Hoosier51 Posted March 28, 2022 Report Share Posted March 28, 2022 (edited) 7 minutes ago, CoachSS said: I think some are misunderstanding the reasons I'm being coy. As an Indiana fan and someone who knows Booker, his interests and his game very, very well: it's for the best, as an IU fan, if he ends up elsewhere. There's many, many reasons for this. Those don't need to be public. If Coach Woodson is the coach everyone thinks he is then I will go with him on this. The Hoosiers are still recruiting him and seem to maybe be in the lead for him, so whatever it is they must not be to worried about it. I would imagine they have done their homework on Booker.

So don't come to Indiana because our fan base would destroy him.Makes sense but other fan bases do the same. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IU_Realist Posted March 28, 2022 Report Share Posted March 28, 2022 Just now, Mike said: So don't come to Indiana because our fan base would destroy him.Makes sense but other fan bases do the same. I am not fine with destroying kids. All fans are the same but some resonate more because they’re bigger. Kid is what he is. He proves everyone wrong good for him. Basic consensus of people is does he like playing basketball because it seems like he doesn’t. Schools think that and it’s a reason some have put a hold on his offer.

Indykev Posted March 28, 2022 Report Share Posted March 28, 2022 Someone needs to sit this kid down and say, hey, do you want millions of dollars in 4 or 5 years? yes? well get your head removed from your ass and start doing x,y and z. If they aren't they are the problem. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WRSMick55 Posted March 28, 2022 Report Share Posted March 28, 2022 Maybe the better question is” do you really want to play basketball, would you like to make a career of it? If so, then you need to put the work and effort in. If not, then fine. Go have some fun.” 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FKIM01 Posted March 28, 2022 Report Share Posted March 28, 2022 Yeah, it's easy for those of us who love basketball to say "work harder!", but if the kid truly doesn't love the game and doesn't care about the money, I can respect that even if my basketball-loving self can't understand it. ...but man...that kid has some gifts. Too bad they are non-transferrable. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
