    I would rather us not get anymore OAD players as well.  I would take the low 5 star or high 4 star players who will stay a few years like have at UNC.  Until this year UNC had not had many OAD players and have won a lot with those type of players.  I want to build our roster the way UVA and Villanova as well because it is easier to stay on top.

    So if Leal would happen to come in and go absolutely bonkers his freshman year, which would be completely unexpected by everyone, and he chose to enter the draft, would that be held against him in your eyes?  He wouldn't have intended to be a OAD.  Should he pass up millions because he doesnt want people to feel like he was using IU as a 9 month internship?

     

    I know you are speaking more of the Duke/UK type, just playing devils advocate a lil bit.

    Let's just hypothetically for this upcoming season we finish in the 8-10 range of the B1G, win 1 in the B1G tournament, and miss the NCAA tournament again. Who would have had the better IU career? Deron Davis or Victor Oladipo? I would take what Vic did every day of the week without hesitation.

    ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________

    Besides the wikipedia excerpt below on Vic, helped us win our first outright Conference Championship in 20 years.

    He was named the Sporting News Men's College Basketball Player of the Year, the Co-NABC Defensive Player of the Year, and a first-team All-American by the USBWA and Sporting News. That year he was also named the winner of the Adolph Rupp Trophy, given annually to the top player in men's NCAA Division I basketball. Oladipo was drafted with the second overall pick in the 2013 NBA draft 

    Would you rather "sleep" with Gal Gadot or get kicked in the twig n giggle berries  by Carli Lloyd????  Both women would be paying attention to the same area, but one of these things is not like the other.....

    When is the last time there was no inside info that a player was going to commit? Typically someone always mentions before a player commits a little hint but in this case he surprised everyone!!!!

    There wasnt really time for anything to come out was there??  

    If and (hopefully when) he proves to be a stud how long will it take for people to be talking about "the large bag of cash CAM gave him while he was on his visit?" 🤔🤔

    Just looked him up.  6 years with the Twins, 3 months with the Indians and the last 13 years as a scout for the A's.  Not sure about the time between.

    It would be awesome to see a really great two sport star shine at IU.

    Outside of soccer and swimming.....can we just get several great one sport stars to shine at IU???  We've  had some fizzle and spark a little bit lately.  We keep getting bottle rockets and we need some Chinese New Year $h!t!!! 🎆🎆🎆🎆🎆🎆🎆🎆
