I was disappointed in their play..like they played their best game of the season against us...hitting everything the threw up...now they look very beatable.

CauseThatsMyDJ Posted January 6, 2019 Report Share Posted January 6, 2019 If we don’t offer this kid, he is going to go to another B1G school and light us up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FKIM01 Posted January 7, 2019 Report Share Posted January 7, 2019 I'd be a little surprised if he doesn't get an offer, assuming he develops as expected. I kind of like being later as long as a recruit doesn't panic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parakeet Jones Posted January 7, 2019 Report Share Posted January 7, 2019 Is he a lights out shooter? What I wouldn’t give for a lights out shooter right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoosierinbham Posted January 7, 2019 Report Share Posted January 7, 2019 How does Leal compare to Kyle Guy? Would love to have a shooter like Guy on our team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StLHoosier Posted January 7, 2019 Report Share Posted January 7, 2019 The kid might be able to shoot, but he’s 6’2”. He’s going to have to handle the ball against athletic D1 kids and be able to guard them. If CAM thinks he can do that, I’m sure he’ll offer.

dgambill Posted January 7, 2019 Report Share Posted January 7, 2019 So this kid is a lock for us...that said we may only have two scholly's for 2020 unless someone leaves early (I hope not because I think we could have a special team in the coming years). I think we seem to be prioritizing Morton. Would we take another guard from that class?? Just wondering because that might be the reason for waiting if we get an early commitment from Morton.

All speculation, but he seems to like IU pretty well...visits regularly, etc. Unless someone heard it from Leal's mouth that he would accept an offer, I'd treat it all as speculation. EDIT: Coach Robbie's post sounds like some strong speculation. I should have clarified that this is all my opinion. He may be closer and know a lot more than most of us.

My apologies gents...I just truly believe he’s ours if we offer, and I think we will. A strong opinion, but not guaranteeing it. Sorry if I misspoke, I can see how my post may have been read. Just confident we’re gonna have the Pickens in Indiana for a while! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cutter Posted January 7, 2019 Report Share Posted January 7, 2019 I am kinda of disappointed we haven't already offered especially after reading what daily hoosier just said the whole family is IU. The kid is obviously got some talent and being from Bloomington goes a long way. Just my opinion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is the one that lives in Bloomington and followed IU for his whole life going to the games and getting autographs....kid is dying to go here and would sign immediately...which is why we probably won't offer until we know he wouldn't take away from a better recruit ....ala Morton.

At some college employee kids can go to school for free but I don't know if IU does that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

See and that is what I was wondering....we may want Love and Morton and not have room for Leal....that would be a tragedy but we only have two scholarships to work with. It happens. I'm ok losing out on Love...but only if we know Landers is a lock. Morton I really really really want. 4 year kid that would elevate everyone's game....hard nosed...kinda kid that killed us playing at Wisky the last 10 years. High basketball IQ...and play multiple positions. If we land him plus lock up the state....wow...Archie is hitting a home run then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cutter Posted January 7, 2019 Report Share Posted January 7, 2019 I say take morton and leal. I read an interview with caleb love and he stated UNC was his dream school. My 2 cents not worth much just an opinion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is exactly kind of player IU needs because we don't seem to have a kid who hates to lose. I want a player like a Fife who will do whatever it takes to win and will get in his teammates face if they don't play hard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My 2 cents not worth much just an opinion PG at UNC....that is the elite of the elite. Given Williams get's his point guards to play 4 years and typically go pro...you have to be very special type to play there....and he may be that kid...but given we only have 1 traditional point guard on the roster...he would have a great opportunity to come here. But it also comes down to do we take Morton and then look for a big?? What I wouldn't give for a decent 7'0....maybe Archie needs to go to Germany or something but we could use one. I hate every elite B1G team having 3 inches on us at center every year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
