Outside of the Dream 3, I think it comes down to Ament and Tiller. With next year's portal big class projected to be the weakest since the portal opened, Tiller can play the post behind or with Reneau and Moreno,  so I like that option better, I think Ament is the hotter name in our recruiting process right now though. 

How on Earth can anyone substantiate that? The season hasn't even started and the portal isn't even open.

We're out of the Covid year zone. The majority of the marquee Centers are in their final year and the ones who are not are at high NIL schools. The name I hear to look out for might be Felix Okpara not sticking. Someone of his caliber might be available. This 24' cycle was robust at that position. There will be some second chance freshmen too but nothing like this year's group.

Again, how does one substantiate that? The portal isn’t even open lol. Anything beyond that is pure speculation.

This MSU writer has come to the conclusion that MSU leads for Sisley because they are getting his last visit.

I'm going to wait another month before I get into the weeds on this. I'm still giving Woody the benefit of the doubt on the instate recruiting.

Let's revisit this in 6 months and we can discuss the potential portal options that could be available. I'm sure someone will have started a list in Feb-Mar by position.

Update on Top-50 senior Trent Sisley, per the Sisley’s: Has locked in his Indiana official visit for September 20th, Mike Woodson went to Montverde last week and saw him with his staff. Notre Dame’s staff will see him at school on Friday. Primed for a huge year at Montverde.

Michigan State will send an assistant in tomorrow afternoon for Top-50 senior Trent Sisley, a source told @Stockrisers. Will begin his official visit to Indiana on Friday. Recruitment heating up…

I think he's the ultimate connector on a really good team. Someone is going to get a heckuva ball player. 

If Haralson picks IU he's going to Purdue. If Haralson doesn't it's IU.

For a “one and done” out of state dude JHS seems very connected/appreciative to IU. Good to see.

That is really refreshing to see that coming to IU was more than just a small step on his way to the NBA and he never intended to look back.

CB for Sisley to IU from Branham - 7 confidence level.

Hoosier

That is awesome.

A Hoosier kid from a family of Hoosiers going for next level training at Montverde and then coming home.

Perfect.

Yup, and Painter REALLY sold out here. Just more evidence that even with Purdue where it is right now the vast majority of top Indiana kids will always want to go to IU.

We’ll see lots of posts. Waiting to see this optimism from one or two particular posters.

Some pms from a few years ago from folks with family ties.

I hope this turns out to be a Hoosier commitment. I remember that the board was really high on him a couple of years ago and then the interest seemed to wane a little as we chased higher rated recruits. He looks to me a lot like the players that CBK started his career with. A Steve Green type of guy who just makes the team better for multiple years.
