Then I read this? hmmmmm Given what Archie and staff have done on the recruiting front so during on 1 full recruiting class (now working on 2nd) I won't be surprised.

What Archie did with Romeo and Keion (even if Keion doesn't commit) is nothing short of a miracle. Lester could very well come in and start day 1 as SG.

Maybe it changes nothing, but I wouldn't allow my son to be taught and molded as a man in the image of a guy who's being subpoenaed by the FBI, innocent or guilty.

I just posted this in the Watford thread. If I'm a recruit or parent there is no way I'd go near a program that is under investigation. Hopefully it will get both to consider IU a little more if anything. Go Hoosiers!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, color me mystified that kids continue to show interest in and commit to both Arizona and LSU. I think both likely end up in significant trouble and I suspect there are plenty more to come out before the dust settles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good to see. I’d say Archie is the master recruiter. His first year at Arizona they had a top 10 recruiting class that allowed Arizona to make the elite 8. A couple years of great recruiting got Sean off the ground and Archie was credited as being the main recruiter. Also for strategizing for his brother. Once Archie left Sean did well for a couple more years but he has really leveled off for certain. I just hope Archie doesn’t take the short cuts Sean does....but maybe Sean did it because he couldn’t get the same level of players as when he had Archie and he wanted to win again.

If that was the case, wouldn’t he have been able to get better talent at Dayton? Of course you won’t be getting the highest level kids at a school like that, but he only signed one recruit that was higher than a three star while he was there. Can’t argue with what he’s accomplished on the recruiting trail since he got to IU though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plenty said that all Archie needed over time was a bigger stage/platform. During Archie's time at Dayton he was what? 4th best choice for in state guys behind (Ohio St, Xavier, Cincy)....let alone if there was higher talent that other regional schools would come after. I wouldn't put much into rankings while Archie was at Dayton. Not a direct analogy but close enough. Look at Saban when he was at Sparty. He was never going to get the elite because of Michigan, Ohio St and others who would take what they want. All Saban needed was a bigger stage. LSU and ultimately Bama was that stage. Hopefully our stage and our administration gets out of the way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was on some good kids last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it's just a matter of WHEN Will Wade gets some pretty serious sanctions. He's literally caught red-handed discussing paying for a player. I'm surprised it hasn't already damaged his recruiting, but I fully expect it will eventually. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My wife, bless her heart, doesn't seem to care so I have that going for me. I will probably physically become ill if Trendon Watford attends LSU.
