IUc2016

NCAA MBB Transfer Portal

Ok, more reasonable. Let me keep working on you haha

It does talk. Our advantages are the following. Our staff (players love Woody, NBA etc), NIL, playing time. BUT… that is it. The lore of old IU doesn’t work. The lack of facilities, Big 10, play style etc are all challenges. There are many schools (more than many want to admit) that have all that. Like Tenn., Alabama, Ark., So IU has to beat out UNC, Kansas, etc. and then all those guys too. It is a tall task.

So, considering we have 2 very solid pickups when many have 1 to none. The staff is killing it honestly. But they are also shooting for the fences and only going after the guys everyone wants. There is time to settle later. 1200 guys with more coming in daily and plenty of very talented guys left. 

I can't see any sort of advantage Indiana would have over Ark/Tenn in recruiting. Bama, maybe.

At this time and hoping or anticipating for what they want before the portal deadline....

Also, I wouldn't want IU to pick up someone that they really didn't have a big interest in from the beginning. I just feel that's settling and I don't think Woody wants any part of that.

I don't think we see anyone who is going to help us who is in the portal right now but what do I know? We might be whispering in some kid's ear about how much we want him at IU and he's not telling anyone about it.

Two players. Both played the 2/3 on a Power 5 team last year. Both young and similar size. Similar defensive ability. Who do y'all like?

Player A:

GP    MIN    FG%    3P%    FT%    REB    AST    BLK    STL    PF    TO        PTS
32    33.3    42.6    37.8    80.0    4.0      2.9      0.1      1.0     1.5    2.0       11.6

 

Player B:

GP    MIN    FG%    3P%    FT%    REB    AST    BLK    STL    PF    TO    PTS

Definitely A

Adam Howard now following Texas 'Draft declarant but retaining college eligibility' SF Dillon Mitchell. Currently projected as an NBA second rounder if he stays in.

JHS and Malik's close buddy. Texas only has one scholly kid returning at this point.

Like Devo Davis, this bears watching to see if they enter the portal while getting NBA feedback.

I just find it little strange that things are so quiet in regards to the coaching staff's interests, etc. I'm sure the name of the game is to be stealthy about it. JMO

I glad this site is not devolving to what is being said on Twitter. CJ Fredrick is the portal and the twits on Twitter are groveling over the staff going after him, prioritize him. Omg no, I'm work with a ton of pUKe fans and they couldn't stand it when he played. 6ppg, 31.8% from 3 last year. Didn't play defense and stood in the corner waiting for a pass. Please no!

That may be the case but I was told directly that money isn’t the issue and we aren’t losing out on these portal recruits because of money. 

Money has many reaches though. More money = better facilities, as well. Not just "here's 200K, come play for us"

I think there is some hope that a couple of guards will enter the portal but not sure what the plan is if they don't. It's a weird strategy that's for sure.

So safe to assume that the biggest and best weekend to have recruits on campus we will have zero recruits on campus?

I don't think we even have coaches on campus besides the one in a wheelchair. Since there is an AAU tournament all coaches are on the road. Raining all day here and 50, plus cloudy and 50 again tomorrow. Not a great weekend

More twits than pUKe, Kansas, and UNC? Fourth most social media followers among CBB programs. That should help us land top tier transfers.

I have seen a bunch of twits on this site and others the last two days
