Is that true for every foreign country? I know nada about international taxation, but would assume that it's not a U.S. tax code issue?

But there hasn't been a year in recent memory where the on court results matched the pre-season hype for IU. All I'm saying is that I see no reason to believe next year will be any different. Yes, there was a talent deficiency last year in the backcourt, but the bigger issue is a schematic deficiency that isn't going away. Again, happy to be proven wrong in time. But I don't think I will be. Respect your opinion but I’m of the total opposite belief that system is the bigger problem over talent. Our guards have been dreadful since Cream left. That includes Romeo, bc he played hurt. X was never the answer either. We haven’t had a top PG since Yogi. I think Carlyle is a great fit if his shooting improves. Which freshman to soph jump for a good FT shooter is a very good indication he will be a mid 30’s% from 3 next year. Rice projects even better from deep. Both are tremendous athletes that can finish at the rim AND then also finish the old fashion 3pt play by actually making g their FT’s. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I saw the disclaimer after I posted the question while I was catching up. Me neither, but I'm leaning toward country-specific issue. For Edey, I'm guessing it was a Canada taxation issue. That being said, smart accountants figure stuff like that out all the time and plenty of foreign citizens make $$$ in the U.S., so maybe Edey just had insufficient or bad advice. I have a hard time believing that he absolutely could not make U.S. NIL $$$. It's more likely that he didn't want to screw with the taxation issues involved.

5 championships Posted April 12 Report Share Posted April 12 Love the upgrades at Guard! We will significantly be better than last year with this new backcourt but at the same time with Woody’s system on both sides of the ball it limits the overall upside of this team. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BobSaccamanno Posted April 12 Report Share Posted April 12 If I’m Conwell, I’m thinking I am starting at IU. Woody would love him. Tough kid and will go get some boards too. Competitor. Recruit like Knight. Get the right talent and have them compete. He had Edwards, Jones and Meeks and still brought in Reynolds, Greg G., Pat G and Leary one year and then Bailey. Cignetti is doing it. We have like 7 fairly proven running backs and more receivers. Battle it out and let’s go. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BobSaccamanno Posted April 12 Report Share Posted April 12 @Andrew and @DC2345 is Blazi out of the mix? Did we offer? If you Google him and see his social media he sure doesn’t seem locked in. I could see him scaring coaches off. We have no idea how he is in a meeting. If he gave me a flighty vibe, I’d pass. But if he seems serious, the athleticism could be interesting with maybe a redshirt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IU Scott Posted April 12 Report Share Posted April 12 I was wondering if we would get commitments from 3 guards would one of our current guards decide to enter the portal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Between2Halls Posted April 12 Report Share Posted April 12 I’m excited, but I find myself cautiously optimistic. I got excited about some portal names last year that didn’t pan out. Really hoping for some official announcements soon. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IUfaninIllinois Posted April 12 Author Report Share Posted April 12 5 hours ago, IUProfessor said: In my mind, that's what a starting lineup of Rice-Carlyle-Mgbako-Reneau-Ballo would represent. Just to be clear, I think Rice is a great target, and expect that he will improve his 3 point shooting in time. I don't see Carlyle as a great fit with this roster, especially at the expense of a great all-around talent like Conwell. Ballo is a pass for me, I don't think he and Reneau will pair well together for a coherent, high level offense. If we got Ballo I could see them starting together but then Woodson staggering them a little plus if Reneau can’t fix foul problems it won’t matter much anyways. I feel like he played Ware and Reneau together at times but towards the end started staggering them more. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
