I posted last week that I was hearing that but did not know enough to agree or disagree That is true. The point is he does seem to be more accurate on things than some of the other national guys. Will he when it comes to IU? Time will tell I guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I posted last week that I was hearing that but did not know enough to agree or disagree To me it is better for us to get him if he signs in the fall than waiting until the spring. If he waits then maybe it would give teams like KU or UNC more of a chance to get him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My thoughts are that if he is seriously considering us then the results of this year really don't matter so the sooner the better. If he is waiting to see how we perform then I would fear us losing to a UNC or someone like that. I still believe its us and Marquette Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe I’m picking and choosing but I would be much more apt to listen to him about a national recruit who is talking to multiple teams nationally then a local recruit who has been really quiet on the national scene. Now I know all kids are local somewhere but Garcia has had a pretty public national recruitment so I would imagine he would follow it more closely.

But honestly I don’t care who the other team is whether it’s Purdue or somewhere else just so he ends up at IU. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are no such things as moral victories or being close in recruiting, but it's nice to be in the game this late with many high profile recruits Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dbmhoosier Posted October 14, 2019 Report Share Posted October 14, 2019 Honestly if he wasn't an Indiana kid and one of Archie's top targets I doubt Cal would even give him a look. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems like IU is sometimes used as a talent scout for teams like pUKe. True or not, I'm ready for IU to start regularly beating UK for talent.

I would assume it’s because they are extremely close to one another and Cal trusts Archies ability to scout talent. So if Archie wants him and he fills a need at Kentucky then Cal will take a look too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
5fouls Posted October 14, 2019 Report Share Posted October 14, 2019 I don't think UK's interest is a reaction to IU's interest. Truthfully, there were several high profile schools that were watching Trey before IU started even taking serious looks. Some of those you no longer hear about for whatever reason. Purdue may have actually been the first major program to show real interest. All that said, if Trey continues to move up the rankings, I would expect interest from other big name schools to also increase. He's also an excellent student, so academics will also be a factor to consider. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
5fouls Posted October 14, 2019 Report Share Posted October 14, 2019 Another thing to consider is that Trey plays in the Louisville media market. He's getting as much, if not more, media coverage in the state of Kentucky than he is getting in Indiana. Cal would be foolish to not take a look at a Top 30 player from the area that IU and UL have already offered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's inevitable, but it is still frustrating as hell, especially when the slimeball swoops in with a late offer after IU's staff has invested a ton of time in Indiana's best players Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
