Cooper Zachary - Fishers HS

Cooper Zachary is a DOG! Watched him against Kokomo at the New Castle regional, Wayne in the Semi State, and Ben Davis at state. Incredible to see a frosh handle the pressure at that level and make virtually zero mistakes. Tenacious on D. 
 

Will be fun to see how good he becomes.

Isiah Hill of Pike will be one to watch develop under Jeff Teague.

• DePaul - October 16th

• Indiana - October 18th

Gardner Jr. is a speedy guard, who’s extremely quick off the dribble. Has excellent court vision. Very

No idea of what kind of potential this kid truly has, but he's put up some impressive scoring performances this season.  Attends Prestonburg HS, Prestonburg, KY.    If you really want to dive into his season you can do so on a game-by-game basis at:

At this point it feels like the staff is just going through the motions and not really trying hard at HS recruiting. Get a visit so that it looks like they're doing something then radio silence. I'm not even going to bother remembering this kid's name.

Saw it mentioned elsewhere that it was likely Jordy who got these 2 on campus but as for managing the recruiting side, no idea.  Since they're all likely out of a job, would seem to make some sense that they'd all be "auditioning" although we are still in the middle of our season and game prep should be the priority especially when we're no shoo-in to make the tournament.
