Ultimately, the Indiana record books will show both provided a similar value to the program.  Don't think you can go wrong with either. 

Hopefully we host their new school next year. The Drake and/or Harris tribute video would be electric at AH

Agreed... and TBH, comparing any possible recruit to Tucker DeVries is, IMO, not complimentary. If this is CDDV's direction, we are screwed.

Yes and yes. I did appreciate Tucker changing his game up to more of a glue guy getting his hands dirty, but he was the poster child for the athletic difference between the MVC and p4.

Josh Harris to the portal.  All time great Hoosier. 

I’m curious what it pays to rehab an injury and enjoy the Bloomington night life for a year?

My 5 are on the floor. 

(Dear Cook Family: Please donate an additional 8 mil in NIL for this to happen)

I don't dislike it:

Presuming we bring back last years 3 frosh and the incoming 3. + Dorn. We need 6 legit p4 players. I'd ask myself who has the relationship with Sherrells agent and who else does that person rep? That's interesting. Ill take your 2 bigs an Burton. But even though it looks like he's following Gainey to NCst I'm still fond of Boswell and I'll throw you a real reach with Rob Blackwell for a 2 big, 3 guard offense. 

That's one open spot. Big off the bench.....Scharnowski from Belmont.

Also, terrible hands, maybe the worst hands since Larry Richardson. That kid fumbled a ton of passes. 

Uh, Justin Smith would like a word! I imagine he wets his pants regularly because he fumbles getting it out in time. Worst hands ever. 

As for Boswell from Tenn...6.2ppg from your starting SG is rough. I get he's a defensive stopper, but a career high of 13pts is a concern, at least to me.

Alas poor Josh, we hardly knew ye but you'll always be a Hoosier.

It sounds like we have the money for 3 high ticket players. Now let’s hope we get the right ones. I’m guessing a PG, a big and a scorer but we’ll see.

Good point, I actually had forgotten about Justin Smith.

I hope you don't dislike it.  I dont even think this is possible with our current NIL.  (Unless Burton is cheaper than I think)

I'd love Burton, Sherrell, and Harris.  My guess is it ends up being Burton, Estrella, and (insert scoring wing here).

I'm gonna guess with some level of sanity and probability our next years line-up. 

Estrella 2m

Sherrell 3.5m

Dorn 700k

Haralson 2m

Burton 2m 

There's probably 1.5 in the other 6 still on the roster. That's around 1 mil for a combo guard off the bench that can fill it up. Probably a mid major. I think Kavala will be a rotation piece, scared a bit of the durability of Burton in the Big Ten.

Haralson going to command way more than that

When it comes to bad hands, I refer to the player who inspired one of the best IU message board user names of all time - "Hands of Blab".  LOL

[AH1971]

Jordan Geronimo had the worst hands I’ve ever seen.

Not to derail the most important current thread on this or any other fan site, but since the hands thing came up with several truly excellent candidates mentioned, got to chime because their is an actual correct answer:

Hanner Perea says hola.

Kid had flippers.
