Seeking6 Posted October 10, 2019 Report Share Posted October 10, 2019 13 hours ago, 13th&Jackson said: It’s been noted before, but it just seems apparent that Archie is executing a strategy with a clear vision of what he wants the team to be. With Crean and Davis it seemed reactionary too often Seeing how he's putting this team together confirms (to me at least) the first 2 years he was hamstrung by having to keep a few guys he didn't want. I get landing in state 5 star guys but landing a 5 star out of state guy is very, very good for Archie. Hope this happens. Some of the talent/lineups we could have in 2020/21 and 21/22 seasons?? Wow.

IUwins0708 Posted October 14, 2019 Report Share Posted October 14, 2019 I’m as confident with this one as I was with Brooks...🤦♂️. I would’ve lost a ton of money if I had bet where Brooks was going. Think we are in great shape. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well I’d be worried that perhaps all those high recruits with Penny don’t take off and go pro. I mean they have a ton of top recruits including bigs. If he commits and they stay...he is sitting behind some stars. He starts day 1 here for a very very competitive team in 2020. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CrimsonV Posted October 16, 2019 Report Share Posted October 16, 2019 Tentative prediction on Garcia from Corey Evans of Rivals. Get the camera ready @Indykev for that big time visit. It would be nice to deliver a beat down on the closed door scrimmage on Sunday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GrangerHoosier Posted October 16, 2019 Report Share Posted October 16, 2019 I'm officially getting my hopes up. The last few years have been full of recruitments of guys we get in on late, visit us, we get all excited about, then go somewhere else. This just feels like Lester Quinones, etc all over again.

5fouls Posted October 16, 2019 Report Share Posted October 16, 2019 Every class should have at least one player 6"9 or taller. IU's 2020 class does not have that yet. Need this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluegrassIU Posted October 17, 2019 Report Share Posted October 17, 2019 We need to land him or I consider this recruiting cycle a miss. Can not build a winning program on role players and projects alone. We miss om Garcia and it sets us back a year or two. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not that we are definitely getting him but we actually have been following and I think offered Garcia before Lester...and Lester is a 2019 kid while Garcia is 2020. While not the first to offer him we’ve been on this kid for awhile. I mean we offered him about the same time as we did Anthony Leal and Trey. Lester was a spring signing that we got in on very very late on but that was because he had a wide open recruitment late in the game and some of his top choices went to other kids. The fact we got down to a finalist with Lester was amazing effort by the staff. Garcia has been in the works about as long as any of our other recruits...it’s a normal recruitment outside the fact that it’s a big one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We will have Brunk and TJD his freshmen year. it would be a huge miss and require us to get a stud in 2021. Not sure it sets us back though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Archie has this season and next to turn this mess around in my mind. He can't miss on any class at this point. I still say we won't pull out of state kids like Garcia, until we start winning on the court. But maybe we get lucky here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
