See for yourself... You need to be a bit more specific in who you think we should target... Maybe Brandon Newman? I mean, if he's good with a reserve role, maybe he could provide minutes similar to what Anthony Walker provides in the frontcourt? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ten minutes per game from a veteran guard would be great, I’d be thrilled. Jenkins played BEHIND 2 freshmen... Didn't take minutes from them (or potentially Gunn)... We recruited (or kept them) to play... Let them have a shot... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not aware of any targets right now... I'm sure we'd have heard something if there was an interest in a certain kid... After the May 31st NBA pullout date maybe we'll hear something...

BobSaccamanno Posted May 16, 2023 Report Share Posted May 16, 2023 I think we can be super selective with that last scholly. We can be surgical to get the right guy. A guy who can shoot, defend and handle some. I don’t care if he starts or backs up. Holding that scholly in reserve well into the summer might be savvy. You never know who falls out of the sky. A grad transfer can occur any time. A European. Personally, I suspect a grad transfer is the most logical scenario and Woody would want one more reliable shooter. 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm betting there's going to be one....possibly two guys that we're going to get irrationally excited about in the next month. I did hear speculation on a podcast that they *think* the staff has some guys targeted that are going through the draft process. I just wish I could remember which podcast - I listen to way too many IU podcasts. Edited May 16, 2023 by tdhoosier 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are kids who've declared, but not entered the portal which indicates if they do pull out, they'll return to their former team... And then there are kids who entered the draft AND the portal which indicates if they do pull out, they're free agents... That'd be our list... I've tried to find a comprehensive list of those kids, but most sites group them all together... Still looking... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guys who are in the draft and not in the portal, but could be a grad transfer. I doubt that concept would be listed yet though. But the program may have some ideas. We know barely the surface of what they know behind the scenes, obviously. Edited May 16, 2023 by BobSaccamanno 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post tdhoosier Posted May 17, 2023 Popular Post Report Share Posted May 17, 2023 Kenya said on his Hoosier Hysterics interview that they are going to hold on to that scholarship until a good opportunity arises. (They're going to be stingy with it.) This opportunity will most likely come from players testing out the draft waters. Don't expect any news for a couple of weeks. Plus, the staff is going on vacation. *paraphrased. 8 11 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IowaHoosierFan Posted May 17, 2023 Report Share Posted May 17, 2023 We're holding that last one for JHS when he announces he is coming back to IU for another year after getting great feedback from the combine and coach Woodson. We're winning a Natty this year. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You have to question a kid's intelligence after picking to go to school in Riverside.
