(2024) - PG Boogie Fland to Kentucky

[Demo 22,628]

https://basketballrecruiting.rivals.com/news/rivals-rankings-week-new-2024-position-rankings-breakdown
Most recent Rivals’ update. With Cadeau reclassifying Fland would probably be the consensus #1 PG in ‘24. Rivals thinks so.

Thus far Self has not been nearly the threat he is purported to be, at least to IU during the Woodson era. 

Agreed that Woody and staff did a great job with Mack. Self really had to play catch up with Liam, and so far he can't over come our long term dedication to him. 

Self did take Flory though and our staff really wanted him.

We can bring a bag of money now too.  NIL from that perspective was about the best thing for IU.  It made it legal (so we would be comfortable doing it) to do the stuff those other blue bloods have been doing for 3 decades.

We look to be in a spot where we are starting to get the recruits.  If the wins follow, fans of other teams are going to start looking at who is recruiting a dude and think "sh*t" when they see that IU symbol on there.

Wasn't UCLA the pioneer on cheating in the early 60's? 

I agree NIL has leveled the field a lot. No doubt cheaters will still cheat, but they have a steeper hill to climb now. 

Zion Williamson probably netted more at Duke than his first year in the NBA since it was tax-free bags of cash from the Duke.

I still say NIL is not what is helping but the collectives. So are most teams still cheating because programs aren't using NIL the way it is supposed to be ran. Are the Utah layers who are getting those trucks actually doing anything through NIL to earn that truck.

Who is "Isaac McNeeley"?

Is he confusing Liam with this guy? What a moron.

Good question. Maybe the secret twin of Liam who IU is also recruiting?

Trilly tweeting the character “Eleven” from Stranger Things, which was filmed in Indiana, so I suspect the 11th is a day to watch.

I was bored and did a little look around on the other teams forums, nothing on Alabama regarding him at all (the ones I have access too). UK’s Travis Branham thinks UK is still in the lead, but it seems like there is some doubt amongst the fans on Rupp Rafters.

I believe this was referring that Passmore just made his commitment date on the 11th

Passmore to Indiana on the 11th?   ;)

You could very well be right, and hoping it’s Passmore to Kansas

Stranger Things is set in Indiana but I don't think it's actually filmed in Indiana... Pedantic distinction, I know.

Misinterpreting a tweet about a show from pre-pandemic days shows pop culture comprehension?

Man you're old.

Yeah, the Utah guys took a page out of Sam Gilbert’s playbook. And the world sings John Wooden’s praises as the be-all end-all Wizard of Westwood. With those inducements, Mike Davis could go undefeated.

Never seen the show, but from what I gathered, it’s filmed in Georgia (could be about Asa going to Georgia) but it’s based on a town in Indiana (ITS THE HOOSIERS). As others said (or reached), the flickering colors are crimson and cream sooooo

The collectives are part of NIL opportunities for athletes. The collectives pay the players for their name, image, likeness, etc. by having them do charity work, for example. 

All those Utes need to have done is something small like pose for a picture that goes on the dealers social, web, etc. Then if the dealership wants to give them a car for that appearance, it can.

Yeah but that is all considered NIL now and completely legal.  In the past Kansas would bring an Adidas rep along for those conversations, "If you come here we can get you $250K from Adidas."  Now with NIL and the collectives they can still do that, but so can we.  I think we maybe dipped our toe into that pool in the past.  When the rules changed we did a cannonball into the pool.

Hey recruits, we have one of the biggest and most passionate basketball fan bases in college basketball and here is what that means to your NIL.  Our 13th guy on the bench made enough to pay off his sister's 4 year college debt in one year.  It is likely those 2 walk ons we added this year (who could have gotten a scholarship somewhere else) probably still aren't paying for their school.  We always had the crazy fans, the good atmosphere, and the basketball history.  What we didn't have for most of the past 30 years was the bag of cash.  Now we do.  And that puts us right back into the desirable location to play ball as long as we make good coaching decisions.
