As bad as Boston is playing there might still be a few lol.

If our bugs can shoot I sure don't want ones from a portal either. 😁

I like our bigs but man we need one of them to develop an outside shot or get one in the portal that can.

They probably will contact Nunge from Iowa. If he could stay healthy would be nice for some depth.

I hope he stays because I think he has some pretty good potential.

Noah Locke from Florida is one I think IU has contacted.

It's looking pretty good on Coach Woodson retaining some guys. I would guess that Geronimo will be the most likely to leave.

That's great to hear. 👍

I would imagine there is a very good chance of that now.

Hopefully he is someone that Coach Woodson prioritizes, whoever he compares to lol.

This kid seems like he could be a Jordy Hulls type player. Would be a nice get.

Possible but i'm not sure that will make much of a difference. While Juwan has a great class coming in I think that has more to do with his NBA ties, so if anything helps coach Woodson with recruiting it will be his NBA ties not race. There might be a few recruits that it helps get him in the door but I think that would be a low number.

Carr and Mashburn would be good ones to try and get, depending on who we lose.

Yeah no matter what side of the fence a person sits on with this hire, liking it of not liking it, we have to have this work out. If say in four years this looks like it might not work out we are in big trouble. If one of our own can't get it turned around I don't see any other top flight coach taking a chance to come here and do it. So lets hope Coach Woodson gets this going and is successful.

Yeah I haven't seen it anywhere other then him mentioning it, so I wouldn't put much faith in it.

Hopefully they are still giddy in three or four years, since it sounds like this hire was done to appease most of them. While I didn't like this hire, if we are in the middle of the next B1G season and go on a six or seven game winning streak it would be one of the happiest times I have ever admitted to being wrong.

It would be pretty nice to see.

You can pretty much book a Lakers Nets finals. If healthy you can for the next couple of seasons.

Might have to work with the big ten to get only noon games lol. Also before I get called out for being a horrible fan this is just joking around and having fun.

We definitely need to keep Hunter for recruiting. These old guys while great for their knowledge aren't going to be out there grinding it out on the recruiting trail.

So we should all just be sheep and agree with everything on here? I doubt if anything being said on these forums has any affect on the IU program.

So far everyone that I have seen that didn't like it or was lukewarm towards the hire still said they would give him and IU their support and hopes that he works out.

Everyone that thinks he is going to be great is judging the hire just as much as the ones that don't. They think he is going to be great and the others don't, both sides are the same but just disagree with the outcome.

I've had to repeat this countless times in this thread, but just because someone doesn't like this hire means they are negative, it's just as simple as they would have preferred someone else. Also from what I can see everyone is still behind IU and support them and wants Coach Woodson to win. There are a few that might not be, but it pretty much seems clear to me that everyone wants him to succeed.

While I didn't like the hire and still lukewarm about it, hopefully he checks all these boxes and gets us back to winning. It would be the first time I am happy about being wrong lol.
