milehiiu Posted August 7, 2019 Report Share Posted August 7, 2019 Yep. That's a problem. Indiana is and always has been chock full of basketball talent. When's the last time a big time college HC snagged a talent out of South Dakota ? I rest my case. Thanks for the intel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
5fouls Posted August 7, 2019 Report Share Posted August 7, 2019 From what I've seen, I don't believe Powell is a high D1 talent. Think Clifton Moore and take it down a couple of levels from that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steubenhoosier Posted August 7, 2019 Report Share Posted August 7, 2019 Mike Miller 1st round draft pick of Orlando Magic, out of University of Florida, is from South Dakota. Other notables: - Colton Iverson - Jacob Jaacks - Joe Krabbenhoft - Eric Piatkowski - Jared Reiner - Jon Sundvold - and our favorite ex- head coach, Tim Miles Not Indiana for sure. But not some barren outpost either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Played for the Denver Nuggets. As for listing players from South Dakota. Let's list kids from Indiana. To prove my point. And this is not directed at you Scott. You came up with a great example.

Steubenhoosier Posted August 7, 2019 Report Share Posted August 7, 2019 Not sure what you want bud. I responded to your comment, which was unfounded. Not unusual for you to make either a comment you haven’t researched, or one that is blatantly wrong... happened before. Glad to list a bunch of Indiana kids, but that wouldn’t have been a response to your statement and wouldn’t have made sense. Thanks for calling me out though, in a not so subtle passive aggressive way. Awaiting your spin to make you look like the great guy you are Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
milehiiu Posted August 7, 2019 Report Share Posted August 7, 2019 The 98 Greatest NBA Players from Indiana, Ranked By Fans 98. That's 98. And that's not taking into consideration Indiana players that never moved on to play for pay. As compared to 11 South Dakota players, per my count that made it to the NBA. Not six. Research ?

Steubenhoosier Posted August 7, 2019 Report Share Posted August 7, 2019 Again, not sure what your point is. You made the statements about when a big time HC snagged a talent from S Dak.Going so far as to “rest your case.” No one was refuting that Indiana puts out a lot more elite talent. I listed kids who did play major college basketball and were from S Dakota. It was obvious, that as is the course with you, that you made a flippant comment with nothing to support your stance. And as usual you try to change the narrative to make you look superior. The conversation was not about kids from Indiana. It was to clear up the misconception you rested your case on Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
milehiiu Posted August 7, 2019 Report Share Posted August 7, 2019 And I pointed out that Indiana produces a great more amount of prep BB talent than a state like South Dakota. Hence why Coach Sampson would want to poach Indiana for talent, rather than South Dakota.... or even Montana, where he once coached, and if I recall correctly even has a BB court named after him.

UweBlabermouth Posted August 7, 2019 Report Share Posted August 7, 2019 So the list said people born in Indiana which accounts for the omission of Oscar Robertson. I think he should be included - brings the list to 99! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So many Indiana greats, that even the great "Big O" gets left off the list Preposterous. And thanks for pointing that out. List grows to 99. I dare those that want to compare South Dakota to Indiana, in terms of great BB players to come out of each state. Research. Thanks Blabermouth .

After thoroughly going over the list, i find it odd that it doesn’t list Michael Warren who played under John Wooden and along side lew Alcindor. Consensus all American 2 time Indiana all state player back in the mid 60’s. https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&cd=4&ved=0ahUKEwjJ2rabrPLjAhUMLs0KHTpzDPYQmhMIOTAD&url=https%3A%2F%2Fen.m.wikipedia.org%2Fwiki%2FMichael_Warren_(actor)&usg=AOvVaw1UQx2YR0Cbh7i7PdOxFZZ6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Member of Indiana basketball hall of fame. Went to UCLA when they were dominant. That takes the list to 100. 100 for IU, vs 11 from South Dakota. Thanks for your contribution.

milehiiu Posted August 8, 2019 Report Share Posted August 8, 2019 Anyone here ever been to Houston in the summer time? I have. The heat and humidity is horrible. Best of luck to Kiyron. Just get out of Dodge ( Houston) for the summer months, Kiyron. It's really the humidity that is the killer. So close to the Gulf. For instance. I just checked. Temps at or above 100 for the next five days. And the overnight low for this coming Monday is expected to be 100 ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
