Good luck to Keion at UK. Lol, this dude is a hoot. He almost instantly resorted to "I didn't post that, someone else did under my account". Lol, own up to being an idiot wishing injury on a soon to be a college freshman. Some people just should maybe not consider watching sports, since they can't really handle it apparently.

Hillsdale87 Posted March 16, 2019 Posted March 16, 2019 If things had gone well this year I really think he would be at IU. Unfortunately, Cal keeps rolling and producing 1st round picks. I have no doubt Keion's parents believe he will be exactly that after one year. He probably believes it too. If Anthony Edwards had committed to Kentucky instead of Georgia then Brooks would probably have gone to IU too.

IU fans do it alot and its totally unrealistic. Sent from my SM-J700T using Tapatalk which in turn makes us pump up the team and have unrealistic expectations. i remember talking with my son early in the season about IU making the final 4. wow, do i feel stupid!

Basically he bought the sales pitch. 2. He can also compete for a national title at Kentucky. 3. All IU had to offer was playing time. Do I think he will be a first round pick after one year? No I do not but cal is a world class salesman. Sent from my SM-J700T using Tapatalk Archie is like Cal’s lil 2nd cousin or something and was consulted before Archie took the IU job.

Wake the F Up! Sent from my iPad using BtownBanners Yeah, made my statement about this before the announcement. Don't cheer for the school or it's players. Hell, goes for Duke and UNC too. There is a long list of very good players from our state that I've washed my hands of throughout the years starting with Kyle Macy etc.. Now, once in the NBA...sometimes a different story.

ap2345 Posted March 17, 2019 Posted March 17, 2019 All I’m saying about Brooks is that he struggled last year against Romeo and this year against Galloway. Is he talented? Yes but I don’t see a one and done and something about him always rubbed me the wrong way and I’m not sure why. IU will be fine as long as Hunter is healthy which is a big if at this point.

Honkyman Posted March 17, 2019 Posted March 17, 2019 We would have been better with Keion Brooks than without him. But the team's performance in January and February hurt us. Had Brooks announced in the fall like Jackson-Davis did we probably would have gotten him. But we didn't. I'm sure he will do well at Kentucky--maybe not one and done--but he will contribute positively. Time to move on. We have a strong enough roster to do better next year even if we add nobody else. Players have to improve upon their weaknesses over the summer. Hopefully nobody transfers and everyone is healthy. And, hopefully everyone buys in and the coaching staff figures out better how to run a more dynamic offense. I'll be cheering on the team in the NIT and I'm looking forward to a better season in 2019-2020. TXHoosierDaddy, mdn82, 8bucks and 2 others 5 Quote
Popular Post mdn82 Posted March 17, 2019 Popular Post Posted March 17, 2019 I was one of Brooks biggest early critics when it came to his attitude, effort, and skill level. I felt as though he was very similar to Wilkes and potentially would have trouble living up to his rating. That said he impressed me last summer and this year. It’s a miss. Nothing more and nothing less. It’s gonna happen when you go up against the schools we are for players. I personally feel some are overdramatizing the miss like it’s the end of the world. While a good player he isn’t the difference in 5-7 wins like some of you are acting. That’s absurd. That would put him on Zion Williamson’s level and he is not that. It’s a miss. Nothing more and nothing less.Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners Jam, Aeggie, Kepner and 8 others 11 Quote
