I assume the "quiet period" doesn't apply to agents or "camps" though, right? 

We're in a dead period. No in person contact, but electronic communication between coaches and players is fine.

Bossi is saying we are in good with Estrella.  I think we've all been circling around that one here for a few days too.

Jaeden Mustaf from GT is another one Bossi is linking to Indiana.

Finished the season strong. Played well vs Clemson. 2 years of eligibility left.

Let's go with

1. Burton,
2. Estrella,
3. Olsen,
4. Cooper, and then
5. A big guy that reads like Michael Durr, and
6. A combo guard from Eastern Europe that plays because we don't have enough guards, or a stretch four from Eastern Europe if staff thinks that Ristic is a keeper.

......An IU friend of mine texted me about an hour ago asking if I was aware that we got Adam Olsen from South Alabama. I said that I am aware that he's in the portal and that we might have interest but that I am not aware that we actually got him. He responded that a S Alabama friend & alum told him. When I followed up asking if he's convinced that his friend would know he responded with a fairly compelling answer.

I don't know anything about this X account to know if it has any credibility or not so....................

Sounds like tampering.  Our punishment should be not getting Adam Olsen.

Agree with this.  Prices seem much higher than last year.  How many of the guys we are after use us to drive the price up for places they are more interested in?

I really hope the staff can get it done on some of these guys. We really need to make the tournament this year to repair our name/reputation and build.  

My concern has always been yes we have money and playing time, but what else draws guys here?  Like you said, better first year would have gone a long way.  Hopefully this year with a full staff we can get it done.  

I expect no less than Louisville, Kentucky and Michigan's first year. I think Dolson has expressed that or something similar.

Ristic to the portal. 7 spots to fill

My guess is that he was told that he was projected behind Prince Moody on the roster for next year.

Bossi saying we are in the mix for Aiden Sherrill of Alabama. Rabby saying it’s just chatter don’t get overly excited about it yet. Hoping to hear more in the discord chat later tonight.

It's a strange group that he is listing but he definitely looks like a kid who can play in against P5 teams.  Freshman last year, averaged 18.4 ppg, 4.5 reb and 4.2 AST.

Players can't even make visits yet.  We've barely heard from any player who has them lined up regardless of team.  It's still the quiet period.
