dwtaylor1055 Posted October 30, 2020 Report Share Posted October 30, 2020 maybe this one isn’t over like everyone is speculating? From TKs Instagram story Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DC2345 Posted October 30, 2020 Report Share Posted October 30, 2020 Trey made a post on his Instagram that said "It pains me to see that people will lie and use my name and likeness to try and devalue a project that has taken so many people so much time and effort to produce. The REAL #Committed video will be out at 6pm today, and while inconvenient for some, not a second sooner. As for Pegram I think he got duped by the fake video this morning. He tweeted about the fake as if it was real and then changed his pick. Other than that I don't know but Trey seems to be frustrated by the whole thing and I don't blame him.

I know a lot of people poo-poo the idea that CAM's birthday is of any relevance, but I do...It would be like rubbing his face in it to me, and Trey just doesn't strike me as that kind of kid... But he is the kind of kid who would release all this fake info and then rub Painter's face in it? Seems to me like that would be a pretty crappy thing to do too.

IUProfessor Posted October 30, 2020 Report Share Posted October 30, 2020 Assuming that Kaufman does end up selecting Purdue, I am struck by how similar this recruitment will have played out compared to the Keion Brooks recruitment. First, despite the insiders hearing that IU was in great shape and that a commitment was imminent, the announcement ended up slipping for several months. That's not a knock on the insiders at all, just an interesting similarity that some here picked up on, and everyone probably should have paid more heed to. Note to future self: if a heavy IU lean goes months longer without announcing than everyone expected, he probably isn't a heavy IU lean. More troubling is that this appears to be a second time in which Archie was (for the most part) all in on a recruit who dragged things out, without any safety net should that fall through (Mason Miller strikes me as a different player than Kaufman, and even then is hardly guaranteed at this point). Color me a bit surprised that Archie would -- apparently -- make the same mistake twice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Threedom Posted October 30, 2020 Report Share Posted October 30, 2020 It doesn’t sound good for us, but I am holding on to hope given how crazy the past 15 hrs have been. Either way I feel for this young man and his family with how this has played out. They have done it all right. Keep your head up Trey! And good luck on your decision and hoops career!

DC2345 Posted October 30, 2020 Report Share Posted October 30, 2020 I did just see a picture of what looks to be Trey walking in the Jeffersonville HS radio station from last night. I still haven't heard any real audio though so who knows but Trey seems pretty straight forward that last night wasn't real. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This was a weird recruitment. SC has maybe the best 3A team we've seen... like ever... and now outside of SC fans, no is really going to care. Painter is a darn good coach. Again weird recruitment and truthfully glad this is over. Curious if you can elaborate on the “you aren’t remembered at Purdue” comment? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The kids get their feelings hurt because they don't get their moment and fans get pissy because, let's face it, there is a ton of showmanship in these announcements these days that are directly related to kind of leading people on. "But it's a big decision..." yeah it is and it is a decision that is easy to keep people out of. You don't have to talk to Rabjohns, you don't have to post a Top 5 on Twitter when everyone and their Grandma knows that hell will freeze over before you actually go to Indiana State. I have no reason to believe that Kauffman and Family are nothing but the salt of the earth, but I find it amusing when stuff like this happens and people get mad. Dude, you jumped on the bull expecting you could control it. That's not how this normally works. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great players at Purdue aren't remembered the same way that great players at IU are. As a Purdue fan you can disagree but that is a fact. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GrangerHoosier Posted October 30, 2020 Report Share Posted October 30, 2020 He's trying to add intrigue. Face it, Painter was the lead recruiter from the start in this recruitment, and Archie was not. That makes a difference with kids. There's a reason we're inquiring about some 6'10" Finnish player. Hopefully we can get Mason Miller instead. Duncomb, Miller, and Aminu Mohammed would be a hell of a class. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IUskim Posted October 30, 2020 Report Share Posted October 30, 2020 Well. At least with all the 🤬 that went down last night we don’t have to sit in agony all day and get crushed when he picks Purdue later today. Good luck to him and let’s move on to our next recruit and cheer for the guys we do have on our team now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DC2345 Posted October 30, 2020 Report Share Posted October 30, 2020 Who wants to bet that if Trey picks Purdue before his time is up there that Furst will play the 5 and TK will play the 4 unless Edey actually turns into something. I'd put pretty high odds on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Color me a bit surprised that Archie would -- apparently -- make the same mistake twice. Kaufman did not 'drag things out'. It's been posted numerous times in this thread with a list of players, but top recruits from this state rarely commit before the November signing period of their Senior year. This includes TJD, Romeo, Zeller, Yogi, Blackmon, etc. Some lesser in-state recruits do to ensure their spot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
