I agree.  I don't think these boycotts are going to really help anything. No NBA then I'll watch Netflix or Hulu or Spike Cohen or HBOmax not Lebron or the NBA players.   

I have not watched the nba in years and  whatever lebron worth hundreds of millions  can continue his trashy twitter posts.  He acts like people will be devestated without the nba.lol its just a game.

I just don't see how our 2020 recruiting has any similarities to Crean.  Looking at our offer list, is there one recruit that we wouldn't be excited about getting if they were to commit.  That in itself seems opposite of some of Crean's recruiting strategies.

I think we are likely going to have to take guys ranked outside the top 100 as there just does not seem to be much traction for any top 75 ranked  players coming to IU. I think last year really hurt us bad in recruiting.

Maybe it’s just me, but I’m kind of getting Crean flashbacks with our approach to this 2020 class.

Yep

One of the most asinine, moronic posts that I have ever read. You will never get a player if you don't invest the time. He has been on campus several times on his own dime and has already built a good relationship with this staff. You COMPLAIN about the program not being where you think it should be but criticize actions taken to make it to that place. So, you have the ears of the fellow posters on this forum...let's hear your manifesto on how to get this program back to the level of your expectations. C'mon your turn. Wweeellll we're waiting!

I said most of his time. I never said do not recruit him.

So now you're fine settling for lesser recruits?  Tomorrow, you'll probably be criticizing Archie for not trying and letting Lander get away.

If he feels confident he can beat the likes of Kentucky and Duke for him then by all means invest the time.

Just like Archie shouldn't have wasted time on Romeo?

We likely would never of goeen  Romeo if UL did not the the scandal they had. At that point it was worth going after him and Archie was the new shiny coach at the time.  He can spen a ton of tmie going after Lander I am just saying he will be competing with Michigan State, UL, Duke, Kentucky, etc.

I hope Archie does not waste most of his time on Lander and instead goes after the other guys. Lander will have Kentucky and all the top dogs after him so it will be very difficult to land him imo.

Given the recent spate of bad recruiting news, locking down the state in 2021 is looking like it may be even more critical for CAM's long-term prospects than originally thought...

If Archie does not have a good year next season and make the NCAA the 2021 class likely is not going to matter for him anyway. It all comes down to next season.
