JSHoosier Posted March 22, 2022 Posted March 22, 2022 We need talent, and couldn't hurt having a 6'8 5* in the fold if we get room. lillurk, NVFalcons1990 and Chris007 3 Quote
WayneFleekHoosier Posted March 22, 2022 Posted March 22, 2022 Would love this addition for a lot of reasons. Seems to fit Race/Banks spot more than TJD however, but this would be a great one. Would counter our Trey Kaufman miss from 2 years ago. I’m not going to lie, college Free Agency goes against what I want from college sports, but it certainly makes fun off seasons for fans. lillurk, Stuhoo, Hoosierfanyuh and 4 others 7 Quote

Keep in mind that 43% was an extemely small sample on 3s and actually so was the FT % since he only attempted 20 in the 14 games I have with complete game stats. As someone else mentioned Montverde and several other of the basketball factories could more than hold their own against some college teams with the talent they have on their rosters. @Demo correct me if I'm way off base but IMO Reneau was at best Montverde's 3rd scoring option and maybe it's 4th. Scoring simply wasn't in his job description with the other talent on the court. lillurk and Demo 2 Quote

Reneau is a high-motor rebounder who sprints the floor and finds a way to make plays. The lefthander does most of his scoring right now around the basket, including taking his man off the dribble, but he can make jump shots. He is regarded as a high basketball IQ, team-oriented player. Reneau has good length, has a strong physique, and he is an above average athlete.

They also run some 4 out motion with Reneau in the dunker spot, but, again, he’s just a finisher. lillurk 1 Quote

Memphis is a popular destination and almost beat Gonzaga last weekend. Miami is his hometown and is in the sweet 16 with a very respected coach. Arkansas seems to be on the rise and is also in the sweet 16. I’d love for it to happen but I give it less than 5% chance. Quote
OldBuddy67 Posted March 23, 2022 Posted March 23, 2022 Looks explosive! Maybe it's the left hand but reminds me of TJD. Seeing him actually take a 3 and hit is nice to see! Would be a good get. Hoosierfanyuh 1 Quote

Class of '66 Old Fart Posted March 24, 2022 Posted March 24, 2022 Although we did make his final 7 the first time, he may well have waved us off when we contacted him again after his decommit and let us know wants to stay in the southeast. Be great to have him come to IU, but this is not a recruit we've been hanging on the edge of our seats waiting for his decision as we did with TJD, Cody or Romeo. Stuhoo 1 Quote
Popular Post Hoosierfan1901 Posted March 26, 2022 Popular Post Posted March 26, 2022 Sounds like we made up lots of ground with him. Rivals recently reported that Miami and IU are the probable frontrunners BtownStrength, cybergates, Chris007 and 10 others 13 Quote
