yes

My guess is Dorn is on campus today and baba miller & fedx2 visit this weekend. 

reasoning: trilly/peegs/btown spoke about dorn - multiple stories from IU media sites about Fedx2 and Miller as soon as they entered the portal - great weekend to have them.

if we got all 3 that would be amazing. 

euro guy seems like wishful thinking.

sounds like we all but have Leo Curtis wrapped up but are focused on the portal right now.

Thanks. Couple thoughts:

-Between Dorn and Drake they’ve got some guys really grinding Colonial tape.

-Commonalities offensively across the perimeter players so far: high volume possession users, mostly high volume 3pt shooters with good efficiency (Conerway the exception here), ability to hit from deep, lots of efficient finishers, willing passers.

By deep I mean like especially so, almost all the scouting videos mention hitting ~8 or more from beyond 25’, even Conerway

Wild how this staff keeps things so under the radar, main media outlets don't pick up stuff until it's happening or already happened. a few players visiting this week/end, including a couple bigs, but will let those names be shared when media gets them. Seems apparent the staff doesn't want it widely known until they're on campus

I love this. Shows the coaching staff is completely in control.

[Hoosierfanyuh]

Just want to reiterate that is just my guess lol

Oh no, no, no. Since we interpret that as “Baba Miller didn’t show up this weekend for his visit like I told everyone to bet their house on”  it will be carved into your headstone if the kid rolls into Bloomington on Monday morning. 

You know how this goes.

Right? Haha. Just trying to pair tea leaves together. I’m also a fan of all the Lowkeyness from the staff.

His contract says he doesn't have to tell anyone he's on a visit. :-)

Do people have a preference for federiko vs Miller? I feel like Miller has more potential but Federiko knows his established role as a rebounder and lob threat and has at least proven himself at texas tech last year

My favorite is whichever one says yes first

[JimmerNoe]

Just a brief glance but this guy seems like he would be a deep bench backup to TDV and Miles, is that the sense everyone else gets? I will never complain about loading up on the perimeter but we are getting a pretty full roster with only one 4/5.

I know the staff has some bigs on deck but just interesting that we will probably have 7-8 guard or wing players before our second big commits.

Would like both. I doubt that is realistic. I think I lean Federiko because he knows his role and doesn’t need the ball to be productive.

With Dorn? Dorn put up similar numbers to Miles in a much better conference. Not convinced Miles is that much better than Dorn, if better at all, at least offensively. Not a bad problem to have either.
