FW_Hoosier Posted April 17, 2020 Report Share Posted April 17, 2020 2 hours ago, Seeking6 said: Trying to figure out these 2021 pieces. Aminu, TK, Patterson....couple other less profile guys. Thought it was essentially going to have 2 of those fill up the class. I guess if we're still in it. We're still in it. As we saw with the Keion Brooks situation, the more irons in the fire the better... Not gonna be able to get them all. Seems like things are shaping up well for this class.

Staying in touch, staying in the ring and fighting instead of tapping out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe. All I ever read was that it “might” be tough to beat out OSU and Xavier since he’d never been on an official visit. It’s ok sometimes if even beat writers don’t have the scoop before it’s gone public. That happens. But I know some found out at least a day or so ago before he committed. Detailed scouting report articles and quotes from his HS coach were posted literally hours before he committed. Those articles were posted for a reason.

I’ve been of the belief he’d stay home and go to ND. I’ve felt like this was a long shot for a while but it’s obvious Archie and company aren’t giving up just yet.

Ok, so if you are wrong about this, do you think people will get as upset as they do when "all signs point to yes" and it turns out to be a "no"? 🤔😂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you are onto something. Though IU continues the chase. I heard a while back that IU is in the back of the pack. With at least four other schools ahead of IU.

Stlboiler23 Posted April 21, 2020 Report Share Posted April 21, 2020 33 minutes ago, CoachSS said: I would still say this won't happen but I'd now word it as "it probably won't happen." Hopefully next week or the week after it can be "never know in recruiting." It seems this, like Kaufman, could be another instance where the local options end up being the ONLY options. Curious how ND & IU are spinning Purdue's scholarship situation. Maybe it hasn't come up, maybe it has. IDK. Wesley has more upside than probably any guard on the in-state rosters (sans Lander? Geronimo if you call him a "guard"?). But, Purdue isn't short on options whereas ND has the academics to appease his mother and offers the playing time from day one he is probably craving/ expecting based on his ability. I’d love to land Wesley. I wouldn’t be surprised if the oversign is used in the ‘21 class to take 3 instead of 2 and I’m assuming we’ll continue to recruit Harrison Ingram down to the wire.
