Was going to look for c-&-s breakdowns for him, Ledlum, Love. Awesome, this sorta fits my eye with Battle.

80% of Ledlum’s 3s were assisted so it seems unlikely he’s drastically better off the catch.

The 53% number for Battle came from 247, but I don't know where they accessed that so I don't know others.

Assuming we won’t hear real news til the morning meh

Not sure how much I'm able to say about Peegs (I only did it for just this month) but I don't think we will. It's silent over there outside random people.

Thanks. Checked Hoop Math but they don’t have it (maybe with a paid acct?), I’m sure Synergy does but I don’t have access.

What's Gates going to say..."You are the missing piece to us beating Princeton". Nothing against him, I just think IU would be a really good fit for him. I'd like to see IU go after a true 3. I think Battle/Ledlum are 4's. 

Mizzou has some NIL money.  NIL money keeps you in the battle.

Anyway, I would not be surprised to see a lot of players/teams drag out their recruitments.  For the top players, there isn't a rush.

Hoping it’s not Mizzou for Love…but I guess we will find out soon enough.

My one question with IU’s portal activity thus far is at the 3. I think it makes sense to take Shedrick and Sparks, even assuming Malik plays mostly at the 5. They clearly need guard depth. At least one of Ledlum/Battle fits at the 4, too, but IMO they’re not really 3s. Knecht or, should he transfer, Johnell make sense there, but so far there’s not a lot of movement on the former and who knows if the latter goes anywhere.

The logical conclusion here is they feel alright with Trey, Banks, and Gunn there, I hope, not that the Ledlum/Battle minutes are at the 3.

Who is TBD?  I think another incoming freshman for that spot.  

It’s TJD’s long lost twin brother

Cool, I'll have to check out Hoop Math.  My go to is Cbbanalytics, but you can only access one team for free (you can switch it ten times, after ten times your account locks.  I just keep it on IU and have had the free account for two years).

they'd be top 4 in the B1G easily. 

Which would set us up nicely with the next couple of recruiting classes.

Interestingly, Torvik has our current roster at #65. Adding Love, Shedrick, Battle bumps us to #30. And getting all 3 probably a long shot still.

I believe were at #35 with our roster pre-transfers.

Torvik is also rating players based on their previous numbers/programs.  It’s adjusted for level of competition but if you are a good player on a bad team and your numbers suffer because of it, it isn’t reflected.  However you also need to keep in mind that other players are going to be added to other rosters as well.

also, did you add Johnson to the roster?

I didn’t add Johnson. Adding him takes it to #29.

I’m not making any sweeping statements here, just a fun tool. Kinda thought it would be higher though.

Torvik loves efficient rated players.  I love the tool but it’s nothing more than a ballpark.  The tool says that if shedrick was added, Sparks would get 24 mpg, Kedricj 21, and Reneau 15

Today is my 37th birthday. When I told my wife all I wanted was love she thought I was being sweet, until I mentioned I meant something else.

Her response was just an eye roll, so I may luck out. She’s accepted the fact that Indiana Basketball comes before our marriage lol

I am impressed.  It doesn't work that way here at Rancho Rico.  IU basketball, or any sport for that matter, is frowned upon in this household.
