Also i bet they werent complaining when CDD was coaching them to some major W’s last year with and without his son. They are probably mad about the way he left but boohoo lmao 

Plus the kids he recruited at WVU just aren’t kids he’s really going to recruit at IU nor would I want him to bring them. Honestly the only other one I would’ve been happy with was Stone but I don’t even think he entered. As far as the freshmen recruits one went to high school in WV, the other two have connections to other assistants he didn’t bring with him. He didn’t bring his assistants for a reason and I trust him until he gives me reason not to.

Sums it up. Texas Tech recruiting over him. Indiana fanbase hoping to get him.

I think we agree about most of the players but this one we may disagree on. He averaged over 20 mins a game on an elite 8 team that almost beat the national champ. That's a nice rotation piece to have. If his shot improves a little and becomes more consistent this would be a solid pickup

Seen him posting on a couple sites and he is like at a hit rate of 2%.  I saw him posting here and was like will let him be but just sick and tired of his schtick.  

My opinion? (Almost always) for better or for worse, people on this board are 1) very forgiving, and 2) pretty darn good at figuring each other out.

IU offers Butler CC big Emeka Opurum. His conference’s DPOY. Butler is where Bargen used to coach, though obviously he pre-dates the kid. 7 footer who averaged 2.6 blocks in 22 mins. Best case scenario there’s your rim protector. Worst case he’s 5 fouls. 3 years left.

Well it’s late night.  Had Wilkerson committed to Kentucky yet?   Maybe they swung and missed.  :)

Not to my knowledge and if he doesn't then I'd imagine he takes his Auburn visit. After that he'll consider which of the 3 best fits him as the $ will likely be equal at all 3. You know, like a rational human being.

Who are these rational human beings you speak of? They are people of legend and myth.

Obviously a highlight tape, but he appears to have really good hands and some already polished footwork which suggests he’s further along offensively than I would have guessed. Very intrigued by this one…definitely needs to bulk up.

Hate these vague posts 

They're meaningless.

If you have some info that you can share, just share it. If you can't, then don't. 

You sound like a magic eight ball...

Oh and love the profile pic. Baby Billy is by far my favorite character on the show.
