I agree. I think that the national thought is Page or Booker but I don't think Indiana has ever thought of it that way 

I think that's why the recent CB picks for Booker as many expect Page to IU. The Booker camp keeping things pretty quiet

Rivals article says 2 horse race Michigan State and Gonzaga.

I still don’t see the athleticism. He fails to separate off the dribble which results in lots of contested jumpers (although he seems to have a knack for hitting difficult shots). I don’t see a lot of lift in his jumper nor when he attacks the rim. He has some nifty crossovers and step backs that he absolutely needs to free him up because he can’t get past anyone. To me he plays a lot like Miller Kopp. Perhaps will be better shooter but he is definitely a guy that needs someone to help him get looks….and given our guards…I can see how he would fit. But athletic…not in the traditional basketball sense.

Well that sounds promising!

I think we have a great chance for both players.

Hopeful we can get Page to commit this week.

So summing up 2023...

We already have Cupps and Newton committed...

By my count, we'll have 4 scholarships available (TJD, Race, XJ, and Kopp leaving)

So that leaves 2 open...

If Page commits, does that take us out of the Booker sweepstakes?

And from what I've read on here, most would prefer Kaiser over Harris-Smith, correct?

Or will we play the "oversign" game (I hope not)... 

 

We are out of Booker sweepstakes already.

From all accounts i've read, this is the only kid Woodson has seen. Only assistants on the road it seems.

Woody doesn't recruit.Why the class we have coming in sucks!

Better take Carr now!!

Looks like Mike Giomi. Another player from the past.

I hope this next year sees a giant leap for Tamar Bates.  I'm a little bearish based on what I saw last season (not much, frankly), but I'm encouraged by the chatter.  Hopefully, Bates stops screwing around and gets serious about basketball and his education.  If he does, I expect great things from him.  If he doesn't, I'm OK with seeing him in the transfer portal.

Agree Bates has to play ALOT better!!

I lose track of who is discussed where on this board.

Anyway, Dexter Dennis is announcing tomorrow at 4 pm, per a short mention from our hard-working member The Daily Hoosier.

Not going to Indiana.If Trayce goes pro we get no one from portal.Too late in the game for any impact player.Team is set for next year.No defensive stopper on team will be the weakness next year.Could still be a better team.

All above in first post.

Sounds like Texas Tech will be banned from college basketball.I guess they deserve it!!

To who?

NIL will ruin college sports.Football will be hit worse.Too many football coaches saying it will hurt the college game.

Teams with most money wins!NBA LITE.

Looking forward to Dexter Dennis shutting him down 

Don't think we will get Dennis now.

Just from highlights and knowing Dennis was conference DPOY..... he would have been our best wing last year. 

Agree easily our best wing.Would be a upgrade!

Just wondering once the semester is over we see any other IU player on the portal.  With Dennis coming for a visit itakes you wonder if any other wing player is leaving.  With Bates,JHS, Galloway,Kopp and Leal it doesn't appear that a wing player is a need.

If you want to win next year it is a need.Top flight defender and can create own shot to open floor.

Imagine what woody and staff could blossom him into…

Not going to happen

The bagmen make it worse not better.Big schools will clean up.Where the big money is that will be your winning programs.Pro sports on a smaller level.Sad.

I also wouldn't discount JHS getting Rob's minutes.  I feel like JHS is going to play just as good of defense as Rob, but actually provide a consistent offensive game as well. Nothing flashy, but an important role.

JHS will get his own minutes starter from day one!!
