Kaufman became an elite prospect later than Lander, so he was historically not getting the same AAU opportunities as Lander. When Kaufman finally broke out last year, Lander was playing a class ahead (with Leal and Galloway). Until this summer's upcoming AAU season, there was no legitimate chance for them to play together. Sounds like a rival fan just wanting to start something. I thought it was Furst and Kaufman who don't want to play together. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NotIThatLives Posted February 26, 2020 Report Share Posted February 26, 2020 Not to go against the grain of any Intel but Kaufmans mom just posted an article about Trey getting looks from Kentucky. Imo i would be shocked if he went that way. Would love for it to end sooner than later. I don't ask her anything out of respect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I think it benefits both parties. I agree 100%. I haven't read all through the posts since last night and I haven't read anything written by a recruiting insider, but when I saw the text from my buddy this morning with the news this was the first thought I had.

IUwins0708 Posted February 26, 2020 Report Share Posted February 26, 2020 On Brooks, he didn’t want to go to UK, wanted to change his mind after verbally committing to UK, now wants out of UK. Only one thing got/and continues to get in his way. I’ll let you guys decide on what that is...😉 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's lack of trust and that's the issue for most I think...especially me. Anyway point of this thread is Lander. Can't tell you how important this Burger Boy commit is to IU/Archie,etc.....gives "total control" perception. Not going anywhere and now the team has turned it's own corner. Will cheer like crazy for the rest of the season but the future is very, very bright. For those who hammer the anti Archie stuff I'd suggest going back into the hole for a couple years. He isn't going anywhere. I don't think people were anti-Archie per se, the program just appeared to be teetering on the edge a few weeks ago. He seems to mostly have gotten that under control. As someone who was feeling bad about Miller a few weeks ago, making the tournament and landing future classes full of talent are the types of things I was looking for this year. If that occurs, I am comfortably back on the bandwagon. I did not want Archie to go, I want whoever occupies that seat to be wildly successful. He has struggled to get his feet under him, there are signs he may have finally started to do that. That makes me happy. We all want the team to be successful. Welcome aboard to Lander, now we can have him start actively recruiting his class along with his AAU teammates we have committed as well. Go get Kauffman and then look for one or two more big fish in that 21 class. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It looks bad from the outside, to recruits, another mar on the face of our fanbase. The way the initial poster (Flynn, I think) put it, it sure sounded spiteful. Also, on what basis, other than their initial choice, are you developing trust issues with a nineteen year old I’m pretty sure you don’t even know? On the topic of Lander: heck yes! Couldn’t be more excited! Archie is doing work. And, the fact Lander is readily dangling 2020 as an option tells me he really aims to do it, just probably needs to see how the academic year finishes up. It wasnt meant to be out of spite. If you remember from his recruitment his priorities were the league and money. Just want IU first guys, future goals will come in time. I dont care if one and done or here for 4 yrs. To me its IU first the rest later. After all they are committing to playing for and representing a university. Now, if his experience at UK taught him some humility and his attitude changed then I will have a different opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
