I worry the most about Geronimo because I feel he's got so much untapped talent but being from the east coast, don't know if he's built up enough ties to IU to stick around or not.

I don't know.  All his interviews about coming to Indiana, he was impressed by the school and town, not so many mentions of the coaching.  I think after this year, almost everybody will expect that the next coach will do a better job of developing these guys.  

 

But I totally agree.  He's one of the 4 guys I want to build around (assuming TJD jets).  Franklin, Lander, Race, for those inquiring minds.

I could envision Race leaving.  He's been on campus for 4-years and may get his degree and could move on as a grad transfer.  And with Ostrom likely gone he may not feel a strong enough connection to stick around.  I'd certainly like to be wrong, but it is a thought I've had.

There’s a thread like this over on Peegs. Rabjohns has stated Leal and Galloway are both staying. 


Not trying to create more work for you but maybe have an updated list on your original post that list the players with what they’ve said so far? That way we don’t have to look through so many pages as this builds. Just a thought and GREAT thread by the way!

Lawrence North junior C.J. Gunn committed to Indiana just last month. In light of today's news on Archie Miller getting let go at IU, Gunn is focused on team's state tournament run and will take some time before making any decision on college front.

 

From Gunn's father:  Gunn's father, Christopher Gunn: "Our thoughts are with coach Miller, his staff, and the players. We wish them and the IU program all the best."

2022 CJ Gunn - focus on state tournament and think about college decision later AKA "Wait and see"

Luckily CJ has time on his side to make a decision. Not going to be a huge loss if he de commits.

Leal, my man. That's how you become the fan favorite. Say those things. 

Just like back when Yogi said "I'm a hanging a fn banner on that wall" 

Doesn’t Leal have a parent who works at IU?

I personally want every back and buying in, but those that leave I wish them well.  

Parker Stewart is a wild card here.  We've never seen him play.  But he wouldn't be hurt from not being in a system that other players had already learned.

Yes. If the returning guys just made reasonable off-season improvements and had a better system, IU could be decent. There are mostly legit B1G players on the roster- just need a couple pieces and a better coach, IMO. I really hope Duncomb still comes. I have no expectation TJD remains, but if so IU could be on the rebound much faster than we expect.

Race, Hunter, Franklin, Lander, Geronimo, Leal and Galloway. Get those 7 to stay and bring in a handful of your own guys. That would be ideal. I'm assuming TJD is going "pro". 

I would add Brunk. He's a competent, experienced big that appears to get along well with his teammates. Obviously IU could bring in a more talented big man, but even then, depth never hurt. I don't want Race or Jordan playing the 5!
