I have a mental block with that kid. Forget about him consistently.

Sam Kayser just tweeted that '28 Isaac Smith was transferring from Hargrave Military to Monarch Academy and lists several schools Kayser said have offered and he includes IU.  I don't buy it.  I can't find a single indicator that we have extended an offer to Smith.

No idea if there is genuine IU interest or not.  Just a '28 so lots of time if there is.

Cole Kelly, Neuqua Valley, sophomore, forward: Averaged 20.0 points, 8.0 rebounds, 4.0 assists, 2.0 steals and 1.0 block. Made 51% of his shots, including 70 3-pointers, and 81.6% of free throws. Conference player of the year and Illinois Basketball Coaches Association Class 4A all-state first team.

Reports are he'll make a UV on Oct. 17, for the IU - O$U football game and on the 18th we have our exhibition bball game with U of No Classes in Indy.  Won't be his first time on campus so it'll be a major surprise if he doesn't leave with an offer.  He played on the 17U Breakaway Basketball Club team on the 3SSB circuit.
