Come on guys, 3 Star 197 nationally ranked Braden Smith is clearly in over JHS or Reneau…

And 3 star 244 nationally ranked Derek Simpson is a no brainer. 

At least Simpson has played well so far. 

Smith has been overmatched against both cupcakes Puredoo has played.

I think Kaleb Banks is averaging more points than Smith, only getting like 5 minutes a game.

Sure, but does Banks have twice as many turnovers as assists?

Cause Smith has him there.

Can you imagine what it's going to look like when X is harassing him for 25-30 minutes? That is a supreme physical mismatch...love to see it.

Well, Bardo can but he’s about the only one.

I’ll advise several of us to save this screenshot and send it back to him at the end of the year.

I double dog dare the Assembly Hall scoreboard operators to put this up on the jumbotron the next time Bardo is broadcasting a game from Bloomington.

If you really want it to happen you may have to triple dog dare them.

I thought earlier, that the ultimate smack talk would be for the entire IU team to cruise up to the fieldhouse tonight, in the candy stripes, and set court side for the MSU/ pUKe game. ... WE ... ARE... COMING... FOR .... YOU. FU!

But I grew up with CRMK, he knew how to create the narrative, so.

It might work.
I did some dumb stuff in college due to triple dog dares.

[RaceToTheTop]

Braden Smith:  2 games, 30% from the field, 6 ppg, 3.5 rpb, 2.5 apg, 7 turnovers to 5 assists.  But those were against the stellar programs of Appalachian State and Milwaukee.

Reneau:  12 ppg, 4.5 rpg, 71.4% from the field.

JHS:  7.5 ppg, 3.0 rpg, 6.0 apg, 12 to 5 assist to turnover ratio.

It’s obvious that Bardo doesn’t like IU or any player on the IU team

It's not the kid's fault that some talking head puts him somewhere he doesn't belong. I like Smith and hope he does well. He's from my alma matur. However, both of our guys are clearly better and that will be obvious as we go along.

Besides our two guys, Taris Reed also is ranked above Clark - who is the highest rated player from the B1G incoming frosh in the Rivals rankings; JHS and Reneau are also the top ranked B1G players in the 247 rankings.

Braden Smith? Not ranked in Rivals, 196th in 247.

Smith looked really good against Marquette last night.

Guess I went to the wrong forum. Thought the title said IU news and notes.

Maybe somebody should re-title this PU's forum...
