Could be a myriad of reasons. From they did more research and didn't like playing style, uncertainty around the coach, who we already have on the roster and incoming signed already, to family pressure, playing time, NIL money, or the wind was from the NE on a Tuesday. If the trend continues or we continue to not sign anyone, I would say its something about the program then. Play style, coach, program, fans, etc..

You have your opinion, i have mine. I just don't like it. same if in a baseball field, they had weird colored infields or outfields with designs that made it hard to see the ball, i probably wouldn't like that either. But its only my opinion. I respect yours. Enjoy. I am done with this conversation.

This is way more involved than i want to dive into. Lane color is fine. Mid-court logo is fine. The rest of the floor should be wood colored with only the lines needed for a basketball game. Any color outside of the main court is fine. Where i have an issue is like Oregon's court which is really distracting. Or courts that have 400 extra lines for volleyball or floor hockey or whatever. Some of these are ok, some of these are just to much and distracting. https://www.usatoday.com/picture-gallery/sports/ncaab/2020/02/26/college-basketball-20-boldest-weirdest-court-designs-league/4668241002/

I don't mind the end zone being painted, but i think the main playing surface should be the same across all schools. I personally don't like basketball courts being super busy and distracting. But that's just me.

My fear with all these portal guys is that it's going to take to long for the team to gel and find their feet and we're going to be very inconstant all year similar to this year. We're always the most confident in the off season. We're world beaters. We have the making of a final 4 team, going to be top 25 and no one in the b1g is as talented at any position as IU. No reason we can't be top 3. The talking heads will pick us 10th and we'll bitch about it all off season. Only to prove they know a little about basketball. I am happy we have players coming back. I am happy we have a '24 recruit finally. I will be happy to get some actual shooters hopefully. But I am not getting my hopes up. No more. Prove it over the first half of the season. Dominate the bad team and compete with the good ones.

From the videos i have seen, he doesn't look better than liam. But that is just me. I am going to agree with btown in that he doesn't look like a starter, but more of a 15-20min guy off the bench. Liam was a day 1 starter level talent though. I honestly don't think this kid is a 5* level talent from the little i have seen. But i know nothing about anything so take for what its worth.

Does anyone have a breakdown of his stats over the last 2 years? I couldn't find anything other than some USA stats. What is his shooting percentage? Free throws? 3pts? Just like to see what he did recently. Great pick up. He plays the 3, Mbako goes to the 4 and MR to the 5. Pick up a CG, 2x SG and a PG and we're good

I went to Boonville. If you went to the same Mt. Vernon that was in our conference, we're not far apart

Why in gods name do they have 2 games going at the same time. Why not start 1 at 4, 6, 8, and 10 or better yet 12, 3, 6, 9 So stupid

At this point, it might be easier to list players who are not jumping to the portal. lol

I know TH North and South are pretty big or were when i was at ISU

I think some of it depends on if he is planning to finish school and get his degree or is the plan to jump to the NBA as soon as possible. I hope he is thinking Student and Athlete but i would understand if his sole goal is NBA next year and not caring about losing credits or classes to transfer if it is the best for getting pro.

we had about 8 i think at Boonville. i had 198 in my class

Holy crap, those are big schools.

Is Perkins local? I am not familiar with where he is from? Did he initially want to be at IU? I didn't follow his recruitment.

My guts says he comes back, But i wouldn't be surprised if he decided to do something else. He is taking longer than the other to announce his intentions, which is his right. I am sure he is talking through what it would mean to transfer, get feedback from the Pros and how it would impact him staying. Seems like a smart kid. Was very good as a freshman and i assume will be even better next year as he matures, learns and develops more skills. Is he a 3 or a 4 is a big question for him to determine what he wants to do. I really like the kid and hope he comes back.

OMG. You all have lost your collective F*&^ing minds over the stupidest sh&$. I am out. Have a great day. Enough internet for me this morning

End zones are different. Middle logo is different. Size of the stadium/arena is different. Color of the playing surface should be uniform in my opinion. I 100% believe Boise State has an advantage with that blue field and their blue home jerseys. I believe Oregon's wild floor pattern plays an effect on shooters and is just hard to watch from a viewers standpoint. There are so many ways to differentiate your program and keep some tradition standards. Again, all my opinion and i know absolutely nothing about anything so i leave it at that

meh, disagree but i feel like recently you disagree with everything. All i said is basketball courts should be the same color and so should football fields. Not saying they should all be the same size or shape. But its my opinion and that is all it is. Its something i don't like. You don't have to agree. Feel free to like whatever you want my man. Have a great day

Some of the places i have seen NIT games in feel like high school gyms. And honestly, the NCAA should require all floors to be exactly the same. No Oregon floor, no Boise State football turf, etc..

Its the Wild West out there.

they sure aren't leaving for a shit show dumpster fire program with inept administration....... OHHHHH i get what you're saying

That is the number i heard from the bucket and from sales

He is by far their best player and my friends out here were talking about how coach needs to keep him. Guess not. Not sure if he knows how to play defense though

That kid was making 2mil NIL a year. N freaking way he was ever leaving IU, and his volleyball player girlfriend is at IU. He didn't even need to announce. And why is everyone announcing they are coming back. Unless you hit the portal, we can assume you're still on the team.
