Here’s a fresh decommitted player. Don’t know much about him. 

247 lists him as the 94th best recruit in 2023.  Shooting guard, okay perimeter game, good mid range pull up shooter.  Says he will need to work on building his body up to maximize his game at a P5 level.  Recommitted from Georgia Tech after Pastner was fired.  Power 5 teams that recruited him were Georgia Tech, Syracuse, Tennessee and South Carolina.

FWIW, I don't have any indication in the records I keep that we ever took a look at Blue Cain and since Khani Rooths, Jaimie Kaiser and Alex Karaban also played at IMG, I'm assuming there was nothing that stood out to our staff to pique any interest in Cain.

The NCAA men’s basketball Transfer Portal has set a new record for the most Division 1 and Division 2 entries combined in the first 48 hours with 805+ players entering through the first 2 days.

Not sure how Wisky or Marquette let him out of Wisconsin the first time around but I would guess both will be hard after him this time around.    Kid can play

How many spots to we need to replace?  And I have no idea how we recruit from the portal.  We just call them on the phone and say we want to meet them?  Are we doing that now?

1. We are guaranteed to lose three players (TJD, Race, Kopp) and I'd guess we'll lose a total of four or five. We have two incoming freshmen. So from the portal? I'd guess approximately two.
2. Hulls would be the logical role to identify possible good fits for IU, though an assistant with a connection to a player would raise that name (like Kenya did with Xavier Johnson).
3. There is also a possibility that a portal player would reach out to IU to express interest, likely through an AAU coach or family member.
4. Woody should ultimately be approving (beyond interest gauging) our outreach to a player.
5. We reach out to portal players by calling - either to the player directly or to his designated rep (AAU coach, family, etc.) Hulls would be the logical first caller, but for special players it may be an assistant or even Woody.
6. Are we doing that now? I would think...yes, very much so. Especially by Hulls and especially to gauge interest.

But he's a true point guard and is 6'1". That's our position of lowest need with X, Cupps, and Trey.

I like trey but when teams press I was not as comfortable with him handling the ball.  With X and Cupps we are pretty good but if either go down for a few games I like depth at ball handling positions.
