go iu bb Posted April 26 Posted April 26 Rabby says that Josh Harris wants to come to IU but interpreting one of his typically vague posts, it sounds like IU might be waiting on some others before taking him. "Several things still to play out." 3 hours ago, newcastle12 said: Isn't he 6'8 and 220? That's not guard size my dude. A bit undersized for a center unless he's very athletic, which I haven't seen that he is. Can possibly play that position in a pinch, but it's not ideal. 2 hours ago, ronzo4IU said: I thought Curtis was a done deal? I would also like to add Miller! Not a done deal.

BA47591 Posted April 26 Posted April 26 I look forward to seeing the offensive creativity. I'd be a bit more excited if it was Tyler Harris from Washington. I question the athleticism with Josh. He would be a nice add at this stage of the process though. Quote

Anyone have any pics of the Bloomington L5 weekend? Post them in the OT board or somewhere! Those of us living in such scenic places as, uh, Houston would appreciate it :) Quote

I’m sure they will all have their fun but let’s not make it a key selling point. Sell basketball first. I’d say yes. Our best teams had some party animals. Players are still 18-22 yr olds and they can’t play bball 24/7. May as well go to school somewhere that’s a good time. We can sell both bball and IU being really fun. With the right team culture, players can be trusted to party in moderation and at the appropriate times. Just my opinion. Update: @Asha’man the board clearly agrees with you! I could be wrong on this one... str8baller and Ctf9 2 Quote

They are interested in $, PT, their role and how it can help them in the future. These are no longer "student athletes" - they're professional basketball players who may attend classes (and that's fine). rayl456, Asha’man and Juwan Moye 3 Quote

lillurk Posted April 27 Posted April 27 I like both Harris and Curtis well enough, haven’t dug in deeply on either, and I realize they’re different sizes and styles. However, I’m not sure they’d both make sense together. Quote
