He is a 6'7" player who shot 21% from 3 last year and 44% from the field.  He turned the ball over almost 2 times a game.  Yes he scored 10 points and pulled down almost 7 boards but he played on a team that won 9 games.  His Dad is a big mouth which can be detrimental to programs.  His time is ticking away to show he is NBA ready and he knows that.

Hunter has already been a role player. Hunter was worth 6 points and 3 rebounds with better 3 point percentage in 6 less minutes a game. Galloway is just getting started and had an injury hamper his freshman year and when you look at his stats, they are not much different from Brooks in his freshman year.

I just am not seeing Brooks as being all that big of an add.  We need guys who can space the floor and he is not that guy.  This is not a huge upgrade so why push a guy out for someone whose career has been underwhelming to date?

“His Dad is a big mouth which can be detrimental to programs.  His time is ticking away to show he is NBA ready and he knows that.”

I see this repeatedly asserted with NO basis.

He is an excellent student and would be going into his third year of college. What the hell is this narrative based on, other than people who are pissed he didn’t go to IU who are projecting?

Didn't see this until today, but looks like I struck a nerve with Jeff Goodman.

This so much 

Don’t get the trashing of Brooks he had a PER of over 19. Was he ready for the NBA not at all but kid was a talented player.  His shooting means he probably wouldn’t fit Woodsons system but kid would be a stud in a lot of systems.

When was the last time this dude even pretended to be a quality journalist

Just ignore Jeff Goodman and he’ll go away. He wants to trigger IU fans and so many of you guys are taking the bait.

He’s not pretending to be an analyst for The Economist. He’s a sports opinion guy who is having fun with an engaged fan base.

Brumdog and Coach Fife have it right—fire back with good humor and enjoy!

Well it  would be an either or situation as for Brooks if he enters the portal. Either a current Hoosier "chooses" to continue his playing career elsewhere or Brooks wont be a Hoosier.

It would work itself out...without everyone pilling on either potential new recruits (he didn’t want us enough before, so F’em!!) or taking apart existing players (can’t shoot, marginal B1G level talent), etc. Let’s not knit pick analysis and get super negative on either side. The college ball player market is as fluid as it gets...and that’s likely staying. Don’t fight the flow...buy a raft, enjoy the river ride...and let’s Win Baby!!

And trust Woodson who seems to be universally loved by players he has coached.

Fully agree. Just a Dad that wants the best for his son. He thought UK was that option. Can’t blame him really. Maybe a bit of a helicopter, but heck, most are.

I think a lot of it stems from his time at North Side but I don’t think anyone knows the full story.

La Lu loved him. Kentucky seems to like him. I like him.

Not sure we have space anymore. It is what it is. I wish the kid the best.

Mod: let’s get back on topic
Other mod: off topic!

Haha good ****!!

On topic: transfers, lots and lots of transfers. We should legitimately not have any fall off year to year because we can address any roster issues with viable transfers after each season.

If Brooks wants to learn from CMW and also to be part of his IU revival project, I'd welcome him wholeheartedly. Why not? He's a definite upgrade to our roster. I saw his sophomore highlights, and honestly we don't have enough players of his caliber in terms of raw talent and athleticism. Some of us are talking about his 3 point shooting, but our returning players didn't shoot well beyond the arc anyway. If they shot well, we would've still had Archie.

It's would not be the welcoming of Brooks, it would be the Creaning of a guy you just asked weeks ago to stay and buy into the Hoosier Nation family that is at issue.

Brooks enter the portal yet since I last posted?   If you want to talk Brooks start a new thread.   Moving forward it Brooks is mentioned while not in the portal I’m going to start hiding post with his name in them. Thanks in advance

Why do you insist on feeding the trolls?

[Hoosier987]

Goodman is Goodman. He’s mainly joking around...don’t take it personally.

By feeding the trolls, do you mean actually stating what happened?

Nelly Cummings recommitted to Colgate and Goodman tweeted about how good Colgate was going to be.  This was in the exact same time period in which Tamar Bates and Miller Kopp committed to IU and he tweeted nothing about either one.

Oh, I don't take it personally.  It's the exact same mantra he always replies with on these kind of things -- when called out,  he resorts to some hyperboilc statement that no one said.
