Did Galloway take Goode to Upstairs over the weekend?  It worked for Ballo

How long could it take to edit together the clips of him torching us last year?

it took awhile for the to sprinkle in a few clips of Ballo in IU gear

hopefully the video is taking some time to get ready

TJ Power is a better fit for the current roster than Essegian is imo

close the deal Ya and Walsh!

Starting 5:

Rice 

Carlyle

MM

Reneau 

Ballo

next 5:

Cupps

Gallo/ Newton 

Tucker/Leal 

Thiero or Power

Malone 

 

Newton got to practice a decent amount plus sit and learn and I think he explosive like Rice and Carlyle m. If he is confident and not scared of hurting his knee and is comfortable in the system he could be a player. It’s not like he was a 3 star coming in. If I remember correctly he also has a big wing span. 

IMO.

yes of course

would wreck havoc

Adou Thiero(6'8" 222lbs listed as a guard on ESPN but more likely a SF imo) visited IU during his original recruitment coming out of high school, a versatile defender and has a high motor.  Isn't Bryson Tucker considered to be very similar to that of Adou?  Can you imagine them two on the court together.

TJ Power is an absolutely perfect fit.  

say it louder for them up in West Lafayette to hear.  YES!

wut

what I meant was if Malone said yes and say the likes of Power said yes to IU, would IU rotate with MR, Ballo and Power with Malone being odd man out? With MM spelling time at the 4 on occasion and MR at the 5 or Power at the 4 and MR at the 5 while Ballo is on the bench

Went well and he is a take. He's trying to decide if he wants to take anymore visits. 

If Malone says yes, does that likely push out any other stretch big off of the bench?

13 minutes ago, DC2345 said:

Things aren't over with Essegian and their is mutual interest with IU and Power. Ya and Walsh are on Power

Didn't really see the court much at Duke BUT I think he'd be a solid stretch big off of the bench(small stretch).  and he'd still have 3 years left(including this upcoming season).  

Thoughts on how TJ would fit in at IU?

THIS I WANT!

not comparing him to sparks but i just worry after seeing what sparks had to offer while playing well at Ball St then coming to the Big Ten he flopped.  Time will tell.  Certainly has upside

I think in this scenario-- Malone might be the first big off the bench, but the 3rd or 4th player off the bench. I think MM sliding over to the 4 is where the lineup will go when Malik or Ballo come out of the game. 

that is fair - MM able to slide to the 4 spot is/will be HUGE.

1. Rice, Galloway, Cupps

2. Carlyle, Essegian, Newton

3. Mgbako, Tucker, Leal

4. Reneau

5. Ballo, Malone

Malone scares me as first big off the bench, especially given Reneau foul issues

I think Kanaan prioritized Indiana. 

Yasir is likely why Kanaan prioritized Indiana imo.  Not so sure we get Kanaan without Yasir

Welcome Ballo!

so who gets our $1.2 million now assuming Ballo doesn't come here?

Ballo is apparently taking his visit to Louisville later today

and he we go again.  better hope we don't get outbid.  now i can get stuff done i suppose.

Galloway and Walsh following Ballo now via Instagram.  Total rises to 8 individuals tied to IU now
