Dusty banners or not the Fab 5 made Michigan cool imo. Besides being pretty dang good the fashion statement they made even resonated with me back then. I started wearing long shorts and short colored socks. BTW...I am 56. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 30-30 ESPN show on them kinda puts them in a Dr Dre light as being pioneers of the hip-hop culture... That's cool even to the younger crowd... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You would be hard pressed to find a guy who did less with more in the country last year. He's close, but Penny Hardaway and Patrick Ewing are the recent runaway winners in that category. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FKIM01 Posted July 18, 2023 Report Share Posted July 18, 2023 6 hours ago, IUFLA said: Wonder what these words from Hunter Dickinson will mean to future recruits... "Dickinson downplayed the tactics of U of M’s head coach Juwan Howard, stating that his practices were not challenging enough. I’d say they were definitely harder than Michigan, especially at this point. I mean, Michigan — wouldn’t even get the campus to like to July 1. So had way more of a head start here,” Dickinson said. “But I remember the first couple of practices, I was so out of shape and I felt like coming in I was in pretty solid shape, but no, I needed a lot more growth in that area.” Link "...arguably the best college basketball player to ever enter the transfer portal." 🤣🤣🤣...not a surprising take from a Fansided writer. He's much more likely the biggest douchebag to ever enter the transfer portal. There's probably some truth to his criticisms, but come on, man...do you have to be such a punchable douchebag? I personally hope he sucks at Kansas just because. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I personally hope he sucks at Kansas just because. I've never liked Dickinson because he's a dirty player and a punk... I never had a beef with Kansas until last year when they beat us, and then their haughty attitude during the Mgbako recruitment (and the subsequent back stroking was hilarious)... But they're right in there with Kentucky, Purdue, and Illinois now as far as I'm concerned... I hope we give them a total beatdown in SSAH this year... 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And unofficial visits nothing could be paid for by the University. Has that changed? or am I off base? You’re right, but I’m sure there are loopholes. No way that kid paid for tickets behind the bench on any of the trips that followed his official. And he visited a bunch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's no way he visited indiana so many times and paid for all of the trips etc. himself. Regardless the amount of times he visited and not to even be considered? Weird. I'm not hurt by it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, makes no sense unless he was just using IU. Odd, kind of disrespectful really to visit that many times without true interest. But who knows, maybe Woody told him a while back that he had “x” amount of time to decide or we were moving on and Flory wasn’t ready to decide. The whole thing from our perspective/without knowing behind the scene details is just weird. Edited July 19, 2023 by kyhoosier29 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danomatic Posted July 19, 2023 Report Share Posted July 19, 2023 I’m obviously not saying that this happened, but is it possible that something changed on our end recently? As in, perhaps our staff decided not to prioritize Flory, and felt more comfortable moving forward with Queen? All smoke and mirrors here, but I haven’t the slightest idea how we don’t make his final four unless we backed off. I really won’t pretend to know anything about this recruitment, other than things ended weird. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The appeal of Duke will wear off eventually, if they don’t continue to have the success under Scheyer that they had under coach K. Not to mention they play in a glorified HS gym, and facilities do matter. They’ve gotten by on the ESPN hype of “Cameron Indoor”, but that will wear off too. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
