Combined shot chart for Brooks' games against Brownsburg and Center Grove.

He would be starting for us this year no doubt. A lot of our returners are gonna have to get a lot better as Brooks is very versatile.

Al will play the 2 probably with Brooks at the 3. Smith 4 and TJD at 5. 

Green and Davis still sparks off the bench. Wild cards will be Hunter and Race.

Is he a lefty? Seems to like that side of the court

You have no idea. Hunter has not played one game at this level yet.

It's funny you question this, but you also take Hoosier Guy's word as gospel. lol

He is a very well spoken young man. He would make us all proud to rep IU and hope he pulls the trigger ASAP!

Agree. What’s not to like? That interview was impressive. Said all the right things.

Keion is going to make us proud. He’ll be a great player for IU

He's right handed. Most right handed players are better from the left side because they have better alignment with the hoop. 

[MoyeNeeded]

Man, that interview. Poor kid lol! How many times do these guys ask the same questions just wording them different.

[JaybobHoosier]

Seems like IU is in great position right now (anything can happen), but getting Trace you would think puts us in the driver’s seat. I doubt Romeo stays another year, but could you imagine having Trace, Brooks, Phinisee, and Romeo all together..... that would be amazing!

I'll say it again...this kid is underrated. Kind of like Rob. Rob should have been a 80-100 type of recruit. I think Keion is top 15. Nothing against Trayce but I think Keion is better and could be a one and done. I think he commits before Christmas. The trio of Rob, Keion, and TJD puts us in a very good position. The one key is developing players. The was a problem in the past regime.Al and Justin have to continue getting better. I hope Jerome can come back healthy. Don't expect Romeo...Damezi and Jake are going to have to have a good role off the bench for this team. They aren't playing a lot and in the past players like that would give up and transfer (Remy, AE, Stan) and contribute at other places. 

[Stromboli]

Yeah, Keion is a stud.  Much more of a facilitator that what he gets credit for.  Highlight videos showing a dunk through the lane or whatever are fun, but don't really show the impact he has out there.  Keion is definitely not a post player, but both he and Archie like passing out of the post, so I'd expect to see him utilized there.  We'll have talent for sure.  I saw the info from jbell about De'Ron possibly graduating early.  Trayce won't be enough to cover for Juwan and De'Ron in there, so I really hope Race can get back.  We could stand to get another big immovable object to play in there.  

 

Others have said it, but Keion might be the best interview I've seen.  

 

Why are people writing off Damezi?  He's a talent, too.  With Evan's minutes declining, I wouldn't be too surprised if he gets in there more.

Damezi has looked pretty bad pretty much every time I have seen him play.   Hopefully once he gets more comfortable in the system, he will look better.

[HoosierCoop]

Please commit now Mr. Brooks!!!!!!!!!!!

[Bailey7878]

I never expected him to contribute much at all this year. His national ranking seems about right to me and he should not be part of the rotation this year. For that matter fitzner should never leave the bench either unless we are in dire need for threes at the end of a game.
