He most certainly did NOT call us “Indy.”

He called it “INDYYYY” which is way better and completely acceptable.

At least he didn't say INDINA.

That’s a Tom Allen thing.

If we land him, it won't be an early commitment.

Brother plays for UGA and he grew up in Athens? Damn that would be tough to beat. I'm glad we got him on campus early though.

Follow-up to his weekend visit with some very nice quotes from Asa's father.

Being 72...5'8"...and bald...I'm jealous of this young man's entire package...but mostly that hair.  Oh yeah.   :D

I really want this kid. I have no idea about our chances but he just looks right in IU gear.

Montverde participating in the Iolani Classic in Hawaii and won its opening game 92-49 over St. Louis, a local Hawaiian high school.  I had Newell with 14p; 2r; 1a; 1s; 0b; 0t.  He  picked up 3 fouls in the 2nd Q and stayed in the game only to  pick up #4 before the half and then sat out a good portion of the 3rd Q.
