Am I right in thinking Jerry would have been a freshman on the '76 team? If so, we sure could have used him in '77 and '78. And that would have made us scary good in '79. I loved Sichting's game.

IU Scott Posted May 10, 2018 Report Share Posted May 10, 2018 2 hours ago, Seeking6 said: To me I didn't care about Montross so much because during that time I had so much confidence in Knight it didn't matter who we rolled out there (considering what 89 team did, fresh off title,etc... Oden is (because Conley and his Dad were tied to his hip) the one I wanted. IU needed him so badly to boost our morale regardless of the 02 run. Couple others during Crean era but Oden is the one for me. If Montross was on those 92 and 93 I would be shocked if we did not win another title. In 93 we lacked size especially after Henderson got hurt and we lsot to KU in the elite 8 because of our lack of size. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IU Scott Posted May 10, 2018 Report Share Posted May 10, 2018 2 hours ago, rico said: Not sure of the year......but anyway my former boss had a kid that was an Indiana All-star. So I saw him play all the time. But one day at work the boss told me I needed to go to his kid's game that night. I told him I had seen his kid play enough. He told me it wasn't to watch his kid but I needed to check out a kid on the other team. Connersville was on the docket that night. I watched in amazement what this 6-7 kid was doing. My boss asked me what I thought. I said I hope he comes to IU. That kid was Matt Howard. Would loved to had seen him put on the candy stripes. The only time I saw Howard in HS was during the summer after his senior year at the Hoosier Gym. Every year they have a Hoosier All star game there and that was the year with Gordon and all the guys going to Purdue. I was impressed with Howard and Jeff Teague and wished IU was recruiting them.

I saw Matt play against Pendleton Heights. The Arabians had a 6-8 kid that went to Southern Illinois. Howard schooled Nick Rogers. Good thing Pendleton had Vaughn Duggins(my boss's son) and that Connersville was a 1-man show. BTW......Vaughn committed to UNC-Wilmington but followed Brad Brownell to Wright St(Clemson now). Yeah Matt was a "Hoosier". Bobby would have got him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seeking6 Posted May 10, 2018 Report Share Posted May 10, 2018 Regarding Matt Howard. I think one of the first calls Sampson made when hired was to him (besides Gordon). Was a really good one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Btw, Vaughn's Dad(my boss and friend) was/is an IU fan. Duggins ended up with over 1700 points at Wright State. Howard scored close to 2,000 at Butler. The ironic part about it is those two are were buds. Howard committed to Butler and the Dawgs offered Duggins a scholly, but fo somer reason withdrew it. Vaughn is playing over seas as is Howard the last time I checked. Think Sampson missed out on a couple? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harangody is especially perplexing to me. In the fact that nearly his entire family went to IU. Brothers, Mother, Father, Uncles. With a legacy like that, there should never have been a reason he did not don the Candy Stripes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As I have not followed the May family as I have the Harangody's, since the Harangody's are from "The Region". Lived in Scherrillville and attended Andrean High School. Not sure of how many Aunts and Uncles not named Harangody attended IU. But did read an article once, that said that Luke was the only member of the extended family not to go to IU. Immediate family members, named Harangody : Dad. David. Played football at IU Mom. Margaret. Or Peg as her friends call her. Attended IU Brother. Ty.

Sometimes all you can do is shake your head and as "Why?" I know why. Upon getting a late scholarship offer to IU, the Harangody's traveled to Bloomington to have a face to face with Coach Davis. When asked why Luke was offered so late, Coach Davis said he was too busy fending off rumors that he (Davis) was getting fired. That is what caused Luke to choose an instate school. Closer to home.
