Hoosierdave Posted August 22, 2019 Report Share Posted August 22, 2019 Take it FWIW but that's Khristian Lander's father I believe. Maybe Love coming to IU wouldn't eliminate us from getting him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Love probably wants to be OAD anyways but nothing wrong with IU turning into PG U! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dgambill Posted September 3, 2019 Report Share Posted September 3, 2019 Hey guys...I still have an OV coming up! Show me the “Love”! He wanted to see us add some pieces around him...we’ve put together some nice wings. Have we done enough? He could still come in and be the man.

I think a lot of it comes from that we as fans don't think we have a very good chance of Landing him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IU4Ever Posted September 3, 2019 Report Share Posted September 3, 2019 I just don't see it happening. I think his expectations (OAD to the NBA - purely my own opinion) aren't going to mesh because I don't see a freshman Caleb Love unseating a junior Rob Phinisee for the PG position.

He would play the 2 spot and be a huge upgrade and there would probably be 10 mins a game at the 1 because we have no back up. We can play with two point guards easily.

Do we even have a visit scheduled for Garcia? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Love is still probably more of a long shot but his visit could be telling in his IU interest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IU Scott Posted September 4, 2019 Report Share Posted September 4, 2019 16 minutes ago, CoachSS said: He had better offers and has been prioritized more elsewhere. Indiana couldn't give him the time he craved because Indiana had better things/ more prudent things to take care of. That's all. And he (or his folks) haven't hinted Indiana has a great chance. That's all. He'll do great elsewhere. Phenomenal talent. I am wondering why he is coming on a visit if he is not interested in IU. It is not like Bloomington Indiana is a destination spot if you are just taking a visit for a trip. You go to UCLA or Florida if you are just using a visit as a vacation.

addictedtoIU Posted September 4, 2019 Report Share Posted September 4, 2019 I thought for a while this recruitment had UNC written all over. It was pretty obvious he was ecstatic (in his twitter) when he got UNC offer; I thought it was the kind of offer he'd been waiting for. For other offers, his expressions were pretty normal.

Seeking6 Posted September 12, 2019 Report Share Posted September 12, 2019 I'm just surprised he waited until the final hour to announce. Between attention spent on Garcia, Kauffman, Lander and a few others this week.....I think it's been pretty well implied from Love's camp that he's focused on only a couple of schools and IU wasn't planning on wasting additional resources/time in recruiting him. Makes sense on both sides. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FKIM01 Posted September 12, 2019 Report Share Posted September 12, 2019 I'll be honest...wasn't crazy about the tone of this recruitment almost from day one...viewed it very much as a long shot. Kind of the antithesis of the Geronimo recruitment and way different than the tone of the Lander recruitment as well. IU may not get Lander either but I feel a lot better about the tone and fit there than I ever did about Love. I suspect Love got his feelings hurt when the staff prioritized others this week and that pushed him past an edge he was already leaning hard over before the announcement.

I prefer kids who intend to come in and make IU winners, personally. Kids with the vision to make a difference. Kids who intend to come in inheriting a championship roster? Meh.
