They probably double teamed him the entire time too

Yeah I was dumb and didn’t read all of the comments first 😂😂😂

Except if Armaan isn’t ready for NBA then he gets an extra year so Gunn will then be a sophmore

I agree but I’m saying it’s ok if CJ Gunn isn’t a pure shooter because of his ability to drive.

The thing is next year I think Leal is our deadly shooter... plus we have Stewart who can also shoot em... we need a guy who is just a complete stud at driving and it will open up the 3s for Leal and Stewart and evening RP.

To me Kaufman is the only one in Indiana that we lost out on. We ended up recruiting nobody else in Indiana besides him. We stopped on Furst and Wesley. Isn’t the quote get old and stay old? I’d rather have a 22 year old player with two years of eligibility who has had success in the ACC and now has motivation to make his dad proud compared to a freshman that has to adjust to being in college for the first 2 years potentially before he makes an impact. I understand Lander is in the 2020 class because he reclassified but we didn’t recruit his position in 2021 because he reclassified early so there wasn’t a need for it. We also lost a coach right in the middle of recruiting that hurt us in recruiting some out of state players and hunter didn’t have time to make a difference on 2021 class. We can get 2 more grad transfers after we see our needs because trust me Kids will transfer since they are guaranteed to be able to play immediately without a waiver. So just wait to see what transfers we get before judging if the class was a fail. The problem with IU fans is they want results Now Now Now. Recruiting is Hard y’all. Also we want shooters and need shooters yet the top guys in Indiana are not shooters. It can’t go both ways to say recruit Indiana high school players first but we have to get shooters. The “shooters” in the class of 2021 didn’t even get power 5 offers. If Archie took Luke Brown who went to Stetson people would complain he is now pulling a Crean and then it wouldn’t leave open spots for guys like Stewart to come in late. Also. There is so much behind the scenes stuff that none of us even know about. Corrupt things still happen, kids get in trouble and it’s never released to the public, kids change their mind, parents influence the decision. I guarantee none of us could do better and we would all be fired by now. Also don’t y’all realize if we fire our coach that we start all over again. Next year will be the first year that Archie has HIS guys only and that’s assuming Durham doesn’t stay. Archie in year 5 and 6 will be better than whatever coach is here in year 1 and 2 and then y’all will complain again for wanting a coach after year 4 if that player doesn’t have success. Can you imagine if Villanova gave up on Jay Wright or Duke gave up on Coach K after 4 years? Or Virginia gave up on Tony Bennett after they lost to a 16 seed.

Just because they are high rated doesn’t mean they are worth getting. Furst got absolutely dominated by Duncomb. You really think that Furst is that good? If he is #2 ranked Indiana high school player then it’s a complete down year.

To me I’ll take Duncomb 7 days a week over Furst. I think the only person worth recruiting in the 2021 class was Kaufman. Furst is big and scores points but that’s in high school. To me he is going to be overwhelmed and outmatched and not be that good in the big ten. So Purdue is up 1-0 on Indiana recruits this year only and as good as Kaufman is I might want an older grad transfer like Stewart compared to a freshman Kaufman. Stewart doesn’t come here if Kaufman is here IMO

Don’t forget a 2022 can always reclassify to fill those voids. To me unless Brunk doesn’t want to play overseas he comes back next year to showcase himself

You are spot on sir

This is something Mile would say 😢😢😢

Hahahahaha true

But we don’t because every single player gets this year free so we actually can pretend that all of the freshmen are redshirt freshmen. So technically next year besides Duncomb we are technically getting Leal, Geronimo, Galloway, and Lander. That’s a 5 kid recruiting class haha.

I don’t think we know because of the free year. Transfers and Brunk and or Durham coming back etc

I 1000% agree. I’m soooo freaking tired of all of these “fans” being babies because we didn’t get a couple recruits. In the 2021 in state class there was literally 1 or maybe 2 players I wanted everyone else to me wasn’t worth it... they also are forgetting that our 2020 class was loaded and 3 of the 4 are 4 year players. People need to chill out and stop worrying. In the words of Aaron Rodgers R-E-L-A-X

Why are you an Indiana fan? I haven’t seen you say anything positive at all ever about Indiana. Instead of being so negative why don’t you try just letting situations play out.

I’ve said this multiple times and I will continue to say it. I love CAM but I do put this on him. His strategy is to let the assistant coaches be the lead recruits and then he is the closer even when it’s on big time recruits. AM is a top 15 player and CAM didn’t even start building a relationship until recently. People ask how Howard is getting all of these recruits to commit and other coaches too and it’s all about the head coach establishing the relationship early.

That was my goal lol

Hey at least I’m not 5fouls and married after my first marriage... I’ve stuck with one and if it ever ends then never again 😂😂😂

Hahahah 🤦🏻‍♂️ I’m a dummy I thought Korver was a 1st Round pick lmao!!!!

In regards to MM. being the guy means nothing if it doesn’t give you a great chance to get drafted high in the NBA draft. There have been only two first round draft picks for Creighton since 1985 and both of them were stone cold killer shooters. MM is not that and going to Creighton doesn’t give him the chances of getting drafted high like at IU no matter how relevant IU is or not.

Just reading the article I get this sneaky suspicion he really likes IU and could be our first commitment of 2022.... ignore this I was thinking of C.J. Gunn

A couple questions here... 1. Indiana is almost never the first major offer so what changed with this kid... someone in his range (because rankings do matter in offers) is where Indiana always waits to make an offer especially with them having way more targets at that position for 2021 and 2022. 2. is this someone who is low because of his points but could skyrocket as he develops with the reclassification? 3. what’s your first impressions of him?

Especially because smith is most likely a 4 year PG

Did he grow up a big IU fan and that’s his dream school just like Jordy?
