Like the passing ability of Thon Maker. He will lose the extra dribbling while going nowhere to the delight of the crowd when gets 2 college

Unless they've changed the schedule Maker doesn't play Sunday. He plays against Oak Hill tomorrow night.

Finished 24/13 by my count. Not as impressive as it sounds. Curie didn't play a guy over 6'5". Thon spent most of the 1st half picking and floating to the wing. Had more turnovers, 3, than buckets, 1. Much better in the 2nd half. His feet are so quick in the post and he is so long that if he played like a more or less conventional 4 he would be pretty much unguardable at the college level.
Would love to have him, but that pounding the ball thing has GOT to be coached out of him. Mitigates all of his advantages.

As will other recruits I suspect

Was not exactly a glowing endorsement of IU!

 

Sounds like we are 4th right now.

This is what happens when you keep a bad coach around past his expiration date. 

[Dalton26 16,892]

Keep the Crean stuff out of the recruiting threads.

@JeffRabjohns: Thon Maker 30 points, 12 rebs, 9 blocks; Matur Maker 18 points for @AI_Academy in 86-78 win tonight per @NorthBorderBall.

[WayneFleekHoosier 47,768]

We could use an a player like that, I'd say. 

 

Ed Smith is very worried about his college eligibility with regards to NCAA.  Talked about Cheick Diallo.  Diallo eventually got cleared.  Based on recent interview our coaching instability appears to put us on the outside.   

[ALASKA HOOSIER 11,253]

Yep. Haven't wanted to post anything negative regarding Thon and Matur so as not to freak anyone....but yep. Coaching instability is affecting alot

@BLUEChip_Miller: Five-star uncommitted 2016 forward Thon Maker finished with 31 points (11-16/3-6 3PT/6-7 FT), 11 rebounds and 4 steals in a loss Tuesday.

[WayneFleekHoosier 47,768]

And lol. @qdynasty102: @BLUEChip_Miller someone is going to pay big bucks for that kid.

If you call within the next 60 seconds, we'll give you not just 1 Maker but 2 Makers.  And, as an added bonus, you'll get Ed Smith too.  But you gotta call now.   I just can't shake the feeling that Ed's looking for something for Ed in this whole Maker brothers recruitment.

Ed Smith stated that Thon would visit Indiana, Notre Dame, ASU, and Kansas this winter.
