Parakeet Jones Posted April 19, 2018 Report Share Posted April 19, 2018 Fran is one of those coaches I hope never gets fired. I like making fun of him too much. Between the Francon chart and seeing the Franimal come out. I just couldn’t stand to see him go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fran just has to make it another year. He already has his oldest son on the team. He battled sickness and injury last year. But when he was playing point they played alot better. They have alot of young long talent on the team. I just don't know if Fran is a good enough coach to get them to where they could be. We will see. And as usual, i will be at the Iowa/Indiana game. Its always a fun one to go to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoosierdave Posted April 22, 2018 Report Share Posted April 22, 2018 Saw on the rivals board someone saying "rumor coming out of Dallas AAU" is a potential commit from Carton. Wondering if anyone is hearing anything... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yea, apparently people saying his interest in IU is really growing. Saw he got an offer from USC recently so I doubt the rumor is even true though.

milehiiu Posted April 22, 2018 Report Share Posted April 22, 2018 DJ hosted IU in an in home last weekend, along with Iowa State. And despite the increasing interest in his game.... it is entirely possible that Archie had a big impression on him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also Archie offering the other two guards could of poked him a little to commit if he is interested because he realizes Archie will fill that spot one way or another Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KDB Posted April 27, 2018 Author Report Share Posted April 27, 2018 Peegs said that Carton wants to take more spring visits and that he could commit in early summer. He said he thought the 4 schools in the best position with Carton were: (In no specific order) IU OSU Michigan Marquette Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dwtaylor1055 Posted April 27, 2018 Report Share Posted April 27, 2018 Man, adding Carton with TJD and one of the three out of Hurt/Watford/Brooks would be so so huge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seeking6 Posted April 30, 2018 Report Share Posted April 30, 2018 Thought I would add this to the board since today will be a high traffic day. DJ Carton retweeted Victor's text to trainer yesterday about getting to work 10 minutes after Pacers game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seeking6 Posted May 1, 2018 Report Share Posted May 1, 2018 Sounds like end of summer decision for DJ. IU, Michigan, Iowa seem to be the main players here with Iowa St and Ohio St there as well. Kid has vaulted up rankings. I still think Iowa for this one. Family connection, 1 hour max from home, and Iowa has guaranteed no competition immediate playing time available. With that said...if the kid is good a little competition shouldn't make him shy away from an obviously much bigger stage like IU. One thing I do know. None of his visits so far had the same impact as being at IU for the Purdue/IU game this year. Not even close. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KDB Posted May 1, 2018 Author Report Share Posted May 1, 2018 Eric Bossi on Carton, "it seems Michigan and Ohio State could be slightly ahead of the pack with Indiana, Iowa, Marquette and Wisconsin likely right in the mix." https://basketballrecruiting.rivals.com/news/twitter-tuesday-romeo-langford-d-j-carton-tre-mann Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KDB Posted May 9, 2018 Author Report Share Posted May 9, 2018 Brian Snow said in his weekly Indiana Hoops Report that Carton is planning to narrow his list down in the very near future to 5 or 6 and he would be very surprised if Indiana didn't make the cut. Snow also said that the intel behind the scenes says Michigan, OSU, and Indiana are bunched pretty closely at the top, but in that order. He also says that there is a lot of work to be done for all involved in order to get Carton's commitment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dwtaylor1055 Posted May 9, 2018 Report Share Posted May 9, 2018 I think as long as IU is in his final choices leading up to his announcement and we have a commitment say from TJD and/or Watford/Brooks before then, I would have to imagine that will weigh on him knowing that he can play with 2 very talented recruits not including if Romeo stays a second year plus the current incoming class.

ADegenerate Posted May 9, 2018 Report Share Posted May 9, 2018 I don’t see us landing him. My logic with this one is Green plays well enough to lock up the starting job for two seasons and RP plays well enough to put pressure on DG. That’s not even considering the freeroll with Aljami.

This is a great point because I still believe we need a guard in the 2019 class, but I honestly believe Green is gonna be a stud next year and really polish game and then RP will push him to even get better. Carton would be a great pick up though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carton would be a great pick up though Beilein is an absolute stud too. I’ve always been a huge fan of his dating back to his 1-3-1 days at WV with Gansy and Pittsnoggle. I’d love to see him start pulling in good enough talent that can actually win him a title because he deserves one. Give him Izzos rosters and I reckon he’s have 2 by now (granted that discards system fits etc but I’m talking in a talent POV). I’d hate to DJ at OSU though 😕 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
