If Trayce doesn’t know, then their friendship has been really played up, because someone you apparently talk to everyday would know when you knew 

He’s probably a good enough friend that they will still be friends after Brooks goes to UK.

I’m sure he is, that’s not what I’m saying. I bet he knows, and is simply supporting whatever decision is made 

[Hoosierfan2017 23,145]

How often do friends go to their friends' announcements? If they were in the same city then it'd make sense regardless of where he's committing. Go to support a friend, not a far drive, no biggie. But driving all that way the night before a semistate game just to watch him commit to UK wouldn't make much sense to me... I guess we'll find out soon.

lol even in Keion’s own thread at UK board it’s nothing but talk about their other players...

Sounds like Kentucky from what a lot of people are saying. Oh well.

This is what I keep coming back to. I know they’re good friends and talk everyday but... wouldn’t a call or text saying I’m going to puke be enough? Two scenarios about Franklin and Jackson-Davis attending

1) they really don’t know where he’s committing and just hoping it’s IU. Why wouldn’t Keion tell them though? Maybe they are good enough friends to make that drive for a puke commit to support their friend.

2) they know he’s committing to IU.

That’s the thing. Both TJD and Franklin. That’s a long trip for two IU commits to see their friend spurn IU for UK

[Hoosierfan222 734]

It seems really weird for TJD to drive 2 and a half hours on the eve of a semi-state game, when he wouldn’t even get back till midnight probably for Keion to commit to UK.

It most certainly is but there sure is alot of kentucky rumblings so i guess it could go eithet way imo.

4+ hrs in the car for an occasion that lasts literally 2.4 seconds? Hahahah.

“They’re really close friends”- lol...oh okay. Either TJD & Franklin don’t know what he’ll say or they know he’s picking IU.

No way in heck they are spending their Friday night in the car to congratulate him in person on picking UK. That makes zero sense. Come on...

Or they are going to hang with there bud because this might be there last chance. 

Soon they will be on campuses with classwork. Then within a few years 2 of the 3 will possibly live on different coasts.

I was told I was being negative when I complained about Crean in year 4. I was told I was being negative when I had concerns despite being 12-2. 
I doubt I’ll be eating crow. 

You just had to eat crow the last time you “got real” and said we wouldn’t win another game, hence your new signature.

In absolutely no way shape or form is recruiting momentum loss when we have signed the likely Mr. Basketball for the second year in a row after recruiting a top 5 national recruit in the prior class.

I hardly said we would never win another game and stop pretending like that was blown out of the water. We could very well be finishing 1 game above .500. Not exactly ridiculous situation.

This was Zion Williamson’s Crystal Ball before he committed to Duke so who knows.

Hottest of hot takes.

Call me crazy, I don't think driving a couple hours to go watch my bud pick a different school is the best way to "hang out". Especially considering Keion will be swarmed with media regardless, and also TJD has a game tomorrow so like, no. If they were that desperate to see each other I don't think they'd be "best friends". That's just me though my guy.

I did not realize they were such good friends. If they knew he was for sure going to kentucky I dont think they would go. My guess is he has not told them either way. But everyone other than some on iu boat boards think he is going to kentucky.

What kind of friend would want you to come to his announcement knowing that you had a 2hr + drive to and fro on the eve of your Semi-State game just to announce the other school?

Yeah Brooks will be done with all this. High schoolers don’t go to bed at 10:30. Hate to break it to ya.
