milehiiu Posted July 28, 2020 Report Share Posted July 28, 2020 Trey and Roy talked today. I am not worried. I remember, when Roy made a last minute trip to Washington, Indiana. Attempting to snag Cody Zeller away from IU. It did not work then. And I highly doubt a late offer for Trey will work either. Too much distance.

And, it's worth noting that the game the assistant came to happened to coincide with UNC's visit to Louisville to play the Cards, watching a Friday night SC game in advance of a Saturday afternoon UNC/UL game. Seems odd that Roy couldn't find a couple of hours on Friday night to do the same. On the same subject, I don't know that Cal has ever watched Trey play either.

dgambill Posted July 28, 2020 Report Share Posted July 28, 2020 Trey knows that he is a priority for us and will have a huge role cut out for him here. I understand why kids like UNC. They okay an up tempo type of ball and typically play with other highly touted recruits that make it easier on them. It’s an attractive place to play and a track record of putting players in the NBA...but if the kid wants the opportunity to be a leader and the focal point of an offense...put on the candy stripes.

PritchardPutBack Posted July 29, 2020 Report Share Posted July 29, 2020 With all of the UNC talk because of their offer, I got a fun fact that I learned about them today. With all of the high ranked recruits and future first round draft picks they get year after year you think they'd have a bunch of recent NBA all-stars, right? Well, the most recent player they've had that went on to be an NBA All-Star.....Vince Carter who's last year with UNC was 1998. I know IU basically has Oladipo and after that you'd have to go even further back (so a bit of stones and glass houses), but pretty interesting to see since I feel like a lot of people would put UNC up there with a Duke or Kentucky in churning out future great NBA players year after year.

No offense, but I couldn’t disagree more. Roy has coached 15 seasons at UNC. In those 15 seasons, he has had 13 players drafted in the lottery and another 12 drafted after. Heck, I think Duke’s only had 2 AS guys in the last 15 years (Kyrie & Tatum..maybe BI?) Most of these high profile kids are focused on getting to the league and I think he’s been 1 of the 3 best at doing it the last decade or so. Hardly any rookie is ever an All-Star and the critical development needed to get to that level typically occurs in the league. Can’t blame ole’ Roy for that. buuut..tides change quickly. We’re on the right track to one day not having all of us fans panic at seeing our top target get a UNC or Duke offer lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
5fouls Posted July 29, 2020 Report Share Posted July 29, 2020 I would be surprised if UNC is a real contender here. In my opinion, Virginia is the non-local school to worry about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Daily Hoosier Posted July 29, 2020 Report Share Posted July 29, 2020 If there are no recruiting visits all the way through next April as many are starting to believe then it would be hard for a guy like Trey to pick a school he has never seen. I actually feel bad for players like that. He has good options but guys aren't really getting to see the full fruits of all of their hard work and take in a once in a lifetime opportunity. We'll probably see more transfers than ever coming from this 21 class. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

5fouls Posted July 29, 2020 Report Share Posted July 29, 2020 From the story about the UNC offer on UNC's Rivals Page. Something seems to be missing. North Carolina has offered 2021 power forward A 4-star prospect who attends Silver Creek High School in Sellersburg, IN, Kaufman is 6-foot-8 and weighs 210 pounds. He’s rated the No. 39 overall prospect in the nation and the No. 11 player at his position. He shot up from No. 83 in the most recent Rivals rankings. Among Kaufman’s offers are from Virginia, Louisville, Purdue, Cincinnati and Xavier. https://northcarolina.rivals.com/news/unc-offers-2021-pf-trey-kaufman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UNC funneled athletes through paper classes for JUST 18 years, to keep them eligible. So what's the problem with that ? After all, it was for JUST 18 years. I will take academic fraud for $1,000. Alex. UNC athletics report finds 18 years of academic fraud - CNN And I don't care if the NCAA could not hang UNC for it. The fact is. It happened. For EIGHTEEN years !

He probably stopped recruiting kids if he knew that certain schools like UK was recruiting a player because he knew it was not a clean recruitment.

IUCrazy2 Posted July 29, 2020 Report Share Posted July 29, 2020 I am becoming less worried about those other schools. Miller has already been recruiting well, he starts putting some W's together the next few years, then we should be a force, particularly with kids in our own backyard.

In fact... and I have told this story before... Colonial Crestor's first post on Decker's Hoosier Nation.... got him banned by Decker's friend... The Fourth Estate. TFE, just did not understand CC's humor. Over the years. Some have maintained their user name. Others have changed. But many continue to remain faithful to HSN. Which I am grateful for.
