Purdue crashed and burned against FDU. We know that already.

KU Twitter still feels very confident. Screenshot of a discord chat where at 9:30 they said he'd announce at this time. 2 hours ahead of when Osterman tweeted it. Doesn't mean anything definitively though

Between trains crashing, discussions about Steak Sandwiches, Chick Fil A and condiments, this thread has DEFINITELY gone off the rails.

I feel like the timeline of information traveling is tough to account for and also not worth reading too far into. Maybe I'm wrong about that. But FWIW, apparently someone charges $70 for VIP access to that discord. So I think it's someone fairly connected. That they had the decision time before Osterman wouldn't be totally shocking. Doesn't mean they also know the decision already/that's it's KU. Necessarily.

We will find out soon enough.

That’s why I tried to get it back on track, to pizza

I have the feeling we are getting punked in this recruitment.

Staff must have a plan A through E so I wonder what steps we’ve taken just in case. Recruiting isn’t easy and a player giving silence at a critical time of roster building is less than ideal.

I expect Kansas. No inside info, I just am not that optimistic about IU's recruiting against schools like Kansas, Duke, and UK. Hell, UT just beat us out for 2 recruits. Less disappointment expecting Kansas but that much happier if it's IU.

We know they have reached out to others while waiting. 

In terms of the silence, he just finished visiting IU on Sunday.....and was scheduled to visit Louisville starting tomorrow.  Getting a decision tomorrow is definitely quicker than it could have been.

If you do, can you explain it to me?   I wasn’t trying to do anything.

Is the train carrying ketchup as it goes off the rails?

We can only hope

If he chooses IU , some on thus board will declare us B1G champs and Final Four contenders. If he chooses KU, some will declare the season over and look for the nearest cliff.

When he chooses KU I'll say we'd better back up the Brinks truck for Phillips and Dingle or this team will go into next season with serious holes.

Guys…Bill Self did this while under investigation and didn’t get touched… Id love to be wrong but I wrote this one off when I heard it was down to us and Kansas. These kids are looking to get paid and I have a hard time believing we beat Kansas at their own game.

Part of the issue with that plan is you can’t just give MMs money to them when I am sure a lot of us was from Adidas and equal to Kansas. We could give the excess 

I still think it is IU. Really do. 

They have to figure out someway to start closing.  This roster still has glaring holes and so far the staff has failed miserably to address them and looks like options that are actually desirable are getting low.

The closer we get the more firmly I believe it's Kansas.  I'd gladly be wrong though.
