WayneFleekHoosier Posted March 16, 2019 Posted March 16, 2019 Go get Matt Hurt as if your coaching life depends on it. Offer him a job with Cuban after he finishes in the NBA. Ready. Set. GO!!!Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners ray, HoosierAloha and johnsoniu 3 Quote

pumpfake Posted March 16, 2019 Posted March 16, 2019 In retrospect, I think there were danger signs in this recruitment going back quite a while. Dominant father having problems as coach, abandoning his HS team to go to a basketball factory, and now electing to go to a NBA training team. I have to admit that I was always under the impression that Brooks didn't see himself (nor probably would be) a one and done. It turns out that is his prime focus after all. Quote

JaybobHoosier Posted March 16, 2019 Posted March 16, 2019 Sucks not to get Brooks, but wish him best of luck except if facing IU in the NCAA Tournament and with a national title on the line :) I don’t get people saying Archie is awful in recruiting. He got top in-state talent the last two years, but just missed on this one. He’s proven to stay with other top coaches, and that shows A LOT since he’s had a short window in recruiting at IU. IU will be just fine. The only thing I was a little discouraged with what Brooks said was about style of play. Idk if anyone else picked this out, but he said Coach Cal (I almost puked even typing that) doesn’t restrict his offense and let’s his players play. That could have been what sold UK, because Coach Miller runs a certain style offense. I get it, it sucks and some want to make every excuse on why we didn’t get him. We won’t get every recruit, but what matters the most is Coach Millers gets some of the top talent around and is close to landing the other top talent that doesn’t come here. That shows his commitment to recruiting top players to take this program to the top. Instead of sulking in the pits of misery, let’s support this program! Bad seasons happen and this was an underachieving one, no way around it, but programs have bad or disappointing seasons. We will be just fine, and Coach Miller deserves another year IMO before being on the hot seat. Everyone take a breathe and let’s focus on remaining 2019 recruits and grad transfers!

Bowhunter Posted March 16, 2019 Posted March 16, 2019 OMG people quit trying to twist everything no matter what into a positive. Some things just suck. It’s like nobody can handle the truth. We have to make this into a positive to cope. We lost a recruit to Kentucky. Wasn’t the first time, won’t be the last.This one stings and Brooks would have been a big addition to next years squad. Hopefully something good will fall our way for once. Right now it just plain sucks!Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app JaybobHoosier, Class of '66 Old Fart and Maedhros 3 Quote
