Romeo and TJD were statement commits. This is not. But, Leal and Galloway are the best the state has to offer in 2020. One of them will be Mr. Basketball. If Leal commits to IU, that will be 3 Mr. Basketballs in a row. I I'm fairly confident that Lander will make it 4 in a row next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FW_Hoosier Posted July 26, 2019 Report Share Posted July 26, 2019 Solid pickup. Looks like a really smooth athlete and good slasher. Sounds like he’ll come to play on defense as well. Anyone who’s watched him in person know how his jumpshot is? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of those two has to win Mr. Indiana. When was last time we had 3 in a row with a chance for 4? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I'll be happy with Leal, Galloway, and a guy like Cross. But don't kid yourself and say that isn't a very Purdue like class. Maybe that's about what we are now. So be it if true.

While 2020 may not be the best year for in-state talent, the next several have some major talent to be had. By getting on this Mr. Basketball run, IU immediately becomes a player in the Mr. Basketball level kids in the following classes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I had to choose between Morton and Galloway, I'm not upset about IU losing Morton at all. Me either! Galloway will be better and he is from Indiana he knows what it means to wear the jersey!

Mix some 'Purdue' type kids (hard workers that hang around 3-4 years and get better) with the uber talents that the 21 and 22 classes have, and you might just have a championship contender on your hands in a few years. And, speaking of Purdue, let's not overlook the fact that Archie has reached into Purdue country and grabbed Phinisee and now Galloway ....and to a lesser extent Damezi (IU had not had a recruit from Sourth Bend in 40-50 years).

Be interesting to see how high school season plays out now since Galloway wrist is healed and hopefully Leal feeling better. Ivey is very impressive I will agree there!

Rivals rankings are wacky right now. Not sure when they were last updated. Anyway, the 247 composite (all rating sites combined) still has Leal #1 in the state. Ivey is 3rd, behind D'Andre Davis as well. Galloway is ridiculously low in the composite because Rivals totally whiffed on him and is on record as saying they will be moving him way up in their next release. If you look at 247's own rankings, they have Galloway ahead of Ivey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh I def think Galloway will move up. Very surprised he wasn’t in the top 150 when rivals updated their rankings. He’s a solid player for sure. I wish Purdue had another scholarship for him but they only have one left and it’s for a big guy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I usually just go by 247 composite rankings.. regardless of where he ends up in rankings he will be underrated just like Phinisee was. Really really excited about Galloway.
