IU has zero HS recruits for 2024. To be a successful program, you need a core group of veterans, a steady crop of HS recruits and portal transfers to fill needs. IU is acting like a bad pro team with lots of cap space looking to overpay for a bunch of free agents. There's no evidence that this is a formula for sustained success. I'm not disagreeing with that. I don't get the notion that people are throwing out there that IU is going to buy their players. why is there a negative connotation to that. Everyone is doing it. Why are some throwing out this pathetic attempt of criticism? UK is doing it. KU is doing it. Duke is doing it.

DWB Posted March 26 Report Share Posted March 26 As mentioned in an earlier post from someone, those schools have a HS recruiting class for ‘24-25’. We don’t. We’ve got 7(?) scollys open. Have to go buy them in the portal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get that. solely talking about buying players, What's the difference between buying transfers, or buying high school kids? the issue lies in having a team full of transfers, not in the "buying of players".

Or, are you willing to consider the fact that there could be multiple factors why he would not be hired, that are both beyond what you perceive his 'bigness' may be, and that those reasons have legitimacy behind them. Certainly others. But even if he was the cleanest coach ever IU would never hire him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not surprised no one wants to play for Woody's God awful system and especially when he's likely to only be here one year. Dolson better call the Simons and the Cooks and tell them we're going to need a bigger boat. Looks like we'll have to vastly over pay to get anyone decent.

Practice is coach time Game time is for players You think he doesn’t know defense? trying to get freshman to learn defense is difficult….
