@UspshoosierI know you followed Stetson some…..why didn’t this guy shoot more?  30 mpg, shooting 47% from three but only averaged under 9 points per game.  Shot rate was very Kopp like.

Because that team had too many gunners on their team.     He would clearly be the best guard and be on fire one game and then the next game Blackmon or Brown would be gunning them up and he would only have a couple of shots

Brandon Newman in the portal. 

 

2 years ago he was a diamond in the rough and Painter was a sorcerer for finding him. But nobody ever talks about it when Painter has a recruit that just doesn't pan out.

I don't know about diamond in the rough. He and Armaan Franklin were the two SGs of that class. Everyone here was saying how much better Franklin was and would be for IU... 4 years later... Well.. yup. Right situation and Newman can average 15+ ppg without any doubt.

Travis Branham is a good predictor, but that doesn't mean Battle to Ohio State is a certainty.  Portal predictions are harder to make than high school recruit predictions because things move so fast.

Yup. Seemed like yesterday we were the favorite.

Wasn’t he 100% IU (on3) for like the last 3-4 days or longer?

The times I watched Newman in high school . I was impressed . Wanted him more than Franklin . Had a hell of a game against warren central in the hall fame classic .

I saw him play three or four times in high school.  The jump he made from his sophomore to junior year was huge.  He really worked to get his jump shot where it was.

I sad what I said because that's how I feel about his posting and no 2 -3 paragraph posts will change my mind. I won't even read them.

That's pretty much the realistic side in a nut shell. Form an opinion with little or no info, then ignore anything that doesn't fit the opinion.

Todays summary:

 

Knecht zoom meeting. LOVE HIM. Likely my favorite target so far.

 

Ware. Maybe a visit upcoming. I like a lot about him. Would be worth the gamble to me.

 

Battle: maybe leaning tOSU? A little bummed. I like him better than

Ledlum personally but I could warm up to Ledlum and hope he’s a better shooter.

 

Dickinson: talking to UK.

 

Oscar: possibly to portal and now UK fans saying he got more of 3-4 mill in Nil.
