He sat down with Pope today and told him he was going to Hogville with Cal.

I’m sure he did but he was already in the portal and then said he wanted to hear Pope’s pitch.

Connor McCaffrey to Butlef makes sense now….since his girlfriend will be playing with the Fever.

Patrick went to Butler, not Connor.

Tyrese Hunter and Dillion Mitchell from Texas have hit the portal?

Barely played as a freshman and then redshirted last year. Had brief cursory IU interest ages ago. From the Chicago area, I believe. Maybe Northwestern?

This is a fun one. Had an IU offer under Archie. It appears IU is the only offer he’s never gonna accept.

In theory that's your stretch 4 off the bench

Interesting tweet from Kopp on the portal... 

A few things from the picture that stand out:

• He had 2 bigs as a question mark for IU, same with team chemistry and the B10
• He had "good PG" as a positive for IU (lol) 
• Also listed the "NBA offense" and "values shooting" as positives for IU. 
• In that first picture, Utah actually ranks more highly on the criteria he was considering but the appeal of the "stage" at IU was too much for him to pass up, keeping in mind that he ultimately was responsible for his own individual success

$$ is a primary motivator in this market, as it should be, I suppose... But I look forward to a more sustainable environment some day.

He also had a reply under that where he said he hated the B1G and wanted to get out lol.

Remember that this was before Woodson had coached a college game. So he was sold the same bill of goods as the fans were, that it would be a 4 out, 1 in offense.

Also, Johnson's stats coming to IU were pretty good.

Yup. Just an interesting snapshot of what the conventional wisdom was at the time

Really thought he was going to be a VERY good player. Seems to have found some footing at a lower school.

Meechie Johnson transferring to Ohio St. is interesting.  Does that stir up portal talk from any starting point guards?

I think some thought Bruce Thornton was a possible portal prospect that IU had ties to, but he confirmed he is staying
