The thought crossed my mind, but who knows? Going after this kid is one of those things that just seems so obvious and makes so much sense. That’s coming from a fan’s perspective though so we will see. I would bet if it does happen, it happens fast. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would bet if it does happen, it happens fast. He tried P6 basketball once at Missou, and it wasn't a breakout for him... 9 ppg and 30% from 3... But maybe he wants to give it another shot in his last year... Between Sparks and Michael Lewis Woody would surely know what he's getting... If he's willing to come off the bench and put team first, sure ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he's willing to come off the bench and put team first, sure ... Sounds like Lewis is supportive of him transferring: Lewis wished Coleman well in a statement: "As a program we are proud of many of Jarron's accomplishments, but none more than 'Boogie' becoming his family's first college graduate."

I think that’s exactly the type of guy we’re looking for. (We meaning fans and the staff). I don’t think there is any way he would be brought in if he didn’t fit that mold. We obviously don’t know his mindset. I implicitly trust this staff to make that determination if the choose to reach out. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GaloisGroupe Posted August 2, 2023 Report Share Posted August 2, 2023 Maybe as an IU grad, Lewis is positioning BSU as a feeder school for IU. It might be good for BSU as they recruit Indiana with the pitch - come here and if you play really well and improve your stock you can transfer to IU... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My huge worry was that if IU keeps poaching BSU players….. well you know! However if Lewis has a mindset that he’s all for it then my mindset changes!?

Player transferring before ever playing a game because the NIL didn't pan out as he expected, or was told it would. Not saying it's good or bad. But it truly is a business at the college level now.

IowaHoosierFan Posted August 7, 2023 Report Share Posted August 7, 2023 I love that we're in on almost every recruit and transfer these days. We might not get them all or most, but damn its nice to Indiana listed in so many article and recruitment posts. Now, just get to a final 4 and we would explode on the scene 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His numbers were 'meh' at Missouri, but it did stand out to me that after that experience, his Win Shares and turnover numbers were the best of his career. A 5th year combo guard that seems to have started to have it click how to play winning basketball could be a great addition, IMO. I don't think you, me, or anyone else thinks we need him to come in and be a big scorer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
