Haven’t watched a minute of him other than videos, but a friend coached him playing 15U with BBE and LOVES  him. Raves about his vision and decisions. Swears there’s a range of outcome for him that includes being a 6’9” primary facilitator.

He's our second offer on that class. It seems odd that we weren't his first offer. In the big picture it doesn't matter but what are the rules of operation in the recruiting department at IU? 

[Chris007]

Awesome. We'll probably recruit him for three years, and then someone will swoop in and get him at the last moment.

Woodson probably won’t even be the coach when this kid get into college

Ok, I need help from someone who knows southern Indiana HS hoops.i want to get over and see Mitchell in person if I can fit it in. Take a look at the schedule above and tell me which are the games to catch or the games to definitely avoid. Appreciate it.

Jeffersonville would definitely be the best one to catch.

You're reading my mind. It's a deep class with a little bit of everything.

Some down here are surprised he hasn’t gone to a prep school yet. I love loyalty he has with Reitz, should have a very good junior year coming up.

[Class of '66 Old Fart]

Announced today he's transferring to Spire Academy and its new head coach Kevin Boyle.
