And with a fifth year Gallo, Payton Sparks, Gabe Cupps, Malik Reneau, and hopefully CJ Gunn and Jakai Newton setting the tone in the locker room. 

Good times ahead? Seems overwhelmingly likely.

Banks?

My 5 are: Fland, Perry, McNeely, Newell, Bidunga. 

The amazing thing is IU has other possibilities at each of those positions, some of which are more talented! 

ie Givens, Harper, Mustaf, Betsey, Queen, not bad.

Which 5 '24 recruits would make your ideal class?

I'm going to answer the question that was posed. So ... not the most achievable class for '24, but the ideal class:

1. Dylan Harper - a no-brainer for me as the top/best player that we are recruiting
2. Flory Bidunga
3. Liam McNeely
4. Boogie Fland
5. Asa Newell

And as good as they are, two or three of those five wouldn't start. It's not realistic that we could get all five, but we are squarely in the running with all of them (okay, maybe less so with Flory) and that's my order of 'ideal-ness'.

Those 5 are my ideal but totally unrealistic recruiting class as well.

On paper, that would be IU's best recruiting class ever. Possibly the best ever period with 5 top 10 players. Duke and UK have pulled off some amazing classes but I don't know if they've ever landed 1/2 of the top 10 in a single class.
