Paye32 Posted July 11, 2023 Report Share Posted July 11, 2023 Illinois offered 6'7 wing Jaylan Mitchell( Evansville Reitz)today. They were his third D1 offer and first high major offer. Indiana needs to offer and start building the relationship ASAP imo.. This young man is a program changer and he's in our backyard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Common Sense Posted July 11, 2023 Report Share Posted July 11, 2023 (edited) 8th Grader? College program changer? No disrespect. That is just crazy to think about. Edited July 11, 2023 by Common Sense 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd pull a Bob Knight and offer him now before Purdue and the rest of the big boys. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had the principal of Reitz in my Uber a couple of months ago and he told me about him. He said the same thing about him being the real deal. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drroogh Posted July 11, 2023 Report Share Posted July 11, 2023 C’mon! Flory is only months away and nobody has a clue! When does this MUST HAVE BS end?

btownqb Posted July 11, 2023 Report Share Posted July 11, 2023 Zero chance Jordy Hulls just let's a kid from Ev Reitz be poached without us making contact first. We're fine. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Proud2BAHoosier Posted July 11, 2023 Report Share Posted July 11, 2023 I live in Evansville and I have not heard of the kid. IU may be a little skittish offering a kid from Reitz. No disrespect, but the last kid from there, didn't pan out too well. Remember him? Initials were CL and was supposed to be a 5 star, just sayin'.....

Paye32 Posted July 12, 2023 Author Report Share Posted July 12, 2023 Fyi..Arizona State offered Mitchell today. I'm guessing the IU offer comes pretty quick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BADGERVOL Posted July 12, 2023 Report Share Posted July 12, 2023 There was a kid from I think Merriville (sp?) back in the early 90s that as a frosh and soph was a top 10 player in his class. By jr year he dropped like a lead balloon. Senior year dropped even more. Wish I remembered his name. He was a 6’8” PF. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thinknwe are in a position where if we are making good contact, we don't have to offer. Illinois and ASU do. If this kid really blows up, the Kentucky, Kansas, and Duke's of the world will swoop in and start offering his Sophomore and Junior year. With an in state kid, we should be on that same kind of schedule. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
