Certainly not in first.

Indiana needs to nail Transfer Portal recruiting based on who we’ve lost. A lot on the line.  Our recruiting has been so off for over a year.  Something seems off but here’s to NIL hope.

Thought Woody was supposed to be a closer lol. Starting to think he might not be too good at this whole recruiting thing

Something like inconsistency at PG, lack of hitting outside shots, players not able to create plays, inconsistent defense and effort, low free throw percentages, shallow bench,  not having the refuse to lose mentality, having a tradition of losing not winning, lack of leadership...want me to go on?

Hey it's a competitive racket.  Woody has gotten the team to improve each year.  Need the PGs to be top notch all year.

What would you truly rate his recruiting so far lol? Completely screwed up the 2023 class, seems as though we aren’t in good position with any 2024, and looks like we’re getting our @$$ kicked up and down the block in portal recruiting too

Just Love. Love's dad talks about how his son wants to be coached and get to the next level but IMO Love only cares about going somewhere he's guaranteed to get up 20-25 shots a game.

Marketing an intangible is a challenge for the best out there.  One doesn't close successfully a lot of the time.  It is still early.

I don't agree with the part about not being in a good position with 24s. Liam, Asa, Flory, Plus many many others. Sisley and Harrelson in 25. I'll give you 23 though

As much as we’d want impact players, gotta be a good fit. Guys that accomplish their individual goals thru team success.

Going 5 for 25 ain't gonna get him to the next level.  lol

Another perspective on this (not mine) that will matter:

TJD and Bacot are pretty close. I'm confident that TJD has informed Woody about Bacot's take on Love. We're pursuing, so it must be reasonably positive.

With Cupps and Newton I wouldn’t classify 23 as a bust. Sure, missed on a number of targets, but could have been worse.

That’s fair but I don’t feel particularly good about landing any one of those even if we aren’t in a bad spot for any of them

We seem to be leaders for “Liam” but that isn’t always everything.

Flory/Kory??? Tough competition. Seems unlikely until it isn’t.

In the mix for Newell, Mustaf, (Burgess and Williams-who will require time).

Dylan Harper. Nope.

Idk. This staff has been on the struggle bus for a long time. We’ll see.

25s seem good but they always feel good 2 years out. 24 is breaking down. 23 broke down.

But as I’ve been saying for over a year, the transfer portal can cure all if you can identify and land. Thank goodness.

My thing with Love, it’s whatever, high risk/high reward. But we need a guard scorer big time. Let’s find one.

If this is accurate, we may be better off NOT getting him.
