KDB Posted May 23, 2019 Report Share Posted May 23, 2019 2020 4-star PG from Connecticut. We offered per Evan Daniels. https://247sports.com/Player/Hassan-Diarra-46048465/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zeisloft and Roth Posted May 23, 2019 Report Share Posted May 23, 2019 Is it just me or are we terrible at recruiting kids from prep schools? I believe the last players we got from a prep school were Thomas Bryant and Curtis Jones (Huntington Prep). I like our chances even less since the prep school is located in the Northeast.

dgambill Posted May 23, 2019 Report Share Posted May 23, 2019 Looks like the kind of kid Arch would go after at Dayton. Tough physical player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Troy Williams from Oak Hill and would you call Park Tudor as prep school since that is where Yogi is from. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Daily Hoosier Posted May 23, 2019 Report Share Posted May 23, 2019 Compiled some videos and quotes here. As someone that has been saying that IUBB has lacked tough guys, this kid is intriguing to say the least. https://www.thedailyhoosier.com/indiana-basketball-offers-2020-point-guard-hassan-diarra/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So what you're telling me is that when we DO get kids from prep schools - they're really good (except Jones). I think Robert Johnson was also from a prep school. I am not counting Park Tudor as they participate in IHSAA basketball. Regardless, I don't like our chances here unless we have a hook with this kid - born in Indiana, father is besties with Bruiser, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interesting that Georgia (Crean), Texas Tech (Bob and Pat) and Dayton (Archie) are three of the schools. Interesting, very interesting. Waiting for Sampson and Davis to offer next. That being said if IW gets involved we're doomed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
5fouls Posted May 23, 2019 Report Share Posted May 23, 2019 Why would we be doomed if Incarnate Word got involved. We came out on top in our only recruiting battle against them. And it gave us a very popular 4 year player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will say this..I will worry about Archie’s recruiting when we bring in a kid like this lol. Archie seems to value his scholarships on a whole different level.

DC2345 Posted May 24, 2019 Report Share Posted May 24, 2019 This kid could potentially be a reclass option as he has already graduated. He is probably planning on a prep year at this point but it could be an option. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always thought it would have been cool if, when Priller got off the bench to go in a game, the pep band would have broken into Michael Jackson's "Thriller" and the student section would have sung... Cause this is Priller Priller night And no one’s gonna save you From the beast about to strike You know it’s Priller Priller night You’re fighting for your life Inside a killer Priller tonight, yeah Ahahahahahahahaha I'm gonna bring it tonight Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he reclassifies, but redshirts, he's still essentially 2020. Lander is 2021. Rob will still be here for his Senior season. That's a crowd at PG. None of those guys are going to want to be 3rd string. I know as a coach you have to seize opportunity, but I think signing a true point in '19 or '20 impacts the chances you have to get Lander.
