Yeah let's all bet the season on Race holding down the fort by himself. It's like the Pat Ewing Jr days all over again. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We always want them but don't necessarily need them. We seriously need them in that class unless you're suggesting that Trayce is back as a junior. Highly unlikely.

If he doesn't develop this during the 2020-2021 season, I would think there is a legit shot he returns for one more year 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IU Scott Posted April 7, 2020 Report Share Posted April 7, 2020 1 hour ago, BGleas said: Seems like a really strong pickup! I really like what Archie is doing in terms of roster. I think you need two guys like Kaufman and Muhammad to make it take off, but the makeup is there for really strong teams. There's just a really nice mix of presumably 4-year guys (Franklin, Leal, Galloway, etc.), a couple lower rated guys with huge upside (like Geronimo), and then more immediate "star" guys with Lander and then hopefully adding Kaufman and Muhammad. That's a solid mix of guys that bring star power mixed with foundational, 4-year guys to survive and still be competitive if some of those stars leave sooner than anticipated. I wouldn't say Geronimo was a lower rated recruit with him being a top 100 player 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's not a Lander, Langford, Zeller, Yogi. He's ranked around 80ish, so a guy you'd expect to probably be around 3 or so years, but he doesn't have the intangible potential with his length and athleticism to over deliver on his ranking like a VO or OG.

Not to bash Nick, the guy who made the Kaufman tweet, he seems like a good guy. I'm not sure if I follow him on Twitter, but I do see a lot of his tweets due to following so many IU accounts and his content is generally really good. With that said, he did tweet yesterday that he lost his job. This isn't meant to be personal, again he seems like a good guy and it's awful that he lost his job during all of this uncertainty. I feel really bad for him. But, the timing does raise the eyebrow. An interesting time to come out with a tweet that you know will generate a TON of interest. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
