Go Hoosiers!!! Looking like unless you join the cheating game getting these out of state five stars is going to be next to impossible imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stromboli Posted May 20, 2019 Report Share Posted May 20, 2019 Pretty sweet to see the kid break down talking about Christian. For all the bravado and selfies and on-court heroics, he's still a little brother. Anyway, good luck to Trendon. Indiana is not playing the same recruiting game as these other schools.

IU Scott Posted May 20, 2019 Report Share Posted May 20, 2019 Well it has been a little disappointing this spring because I really thought we would add at least one more significant player. Now there are not that many good transfers left so I would guess we have our roster pretty much settled. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seeking6 Posted May 20, 2019 Report Share Posted May 20, 2019 Exactly what we've discussed for months on here is playing out on social media. Even if you believe LSU is clean the idea of picking them leads all to say it's dirty. Just beyond head scratching to me why you would subject your kid to this. I'd love to be on a coach group text right now...they all have to be saying see what we're up against? They get Wade saying he made a great offer, are dirty....and they still get kids. Just not sure which way to go anymore with recruiting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't get it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BobSaccamanno Posted May 20, 2019 Report Share Posted May 20, 2019 I have never come close to driving Birmingham to Baton Rouge so I checked it out. It is essentially one hour closer than driving Birmingham to Bloomington. 5 hours, 45 minutes vs 6 hours 45 min Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FKIM01 Posted May 20, 2019 Report Share Posted May 20, 2019 No surprise just disappointment in the outcome. Wonder if Will was honest with Trendon about all those "strong-*ss offers" he made to other players? Yes, he's Christian's little brother, but no, I won't follow him at a program I have no respect for. I wish him an injury-free career and hope he does well personally, but crooked Will Wade and LSU basketball can rot in hell as far as I'm concerned. EDIT: Forgot my Billingsly flourish...seems particularly appropriate when talking about Will Wade and the sewer he navigates... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

milehiiu Posted May 20, 2019 Report Share Posted May 20, 2019 Hard to strike out on a kid that you have been on the on deck circle for most of his recruitment. IU got in very late. And if what the family said is to believed. Made up a remarkable amount of ground in a very short period of time. My only question is why, IU waited for so long. Still. Wish only the best for Trendon. I can understand why he would want his family to see him play closer to home, unlike Christian. I just hope this works out for a great kid.

Stlboiler23 Posted May 20, 2019 Report Share Posted May 20, 2019 All you can do is laugh. The guy is clearly a cheater and can still get these types of players to go there. The college basketball landscape would be better without the Sean Miller and Will Wades of the world. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We were after some ketchup that was supposed to be a lock?? IU came in late and whiffed (yep, I said it), yet sneaky Cal comes in late and swoops the ketchup kid right out from under us!! Yeah I guess you could say I'm a little miffed! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seeking6 Posted May 20, 2019 Report Share Posted May 20, 2019 Rabby just tweeted.... For those asking, I wrote in April 2018 that Trendon Watford planned to make his own path. IU was very, very, very aware of this. IU was listed as a "finalist" but wasn't actively recruiting him. Today's announcement is not even close to a surprise in any way. #iubb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
