Indiana Players Now In The Portal

As I recall the situation they were both up for the same scholly and whoever said yes first got it.  That was Anderson and that's why Archie stopped recruiting Henry.

Henry was also a late riser.  His stock skyrocketed very late in the game snd wasn’t recruited by IU as long.

Jadlow was actually fairly athletic.

Goofy but a pretty good athlete.

Jadlow started and played his ever loving @$$ off. There has been no indication that will ever be Duncomb for a P5 team.

We're discussing punching people based on how they look. That checks out.

Best of luck to Duncomb at his next stop.

All this talk about Jadlow and punchable faces reminded me of this moment...

Just had a buddy buy some IU gear from Tamar Bates. I’m guessing he’s hitting the portal. I think Geronimo is going to.

Not shocking for either. When Derek Elston moved to Carmel two years ago I snagged some IU gear from him

If so, it really kinda sucks. I know many differing opinions on Geronimo but I liked his potential. Never got enough chances imo. Bates just hasn’t lived up to the ranking but I can see him gaining confidence and being a killer.


Reneau, Gunn, Bates seemed like good buddies. Lots of impacts.

I suppose, trust in staff until they blow it.. it’s teetering for me.

If they can create a top 25 season out of this mess I’m back on board.

I think we all know how I feel about Geronimo.  He got a lot of chances.   I agree that Bates hasn’t lived up to his ranking.

I wouldn't miss those two much if they were to leave.  Bates was highly rated, but aside from sometimes getting hot he really didn't play up to it.  Geronimo is athletic but not much else, he's an athlete on a basketball court as I've said before; kind of hard to say he deserved more chances when he couldn't make the most of what he got.

Between the two I think there's a better chance of Bates putting it together because he was just a sophomore.

Geronimo usually couldn't make the most of the chances he did get, kind of hard to justify giving him more.

Another way of looking at this is that Bates is not recognized as very athletic, and Geronimo was not highly rated.

Maybe you look at it that way, I don't. Highlighting a player's strength doesn't mean that qualities not mentioned are weaknesses.

Oh I agree.  That’s what I’m saying.  He literally got too many chances.  I thought from the first moment I saw him that this was too big for him.  It surprises me that some still think he should be getting minutes and the talk about him not getting enough chances is just not true.
