Never have heard much on this kid. Starting to build up some decent offers. I guess there might be some interest according to this Link.

He attends the same high school my son attends and we see him all the time. He is a beast. I think he is a little slow and could lean up some but would be a huge addition to any team.

He also won't face any good post competition as long as they play Fort Wayne area teams (I'm from there), so I would expect some big numbers every game.

@Biggs_Swanigan Thank you to coach Coach Crean on the offer and privilege to maybe one day to play in assembly hall #iubb

Dude is agile for a young big.  He will only get quicker and better.  I would pay attention to his summer numbers though.  Like it was mentioned earlier there aren't any good bigs in the area.  Last real good big from the area was Zach Randolph and even he had Sean Kline and Stephens from the area.  This kid has nobody.  Summer will be important.

2016 C Caleb Swanigan tells our Brian Snow he may visit for this Sunday's game against Ohio State.

[ccgeneral 38,084]

Not aware that he made it to the game. Anyone hear?

[HoosierSadaseci 2,258]

I'm really intrigued with this kid, sounds like a beast.

[LockdownD 2,221]

Hope coach makes this kid a top priority. In-state bigs are hard to come by.

The 6-foot-8, 280-pound Swanigan was named an IBCA/Subway Player of the Week last week after averaging 25.5 points and 9.0 rebounds in two games, including dropping a career-high 36 points on Class 4A No. 4 North Side.

 

He continued his hot streak this week by scoring 20 points and grabbing 20 rebounds in a victory over Huntington North to open sectional play.

 

Indiana had shown interest in Swanigan for some time, although it hadn't been as heavy as other programs such as Michigan State and Pittsburgh before the offer.

 

“It means a lot getting recruiting in-state by Tom Crean and the organization they have,” Swanigan said. “It's a deep tradition the Hoosiers have in Indiana … it's a big deal.”

 

Assistant coach Kenny Johnson contacted Swanigan early last week and then gave the phone to Crean, who told Swanigan that he and his staff and been watching him since the summer.

 

“(Crean said) how he likes how I can step out and play outside like guys like Noah Vonleh and Cody Zeller,” Swanigan said. “It was a nice talk.”

Can the state police secure our borders to keep Izzo and Beilein from poaching our talent? Would love to see this kid with an Indiana jersey on at AH.

Dude reminds me of Zach Randolph at that age, without the gun issues.
