You obviously are not really aware of these two elite basketball players. I won’t explain myself, just do your research. GO IU ALLDAY EVERYDAY

Mike Davis was and still is a good recruiter. No doubt about it. Head Coach, not so much...

Re: Crawford expected to return for sophomore season

I heard clips of the coaches speaking at Huber Farm. That story is great to hear. I really believe we are on the right track.

Crawford is a good kid. I hope he stays. I heard Crean mention tonight on the radio clips, paraphrase V. Jones is similar to S. Livingston (hope he doesn't get hurt) sees the court real well. However, has alot of bulking up to do. Also, spoke very highly of N. Williams

Re: Emmanuel Negedu to visit Indiana on June 3

Allright here we go... I hope we can land Negedu! I really believe we have a great shot. Tijan Jobe signing is not gonna hurt in the least bit. In fact, I think it really helps us along with the considerable amount PT he will get.

GO Crean n Crimson

Re: Report: Jeremiah Rivers to Indiana

I have mixed feelings about this. Rivers was at best an average role player at G'town. I saw the Hoyas play on TV at times and he was above average defensive player it seemed. Not to much of a threat offensively. We need players like this but... we also need some solid bigs. We are still really slim in the post...

Re: Crean dismisses Brandon McGee for ‘negligence’

Does not surprise me at all. Hopefully, Crawford will stay but we see, won't surprise me if he leaves. If he stays my respect level will go way up for him.

Mcgee is gone, this frees up a scholly. Sutton is gone. Negudu is out there. Anyone else IU might be looking at ???

Re: Around the Hall: Hulls, Jobe, Negedu and more

Boy, I sure would love to see E. Negedu come to IU. I really believe it would increase our talent. So far, I dont see why he would not start right away. That has got to be a great reason to come to IU. Plus the connection with Jobe....

Possible

PG- Dumes/ Jones
SG- Crawford/ Roth
SF- McGee/ Williams
PF- Negudu/ Pritchard
C- Taber/ Jobe

I really look for alot from N. Williams, he seems like a solid player. I am still uncertain about Pritchard, I have never seen any tape of him.

Re: Report: Tijan Jobe to sign with IU today

jdaddy — Tue, 20 May 2008 16:13:16 -0000

clearly, this guy is a project. Cream knows what he is doing. He give us immediate size, will start right.

C- Jobe
PF- Negedu
SF- N. Williams
SG- J. Crawford
PG- V. Jones

Re: Report: Negedu LOI decision coming today

jdaddy — Tue, 20 May 2008 15:25:01 -0000

Re: Crean nabs another for ’08: Champaign’s Verdell Jones

jdaddy — Tue, 06 May 2008 11:19:51 -0000

Seriously, we need some bigs! Tom Pritchard is gritty and will turn into a solid Big Ten type player but after that we have Taber, McGee and uhhhmmm. Who ever is out there with some sort of talent and good ethic and size, IU should really look at that. Sutton? Not sure about this kid, up and down games, will get knocked around B10 play, needs weight. Thoughts about any other names we got 2 more schollys, I think???
