Not to mention Race, Hunter...and Duncomb next year. You think Archie will slow down? Miller and Mohammad are being prioritized right now and if we miss on those?? Hit the transfer market for a year and load up in 2022. Am I upset? Sure....but this isn't the end of the world at all. Special kid and player but he's done to this IU fan. We move on. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Special kid and player but he's done to this IU fan. We move on. To me it is so much harder being an IU fan today than it use to be. I use to be proud to be part of the IU fan base but today's fans just ruin it for me. All the ocnstant negativity especially over one recruit is just mind blowing to me. I think some people just get off on being negative and looking at everything in a negative light. I am glad I don't see the world in this light because I would just shoot myself. Yes I am dissappointed that Trey did not pick Iu but the last 6 months has shown me that the outcome of a recruiting battle is not very important. Having your company sell out your department that have worked in for 6 years. Then catching the virus and losing you job puts think in a different perspective. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

My confidence all week as well My guess is the “sources” from the IU side were all connected to the team/athletic department and not the kid/family. Thus, if staff was feeling confident it was probably relayed and “our” insiders felt good. Works when staff is right. Not so much when wrong.

That is why most “insiders” are wrong 😀. Werent we making fun of the Purdue Rivals insider regarding Kaufman saying he was using Painter? Guess Painter has a better “feel” than Archie and the boys Edited October 30, 2020 by iucane Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Bc our insiders thought it was IU up until the last 24 hours. Evidently it never was. 3 minutes ago, IU Scott said: I don't think I would ever use this as a source because I am sure most coaching staff feels good about a recruitment. You’ll get some of them right if you’re listening to somebody close to the program, but agree, wouldn’t consider that real inside info. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Threedom 150 Posted October 30, 2020 Report Share Posted October 30, 2020 Trey since this is “live”, one last thing ....make sure you factor in the girls. It’s gotta kinda matter, right? So there is one clear choice, and it’s definitely not WL. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
IUCrazy2 1,578 Posted October 30, 2020 Report Share Posted October 30, 2020 31 minutes ago, IU Scott said: What irritates some of us is that no one was even tlaking about Archie for a long time. Everything I saw has been a lot of people being enthusiastic about the upcoming season and thought everything was headed in the rigt direction. What really upsets people is that since one recruit comes out and goes elsewhere then people come out of the wood work who has been here complaining about Archie and the direction of the program. That's an easy one. We have not been good by any stretch of the imagination for a long period of time. We have had 3 decent years IIRC since Crean was hired. Last year was finally a potential NCAA tournament year, but even that had us under .500 in conference and finishing in the bottom half. Every little bad thing that happens leads to a sky is falling type of reaction because to many people, the sky fell years ago and the improvement that has occurred has been slow and ugly. I get why people are pessimistic. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
IU Scott 8,264 Posted October 30, 2020 Report Share Posted October 30, 2020 From my perspective Iu would have more pros than cons than Purdue has when picking a school Pros for IU- Basketball history of winning championships, facilities, campus, friends that are already on the team, fan base that loves basketball. Being able to play the stretch 4 since they already have a center of the future. Cons- I guess the offensive style Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Colonialcrester 564 Posted October 30, 2020 Report Share Posted October 30, 2020 After seeing all the information coming out we at HSN are lowering our confidence level for Trey coming to IU from 65% to 55%. We will let you know more when we hear from our insiders Quote Link to post Share on other sites

He has been here 3 years and why not let him try to build the program back up before tryng to tear him down. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I see no problem with the offense and the strategy because all I see is a lot of good open shots. The problem is that the players can't hit the open shots. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
