If I remember correctly, I'd say he's a smaller Miller Kopp. But a better shooter. Hope we get a backup Big, but if Hemenway is the 13th guy, I'm stoked. Dude can light it up. To hell with your McDAA’s, we’re going to have a Nobel Prize winner playing. Huh? Oh, Hemenway, not Hemingway. Never mind. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seeking6 Posted April 27 Report Share Posted April 27 So we have 2 left. 1 has to be an athletic big or whatever for depth. The other? I know, I know, I know....but wouldn't mind holding onto that last ship until we see what the NBA draft camps produce. I mean Mackenzie didn't commit to us until mid May last Spring. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At this point we have enough talent and no glaring holes I’m not sure if any one of those guys would even take a second look at IU. They aren’t coming to IU to share minutes. They want to go somewhere to play 30+ and be 1-2 option. I say solidify the roster now if there are options. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Between2Halls Posted April 27 Report Share Posted April 27 I’ll be pretty surprised to see much else happen for us at this point. I am very pleased with the five additions, and I’ll admit it has been far better than I expected. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I'd love to round out the roster with the Hemenway kid if he passes the health tests... 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There should be around 15 minutes available. Can't roll with Malik or MM at the 5 if Ballo gets hurt or sick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Him and Ryan Conwell. But we had a good plan and we are executing on it. Maybe you don’t get Rice if you don’t get Carylye. Etc. Can’t get everyone and Goode was a nice fit. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IUfaninIllinois Posted April 28 Author Report Share Posted April 28 I think our 13th scholarship is someone willing to redshirt or ok with not playing a lot of minutes next year with the expectation lots of minutes will open up year after next. We currently have 6 open scholarships after next year and let’s say we add AH that’s 7 and then let’s say Reneau, rice, Carlyle, MM all leave that’s 11 open spots. I really think not adding someone with eligibility left is a mistake. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If not there is no playing time for another guard or wing From reliable people on the Trilly discord, they have said Hemenway to IU is essentially a lock at this point. I only say reliable bc they have some ins with the program and have been spot on with everything this portal season. My assumption is we get a visit and commit this next week. Last spot is reserved for a backup big. Edited April 28 by Bville_Hoosier 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we’re needing to teach him not to travel after 4 years of college ball, no way should we be recruiting this guy. He’s a project but as a senior. Pass on this kid all day. Give me Toumi or Meah instead of Nik. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Victobmyboy Posted April 28 Report Share Posted April 28 He’s a fit. One year guy wanting grad school. Hes a dead eye shooter too. You take him even if the plan was to hold that 13th spot. P5 players that actually play. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
