BADGERVOL Posted October 29, 2023 Report Share Posted October 29, 2023 (edited) 🤔 interesting it always happens…guys pop up 247 has him ranked as a 4 star and 7th best PG for 2024 Edited October 29, 2023 by BADGERVOL 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KDB Posted October 29, 2023 Report Share Posted October 29, 2023 This is why the sky is not falling when we miss out on someone. It’s October and we’re already seeing a decommit that it sounds like we’re going to be involved with. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KDB Posted October 29, 2023 Report Share Posted October 29, 2023 The last sentence could be a hint that this will be quick.. Combine that with the fact he only mentions us - we might be the favorite and it might happen quickly. Also, Trilly replied to that with "You're gonna get somebody in trouble for this, Joe." 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DC2345 Posted October 29, 2023 Report Share Posted October 29, 2023 (edited) Makes me think there’s been some prior communication of some kind. I like it and this kid has plenty of connections to Kenya and Ya from what I can tell. Edited October 29, 2023 by DC2345 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So we miss on Fland. Backchannel to this kids family that we might be interested if he decommits, he decommits, and now we'll find. I do like the idea of larger guards, PG's,etc...we saw how much they meant in our matchups vs Purdue. If our staff likes him cool but admittedly I prefer to start having larger guards. Ever since IU/Cuse I don't want to ever have a backcourt of 6'0 and under guys. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drroogh Posted October 29, 2023 Report Share Posted October 29, 2023 (edited) Just gut feeling but this seems more like plan B? I’m thinking plan A as it stands is wait till spring for Sanon or someone else who becomes available?

Hoosierfan1901 Posted October 29, 2023 Author Report Share Posted October 29, 2023 Maryland was pretty involved this one too, he had them in his Top 4. I did see something on the 247 board for Providence that other teams were trying to get him to decommit and offering more money Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also Sanon is a wing and not a PG Edited October 29, 2023 by DC2345 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post DC2345 Posted October 29, 2023 Popular Post Report Share Posted October 29, 2023 Keep in mind that IU will likely need 5-7 new players for next years roster. Relying on the portal for all of that isn’t a great idea. 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dgambill Posted October 29, 2023 Report Share Posted October 29, 2023 Very small guard. Not sure I believe he is 6’1. Not saying he is not good but a considerable drop off from Fland. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maedhros Posted October 29, 2023 Report Share Posted October 29, 2023 Baltimore native. Played with Derik Queen at St Francis in '20-21. Just saying... 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not saying he is not good but a considerable drop off from Fland. He’s a smaller guard but in the video I watched from Peach Jam he was smaller than Harper but he did have good strength. Last time I checked IU did pretty well with a shorter well put together PG a few years ago. Pack at Kansas State for the same mold. If a guy can play he can play. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DC2345 Posted October 29, 2023 Report Share Posted October 29, 2023 (edited) Not saying that there’s anything to it but guess who Davis played his freshman year of HS with in Baltimore… Derrick Queen Edited October 29, 2023 by DC2345 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BADGERVOL Posted October 29, 2023 Report Share Posted October 29, 2023 Idc the height as much at PG if he’s a match up nightmare himself. We have bigs to back him at the rim just stay in front of your man. I grew up in the Earl Boykins era…sorry but I’d take an Earl on this team RIGHT NOW even at 5’5” Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BADGERVOL Posted October 29, 2023 Report Share Posted October 29, 2023 I’d add if he’s solid as a frosh then likely we have him for 2-3 years. Yes please. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some of the top PG’s in college basketball this year will be 6’1 or shorter. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ya has a connection to OTE where Davis is playing. Kenya has a connection to Team Takeover which is who Davis played AAU with. X also played for Team Takeover. Then he is obviously from Baltimore and a former HS teammate of Queen’s. I could see him coming to IU regardless of what Queen decides. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
