Hoosierdave 899 Posted June 26, 2020 Report Share Posted June 26, 2020 Rabjohns posted an article about him today so I guess that means we’re still heavily involved. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

It did say that Maryland took a commit from a similar sized wing and has since slowed down communication. I think the big 3 contenders have consistently been Indiana, Louisville, and Maryland, so I would categorize that as significant. 5 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I know counting scholarships can be a waste of time but I think UL has had 2 people commit recently so unless they have transfers/guys go pro, I believe they only have one scholarship left for the 2021 class. Also, will be interesting to see what happens to schools linked with the FBI scandal considering the penalties they gave to Ok St. I like our chances right now especially with guys not having the chance to get more looks with the recruiting dead period being extended. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
BobSaccamanno 5,050 Posted June 26, 2020 Report Share Posted June 26, 2020 If Aminu commits and he proves to be a one and done, or two and done, McNeely in 2022 makes a lot of sense. Maybe Gunn too. I want to see more of McNeely but he seemed to capture Archie’s fancy. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

IU Scott 10,954 Posted June 28, 2020 Report Share Posted June 28, 2020 If we have 5 openings I would see us having a 4 man class because it doesn't appear that Archie wants 13 scholarship players. Duncomb, Kaufman, Miller would be a very good class and add Wesley or Muhammad we would have a great class. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Hoosierdave 899 Posted June 28, 2020 Report Share Posted June 28, 2020 With 13 scholarship players, we can add three more commits, currently. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Seeking6 9,562 Posted June 28, 2020 Report Share Posted June 28, 2020 No clue whether we get Aminu or not. What we all know as avid fans is this. You keep stacking classes on top of each other like this and eventually the Big 10 titles, F4's and stuff is going to happen. Many always said Archie just needed a platform....and I'm hoping for our sakes we are seeing that develop right before our eyes. Kind of feel like we are building a 2002 team. 5-6 very good players peppered with 1-2 elite. 7 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Hoosierdave 899 Posted June 29, 2020 Report Share Posted June 29, 2020 Peegs made a new hot board today and the teaser was that Aminu is “moving up” on it. I don’t have a subscription to 247 so not sure what the new order is. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Duncomb, Kaufman, Miller would be a very good class and add Wesley or Muhammad we would have a great class. Archie has not recently had 13 man squads but I think this year he should recruit to a fully stocked roster (if all the commitments are quality/fit) because based on the current landscape there is a very high probability of: 1) either TJD, Lander (doubt it, but who knows) or Muhammad, if we land him, going pro, and/or 2) at least one of the players being unhappy with playing time and looking for perceived greener pastures.

Ermann is at 92% and has picked some early and some last minute. I always take CB predictions with a grain of salt, but it is nice when one of the competing schools insiders predicts IU. It can't be a bad thing. 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

dgambill 6,323 Posted July 6, 2020 Report Share Posted July 6, 2020 (edited) Well at least it must indicate that Maryland doesn't feel like they are in the lead for the kid. Doesn't mean an IU lock but must help our chances! We need some back court scoring so this is exciting! Would love the thought of a 21 backcourt of Rob/Lander Aminu/Armaan….that's a good backcourt!
