Nope not long at all. I’ve done it numerous times. Really boring though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Growing up, I had a branch of family in Arkansas and we’d drive it from Indiana once a year or so. Not a straight shot at all. But I think the I-69 concept would cut it down a lot by essentially creating a diagonal. The funny thing is I don’t drive it anymore lol. I think that is the plan...Would make a trip to Indy or Bloomington a 14 hour piece of cake! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My guess is it would take our old 10 hour drive as a family to Arkansas down to around 7.5 or 8 but that’s a guess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fundamentals Posted March 31, 2021 Report Share Posted March 31, 2021 (edited) Very anecdotal post: BUT... a few springs ago, I watched the EYBL event in Westfield. I was super-impressed by Cole Swider, who played for BABC AAU (Boston-area basketball club). The lad can shoot, big time. He is 6’9, can play 3 or 4. Just entered portal, and he will be a senior next season, but a quick fix as recruiting gets its momentum with new staff. He never really got into the rotation at Villanova, but the kid can play.

psychobat Posted March 31, 2021 Report Share Posted March 31, 2021 Do you think Woodson has given the current IU players in the portal a deadline as to when they have to give him an answer if they want to return? Would seem that we can't wait forever for them to decide. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe Archie had IU in Swider's final 3-5 schools. So there is some familiarity with IU. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems like this kid would fill some roles. I think his dad may have went or played at Iowa. Plus his father passed away last year unexpectedly and may want to come home.....

HoosierFaithful Posted April 1, 2021 Report Share Posted April 1, 2021 Woodson gets to prove his mettle so quickly with recruiting. It’s unlike any coaching change ever. Have to think it factored into Dolson’s two big decisions (to make a change/who to hire) and if he’s right, we will know... right now. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
