Good question, I was thinking about poating it....

I Googled "poating" and wish I didn't.

Just for fun:

Some rumors circulating that Luke Brown might be leaving Stetson.

This should be good for 40 pages from that one poster alone.

Is Sisley athletic enough and have sufficient range to play a prototypical 4 in Woodson's system? Or is he more of a low post presence?

As a sophomore, he shot 41% from three, 65% overall.  TheDailyHoosier said he plays the 4 and 5 now out of necessity for his high school team, but prefers playing wing in AAU. 

Averaged 26 points, 10 rebounds, 3 assists per game.

Gabe Cupps final game:  22 points, 7 assists, 1 TO.

Final year stats:

15.4p;  4.6r;  6.1a;  2.2s;  1.9to         49% FG;  39% on 3s;  91% FT

It will be SO nice to have a 90% free throw shooter on the team.  Maybe he can teach correct form to others.

Some of you are trying to make it sound like I'm against taking ANY transfers. I'm not.

I would expect CMW to be aggressive, and bring in the best available players, even if it means recruiting over guys on the current roster.

It's Woodson's job to bring in the best players and field the best team every year. 

It's each player's job to be good enough to start or play.

I sure hope IU doesn't not recruit someone because a current player might be unhappy with competition.

I just look forward to not hearing (Edey's) name or see his goofy mug.

"It's even more comical they think they can write a blank check and get whoever they want. Not gonna happen."

You know Purdue fans that think that? Lol

Took me 1 minute to find these on the Purdue board, so yes, we do know:

"Too many at Purdue believe We can’t do better than Painter. I say BS. Get out the checkbook and see who’s interested."

"We need a new coach. Back up the truck and hire Shaka."

If healthy 09-10 Purdue team of consisting of juniors Hummel, Moore, and Johnson would have abused this team. And god forbid we forgot about the 93-94 team with Glenn Robinson. 

"If healthy" and IU has 10 or 12 banners.

This will hang proudly next to the Helms Banner.

Edey couldn't hold on to the ball for the last 11 - 12 minutes.

That's how long he stays in the paint on one possession.

Hopefully @Steubenhoosier now realizes I don’t just show up during the good times lol. 

But this IS one of the good times!  We're having a blast!

Graphic apparently does not recognize the Helms Foundation.

To be fair, people can look directly at the banner and not recognize it.

Trivia:  it was retroactively awarded in 1943 for the 1932 team.

That '86 loss was a bitter pill to swallow.  I still think about Mouse McFadden to this day.

It was the 1988 Richmond Spiders beating the defending national champion Indiana team for me.  That seemed to be when teams stopped fearing us, and Knight lost some of his aura.

Butler has had four guys enter the portal.

Wilmouth, Tate, Pierce, and Taylor.

Sounds like a law firm.

Potential big target?

 

6'9" 230.  Shoots 60% from the field, with almost no 3-pointers.

YES! 

Finally, a big who we don't have to argue about being a 3 or a stretch 4.  This would save the board about 700 back-and-forth posts.

I think it’s about our inability to deal with guards like Boo and Pickett. Apparently KSU’s guards are considered similar?

Boo Pickett had a #1 country album in 1966. 

The man could play.

"Fallsdog" is the Kent State version of our IUFLA pregame analysis expert.  His main post is on the second page, 6th post down.

Respectful of Indiana, but they're not conceding anything.

This site gives us a less than 1% chance for Flory.

I have a hard time reconciling this with the fact that he is still visiting Indiana, and enjoying his time with players and other recruits.

The IU staff thinks this is worth the effort.  We'll see.

Maybe he just handles the ball well?  I have never heard of him.

He could be terrific. 

I just think we need to recruit more Luka Doncic, Giannis Antetokounmpo, and Steph Curry type players. 

That doesn't seem too much to ask for.

Edit:  I also don't think it should ever snow in Wisconsin, someone should give me a free Corvette every month, and there should be no mosquitoes anywhere.  All totally realistic goals.

Perimeter skills?

3-pointers last season:  10%.

free throws:  62%.

But overall last season:  around 9 points and 6 rebounds per game, with 55% from two.

Stats:  played 30 minutes per game as a 6'4" 200 lb freshman.  Started 24 of 28 games.  Averaged 11 points, 3 rebounds.

47% 2-point shooting.  Just under 30% from three.  42% overall. 

Under 64% free throws (ouch).

Lots of offers coming out of HS, including Duke, and several east coast schools.  None from IU.

Here is the Kent State fan forum.  They do not like the idea of going against Trayce and JHS.

So far in their thread, they seem like pretty good fans.
