Since they throw out so many scholarships, once they have what they need would they tell them to stay away? And if so, do you think this may be the situation here?

I seen yesterday that he may have his list out in a few weeks. Stay tuned.

 

CCGen, any word yet?   I didn't see any type of announcement when researching, but maybe you heard of a date?

It sounds like IU has stopped recruiting Minnesota forward Alex Illikainen via @247Sports #iubb

[WayneFleekHoosier 48,389]

that is an odd thing to ANNOUNCE.  why mention it at all?

[Hutch89 2,939]

Let's get after Big Zimm.

and/or BigSwan 

 

I really want one of those 2.  I am prepared to be disappointed though.

Indiana's in the perfect place for these guys to take serious looks at joining our program.  Come the 2015 season with Perea in his senior year, and if our boys can show we can shoot lights out this 2014 season, we would look mighty appetizing to a big man looking to show off down low.

Not sure if we're still after this guy but...

Good solid pick up for Wiscy---we will dread facing him in a few years!

 

I shouldn't say it ---but if he committed to IU people would complain about another 3-4 star player---but he goes to Wiscy and he's a solid get...frustrating!  Kid is a player and a good get!
