Cooper Jones Commits to Indiana


KDB

Recommended Posts

Currently our 14th highest rated recruit since 247 started doing rankings.  I love that we've pulled in 2 top rated in state defensive linemen.  I know McGraw said he was excited about Hagen and Ballou, but hopefully he's liking what he's seeing out of Peoples and Wellman.  Hard not to like it!

The 2020 class was big on the OL, and the 2021 class already has two big time DL.  Love that we're building solid lines.

Any idea what are chances are with those guys?

I'll bet we're the leader with LC. I'd say the same about the kid from Bloomington.. and you'd have to think the QB likes how the years match up with Penix and being a JR when he'd be a FR. 

Vinny Fiacable could be an option. Dont think we'd get all three OL though. I know the kid from FC likes UL.

"There are two big reasons why I chose Indiana," he said. "The first one is how amazing Coach Allen is and how great everything he preaches is. The culture he has created there is one I want to be a part of. The other reason is Coach (Aaron) Wellman, the new strength coach."

Looks like a good chance we both end up with really good classes of in-state guys. 

There is a ton of BIG level talent in the state this year.   IU and PU will have to work hard to pull some of those guys in.  I am tired of seeing UM, OSU,  and ND cherry pick the top few guys every year. 

Add in the guys that MSU and Iowa have grabbed recently would have help IU and PU too.

No doubt. Will be interesting to see where some of the guys still on the board end up going.

Who is from FC?  Do you have his name?  I can’t seem to find him.  

If we get Collinsworth (lofty ranking), Austin Booker, and Sales, after that, anything else in-state would be gravy considering who we’ve already got.  And, if, as expected we can continue our good work in the South (especially in states where we’ve had recent success like Florida, Georgia, Tennessee and Mississippi), particularly with respect to team speed, boom, this class could be lights out.   Not to mention, we’ve been targeting some good talent in Michigan.  But if the momentum in the in-state end of it continues to accelerate, the class can really come together.

Might be hard to get Booker now.. not sure though.

Heard anything recently on Sales? Hoping he and Richards pop for Purdue soon. 

I dont hear much at all about Purdue. You get Sales from BD... thatd be interesting. We will probably only take one more OL. 

McCulley, Sales, and Booker (if we can make it work).
