I don't mean that he won't play. I just mean that Crean has to go around and make sure everybody is feeling the love. If you jump into bed with a girl, and you see another good looking dude, and another good looking dude jumping in right after you....

... you might just want to be reassured the chick still wants your goods :)

(This was a horrible analogy)

WOW. You might wanna work on that one 41. HAHAHA first time I've legitimately laughed out loud on here in awhile.

I totally get that analogy - and he's right. Not everyone views Indiana as the only place to go. Can't just accept a verbal and then forget about the kid, especially if you're recruiting others at his position. Because the commitment is just that - verbal. If there's one thing the 2014 recruiting class taught us, it's that verbal commitments don't mean a thing. 

 

That said, it's hard to keep a kid happier to play backup minutes at IU than to start somewhere else. Especially when he's already 3rd on the depth chart, you're adding another star guard recruit, and talking about adding ANOTHER...

If I saw another good looking dude jump into bed and another good looking dude jump into bed, I'd be jumping the hell out of bed!

No kidding.  There are some things I'll share, but a girl is NOT on the list.  She's free to have friends, but that's too far.

Glad he's coming. Makes me feel a little bit better about keeping him. Signing period is only 5 days away. We definitely need it to get here so JBJ can sign the dotted line, along with RJ

You know, we were recruiting RJ long before JB2 flew the nest... I've read that he was up with playing with jb

 

So have I. I think the biggest problem as far as RJ goes is if we get Lyle. That adds three backcourt freshman, although I think RJ is a 4 year type of guy so I'm not too worried.

Well, if JL commits it won't be before next week, imo. He's headed to WVU today with a teammate from HP. The kid wants to play the recruiting game. I just looked at the Crystal Ball it's up to 72% IU but I wouldn't doubt he'll say something really nice about Huggins and there will be guys shifting to WVU. I just don't think he's anywhere near being a done deal. Not saying he won't end up at IU, just that I don't get the feeling he's ready to commit anytime soon. I think he said spring anyhow.

Pretty sure he's made it clear he's a spring commit. I'm happy with where we are now. RJ and JBJ give us a heck of a backcourt going forward.

Who knows, by spring Dante might decide a year at IU would be a good thing. (Not that I think that will happen but you never know.)

 

man. that would be so freakin awesome. That kid is incredible. He's MCW but less raw, better attitude (from what I can tell), MORE athletic, can draw the foul and finish, AND he's a knockdown shooter. Man.
