Transfer Portal w IU Interest

[Home Jersey 5,413]

I am looking forward to having a serious threat on the offensive glass

Remember when spring was for baseball season and the spring game? Yea, me neither. Portal season is nothing if not entertaining.

You know I just thought about it...

We suck at shooting...

Woody had to take care of our shooting in the portal.

Does he go out and get shooters? NOPE.

Goes out and grabs an offensive rebounder for all the bricks.

Welcome aboard, Ballo!

Let's add Carlyle and Humrichous and we roll. All will come down to how well these guys fit together and how far this staff can take them. I'll be happy to eat crow about them.

Has Humrichous set a visit date yet?

Hoping we get to see Ballo, MM, Gallo, KC and Rice on the floor together at times this year, that lineup could be really fun.

No. Rabjohns thinks it may take time to play out since he wants to play professionally. Sounds like IU and Illinois. He seems to be okay with coming off the bench, which would have to be his role here.

Would be nice to focus on role players in mid April. Last year we took this all the way into May.

As much as I hate the whole process, portal season progresses at a much faster pace than high school recruiting.

Money talks. That's how the staff got Tucker and Ballo!

and you're dealing with people that are a lot closer to being men, then 14-18yr olds.

I assume by professionally you mean overseas?

That's how most big time programs were getting their players long before everyone was allowed to play the game.

• Did we play it a little back then? Probably.
• Did we play it up to the level of most SEC and ACC schools? Nope; nowhere near that.
• Did we play it up to the bankroll of our alumni base? Not even a little.
• Now that it is legal, allowed, and every team is playing it? We are pretty ******* good at it.

Well that's how every other school was getting it before NIL, I was told, so why care? 

[Feathery 3,990]

We never doubted. Portal recruiting > high school recruiting. Never even questioned it. Lol

I'm happy that IU is finally able to let its $$$ do some talking.

The shorter cycle and lots of other people's money is how MW gets it done.
