The Derik Queen comments are interesting. Sort of felt like they had begun to move on from him a bit. Apparently not.

I know it doesn't mean the world, but it is absolutely refreshing to see the comments that are being said about IU and the coaching staff from these younger players. How long has it been since we have had such  reviews of the staff? Starting to get the feeling that we may not have to sweat out some of these recruitments in the near future. Maybe not as many roller coasters.

I kinda got that feeling when the national guys said he was all but a given to Maryland and then ... nothing happened.

If we've got a featured role for him I'd expect we'll be sweating the announcement day.

Once the assistant coach left (all 3 left for head coaching coaching jobs so I’m not sure which one) things opened back up a little

I'll definitely catch a couple of his games this year and will be sure to report back! 

Personally would be a little surprised if we snag him from Rutgers... but not very surprised.

Here’s a hot piece of information on the Mgbako commitment:

Kenya Hunter on the Hoosier Hysterics today on the initiation of the recruitment: IU found out he was interested in IU when Woody, unsolicited, received a text from Mackenzie Mgbako’s mom requesting that IU and Woody get involved.

Coach Mike Woodson is THE Closer

That blows up the talk that it he was a UL lock at first and then a Kansas lock before IU came out of nowhere to steal the commitment. 

I wonder if they got the number from Harper.

Nah. That’s the old days.

Mackenzie is a CAA kid. We are a CAA staff.

I don't think this guy over on Rivals agree with you LOL!

Woodson is a ok recruiter Payne is a elite. 

4th in the big ten is not elite. He missed on alot of 2023 and 2022 kids.

So that must be the shenanigans Vernon was talking about. MM's mom slid into CMW's DMs and propositioned him about her son.
