5. Ballo

2 spots left that they can use

Thanks.

To clarify, is Goode being sold on being a stretch 4? I was under the impression he was more of a 2/3. 

If so, does that mean we’re moving on from Anderson and Humrichous? 

Not super concerned right now about trying to get bench role/depth players. 247Sports said 2 days ago there’s over 1700+ players in the portal, with over 17 former burger boys. 
 

I think a lot of them (especially underclassman) are in for a wake up call.  
At the end of the day, only 68 teams get to the tournament. They may all have convinced themselves they deserve a starting role, but obviously numbers wise, only 340 kids in the entire nation get to be a starter and get to March Madness. And we all know it’s not 68 Power 5 schools getting there. So yea, a lot of these kids at some point are going to have to make compromises/sacrifices with their wishes if they want to be a part of something meaningful.

As expected 

Is the staff still pursuing Conwell or should we emotionally move on? 

Saw he was visiting Ohio St, who already has Thornton/Johnson as their backcourt.

Funny how things work out

Fland-> Rice

Queen-> Ballo

McNeeley-> MgBako & Tucker 

Obviously fingers crossed more on the way! 

😂😂

Ballo will visit Arkansas 

LOL why, Big Z already committed. 
 

I’m assuming it’s just a way to get a higher offer to send back to IU to match. 

If rumors/predictions are correct, we’re basically getting (3) of the top (20) players from the portal. I’d think that’s a better deal than McNeeley/Queen/Fland considering they all have proven abilities at the P5 level.

Aaron Bradshaw just committed to Ohio St.

Would assume the staff will push harder for Ballo or Payne to commit ASAP.

Like I’ve said already. I would too

Think we’ll cancel the Payne visit to secure the commitment or they trying to get both of them? 

Also another CB for IU

That person is a journalist for Zona, FWIW.

Looks like we’re his first visit. 
 

Is he a bigger priority than Williams/Wolf/Bradshaw or just that we have more mutual interests?

44 minutes ago, DC2345 said:

About the same. 

Would the staff take Rice, Carlyle, Hickman, and Conwell? Or just 2-3 and whoever commits first? 

Sorry if I missed anyone significant, this moves so quickly haha

No intel but won’t surprise me if more Duke bench guys leave for more PT.
