Tonight's game was boring as hell with Christ School defeating Rabun Gap 77-31 with a running clock the entire second half but it was not without its quirks.  No idea why, but the usual starters didn't enter the game until midway through the 1st Q and played roughly 3 min. into the 2nd.  They sat out the entire 3rd Q but then played the entire 4th so the starters basically each logged around 15 min. of court time.  Rabun Gap had a kid built along the lines of a high school football player.  Not overweight but very stocky.  Less than 3 min. into the game against the Christ School second string he tried to flex his muscle and then flipped the bird at the Christ School bench when he ran by.  He had multiple dust ups and in the 4th Q, he picked up his 4th foul along with a tech so he was done for the night.  The stoppage of play to separate the players along with shooting 2 foul shots for his 4th foul plus 2 foul shots for his technical must have ran at least 3 minutes off the game clock not that it made any difference at that point.  FWIW, for Manhertz's 15 min. he had 5p,  2r,  2a.

Decision tomorrow at 1pm.  All signs point Indiana.

It’ll shock a fair number of people if it’s not IU given that Duke Twitter seems to barely know who he is and UL Twitter consensus seems convinced that they missed.

Since it sounds pretty likely we're going to land him, there's a number of Christ School games available on Sports Engine if you haven't watched him play.  You do have to sign up with SE, but it is a free site.

He wears #0.

Great news.  Any indication if he will reclass or will he stay in 2027?

Reclass

so that will make 2 wing / forwards and a CG for next year's class.  Man, we need some bigs.  Hopefully they are on some in the portal coming up.

It's certainly good news, but please don't expect Karvala and Manhertz to jump right in and log 30 min/game.  Their bodies simply aren't ready for that.  Of the 3, Moody will be the most B1G physically ready.

Probably true, but Keaton Wagler says "ya never know."

Purely a gut feeling but if he opts to re-class I think we get him but if he stays a '27 I'm far less optimistic.

Realist! Probably realistic to add that we have a pretty low chance against Louisville too.

I was going to wait until tomorrow afternoon but to hell with it.  @Stuhoo I hope your realize you can't  spell 'gloat' without G.O.A.T.   :103:

Is this being streamed somewhere and I’m missing it? Everything about it and the way it’s out there certainly feels streamed and yet nothing I’ve seen actually says that.

Except he’s not scoring over 10 in HS in the majority of his games and he’s primarily a shooter.  Won’t have the handle to be a guard. Won’t have the size to be a big.  Stretch 4. 
 

I’ll be watching to see the vision.  I feel like he could have a Watford like ceiling, but it seems it’ll take him a while to fill out.  So, in that case, why reclass.   Hoping I’m missing something.

I do believe Trilly is implying we're getting a commitment today.  Wonder who it could be?????    lol

 

Well, that’s a little more than the usual GIF of some school’s mascot.

They have Big A, the European, who is currently Red Shirt. Will be RS FR next year fwiw
