The next sentence literally says, " Obviously this happens almost everywhere in the country, but it is something worth noting if true." If it were an issue, all of the schools on his final list would be dropped. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Welcome! You won't find a better IU hoops board. Have a few posters who are as dialed in as they come. Saved months of worrying with TJD and Romeo recruitments....and by all account KB Jr as well.

Seems to me that is synonymous with baseless chat board conjecture. Hopefully they realize every school has a few idiot fans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
btownqb Posted January 29, 2019 Report Share Posted January 29, 2019 If that's all it takes for him to be bothered he wouldn't have transferred to LaLu and he probably just would not play basketball in general. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IU Scott Posted January 29, 2019 Report Share Posted January 29, 2019 I guess this is the best place to put this little nugget. Over on the rivals board there is a guy who user name is Hoosierjumbo89 or something like that who goes to PU and UK boards to troll. Now someone from one of those fan bases have opened up a new account that looks just like the Hoosierjumbo89 but put a period on the end of it. That guy who did this is now going to the UK and PU boards acting like an IU fan and going there and bad mouthing IU and saying how jealous IU fans are of their programs. The worst thing this troll is doing is tweeting Keion telling him to stay away from IU and go to UK because IU will just ruin his career. To me for someone to take as much time and effort to start an account just to troll other fans bases and tweet recruits must not have a life. to me it is said that a person doesn't have anything better in their life and think this is funny thing to do. I know social media can be fun and very helpful but most just use it to make a full of themselves and others. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
68Hoosier Posted January 30, 2019 Report Share Posted January 30, 2019 No news or post in the last 18 hours. What is going on with this recruitment. I need some good news for IU basketball. The season is starting to tank and I just want something to be excited about. My guy in Bloomington has not given me anything for about 3 weeks now and its killing me.

Hoosierinbham Posted January 30, 2019 Report Share Posted January 30, 2019 Maybe they're waiting to announce commitment until we win our next game and break the streak. That really would improve optimism and confidence. Just hope that win comes tonight! Things can turn around quickly during a season. Just look at Kentucky after Quade left.

I don't understand how programs like Louisville can get a 1st year coach and be right back in the top 25 and we struggle for years after Knight. Don't mean to stay off topic but Mack maybe a better coach Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vincent14 Posted January 30, 2019 Report Share Posted January 30, 2019 I've said this before but the majority of recruits don't care if a team is playing poorly, in fact most see it as a positive because they will get more playing time right away. I'm not worried about our current play affecting Keion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because there is no question, at least in terms of recruiting rankings, that Mack took over a more talented team than Archie did. I'm not all about the rankings, but Williams and King were borderline 5* guys, and Nwora, Perry and Enoch were top 100 guys, then they supplemented with transfers in Cunningham (Samford's all-time assist leader and top 15 in points scored) and Sutton (who averaged over 12ppg at UNC Ashville). Compare that to a team that started Freddie McSwain, Zach McRoberts and Josh Newkirk. Sorry for adding to the derailment. I love Keion and hope he picks IU 😀 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
