I conceded that he would have helped our backcourt depth, but he would not be a season saver for us, in my opinion... I’m not touting him. I said Purdue picked up a grad transfer guard. You asked for options and I delivered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here's a screenshot of the original question, and your reply...I had asked what player specifically could Archie have gone after, and you replied "I gave you one off the top of my head." So, you didn't mean we should have went after Proctor? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s likely due for a big second half as water finds its level. There are definitely some useful pieces on this list including the honorable mentions at the bottom. https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.cbssports.com/college-basketball/news/ranking-college-basketballs-top-graduate-transfers-who-will-play-for-new-teams-in-2019-20/amp/ Well, it certainly sounded like you were touting him...had you provided the link above the first time I questioned you on "who" I wouldn't have written you off as indolent...

Wright committed to Colorado less than a week prior to Gelon leaving. If Archie wanted Wright and Wright wanted to come here, they obviously would have talked about it and Wright would have held off commiting to Colorado and came here a week later. I have no knowledge, so this is pure speculation. I’ve always suspected that CAM didn’t want to poach a Dayton recruit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iuthruandthru Posted December 31, 2019 Report Share Posted December 31, 2019 Man some of you act like Archie Is the pope and can do no wrong. On the flip some of you make it seem IU is 2-11 not 11-2. Personally I will wait until the end of the season and BIG play to hold my judgement. However if the BIG season goes the way it did last year I it will be an upsetting trend.

We just aren't nearly as good as our record exactly as I told everyone at this time a year ago. I will let the season play out but it looks really bad to me.

Hell, Crean brought Nick Williams with him here, and I think Mo Creek was considered a heavy Marquette lean and was the 2nd in that class to commit (Elston remained committed after Sampson). And Crean is a relatively above the board coach too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is his opinion/word on the street, from things he has heard, that Archie and Devonte dont like each other on a personal level and Archie cannot stand the way DG plays. Justin Smith is salvageable. The upperclassmen are Crean recruits the underclassmen are Archie's recruits. It's like oil and water. Is it Archie's fault he cant change them? I dont know. But, give CAM a team of Sr Rob(hopefully healthy), So.Leal, Jr.Jerome, So.Geronimo, So. Galloway, and whatever big we have at the time and see what happens. It might take until year 5....if he gets it. I want CAM to succeed because another coaching change...umm. I dont want to there tonight. If that is the case then why didn't Archie just have a talk with Green after the first year and tell him the best for both of them would be for him to transfer.

He is pure and simply the Anti-Christ of IU Hoops. Herbert was no better and f he had let the AD hire who he wanted then we would not be in this situation.
