Reacher Posted March 5, 2018 Report Share Posted March 5, 2018 Any idea why he is plaing on the IL AAU team this summer? Does that hurt our chances? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
milehiiu Posted March 5, 2018 Author Report Share Posted March 5, 2018 3 hours ago, CoachSS said: Well, the Illinois team is a lot closer to his town of Valparaiso than any other meaningful options that play on the three major circuits. Was a time when Robbie Hummel, Scott Martin ( out of Valpo), along with E'twan Moore played for SYF out of Gary. I realize that is not Illinois. Yet they chose to stay close to home rather than pick one of the better known AAU teams in the other part of Indiana. You don't have to answer this coach. But if memory serves me correctly.... didn't you coach AAU in Illinois for a time ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does anyone remember Coach Betts, he had Jason Gardner on a team and for the life of me I can't remember the team name. I think coach Betts was or is a police officer.

Web page for PU says Gardner's AAU team was No Excuses. OldGoldFreePress.com Purdue Basketball and Football Information, Recruiting, and Forums Does that sound right ?

china423 Posted March 10, 2018 Report Share Posted March 10, 2018 Valpo lost in OT. Brandon Newman got in early foul trouble and fouled out. He had 25 pts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coach Robby Posted March 23, 2018 Report Share Posted March 23, 2018 This kid will be a major stud in college in my opinion...hasn't even come close to hitting his ceiling athletically...although if he jumped in his house, he probably hit the ceiling a few times!

BobSaccamanno Posted March 24, 2018 Report Share Posted March 24, 2018 I think his ranking will soar this summer. He may end up top 50. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh whatever the heck your name is. LOL. It's interesting how Brandon Newman's star has risen, when I started this thread in January.... from a relative unknown... slightly dissed player, with only two minor college offers.... to possibly one of the best players in the nation. Oh, that's what I love about following young undiscovered men.... with BB talent. And as we saw, earlier in this thread. Thanks to China..... Archie has already said....Hello Newman Do you detect a theme here ? . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobSaccamanno Posted March 24, 2018 Report Share Posted March 24, 2018 Yeah, if he does take off, it’s nice that Archie has put the work in beforehand. TJD Brooks Newman Hemenway That may very well be a great 2019 class and perhaps not out of the question. Plus, it’s within Archie’s strategy of inside-out recruiting. Hitting all corners of the state and recruiting out from there. Long way to go, and can’t get ahead of ourselves, but I like Archie’s approach.

That would be a great class and love to get a guy who is a great shooter like Hemenway. He would be an ideal 4th person to a class but not a top player of a class.

Drroogh Posted March 26, 2018 Report Share Posted March 26, 2018 Kinda feel like "Boiler" in this thread, attending Chesterton, Valpo was our biggest antagonist and hard to find anything positive about them! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IMHO, part of what makes Hoosier Sports Nation great, is the convergence of apposing fan bases, coming together in a manner of civil discourse. Two great schools. Chesterton and Valpo. Do some research, on what I consider to have been one of the greatest high school coaches ever, from NWI..... Virgil Sweet of Valpo. And of course, Chesterton has produced several recent great D-1 B1G players. And I bet.... should Newman become a Hoosier, even though from Valpo, you too will be rooting for him.... along with me.

The Daily Hoosier Posted May 22, 2018 Report Share Posted May 22, 2018 Okay guys, IU needs to make the offer here, right? We go through the reasons why this needs to happen. I'm not sure what more the kid needs to do. https://www.thedailyhoosier.com/why-indiana-should-offer-in-state-class-of-2019-brandon-newman/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DocHoosier Posted May 22, 2018 Report Share Posted May 22, 2018 ^^thanks for this! Been searching for any info on this guy which has been hard to find. Good looking 3-4 year player who Indiana needs to mix in Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobSaccamanno Posted May 22, 2018 Report Share Posted May 22, 2018 Great article. I couldn’t possibly agree more. It feels like a no-brainer to me. Out of a roster of 13 scholarships, there’s got to be room for him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seeking6 Posted May 22, 2018 Report Share Posted May 22, 2018 2-3 scholarships available depending on what Romeo does has us a little tied. 2019 class has some tough choices on where you show your love. I know he's gaining interest but it's not like his offer list isn't something we can't overcome in a couple of months. We grabbed Damezi from same AAU program. I'm sure an offer will happen but I don't see the benefit of rushing yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just don't want to come in last minute after Purdue, OSU, probably Northwestern, Illinois, Michigan and others. I'd feel different if I felt good about our other guard offers, but I don't.
