With your 247 subscription do yourself a favor and head over to the Sparty 247 vip section and see how well they are taking this turn of events tonight.    Get your popcorn 

Michigan State fans are having a rough time on social media. I mean, we took their best football player, we’re gonna take their best basketball portal recruit, and big brother just won a national championship. Dark days in East Lansing, and I think we’re at the top of their s**t list. Gotta love it!

Aidan Sherrell probably went to sleep last night knowing he will announce his commitment to IU today and that we're going to pay him close to $4M to do it. Has to be a great feeling. 

The one thing I hope they really, really stressed with him as they were going over that biga$$ offer sheet is that he needs to get in the best shape of his life and be ready to go 40 a night with no problem even if he isn’t going to actually do it. When you watched Bama he looked gassed a lot and he wasn’t playing 30 mins. He’s also kind of thick, and I don’t mean that in a good way. Kid needs to get leaned out and get himself turned into a machine or he’s not gonna give you the ROI you need.

Don't they know we are waiting this morning.  What is taking so long, did they sleep in after partying all night.  LOL

[Asha’man]

Trilly saying no visit to MSU for Sherrill. Sounds like if nobody jumps in to compete with us financially he will be a Hoosier.

Lol ya the bama and SEC fans were saying he was Zion esque with his weight. He for sure needs to get in better shape

The other thing with Tiller is that he’s a little bit of a slow processor. He’s kind of a has to see it guy. 

Tiller with maximized potential would be a monster. He has a bit of the Andre Pattersons right now though.

I personally don’t see him as a 4 right now we’ll see 

[CSP]

For sure want Tiller, who is a 4. 

[Home Jersey]

Wonder if we have any visitors the second half of this week... Hall is my #1 want right now assuming Sherrell is onboard today

This is where I have him talk with our new, former NBA front office guy and have him give a no nonsense assessment of what he needs to do to get to the league.  I would have that happen with every player at the beginning of each season.

[Home Jersey]

Not sure that Reibe is going to buy the idea of him and Sherrell on the court together. He didn't want to split time at UConn next year so I don't know if he would view this as a possibly similar situation PT wise. I think defense would be kind of tough playing them together 

[CSP]

Tiller's rebounding #s are overblown. They're solid, as is, and he had to deal with Flory gobbling up a good number of them and Tre White is a good rebounder, too... 

Tiller would have been our best rebounder last season. He's also still just a SO.

I was a huge Tiller fan when we were trying to recruit him and Caleb Wilson. Comparing him to Wilson isn't necessarily fair, but I question his motor for the big ten. Jmo. 

 

Are we worried about Duke in the Sherrell sweepstakes?

If money really is no issue I’d get reibe and tiller and sell tiller on it basically being a 3 man rotation and he will get plenty of minutes and then sherrell probably goes pro next year if he develops and tiller gets the keys to the castle

And of course we've got the Spittoon!  I know that's on their minds 24/7 ;-)

I have no idea on Sherrell... but.. if we add Sherrell with what else we've added and THEN get Tiller.... that's a haul.... that's a dump truck sized HAUL in the portal. 

I mean, Tiller didn't play in CUSA lol.. he played 27MPG in the B12 with 17 starts--- 8P 6R 1B and was KU's 5th option offensively.

I see no way Reibe and Sherrell can play together. JMO

With a lot of folks sticking around for 2 years. The 27-28 team could be loaded with contributing players 

[Hoosierfanyuh]

Reibe can come off the bench. He’ll only be a sophomore. Bigs get in foul trouble all the time.
