Adam's been pretty spot on, or whatever you'd call it, the last 2-3 weeks. I see what you're saying.🙏 That's a nasty top 8, if so. Leal, Newton, Cupps-- 2 to go? Man we'd be in a good spot. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've beeen pretty hesitant to question "in game coaching", "style of play" because of roster deficiencies... some by our own doing, regardless, pressure is on now. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m not talking about a healthy X either. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m a huge believer that the college game is a guards game. And we haven’t had the guards necessary since Yogi, which means the Crean era. Just one man’s opinion and philosophy on basketball. X was too inconsistent in his play for my liking to consider IU a top 10-12 team. Also the lack of shooting and true post size. TJD was great but undersized. Saw that vs Arizona for sure. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would say they were a consensus top "teen" or 20. I don't think top 10. That would have been a stretch. And I would agree. Basketball is always about guard play and we haven't had a lot of those the past few seasons. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let me try getting intel from my buddy that coaches at UNF on how good Anderson actually is. i asked him the following: Me: So rumor is Zach Anderson might be committing to IU. Is he power 5 talent especially in a bench role??? Him: Yeah I think he will be a good bench talent. We had a kid on a visit this weekend that actually visited Indiana a couple weeks ago Diamant Blazi. Me: Is Zach Anderson a good kid or how is his reputation? Him: Zach is a great kid…we have known him since 7th grade. We tried hard to get him but already had other guys in his position. sounds like we might get a good one and they might get Blazi. If they develop Blazi like I think they can that could be good for IU down the road if he liked us on our visit. For those who don’t know UNF’s head coach was a long time top assistant for Drew at Baylor. Edited April 21 by IUfaninIllinois 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DC2345 Posted April 22 Report Share Posted April 22 4 hours ago, Indykev said: the smoke was from the pot being smoked on campus during little 5. kid was visiting his brother. That was really what I personally thought but other people were saying there was something to it. I think it’s because of the vague clues about a senior that’s going to enter the portal that’s a shooter that is supposedly a done deal to IU but he hasn’t yet entered the portal.

jay edwards brother Posted April 22 Report Share Posted April 22 Personally I say take Zach Anderson if he is ready to commit. Don't slow roll him to wait on some mystery guy. Take him before he leaves campus. We saw how that worked out last year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
