(2024) - PG Boogie Fland to Kentucky

[JSHoosier 19,826]

I don't really think anything changed. He set the announcement date, wasn't taking visits, etc so he knew where he was going.

Sounds like Cupps, Galloway, Gunn, Newton will be our mainstays for ‘24. Maybe it’s not so bad but stacking classes is what big boys do.

Our staff was fully confident. They got the rug pulled out from underneath them on this one. They didn’t see it coming. AHoward was confident until this evening.

Reneau as a JR… Banks as a Junior… They will attract solid Portal guys. They get 1-2 studs in the portal  this off-season… This team could be special still.

Except the 15 times he posted stranger things gifs I guess.  He doesn’t miss on his final guess might be more fair

Cupps et al are good pieces, you need those kind of players that stick around and provide experience.  We need to be stacking 5* talent though to compete with the big boys.

Anyone thinking that group can lead a deep tourney run is kidding themselves imo. Even if Liam is a monster as a freshmen, which is not a sure thing. Transfer portal is the only way to salvage this.

To be fair i think he missed on Givens. Maybe one other 1, but he’s as solid as it gets. Indiana had this one until they didn’t. I really liked Boogie. Lol. Now, not so much.

Only signing one player we this fall is pretty disappointing this was supposed to be a monster class.

Tough one. Only complaint is that I do wish we would give ourselves some more options but I also don’t think we could’ve done any more than we did with this one. 
 

Also side note the posters here have way more of a life than peegs lol that thread was ridiculous

Has Cuban unfollowed? If not, why assume anything has changed?

Those were just countdown gifs that other people turned into him guessing   He has missed 2 GIF predictions on his actual site that keeps track    Givens and Flory

We had all convinced ourselves the new rules would make us juggernauts.  Yet we go into year 3 with a roster with flaws and barring a lot of luck in the transfer portal we will have gaping holes going into year 4

2pm tomorrow... we really have no idea what's going on in this recruitment, as is always the case. 

Didn't Woodson say he didn't know about Mgbako before until his public announcement? 

Recruiting is basically a game of Mad Libs, where 99% of the page is blank and you can fill it in with any random scenario to justify a view/hope you have. EX: Gossip spreads about Cal making him an offer he couldn't refuse in the last hour and "insiders" run with it... Boogie/his camp want there to be more anticipation around his excitement after a lot of confidence he'd go to IU, and this is a smokescreen to try and draw bigger headlines tomorrow to boost his profile.... Or UK has really been the choice all along and IU was competitive but didn't get the job done. 

....2pm tomorrow.....

Well both those guys the CB was wrong too.  So fingers crossed I suppose 

[HinnyHoosier 4,783]

So if we don't have Fland the program is a wash. Am I interpreting this board correctly?

Yep correct. The reality is we can get maybe on five star a year but you gotta cast a wider net. Listed with all these top 50 and only got one.

Yeah. On one hand I like how aggressive the staff has been chasing elite talent, on the other hand, if you miss you’re screwed. Tough break, but they have to find a balance imo. There won’t be many situations where we can strike out on a Ledlum and replace him with a Mgbako.

No but it’s once again.  Well if we just hit 3 hole in ones in a row we will be right back in this.  Which is where the program has been for years

Trilly is 52/54 when posting GIF predictions.  It's possible he's wrong, but he is very connected and I wouldn't bet against it.
