IU Scott Posted January 14, 2021 Report Share Posted January 14, 2021 (edited) The couple of games I saw him on TV he didn't shoot well. I guess when I think of a guy being a big ten recruit I expected a guy to be more dominate. He showed flashes of being really good and he still has over a year until he will be going to college.

IUFLA Posted January 14, 2021 Report Share Posted January 14, 2021 I think he'll be a good start to the 22 class... But Jalen Washington is the one we need... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seeking6 Posted January 14, 2021 Report Share Posted January 14, 2021 CJ reminds me exactly what we did with Armaan. For some reason the ranking services overlooked kid early on but as he adds weight to his frame will be similar. Perfect spot for him to come in, learn from Armaan/Trey/Leal,etc....and be ready to contribute his 1st season but pounce as a starter his 2nd. Exactly the type of kid we want. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dwtaylor1055 Posted January 14, 2021 Report Share Posted January 14, 2021 Think he could turn into a Durham type of guy for this team, sure Durham has his downfalls but overall I'd be happy with CJ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think from reading the TDH articles and the chatter around here, we're the favorite for Gunn...And an announcement this early has to bode well for us, I'd think... Washington? I don't know...We don't get Gary kids too often...But, we're in the race... 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hippopotamo Posted January 14, 2021 Report Share Posted January 14, 2021 I’d love to get Gunn in candy stripes. You also want enthusiastic commits early to help recruit the rest of the class. It’d be a big get IMO 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will be really interesting to see what happens with Washington. If I had to guess as of right now, I’d think it comes down to MSU and Purdue.

I cannot imagine there being a better conference if you combine football and basketball, in the country. Absurd.

RoadToZion Posted January 14, 2021 Report Share Posted January 14, 2021 I'd be shocked if CJ wasn't a Hoosier. In regards to Jalen, I WISH we could land him, but MSU will be tough to beat here.....with Purdue having a little chance also. 5 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoosierhoopster Posted January 14, 2021 Report Share Posted January 14, 2021 Combo guard who can play the 2 or wing with a growing game scouted as having the ability to score at 3 levels? Would/will be a good commit, his game is growing 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absurd. It's hard to imagine but I'd venture to say there probably is. Basketball and football top to bottom is fantastic. I'd imagine some of the Florida leagues are incredible. Texas probably has a few. I'm guessing there are others. Just checking out the high school national top 25 maybe houston. They might have 3 conferences as good as the mic in football.

IUFLA Posted January 14, 2021 Report Share Posted January 14, 2021 Older article from ITH... But there's a couple of quotes/facts that stand out... “I believe I’m a great two-way player,” Gunn said. “I believe I’m unpredictable and I can score on all three levels. Mostly, I’m big on that two-way player, and I take defense as a priority…The game revolves around energy, and I believe defense…you just have that energy on the court, you can feed off of that and that turns into offense.” His size and stature (Gunn stands 6-foot-5, weighs 175 lbs. and has a 6-foot-9 wingspan) allows him to be equally comfortable bringing the ball up the court and playing on the wing, skills he’s helped refine this summer by playing AAU games in Fort Wayne, Indiana, with the Indy Heat Gym Rats." 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Easily. If it was football only, that’d be a different story but combined you’re absolutely right. Shit throw in the other sports too while you’re at it. Insane talent. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My head football coach in HS and the guy I work under now (Reed May) was on those teams. All of that was before these MIC schools became mega HS's 2500+ LN starts 6'7, 6'5, 6'5... brings 6'9 off the bench. 2 of their top 8 are D1 football players, 3 of their top 8 are D1 basketball palyers, and the 6'9 kid isn't either of those lol crazy.
