I agree, but many would say we’re no longer a blue blood program, but for those doubters it sure looks like we’re poised to reclaim that status.

I don’t know if you include Kentucky in that group any longer now that Calipari is gone, and with the mass exodus at Duke, we may be ready to fill the void, with the roster upgrades we’ve made this off-season.

With a cheap shot artist…should fit right in at Duke.

I have no doubt, and Michigan has always been a little outside that model anyway.

May is off to a good start, and will have Michigan in the hunt again.

Goode seems like the perfect fit to round out the roster by adding the “shooter” we desperately need. It could also help in recruiting other top in state players which has fallen off in recent years. The rest of the open spots can be filled with solid role players who aren’t looking for a certain amount of minutes, but could benefit by IU’s NIL budget similar to Leal’s situation. Let’s hope we get him…been fooled by the portal before.

Always trying to get credit. 😂

Can’t blame him…with 6 guards already it was going to be tough to get much playing time, but sure would have liked to have his 3pt shooting.

With all the talent we’re accumulating, I hope we can finally rebound and defend the 3pt line. How many times over the past couple of years have we been killed by offensive rebounds, and torched from deep by the opposing team? And of course, we need to hit some 3s ourselves on a higher volume of shots.

He’s the only one…everybody else is gone.

Good one 😄

Yeah, but their entire team is gone. I don’t think we’ll be faced with that unless we do something really stupid.

Rice, Carlyle, Ballo and Tucker for Gunn, Banks, Sparks and Ware…I’ll take it.

Anybody feel sorry for them? ☹️

What was your first clue?

I’m sure they have a “It’s Time to Fire Scheyer” thread on their forum.

Things are changing at Duke and Kentucky…time for the Hoosiers to step up and reclaim their status as one of the top teams (blue blood) in the country. 💪

Is Carlyle on campus this weekend?

Not a fan of 10 deep

Don’t get me wrong, I’d like to have him, but don’t like our odds. When somebody like Nebraska can almost guarantee him a major role (maybe starting), it will be tough to overcome, but maybe he wants to come back home to Indiana…let’s hope.

Playing time has to be a major concern for somebody like Essegian. If we get Carlyle as expected, we’ll already have 6 guards on the roster - Cupps, Galloway, Leal, Newton, Rice, Carlyle. Not sure I like those odds, if I’m looking for playing time.

We need to run the “picket fence”….the only problem is we don’t have a Jimmy Chitwood!

Dennis Hopper was “Shooter” in Hoosiers.
