Where did you hear that?

I'm not saying you're wrong, just wondering.

Sounds great so far! But as we all know, recruiting is one major roller coaster ride.

Sounds like Sampson to me...how easily we forget our troubled past

It will eventually come to haunt him and we will all be laughing. He may be "cool cat cal", but everyone makes mistakes and eventually forgets to cover something up. Kentucky fans are officially the most bipolar fans EVER!!!!!!!!!!! Monday Cal was basically God. No, they are complaining about getting punished. If u chose to pick a shady guy as ur commander than u have to live with the consequences. U can't have the best of both worlds. Someone tell the impatient and idiotic Kentucky fans that it takes time to build a program the right way. Trying to figure them out gives me a headache. Thats why I love bein a Hoosier. We will be an elite power in a couple years while they are under probation watchin us in March! In CTC we trust.

I think there are many better guards in the class of 2012 that we can get. Just because he is from Indiana does not mean we have to get him. Look at Creek. Just my opinion.

BigA — Wed, 20 May 2009 18:48:26 -0000

Totally disagree on the last comment. You might not consider him a top priority, but he is a top priority for IU.

Re: D’Vauntes Smith-Rivera: IU atmosphere ‘great’

pacino — Wed, 20 May 2009 17:19:31 -0000

He will definately be an interesting prospect. Hopefully he develops into a superstar.

Re: D’Vauntes Smith-Rivera: IU atmosphere ‘great’

pacino — Wed, 20 May 2009 17:18:04 -0000

Very solid fundamentals. Watched him many times. Very limited athleticly. He couldn't even dunk it in a game i watched. Not explosive at all. He has very good instinct though. I would not consider him at all a top priority.

Re: Crean on academics, recruiting jucos and recruiting getting younger

pacino — Thu, 14 May 2009 21:04:32 -0000

This makes me verry happy. Crean is as hard of a worker as they come. His intense recruiting efforts will pay off for us. I do agree that the IU luster is somewhat gone compared to what it used to be. I am not worried because I know he will build a strong foundation for a very succesful program. Another point. He seems to know exactly what he wants and how he is going to get it. We must be patient. HOOOOSIER NATION BABY!

Ihave also heard that Morgan is probably going to commit soon.

I know we like to make the comparrison to MSU. Their team consisted of a lot of top notch recruits. they had six 4 stars and two 5 stars. As much as we try and mke ourselves feel better about getting so called project players it isnt like MSU had many. Most of their contributers were high caliber recruits.

Re: Marquis Teague goes off at Boo Williams

jon — Sun, 03 May 2009 14:52:03 -0000

this is my boi an he puts it down, from pike high school has alot of potential an plays with alot passion, he has college games as u look how high he gets on his jump shot teague is no risk hes gonna show up every day sometimes u can question his effort like againt l.n. when pitino was there, he plays alot different in school ball but these high light are nicee

Re: Marquis Teague goes off at Boo Williams

pacino — Wed, 29 Apr 2009 20:57:33 -0000

I talked tohis best fried and he said Marquis is clueless. He is always changin his mind on who he likes. He told me that he has recently gained some interest in Kentucky. I aked about him ending up at IU, and he said as of know NO. Bummer, but hopefully we will get him. This is as reliable of a source you can get.

Re: Marquis Teague goes off at Boo Williams

pacino — Mon, 27 Apr 2009 20:31:29 -0000

He is AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!! He will look so good in a packed Assembly Hall adding a sixth banner. I can just hear the 18,000 screaming fans. Marquise Teague! If he were smart at all he would go to IU were he would be able to compete for a final four and be an impact player right away. He won't get that at Louisville no matter what they try to tell his dad to get him to play for pitino.

Re: Nick Williams will not return next season

pacino — Wed, 15 Apr 2009 18:57:31 -0000

He was a hard worker and fine player. I wish him the best. It shows that we are starting to get some real talent in the cream and crimson. I like it alot! Practice will be very competitive and bring out the best of all our hoosiers. Maybe this is a sign of more great talent arriving in B-Town!

Re: DeShaun Thomas says he’s sticking with Ohio State

CraiginOR,

I'll also try to help fill you in on some of the potential recruits. I agree w/ Kelin, Boutte is not good enough to play at IU, but can play at a smaller DI.

Hill didn't show me much. Very slow offensively and defensively.

Turner can really light it up, and with lots of range!

DDavis is solid, maybe a bit small right now, but he's young.

Teague is smooth. Very talented.

As far as Thomas goes I'm going to have to agree with a few of you. If he decides to pursue IU then I'm all for it, but otherwise let him be. He is extremely tough around the basket (could use his right hand a bit more), and has a nose for the ball. Definately needs to develop an outside game or at least work on using the bounce to get to the rim. As far as the academics and the character ideas, we should probably leave that up to people who know him a bit more than watching him play basketball. Since those people have actually interacted with the kid.

Re: DeShaun Thomas says he’s sticking with Ohio State

pacino — Wed, 15 Apr 2009 07:50:04 -0000

I have cousins that go to Luers. I also know many people that go there. They all say he is a great kid but when it comes to the books VERY I MEAN VERY SLOW!!!!!!!!!!!!

Whats the deal with Deshaun Thomas looking at Iu? Is this a rumor or for real? Can u imagine him with Watford and Ferguson. I am getting ahead of myself.

What about Story? That would free up another scholorship for someone like Irving. We could use.
