I think so but until he narrows his list or makes an announcement it's hard to say for sure.

Read one article dated about 2 days ago that said Woodson and Rosemond were keeping tabs on him.  Saw another statement elsewhere that indicated he was seeking a black coach.   Decommited Texas when Shaka Smart accepted the Marquette job.  No scholarships were available up there.  Lots of previous Texas players are entering the portal. Recruits are requesting to get out of LOIs. That is my understanding.  Lots unattributed here.  Stuff happening though...seems.  At IMG in Bradenton last season he hit 44% of his 3's.  I'd buy that for a dollar.

Who is this. 

[Josh]

That's awesome!  He comes in a much needed position too.  Great pickup.

(He mentioned Bobby Knight, I was led to believe recruits have no idea who he is?)

[Hoosierfan222]

Wow that was unexpectedly quick, Woodson killing it!

[ALASKA HOOSIER]

It has to be a lie. Coach Woody can't recruit college kids.... (lol)

Kenya Hunter deserves an apology from some people out there.

Being number 2 is just being the first to lose.  This one for you Hoosier Nation let’s rock.

“I’m excited to play for such a historic program when you are talking about people like coach Bobby Knight and as much as they have won. I’m just trying to go there and add to what they have there now because they have some really good players. The goal is to bring Indiana basketball back to where it was and I’m going to go in with that same mentality to carry it on.”
