(2022) PF Malik Reneau to INDIANA

[HoosierFan1994 4,572]

I'm not sure why, but even if IU loses Trayce I feel the program will be fine. I obviously want him back. But I get the feeling if he does declare they are going to go after Malik Reneau hard. If Race leaves put Geronimo in his spot. Program still needs to get a consistent shooter.

I like how he plays. Smart player. I didn’t like how the announcers kept referring to him as 6’7”. He’s definitely a post player. Hopefully he gains another couple inches.

If Reneau is 6’7”, he’s going to have a tough time as a 5 in the B1G. Curious if he can handle Dickinson, Edey, Cockburn. But Trayce couldn’t either.

Rivals has him at 6’9

Rivals has him at 6’9

I’ve seen 6’8 and 6’9 but the announcers today talked about 6’7 a couple of times.

Reneau is only about 200 pounds I believe.  Everyone has him as a 4, not s 5.

Yeah, that’s how I see it. He’s not really a replacement for TJD.

Yeah, that’s why when the announcers kept talking about him being 6’7” and a post player, and being a little undersized because I’ve always seen him listed bigger. Not sure who is right.

Never seen Hood-Schifino or Reneau up close, but I have been up close with Tarris Reed from Link Academy. He’s a legit 6’10” and certainly looked to have 2-3 inches on Reneau. Guessing 6’7” and some change is about right.

miami fans seems to be torn on what they think. 
 

i think if one of tjd/race leaves he will be a hoosier. Just a blind guess though

I wish I had your optimism. Medium to long term I'm holding out hope, but right now, next year without TJD looks very bleak to me. Who is gonna score? I know there is a long way to go this off-season so not giving up, but IU struggled mightily with an excellent scorer and defender in the post. Experience has made me very skeptical that losing him will be made up (and improved hopefully) by a combination of Freshmen, off-season improvements, or mid-level transfers.

Might want to thank JHS for that, but I still wouldn’t count Miami out since he is from there

It says Miami in the article title but not in the teams to watch, definitely strange. Almost seems like the author slipped up and said Florida State instead of Miami.

Yeah I noticed that. Who knows

I know this school is different but what I’m happy about with JHS and Maybe Malik is that they are coming from a winning program. Even at the high school level I like it. Hulls, Zeller, and Yogi all won IHSAA championships. I think Oladipo played at a successful high school too.

Some kids know how to play, some know how to win. I'll take the winning kids as you said any day.

I didn’t see this link posted anywhere but if it was, I am sorry for posting it again!

Reneau is likely to visit IU and JHS doesn’t try to influence him!
