Having said that, nothing leaked officially with Ware but everyone just assumed IU and he ended up announcing before he was scheduled to. I somewhat think that might happen if he is going to Kansas - at some point human nature takes over and if everyone assumes you're going to Kansas and you are going to Kansas, you just say "yeah I'm going to Kansas". Long way of saying, the longer the silence of actual info remains, the more I like it for us.Ā 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The basketball world has been conditioned by the last 3 decades of IU basketball. People need to start giving CMW and staff some respect!

I think your theory makes sense, but I also think it's fair to ask, 'why aren't Kansas guys following him if he is going there?"Ā The most interesting part of all the social media stuff with regard to MM, in my opinion, is his mom following Carmelo Anthony. That's a HOF former Mike Woodson player at the same position as MM, who is not the parent of a Mike Woodson recruit.Ā 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
94Bulldog Posted May 11, 2023 Report Share Posted May 11, 2023 I have no sources. Ā What I do know is that Louisville was supposedly the favorite. Ā He visits Kansas, despite a bunch of commit and cancel IU trip rumors, neither happens. Ā He goes to IU, the Louisville trip gets cancelled, officially announces its down to IU and Kansas. Letās IU do a somewhat cheesy video with him and CMW, that isnāt cheesy if he commits to IU. Ā Add in guaranteed playing time and if these Kansas crystal ballers are picking on gut instinct, I think their gut is wrong. Ā Using common sense and the timeline facts Iām not sure how anyone can draw any other conclusion? 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
