Thanks. I wasn’t clear but that was my assumption — you don’t come out and say “we’re only taking one of these guys” but that’s the reality. Especially so if Doughty’s a take, too, redshirt or no.

Yep.  Wild wild west.  Need to have some dates and sanity.  

How does opening it in the middle of the NCAA tourney make ANY sense for anyone? Wait 2 wks until the season is over. Sheesh the NCAA is dumb.

I really cannot believe people still think he is connected.
