dgambill Posted February 8, 2020 Report Share Posted February 8, 2020 Maybe he will believe he can come in and play right away after watching our guards play horrible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree. I've watched a couple of his games and he reminds me of Devonte. Ill-advised 3s and reckless drives and off-balance shots. I think he's got an attitude problem as well. He was ejected from his game in the John Wall Classic for a less than cordial conversation with an official and in No. Carolina that's an automatic 2-game suspension.. I've also seen him visibly upset with teammates when he doesn't get the ball even though his team gets a bucket. He can jump that's for sure.

He just seems single minded...very talented but I think his head is too big for IU. I won’t mind missing on him. We need talented guards but I’ve seen plenty of guards that Archie went after last summer...would rather land almost any of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr brother-in-law lives in Raleigh and has seen him play live in person and says that he is a very talented tough nose point guard that is engaged into the game very closely and is one of the best high school passers he’s ever seen! His handling is tight and in control which is the opposite of DG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HoosierDom Posted February 9, 2020 Report Share Posted February 9, 2020 I know nothing about this kid, but absent context it's so hard to judge. That tape does not show impressive decision making, but what's his role? Doe his coach tell him he has to score 30 or they won't win? If so, then he's got to do what he does. But, some of those fade away and crazy deep 3's were brutal to watch. I just don't know what the alternative is for his team, nor can you often see the shot clock.

Brass Cannon Posted February 10, 2020 Report Share Posted February 10, 2020 If he wants to reclass I take him in a heartbeat as well as a transfer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IU Scott Posted February 10, 2020 Report Share Posted February 10, 2020 If he is like DG then no thank you but he kind of reminds me of how Geo Baker plays for Rutgers then I would be ok with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IndySportsPartizan Posted February 10, 2020 Report Share Posted February 10, 2020 Based on that scouting video, I also would say a hard no. But there is a reason he is the #8 PG in the nation I suppose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
5 championships Posted February 10, 2020 Report Share Posted February 10, 2020 judging kid off couple 4 minutes videos seems legit! Lol seems pretty talented to me! I’ll let the staff decide if he fits culture/playing style... I really doubt Archie would want him if he Is DG 2.0... Plus DG was ranked like 200th and this kid is top 50... slight difference there.

Indykev Posted February 11, 2020 Report Share Posted February 11, 2020 This might be the worst high light video ever. Not sure how he is the 8th ranked pg in the class. We could find 8 better in Indiana i'm guessing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Indiana will have a real shot here IF they push for it. Obviously, prefer him as a '21 but Indiana seems to be interested either way. If anything, probably prefer him as a '20 but I know (factually) IU is hunting or open to hunting (wink) other '20 players once the season ends. As for Whitt, passing and IQ are impressive. Body a bit of a ways to go and laterally needs an improve. Shooting is ok. Not bad. Not great. Nice to see a post from you, Coach. I always appreciate what you bring to the board.

Even though from all public knowledge we only have one available. Was that a mistake, slip of tongue, or let the cat out the bag on a transfer? Or a these things take care of themselves type of thing? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Body a bit of a ways to go and laterally needs an improve. Shooting is ok. Not bad. Not great. RIVALS' REACTION, WHAT'S NEXT? Whitt needs to get stronger but he is a heady point guard who really sees the floor and he's dangerous as a jump shooter. Because of his need to develop physically, a redshirt may be beneficial if he elects to enroll as a member of the class of 2020. https://sports.yahoo.com/four-star-carter-whitt-options-171618649.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
