But hindsight’s 20/20... Hopefully Anderson provides about as much value in 4 years as Henry does in 2-3. None of the national experts recognized it either. Take a look back at where Henry was ranked. He wasn't considered a special talent...just a solid ball player at roughly Anderson's level. Much like Franklin and Newman, he was given the chance to commit first. I don't remember anyone at the time thinking that was a mistake on IU's part.

Henry had his chance but Hunter and Anderson committed first. Henry's dad said that the offer still was there but after those two committed they did not hear that much from the coaching staff. Thanks for clearing that up. I thought it was an either/or like Newman and Franklin and I still think it mostly was but that adds some interesting detail to the process. Sounds like they were telling him they weren't nearly as interested after Damezi committed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Someone posted it on the Rivals board. He's truly the most delusional man ever. Tom's delusional...here's a small example of why the man is not popular among his peers. He didn't get a meaningful recruit out of the state of Indiana his last 3 recruiting cycles...Sorry Grant Gelon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But as everyone here also likes to say, “the rankings don’t matter.” It’s a matter of talent evaluation by the staff. In retrospect, Henry definitely should have been prioritized over Anderson, regardless of their rankings. But it’s water under the bridge now, and like I said, there’s still a chance that 4 years of Anderson is about as good as 2-3 years of Henry.

I'd also give Archie a pass since that was his first class. He didn't have as much time to evaluate new prospects on the radar. ...as you said, water under the bridge now...

jefftheref Posted November 27, 2019 Report Share Posted November 27, 2019 Crean has been sniffing his tanning lotion. If he was as good as he thinks he is he would of hung banners and would still be here. Crean needs to come out of the paint room and get back to reality.
