only have 2 currently, don't we? 

I suppose I'm assuming Goode will be back. Based on what I've heard the odds are much better than originally thought. But who knows.

A talented player with 3 years of eligibility that has already spent a season with DeVries is certainly worth pursuing. I only meant that he may be looking to go somewhere he's less likely to be competing for minutes.

Potentially quite big. 3 years of eligibility. Very good wing. But we may be a little stacked at that position (and thin at every other one lol)

We have 4 players on our roster so I wouldn't say we are stacked anywhere.

We have 9 roster spots to fill so we need depth every where. Not everyone coming in will be a starter so we need good backups as well.

The daily Hoosier lists Dallas James as a possibility to return.  Not saying he wants to, or we want him too but I thought he was a SR.

He didn't play, so he could potentially request a redshirt year.

it's an auto RS, I'm fairly certain

Could really use a Wilkerson to IU announcement today... or any time, really. But today would be awesome.

Give me a big white Eastern European who is fundamentally sound. Every team needs one in 2025.  Illinois has a whole team full.

My no information, but putting two and two together, guess is that he visits this weekend and we get the job done. Might be wishful thinking, but pakos and trilly don’t get their predictions wrong often

If every rumor is to believed, Auburn, Florida, and now Kentucky are gonna get him. lol

I'm just desperate for us to win a big recruitment.

Completely understandable. I get it. We’re all in the same boat. 

[JustWinBaby]

I remember when portal season felt like drinking from a firehose. Nowadays it's like a slow drip, drip, drip of information.

My prediction is we'll get some staff and player announcements in a flurry next week and then it'll slow back down. Only makes sense given how quiet it's been recently.

Apparently Duke is recruiting him, too. I still don't think Arkansas can be ruled out since he's from there.

I agree, it would be great to win this recruitment not just because we'd be getting a good player, but also because of who we beat out for him.

we're gonna need a bigger boat

Recruiting tidbits turned into Wilkerson is going to take some visits, and IU will probably get one

We are going to have some new assistants but I don't know who any of them are.

Our first weekend visit is going to be Reed Bailey, who is already committed.

As I said, it's hard to get info so far with the new staff, so I don't feel bad when I see this is what Rabby and others are getting. 

[Hoosierfanyuh]

He also said the staff liked to keep things private, so, if expect inside info to be at a minimum for portal season
