I don’t find it at all confusing.

One thing in this world that’s assured? That things will change.

Yep.  Not sure I long for the days when a guy could have his picture in a charity calendar and face the wrath of the NCAA.

I believe IU calls themselves the Indiana Hoosiers.....the same as they did in 1987 when two starters started their careers at junior colleges.  

That was the way junior colleges always worked... two. year colleges, and after 2 years, the player would (try) to. migrate into a 4-year school.

This whole transfer portal and NIL have turned college sports into the wild, Wild West with what amounts to "free agency"". Personally, I am NOT a fan, but it is what it is... and Woody either goes along with it or gets left in the dust.

With that said, IMO, it's ruining college (read "amateur") athletics...

A. J. Storr to Wisky

Storr shunning being a centerpiece for St. John's under Pitino for Greg Gard at Wisconsin?  Interesting.

I think he’s pretty good but this is a strange fit to me. He’s from Rockford, IL, so this is close to home, but if that was the primary factor I’m surprised it wasn’t U of I, Marquette, a Chicago area school….

Don't know the answer to your question.  Since Ware has signed with IU, the first thing that would have to happen is we release him from his Letter of Intent.  We could be pricks and refuse but we know that wouldn't happen.  To me the question  would be if having signed with IU did he lose his immediate eligibility to go play for someone else without a specific NCAA waiver.

I'm so confused about this whole portal process. I thought there were specific times when kids could sign letter of intents. Is that different for kids in the portal. I may be too old to keep up with this stuff.

If I'm a coach, I'm saying bye. As soon as your name hits the portal, your spot is getting filled by someone else.

Sorry, missed the quote tweet. Deloach. Someone said he wouldn’t want to play backup but I was told that is not 100% true. Will see if that adds up but found it even more plausible when he didn’t just outright cancel but moved his visit. 

He better get to practicing his shooting.

It’s not like guys are clamoring to go to central Arkansas.  And no one that would go there are going to score 17 per game like Hunter.

Is there a link for that?

Glad to see someone else say that. Been preaching that here for a bit. Agree 100% 

I have to think that other schools monitor that stuff too. So how do they respond to that? I mean we aren't the only ones who are cutting edge in the social media world. I don't think we have an advantage in that arena over other schools.

I mean, not if he wants to play back up and play post, lock and lob, while Malik and Ware are rotated outside. 

injuries are still a thing too, foul trouble etc. this idea of going small is great and all until you have no bigs at all. I still think we need 4 bigs. Unless Ledlum or someone that can play some 4. 
 

but not my call and I trust the staff. Just relaying that he still wants to be here. 

I’d rather have Cleveland or Ellis

Are you sure Ledlum was in there? I never saw his name pop up on the watching list

No, it’s just on x’s instagram and it goes away when he isn’t on live anymore 

[Hoosierfanyuh 4,136]

Also i know social media, lives ect are very minimal. I more made the comment that they all seem to be pretty buddy buddy ever since he visited.

We’ll see.

Hearing anything about a visit from Knecht?

[Brass Cannon 25,176]

So by in it? You mean they were watching him?  That’s does seem odd I will admit. Reminds me of that recruit that was texting Alford while on an IU visit. Wilkes I think.

According to Mike Schuman at the Daily Hoosier IU has reached out to UConn transfer Nahiem Alleyne.  would be a nice final piece to the puzzle after adding Knecht and Ledlum
