Blackmon Thread

Did the Op of the original thread say NBA? I was under the impression he was talking about a transfer.

Hope that he stays. Seems like a good young man. Continues to develop his game, offensively and defensively and enters the NBA when he is prepared to play at that level and makes us all proud that he was a Hoosier.

Leaving would obviously hurt him especially if he wants to get to the NBA as soon as he can. But I think in the long run he can end up in a team where he can develop his defensive skills and be a part of a final four or championship team. I honestly don't blame him if he wants to transfer.

That is what I thought he was alluding to as well. He may stay but I find it interesting they the OP took the post down

OP implied a transfer. Also mentioned a player that had been recruited by IU was somehow involved.

A former recruit was the claimed source who was friends with JBJ.

If you are referring to my post, there no was no hate.  I said that if he does not play better D, then he should ride the pines and that goes for the rest of the team, and if the coach can not get them to play D, then we need to get a new coach who can.

Nothing to see here, guys. I had a PM conversation on another site with a trusted poster this evening. Obviously things could change, but Yogi's decision is the one to watch.

I think if he decides to leave...some of the other players (i.e. Blackmon, Troy) will be even more encouraged to leave.

Only two players fit that profile. Neither will be in college when he would be eligible again.

Well I hope he doesn't leave., but if he does I look for us to have a new coach.

I talked with him. Yes a transfer might have been implied but the info he gave me doesn't equate to that NECESSARILY.

To sum it up, I don't expect a transfer at all.

The info was interesting but it's kids talking about things. The feelings James has are not surprising all things considered.

This.

Now if he didn't have to sit a year, all bets would be off.

I'd be scared then.

What about Europe? 

[WayneFleekHoosier 48,847]

What about Europe?

nope. Family. Proximity. NBA Stock, and education are important to him and his parents

Gotcha. 

[TomPritchard25 526]

He's looking for ANYA option to leave that is viable. Europe is dumb, won't do that. If he can somehow find a way to transfer w/o sitting he'll leave. If he can or has impressed some NBA team SOMEHOW and will get drafted in 1 two rds, I say he's gone.

I'm not saying he's gone, that's not what the source said and what the texts with JBJ Said. It's, he wants to leave.
