Brass Cannon Posted March 16, 2019 Posted March 16, 2019 1 minute ago, HoosierTrav said: We have a 5* center, Mr. Basketball coming in next year. Something we DESPERATELY needed due to DeRon Davis’ health. Keion hurts but you’re not convincing me one iota that Archie has lost recruiting momentum. Quite the high expectations to think he is falling short bc he didn’t get two 5* recruits in his second class. If next years class stinks, I’ll start to inch into your side of the fence. Who else are we in on this class. Still don’t have a shooter. Quote

MemphisHoosier Posted March 16, 2019 Posted March 16, 2019 Really curious to see how the minutes shake out in Lexington next season, there are sure to be some hurt feelings with three incoming recruits b/w 6'6" and 6'7" plus the returnees. hoosierdogg 1 Quote
Ryno6284 Posted March 16, 2019 Posted March 16, 2019 Jerome Hunter never playing a game at IU is a bigger deal than Keion picking UK or Romeo not living up to expectations for one year and going pro! Jesus people calm down, I truly believe Archie is laying the groundwork for longevity here! The short term really sucks, but let it unfold, "the best things come, to those who wait!' Before a smartass comments, I know, we have been waiting a long time. woodenshoemanHoosierfan, Ranger78, HoosierAloha and 4 others 7 Quote

And if they fire him after 2 years you can FORGET ABOUT IU getting any good coach. Because what coach in their right mind would want to come here and be given so little rope. So yes. Let’s fire him and then the only coaches that would want to come here are CC coaches or coaches that have been fired multiple times. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Why would another Coach want to come here? Million dollar salary, great facilities, decent history, basketball state, great campus, one of the largest recruting budgets. Any Coach that would be worth the hire would look at the two year body of work by Miller and understand the deal....wouldn't even phase them Quote
pumpfake Posted March 16, 2019 Posted March 16, 2019 4 minutes ago, Demo said: The kid was patient enough to wait out higher UK priorities to land where he clearly wanted to be. Definition of a business decision. Good for him. I hope experiencing that brazenly mercenary culture is everything he’s hoping for. I really hope going forward that CAM realizes this is what happens when you aren't the prettiest girl at the ball. If a recruit is pulling this slow strip tease, be prepared to prioritize someone else. Seeing that we are getting in late on some guys like LQ, makes me wonder if we didn't take our foot off the gas, expecting Brooks to come to IU. I also have to say that daddy Brooks "how much this means to me" comment had to be a bit of punch in the nuts to Schilling. Then again, I have been getting the feeling that Senior is a bit of a Lavar Ball type. reconmkd, Rico and Bowhunter 2 1 Quote
Bailey7878 Posted March 16, 2019 Posted March 16, 2019 Checked the Kentucky board and looked at about 15 posts. Three of them were “not sure he’ll be a good fit.” ”how tall is he? Don’t care to look it up.” ”What position does he play?”They dont care. They get 5 five stars a year Sent from my SM-J700T using Tapatalk Quote
Bailey7878 Posted March 16, 2019 Posted March 16, 2019 I honestly wanted TJD more the Keion before TJD commited. This isn't a big deal people. We are going to get talent that is here for 2-3 years instead of what we saw with Romeo this year. Now whether or not that can hang with the likes of UK or Duke, remains to be seen! Its a big deal right now. Next year looks rough.Sent from my SM-J700T using Tapatalk Quote

Hoosierfan2017 Posted March 16, 2019 Posted March 16, 2019 Still think iu would've been his easier path to the nba. Here, he would've gotten as many minutes as he wanted from day 1. At UK, he will have to fight just to see the court. Plus, Calipari won't hesitate to recruit over him. But, oh well. He didn't want to be a Hoosier so whatever. ray, Napleshoosier and Iugradman 3 Quote

He’s the best freshman we’ve had since Zeller Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app Red1, HoosierDYT and Iugradman 3 Quote
