One of Carlyle/Rice

Leland Walker

One of Hickman/UE Kid

Amari Williams

id be ecstatic about

I’m not sure why it would have to be either/or with Hickman and Humrichous-two very different players who both are good shooters. IU could really use both, especially in a potential class of so-so shooters like Carlyle, Rice, Walker, etc.

I would love to have both along with Williams and ether Walker/Carlyle/Rice, it would be nice to have another 6-9” shooter like a Ted Kitchell.

Just trying to be realistic. Would love to have both.

He’s not a “shooter” but is a former IU recruit who’s now in the portal fwiw: Arrinten Page, who I guess would qualify as a rim protector.

Which Davis?  From Butler? Arkansas?  Elsewhere?

Johnell Davis and the link to Adragna's site is below.  There was a tweet yesterday from one of the national guys that suggested getting admitted into Michigan could be an issue for Davis.  Don't remember who it was and I'm not going to sift back through 18 hours of tweets but it was a national guy and not small time hack with 15 followers.  If he knew what he was talking about it could be the first test case to see if Dusty got any commitments up front to ease the admissions requirements.

Tony Adragna's latest update also includes Danny Wolf from Yale and again yesterday someone on X/Twitter commented that we had been in contact with Wolf.  And if you recall, when he first entered the portal it was with the caveat "Do Not Contact".  Again, if that info is accurate - and that's anybody's guess - it would suggest Wolf's camp initiated the contact.

Tyme mentioned Wolf again last night. 

If Wolfe can play D for the 5 and then spread the floor on offense to give room for MR, Gallo and Tucker to operate inside the ARC that could greatly help our offense.

The issues in the past had been with undergrad admissions.  I think if he graduated from FAU -- I assume he would have since he was there four years -- I'm not sure it would be.

Penn transfer guard Clark Slajchert is down to eight schools, source tells @On3sports: UCLA, Cal, Utah State, San Francisco, Stanford, Davidson, Michigan, USC.   The 6-1 senior averaged 18 PPG this season on 42.2% from three.

Lot of West Coast flair on that list and he is from Los Angeles.  Would be surprised if he ended up at Michigan or Davidson based on that list.

But it IS reasonable to believe Kanaan and Myles are better. 

Of course it's reasonable,  and if that's why the staff prioritized them over others it will be proven out next year. I was simply agreeing with you on strategy.
