Not sure 2020 is the class I want four kids in. A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush. In other words. Should one have a breakout season, and move on to the next level. Or worse, decide to transfer. Take what you can get now. And let the future play out as it may. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure 2020 is the class I want four kids in. I think your crazy if you don’t take Leal, Galloway, and Cross plus another top 100 kid. Sign em up! 2021 will take care of its self plus you don’t know who could transfer or go pro early. We just have to keep building solid class after solid class Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BobSaccamanno Posted July 16, 2019 Report Share Posted July 16, 2019 From what I've read, he's a really good student. There may be a natural draw to Stanford, depending on what he wants to do. The U.S. has an incredible combination of technological innovation, and the ability to finance entrepreneurship. Stanford is in the middle of all of that synergy, at every end. The contacts he could make are extraordinary. As for location, Bloomington and Palo Alto are near the top of the USA. But one is much farther from home. I wonder if there is a natural pull for Stanford that he's wrestling with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
5fouls Posted July 16, 2019 Report Share Posted July 16, 2019 I think we are reading WAY too much in the fact that Leal and Galloway have not committed. The fact is, it is very rare for a recruit to commit during the summer. They almost always do a couple of visits in the fall, and decide right before their high school season starts, or during the fall signing period. If I was Leal, I would definitely want to have the opportunity to check out the Stanford coeds even if I was 100% sure I was going to IU. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All dogs aren’t collies so hard to say the reasoning behind it all but on the surface it looks like maybe we lost some momentum Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Archie's first 3-4 commits were during a two week run in June/early July. I feel better with Galloway. Leal has had his hometown chance.

dgambill Posted July 17, 2019 Report Share Posted July 17, 2019 I think Cross is becoming a long shot. I’m fine with just Leal and Galloway and hopefully a center. Then use the other on a grad transfer back up point guard. Davis graduates after this year and Brunk after next. I’d hate to go into 2021 with no veteran bigs and I’d hate to go into 2020 without a back up point guard for Rob. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Love ya. And you know that. However when a coach makes offers to kids sight unseen. And then to a kid in Florida (always forget the name) that never amounted to anything... and as much as I had Crean's back early on. Upon reflection. I wonder what he knew what he was doing.

If they do that UCLA will lose Alford and any good coach that may go there after they fire Alford. Well california needs money for all their give aways..

Wasn't David Williams Roshown McCleod's first project or something? What a waste of money he was. I mean the former assistant coach, not the kid.

Hoosierinbham Posted July 18, 2019 Report Share Posted July 18, 2019 Colby Jones of Mountain Brook just got an offer from Stanford. 6'5" shooting guard that is a 4 star on 247. Relevant because he's the same position as Leal. Great student, and his game is really improving to match his athleticism and intelligence. Recruits have options, as do schools. Hope we get Anthony, and selfishly would love to see Colby go to Bama or Auburn to watch him play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually worked against Coach in a horrible home visit to one of what could have been (at the time) one of IU's biggest recruits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
