(2015) PF Juwan Morgan to IU

[hoosierpap 14,300]

Also, Washington offered another Canadian today. 6-10 Matthew Neufeld, possible 2014 guy who has quite a bit of skill, imo.

Seen that Dean Wade is blowing up too kinda like Kyle Guy did. Apparently had a great July. I am not sure where we are headed recruiting wise. I had someone tell me IU won't get a single 4 or 5 star in 2015. I thought that was completely bogus initially but I am getting more and more worried.

When I heard about the Etherington and Hollowell transfers, I thought we'd fill those spots with Stud grad transfers or something. I was as shocked as anyone when we signed Priller and April. The longer this drags on, and the less we are favored in any recruitment has me quite worried.

Back on point. Morgan would be a good addition. He could be a Christian Watford type 4 in time.

I don't mean to continue to derail this thread, so I'll keep my opinion here short. It's hard to commit to a program where the coach is on shaky ground. Think about it from the recruits point of view. If Crean wins this year, even the 2015 class could be impressive with spring signees. We may not know them even now. Recruiting is so fluid, and at the moment our momentum is not there. It really starts on the court. That, to me, is what was so impressive about Crean's recruiting wins in the early years. Obviously, a few ideal in-state classes coinciding with the "bringing the program back"  pitch helped. 

 

If I had to guess I'd give IU the lean here on Morgan. Morgan helps with Milton, but it's far from a lock for Milton. No idea how Missouri is doing here but they are going to be hot with the new coaching staff.

[WayneFleekHoosier 48,474]

Sounds about right.

[WayneFleekHoosier 48,474]

Crystal ball pick for us today and Shake from a Wisconsin writer.

I like Juwan as a 4 very much. I would be thrilled with this!

[Walking Boot of Doom 18,170]

Really like him as a wing player. He's not the post player we need, but he's really talented. I hope he and Milton make it to IU. I really enjoyed watching them play in the Peach Jam.

Jerry Meyer seconded the CB picks of Juwan Morgan and Shake Milton to IU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Might be something to it???

Also Elijah Thomas (5star) CB pick to Illinois. Other schools with CB: Baylor, Ok St, UNLV, and SMU.

Talk about total slime. 5 of the shadiest schools in recruiting. Total dirt!

Don't know if this is common knowledge or not, but I saw a tweet that said Morgan is taking an official to Washington. The source cited "sources", but not sure how resourceful the source that put out the tweet is. :) @pnwhoops: 2015 Juwan Morgan PF according to sources making an official to UW Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners

We got an OV set! Gonna move this to the mainboard now.

With two schools pushing the hardest, Juwan Morgan added another contender.

 

The four-star Waynesville (MO) power forward set official visits to Vanderbilt (Aug. 28-30), Indiana (Sept. 12-14) and Washington (Sept. 26-28), his Mokan Elite AAU coach, Rodney Perry, told SNY.tv.

Sorry folks, looks like the dates are messed up in the above post.

Frank Cusumano @Frank_Cusumano
Chris Pilz, coach at Waynesville, says  he and his star player, Juwan Morgan, a 6-8 220 pd forward, had a great unofficial visit at #Mizzou

[ccgeneral 38,084]

I think Kasongo or Holt could possible impact Morgan. I'm cool with that. The time is now, not '15 or '16. I would love to have 3 serviceable bigs though...

'15 Thon>Kasongo>Morgan>Holt

That's the dream list in my mind right now.

I just hope we don't lose Morgan and or Shake over Kasongo and or Holt.  I would rather have Morgan!

[WayneFleekHoosier 48,474]

I really like Morgan as well. Hope we still pull him no matter what! I think I'm done worrying about 2015 recruiting for a while though. (Probably a couple days) It's all been a mess.

Not even sure who or what to root for, it's just too confusing!

I like Kasongo though based on limited footage and intel.
