IU Scott Posted July 29, 2019 Report Share Posted July 29, 2019 10 hours ago, Stlboiler23 said: It sucks if you’re a fan of Indiana high school basketball but I don’t blame the kid. To go play against much tougher competition and live away from home for a year, travel to games, and it basically be your first year of college essentially. I get it but sucks for high school b-ball fans. I hate these Indiana kids going to these basketball factories and think it is strange to do so after already committing to a school. Most times you go to these schools to get more exposure for recruiting so if I were Purdue I would be a little worried that maybe he wants more exposure for the big time programs to see him.

All it takes is one big game for Ivey to go off with a scout from Duke, Kentucky, Kansas, UNC there watching another high prized recruit and next thing you know an offer comes along. Black and Gold Illustrated would be comedic gold for months if that happened. They haven't even mentioned it yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If anything, I would be worried about Ivey keeping his Purdue commitment by going to La Lumiere. All it takes is one big game for Ivey to go off with a scout from Duke, Kentucky, Kansas, UNC there watching another high prized recruit and next thing you know an offer comes along. I was very uneasy when Keion Brooks elected to play for La Lumiere last year. Wouldn’t those same schools have been able to stumble onto him during any of the AAU tournaments? Anything could change of course but I feel confident that he’ll be a boiler next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very well could be, I just know a lot of the decision making behind going to a prep star like La Lumiere is gain notoriety and exposure. Trading away the opportunity to be Mr. Basketball, an Indiana All-Star, as well as giving up your social life as a high school senior is a pretty powerful move. He very well could still end up at Purdue and in fact wouldn't bet against it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't know much about Simpson. But I believe Ivey is in a different situation than either. Davis committed young and was a top prospect in his class an underclassmen who really fell by the wayside as kids starting maturing and catching up to him. Ivey for the most part has been flying under the radar up until this summer. He's trending up where Davis was trending down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FKIM01 Posted July 29, 2019 Report Share Posted July 29, 2019 I doubt Ivey going to LaLu changes his commitment. Brooks wasn't committed when he went. ...but I'll admit that I'd laugh at the smug Toiletmakers on GBI if he flipped. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably not but like Galloway, Ivey was very under the radar going into this summer and both had very good showing on their respective AAU circuits.

I mean he didn't receive his IU offer until after the 2nd or 3rd AAU tournament. Ohio State eventually offered as well and schools like Kansas and North Carolina started to gauge some small interest.

UK might have offered him but it did not seem like you heard theIR name as much in his recruiting until late in his senior season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
