Seeking6 Posted October 26, 2017 Report Share Posted October 26, 2017 Unless your name is Cal or K first year coaches aren't supposed to be doing this. But maybe they are? Unreal job of recruiting by Archie and Staff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember listening to a podcast with Goodman right after the higher and he thought that Archie would be a decent recruiter and would occasionally land a local low ranked 5 star kid but the kids that Duke and Kentucky wanted were off the table. Fun times boys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Duke and Kentucky will most likely end up with 3-5 five star recruits each so I don't expect a #1 ranking even with both but 2-3 ranking seems in line unless something crazy happens with the two aforementioned schools and kids go elsewhere.

I see 247 updates their rankings. My boy Zion is on top...anyway. Unfortunately 1 is out of the question. Duke will have 2, 3, 12 plus whatever else. Unfortunately Garland dropped to 15 also. edit: scratch that. Those numbers are ‘wrong’ but the point stands. I somehow stumbled on the 247 site rank and not the composite rankings.

CauseThatsMyDJ Posted October 26, 2017 Report Share Posted October 26, 2017 I'm just saying, an article was posted yesterday from Jerry Meyer stating that IU would have the #1 class by a wide margin. Now, could that change after subsequent commitments? Sure, but that's all conjecture. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Duke will have the 1, 3, and 6 player. They are 100% going to be first this year. We're getting close to that level now but I think it will be a decent while before we can catch duke or uk because they land 'anyone' they want in 20 plus states not just the surrounding two or three. I think it's just a matter of time though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brass Cannon Posted October 26, 2017 Report Share Posted October 26, 2017 I don't care about the top recruiting class I care about consecutive top 5 maybe 10 if it's a small class. Thats how you compete every year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoosier987 Posted October 26, 2017 Report Share Posted October 26, 2017 We would have the # 1 class. 2 top 10 players/ 5 top 100 players. However - regardless of ranking - This would be a monster class Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ADegenerate Posted October 26, 2017 Report Share Posted October 26, 2017 I stand corrected. I apologize. That's a terrible algorithm tho 1, 3, 6 < 5, 10, 63, 85, 134 ? Absolutely monster class like you said though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IU Scott Posted October 26, 2017 Report Share Posted October 26, 2017 UK and Duke can have there #1 rankings with all one and done players. What I like about this class if Garland and Langford commits is it is balanced. It probably has one or maybe two one and done players but others that will be around for 4 years to be the building blocks for the future. I have said many times I don't want a roster full of one and dones but don't mind one or two here and there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we land Romeo and Darius, Archie really has set up 2018 as the "ideal" class, just as you said. Darius comes in as the one and done PG, then we have Phinisee waiting in the wrings to take over.

Absolutely monster class like you said though. I understand what you're saying - I'm not sure how many commits Duke will have - but for example, let's say they have 4. If we have 6 commits to their 4, in terms of the point system, I believe we would have a higher ranking class because we have 2 more commits Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not attacking you here but it just doesn't make sense to me. They win...they win big. What's not to like about that? The four year player system is archaic. The brilliance of stacking up loads of one and done's is that not all of them go pro and you have an insanely talented roster that eventually wins a title when two of them stay and you bring in one or two one and dones with them. Agree? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoosierhoopster Posted October 26, 2017 Report Share Posted October 26, 2017 20 hours ago, KDB said: Yep, very true. Hopefully that prediction is one of those "close to an announcement" predictions. Exactly - Meyer often changes his pick shortly in advance of an announcement based on late information. His track record -- which is good -- is because of those late changes. Signs look good now, hope this is an end-game type prediction based on late info. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree? You don't need a whole roster of one and done players to win big. Since the one and done rule went into affect only 3 teams won a championship with a one and done player on their roster. Let me guess that you are in the younger generation of fan and probably won't understand what I am going to say. To me what I have loved about college basketball all these years is watching players come in and see them develop over the 4 years. I like seeing a team develop over a few years and go through some up and downs then one year everything comes together and you make a run at the championship.

KDB Posted October 26, 2017 Report Share Posted October 26, 2017 Romeo got interviewed about his visits, definitely sounds like he enjoyed the IU visit A LOT, and more than the others. VIP article or else I would've linked it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
