It's okay y'all. Plenty of other fish in the sea and remember... We have a dude on the roster that can contribute at the 3 next year. KALEB BANKS.

Other that... Here is a short of of 3s we can go after, whether we will or not... Don't know, don't care. Have some faith y'all.

RaeQuan Battle(Montana State)- 6-5, 190. Averaged 17.7ppg, 2.9 rpg, 35.3% 3pt on 4.3 attempts, 83.3% FT on 4.1 attempts. Explosive athlete.

Zach Hicks(Temple)- 6-7, 185. Averaged 9.6ppg, 5.1rpg, 35.6% 3pt on 7.0 attempts. Really nice looking shot and consistent.

Myron Gardner(Little Rock)- 6-6, 222. Averaged 13.2ppg, 9.1rpg, 3.6apg, 35.6% 3pt on 3.5 attempts, 75.5% FT on 3.5 attempts.

Philmon Gebrewhit(DePaul)- 6-7, 185. Averaged 5.8 points, 2.1rpg, 37.2% 3pt on 3.0 attempts (27% year before on 2.8 attempts). Reminds me a little of CJ Gunn. Very energetic jumpshot.

Sean Conway(VMI)- 6-5, 215. Averaged 12.1ppg, 4.9rpg, 37.8% 3pt on 5.7 attempts. He'd be your Andrew Funk or even what we had in Zeisloft maybe.

That's just some optimistic Loaded Chicken Sandwich with a slice of optimism on it.

(I'll share links to YouTube videos for each)

 

Add Tre White of USC to that list.  Hit the portal today.  Freshman last year, 9.0 ppg, 5.1 reb.  Only shot 27% from three but no reason to believe that won't improve.  Top 50 recruit.

Are you going to keep beating this dead horse on this or what? It was a thing and still is. 
 

college coaches in every sport would laugh at your statement. Is is 100%… no. But he was heavy IU and that was one of many indicators. They lost him at the end and I am not sure they even know why. That would concern me more.

You want to argue this more or just drop it? I can call you out for every post you make to if you want?

But they were in a much better place than what Archie left for Woody. We only had like TJD, Race, and a few others.
Am I in an alternate message board universe where people don't get you or have they never got you and I just assumed everyone else could gauge sarcasm?

Where is the cliff? We lost Ludlum. That is one. We never really pursued Love after the initial call. Not everyone we contacted was offered. I'm not saying it's all roses, but man some of you guys need to relax. Yes we need some good transfers or late deciding HS players but I'm not going to worry about it, 2 and a half weeks into portaling. If it continues well into May, I'll be Wiley E Coyote right along with you.

The Love statement isn’t true. We tried, he didn’t reciprocate. Same for Knecht right now. I get it, you can’t get everyone you want.

Ware makes perfect sense. So does Sparks. Both still have big question marks though.

It’s not who we’ve missed that bothers me, it’s the lack of cache we have in recruiting and how tough it is for our staff to identify targets with mutual interest and finish.

Bright side- we only really need to fill 2 more spots. Somewhere, somehow we can still get good players. And I personally didn’t even care for Ledlum but Eric from HHs who is a legitimate inside source, really painted a picture tonight.

Let me first say that overall I think our fan base is a big asset to the program. Saying that I also think we can be a huge detriment to it as well. We keep trying to come up with all of these excuses to why we haven't been successful the last 25 years. I think one reason is the fans and how we try to get in the way when it comes to recruiting. Someone brought up Hoosier Hysterics but I think their actions get in the way of recruiting because some players might not like getting hit up on social media by creepy older guys.

In the last 25 years we have had 6 coaches, 4 AD's and 4 presidents but the one constant is the fan base. I think the actions of some of our fan base has hurt the program when it comes to recruiting. Just this year we had an idiot fan write TJD a letter criticizing him. You see one of the all time players in zIU history getting ripped it might make you second guess about coming to IU

Still valid wether you want it to be or not. Just because you think it isn’t and think this proves you right doesn’t. 

glad you got a win you can gloat over. 

can we move on now? FYI…. I would 100% still give the exact same insight. 

Since when has it been valid. This was its grand chance to prove itself and it failed miserably. You talked down to everybody that didn’t believe your little theory. Now that you missed badly you aren’t even owning it. Just.”let’s move past this”. 
 

Not sure why you are convinced this is so great a theory. Maybe you own stock on Meta idk

On July 2nd of last year Kansas St. had two players on their roster and ended up in the elite 8

Yeah, you're right. I'm sure that is the norm and not an extreme outlier. We're going to the final four!!!
