Do you know of any with open ones that he is considering. I thought it would be II, Georgia or Georgetown any dark horses that may have 1 still open Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Georgetown and Georgia doesn't have any openings so this is good. Unless he is looking at other programs that have openings we don't know about it is looking good.

IU Scott Posted November 24, 2020 Report Share Posted November 24, 2020 Wish he had put an actual date instead of just saying it will be in a few weeks. This will make this thread go crazy with people checking every few minutes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't see why he wouldn't be. If he did I wouldn't expect much this year, but what the heck would we have to lose by trying to work him in some. It's not like he would be here four years anyway. I'm clearly no insider, but for some reason I wouldn't be surprised if we land this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IU Scott Posted November 24, 2020 Report Share Posted November 24, 2020 Don't remember to many recruits coming in January and saying right away. It would be difficult for Muhammad to come on and get up to speed that quickly. It would also be harder for the team to get chemistry with him. Also say he comes in and plays right away would he be eligible for the draft next year. I wouldn't think he would because his high school class will still not graduate until May Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So even if he enrolls early we would get at least one season out of him, but that’s more than likely it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ElectricBoogaloo Posted November 24, 2020 Report Share Posted November 24, 2020 If I was a scholarship player on Georgia or Georgetown, I would keep my nose clean for the next month or so! Can't risk creating an "open" spot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
addictedtoIU Posted November 24, 2020 Report Share Posted November 24, 2020 hmm...can I buy a bottle of champagne? Not a bad new for us I think. A talented kid like him who's also physically ready should benefit a lot more by coming to college early. He can improve and learn a lot more scoring 8 points/game in college than scoring 30 points against smaller and weaker high school kids. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
