IndianaHQ is the account claiming this news. Very curious who it will be. Would think it would be Anderson even though reports have come out that he’s committed, but also have heard Smith could be a potential for a grad transfer. I’ve heard Al could do the grad transfer thing, but it’s all rumors on these fronts. Will be very interesting........ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brass Cannon Posted April 23, 2020 Report Share Posted April 23, 2020 Gotta think if a player is leaving now it’s because there’s a transfer Archie wants to bring in Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have so many players at that 2/3 spot - I just don't see much opportunity for him to earn minutes. He is a good kid - should go somewhere he can get his confidence going.

DC2345 Posted April 23, 2020 Report Share Posted April 23, 2020 I would guess it’s either Anderson, Smith, or Durham. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IU_Realist Posted April 23, 2020 Report Share Posted April 23, 2020 It is not Franklin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheWatShot Posted April 23, 2020 Report Share Posted April 23, 2020 My guess is someone other than Anderson. That's how this stuff tends to work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JaybobHoosier Posted April 23, 2020 Report Share Posted April 23, 2020 Not seeing it on Twitter, but not surprised by this. Hate to see him transferring, but probably best for him to get a fresh start and reset. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IU4Ever Posted April 23, 2020 Report Share Posted April 23, 2020 If Anderson has decided to transfer perhaps his decision is related to a commitment announcement that's hinted at in a different thread and he sees no opportunity for a larger role than he had this year. Just thinkin' out loud. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was just getting excited about having him return with a renewed focus but I completely understand him going somewhere where he can play like he did early in the season.

FKIM01 Posted April 23, 2020 Report Share Posted April 23, 2020 I was pretty rock-solid Damezi was probably leaving before his coach said he was committed to sticking it out. Any of these guys leaving now would be a disappointment in my mind. I see zero reason Al or Justin would leave as they'll both get significant minutes on a much improved team.

The Daily Hoosier Posted April 23, 2020 Report Share Posted April 23, 2020 This includes his Instagram post if you want to see what he said about it. He went out with class and grace as I would have expected. Definitely a dude everyone should be rooting for wherever he ends up. https://www.thedailyhoosier.com/iu-basketball-damezi-anderson-is-in-the-transfer-portal/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FKIM01 Posted April 23, 2020 Report Share Posted April 23, 2020 Well, I really like Damezi and wish him the best. Seems to be a great young man and my wish for him is that he finds his stroke and succeeds at a high level. Now I also hope he goes to Notre Dame and takes the scholarship they were holding for Wesley. A man can dream, right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
