So it seems like his future has already been discussed/decided, but who knows if he’s going to get a scholarship or not. Thanks for sharing. Kind of makes you wonder if folks inside the department still monitor all the sites. Haha...looks like McRoberts and his family are fine with whatever course IU and Archie choose. No more debate necessary on whether he has earned a ship or if it kills morale by not giving him one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't question Archie, but that doesn't say they had discussed him having a scholarship already. I will question Archie if McRoberts doesn't get a scholarship.

cohete15 Posted February 13, 2018 Report Share Posted February 13, 2018 Does anyone know if Zach is on any academic scholarship? I believe he was academic All-B1G last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are reasons to question Archie is he doesn't offer McRoberts a scholarship. Questioning people for how they do things is a good thing that should be done. I'm not worried about it anymore than I worry about anything else with regards to IU and I recognize I may not have all the information if he doesn't get one and that it should temper my reaction, but that doesn't mean things shouldn't be questioned. We should all question many, many things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seeking6 Posted February 13, 2018 Report Share Posted February 13, 2018 No doubt it's good to ask questions. We love our program so healthy debate is always good. Talking though in absolutes i.e. saying there's a problem with Archie if he doesn't give him a scholarship is the antithesis of debate. It says or reads he better do it or else. Either way. McRoberts family is good. IU is building momentum. McRoberts is a guy next year that can help us out for 2-3 years to come. Every 4 star dude in the locker room is saying look at him. I need to be him. Play like him. Try like him. This will help us and IU and Archie for years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Biggest difference is there's about the same number of scholarships for a baseball team as there is for the basketball team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't really care either way.. obviously Archie isn't going to mishandle it, so I'm not at all worried. UL did what? Kuric was a scholarship player who have up his scholarship to help the team.

StLHoosier Posted February 13, 2018 Report Share Posted February 13, 2018 Wasn’t the whole McRoberts scholarship situation hashed out in another thread, or at least about 40 pages back in this thread? Keep thinking it’s Romeo discussion every time I open up HSN. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
addictedtoIU Posted February 13, 2018 Report Share Posted February 13, 2018 I wish McBob gets a free ride. He absolutely deserves it, and it will be a feel-good story for Hoosier fans. With that said, I wouldn't be against MIller if he uses the last scholarship for someone else. HIs job is to make the team better any way he can.

Especially when you're trying to build a culture of hard work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
