5fouls Posted September 8, 2020 Report Share Posted September 8, 2020 Courier Journal article with a blurb why each school is on the list. https://www.courier-journal.com/story/sports/preps/indiana/2020/09/08/silver-creeks-trey-kaufman-announces-his-top-5-schools/5739443002/ On the ISU piece, interesting reference to current teammate Kooper Jacobi, who as far as I know is still uncommitted.

milehiiu Posted September 8, 2020 Report Share Posted September 8, 2020 If one of Trey's stated goals is to pick a school that can help him to make it to the NBA, he needs to check this out : Indiana basketball: 8 Hoosiers in NBA will make $68 million this year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steubenhoosier Posted September 8, 2020 Report Share Posted September 8, 2020 If UVA is supposed to be the most beautiful campus in America ( something I am highly skeptical of,btw) ISU has to be about 1,000,000 LOL. I really think the first 3 are the players. I hope CAM can land him, but Tony Bennett is a great coach and an even better man. He also comes across as a cerebral guy, which could appeal to Trey. Whatever his decision, as a guy who was correctly labeled as “old” on here this weekend, I feel a great deal of optimism knowing that young men like Trey are part of the future of this country Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

milehiiu Posted September 8, 2020 Report Share Posted September 8, 2020 In terms of IU and IU's coaches. "We stand together in a good place." " I continue to hear from them nearly daily." "My mom and I enjoyed our walking visits to UNC and Virginia". "And though Virginia has a beautiful campus... I was particularly impressed with the compactness of the UNC campus."

That's because they don't need those pesky extra classrooms for fake classes they offer to student athletes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Come on, it's not as though West Lafayette or Lafayette are winning any prizes for beauty. And when it's humid with the wind blowing in the right (actually wrong) direction, Staley's sink makes it into town. I'm a Purdue alumnus so I'm familiar with the area and this isn't hearsay.

Really. Unfair. He's not playing IU fans. He's giving recognition to the school where his uncle is a Hall of Famer. I cannot reiterate how important family is in this decision. And, IU can be thankful it is, because if he ends up at IU, that will be a major factor. As far as 'get it done', I'll keep sounding like a broken record. We did not demand a September commitment from Cody, Yogi, TJD, JBJ, Romeo, etc. Why are we demanding one of Trey? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And could take a plane for official visits. Heck... Trey and his mom drove to the East Coast. Only to take a walk. They could have done that at home.

But, we know the IU staff wouldn’t want to trade places with any other school right now. They really can’t do much more than they already have with Trey. It’s now up to him if that’s the option he sees as the best fit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That said he isn’t going to ISU. We all know that. What’s the highest rated player they’ve ever landed? Who have they put in the NBA. Campus and school is below par educationally at best. Down to 4.
