Freshman are allowed to get better

They both shoot career 33% from three. Which i would take from my PG, especially T Perk who brings sooo much more. don't know anything about Walker's game.

Walker?

could both he and the kid from Iowa co-exist as starters?

They could if IU decided to go that route 

Myles Rice is looking interesting

In other words, the same method that got them a 1 man recruiting class and 6 open scholarships.

Possibly. They are involved with several others. I’ve also heard they wanted to make it a two day official visit so they pushed it back. We’ll see what happens.

I’d have to think they are waiting on Conwell. Also I heard Danny Wokf is only talking to high academic schools. Realize he’s not a guard but I’d say IU is out on him.

They weren’t involved. Michigan might be the current leader

Scotty Middleton just entered the portal. Maybe the long rumored Bruce Thornton is about to do the same. But this sounds all too familiar of this staff's turning up their nose at a good player because they only want great players.

I don't know Walker's game, or if he's the type of player we need. But there was enough mutual interest to set up the visit. Don't see the point in dropping just a visit from a guy at a position of need. Better be real sure you have a bigger fish on the line. (reel sure?)

I do know there’s several players they’ve been talking to that have been kept pretty quiet. I don’t even know who they all are. That said I don’t know how far along things are they could be getting ready to commit or not. They also have some they’re still waiting on so we’ll see what happens.

Walker is rescheduling his visit. Not sure what happened

IU gave some BS excuse. I’m guessing they’re slow playing him to see if they get in a good spot with any other guards during the dead period.

Hopefully you mean just players coming, not going. Unless something major changes, seems our departures are done. 

I’d be shocked if anyone else left 

I’m expecting more news to come out this week about players connected to IU. Things will get kicked off with Walker’s visit tomorrow.

Won't be committing to anyone in general, or to IU?  

We’ll see. I doubt he’ll be a real high draft pick this year

Did he commit?

He won’t be committing until probably May. He wants to do NBA workouts first 

Perkins has been trending to IU ever since he entered the portal.

Perkins

Conwell (or another transfer wing shooter)

Tucker

Mgbako

Reneau

I don’t know that Tucker will be a guaranteed starter. I think he might but I’m not sure at this point

What about Leland Walker then? And if Perkins is playing off ball like some have mentioned, then 3 shooting is not going to be improved whatsoever based on Perkins history. Not to beat a dead horse but IU needs shooting!! I am fine with bringing in tough nosed, not turnover prone PGs, but then we've got to 100% bring in some cold stone killer shooters. 

Walker’s not a guarantee to start 

There’s good things being said involving Perkins at the moment

is this guy the 2nd domino to fall even though he would be near the bottom of our roster?

I doubt it but I could be wrong. I’ve heard multiple things on him

are we not interested, or is he using IU top prop up his $?

Looks like he is productive with 35% ish 3pt

NIL IU’s not really in the mix

Clearly guards are the focus but they better add some legit size or it's going to be small ball next season.

Not the worst thing but there will be a couple 4/5’s added

I noticed this as well. I wonder what happened here? 

If I was guessing he go offered a full time gig that he will start once he is done with his grad program. Otherwise he likely would’ve went to Michigan. 

While I would be fine with him as the 13th guy. I would probably prefer a more proven player with the current roster situation
