He was. He was coming out of the gates looking really good. Regardless how good, he would've made us better, and more versatile, offensively. He's missed a season, we don't know how well he'll come back, but this isn't an MCL or similar type injury in any way, it's an underlying health issue. If he is healthy again, and stays so, imo, there's every reason to expect him to at least contribute on a high level next season. He is a very talented all around player and a shooter, he was right there to being a major factor / player. He has the full summer and is putting in the work. I am looking forward to seeing him come back strong, I'm a believer in what he's capable of. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BobSaccamanno Posted May 29, 2019 Report Share Posted May 29, 2019 I think we've been very correct as members of this board to be highly cautious on whether Hunter will be able to play. Best wishes to the young man that all his dreams come true. It's gotta be tough and we know he's persevering. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tdhoosier Posted May 30, 2019 Report Share Posted May 30, 2019 In their interviews on Hoosier Hysterics Juwan and Zach seemed pretty certain he’ll be ready. I believe Juwan said something pretty absolute like ‘no doubt’ when asked if he’ll be back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BGleas Posted May 30, 2019 Report Share Posted May 30, 2019 I really hope Hunter can come back healthy, for his sake first and foremost. It was be terrible to go through this. On the fan/basketball side, I can’t believe there hasn’t been a wing grad transfer out there wanting to take available minutes and be Hunter insurance. Yes, I know about the recent news that grad transfers are hard at IU, but it didn’t seem to stop Gordon, Zeisloft, Beilfeldt or Fitzner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In looking at our scholarship situation, damn it would be nice to find a grad transfer and a standard transfer with 2 years left. That would still leave us with 3 for 2020, and the classes would remain balanced. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am pretty sure after watching one of the episodes of Assembly call that the thing about grad transfers being hard to get into IU is not that accurate.

Yeah, I don’t see how it is. I might have the years off, but I think IU has brought in a grad transfer in 4 of the last 6 offseasons. I will say, after reading Archie’s full comments on Hunter last night, they don’t seem remotely as bad or worrisome as that one tweet made it seem.

To me if they thought that he wouldn't be able to play next year you would have seen them be way more aggressive bring in someone else at that position.

When I actually listened to Archie it was nowhere near this. Pretty poor work indeed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IUwins0708 Posted May 30, 2019 Report Share Posted May 30, 2019 He’s on schedule to return. Actually he’s way ahead of schedule. Still a chance the doctors don’t clear him but he’s heading in the right direction. No reason to believe he won’t play at this point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would assume the coaches have been told that so that is why we did not see them go out and get another wing player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know how or where you have gotten your IU "intel", over the years. Nor do I care. Just want to say, whenever you do share with us. It is always appreciated. Don't ever leave us !

You must know more than Archie cause I sure did not hear him say anything of the sort unless he was totally misquoted. 2 hours ago, Muddy River said: So, I watched the presser, and I did not hear the words "whether he will be available this season".

It all depend on is there was really anyone left at that position we had a shot with who could play right away. We did not after several guards this spring and lost out. We are not really going to know anything until August either way imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
