Max Posted April 30, 2018 Report Share Posted April 30, 2018 Based off the highlights I've seen from the weekend and in general, Brooks looks very comfortable handling the ball. I like that a lot, playmaker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BobSaccamanno Posted May 1, 2018 Report Share Posted May 1, 2018 From what I have seen, Brooks plays with a certain, let's say, hostility, that I really like. I hope we get him. Getting tuned into Ft Wayne is a great idea too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When was the last time IU got a top recruit from the FW area? If Archie could open up FW, the southern part of the state and the Region, WOW! As far as Fort Wayne goes the last would have been Luke Recker. But you could count JBJ, although he graduated from Marion, he committed when he was at FW Luers. The only other FW area boys that I can think of that went to IU are John Flowers and Tracy Foster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He had only played one year of football in high school and many IU football fans were initially irritated that a football scholarship was being wasted on a basketball player. I believe when James was recruited that he was one of the all time leading scorers in the Summit Athletic Conference for basketball. He was definitely ranked higher as a basketball player coming out of high school. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom Bolyard was from Ft Wayne and played in the early 60's. He was captain of the team his senior year on a team that included the VanArsdale twins. He averaged 18 points per game for his career which ranks right up there with the all-time best Hoosiers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
