    Bryson Tucker commits

    Need someone that can defend the post and rebound, for sure.

    Bryson Tucker commits

    The one I listed... I would think could win low 20s, over .500 in conference, solid 5-8 seed in tourney. But we do need a PG, another big that's preferably an elite level defender/rebounder, and a few versatile shooter/scorer/defenders on the wing yet.

    Bryson Tucker commits

    Ohhhh kayyyy... Now a PG (Perkins) Then a shooter/playmaker (Hickman) Then a Defensive oriented big (Williams from Drexel) Then another shooter (Blackmon) Then a couple versatile, longer, 2 way players that can shoot... And hopefully the last couple guys I mentioned have more than 1 year...

    Tony Perkins (sounds like he's coming here to me)

    We needed one last year. And we probably will again this year, which is why Perkins is such a good fit. But if Woodson can get a handful of good scorer/shooters on the wing, Gabe becomes A LOT more valuable with his minutes.

    I have... Now you try to project Walker in IU's system, playing for Woodson...

    Tony Perkins (sounds like he's coming here to me)

    Has played it in the past... Perkins, Cupps, and then Hickman if needed would be a solid PG group.

    Tony Perkins (sounds like he's coming here to me)

    Perkins? And then Hickman and Cupps?

    That's unlikely.

    Perkins in the portal

    Perkins, Hickman, Walker, a good defending/rebounding big, Mack stays, AND Jakai Newton is healthy. With our returning guys, that's a solid NCAA tournament team.

    Perkins in the portal

    Nope...just want back in the NCAA tournament again next year. And Trey would be a good "5th starter" for a solid NCAA tournament team, like he was last year. If we were in a different spot as a program, and had legit Final Four expectations, obviously you look at Trey a little differently...

    Perkins in the portal

    Except when he drops 28 on Kansas. And has a multi game stretch of averaging up near 10 assists a game. Or when he goes an entire season shooting nearly 50% from the three. Trey needs to be one of our wings, surrounded by 1) A good PG 2)a couple scorer/shooters 3)a good big Perkins Galloway...

    There are "better" PGs out there...but for what we need, there probably aren't more than a couple better fits for IU.

    Tony Perkins (sounds like he's coming here to me)

    Does Tucker defend well? I only watched a couple games and mostly highlights, it didn't look like he was overly interested in defending from what I saw. But again, that was a limited sample size. And I haven't really read much about him.

    Perkins in the portal

    Perkins fits the mold of the exact type of point guard we need. Solid shooter, and scorer at all 3 levels. Solid defender. But probably most importantly, he's high energy, and probably doesn't need to be "coached up" in that area. I haven't really paid attention to all the other guys being...

    Diamant Blazi visiting

    100% depends on his personality and mental makeup. If he's any sort of Victor Olidipo type kid, he'll probably be a diamond in the rough type, future NBA kid. If he's not...Hanner 2.0 maybe. Hopefully the staff can pick up on that through their evals, and during the visit. If he appears...

    Richard Pitino (Jr) to Louisville??

    I think Collins fits well at Northwestern. Hope he stays up there, the B10 needs as many good coaches as possible.

    2024 5 star Tucker visiting Indiana

    If he was a higher level defender, I wouldn't worry as much about the potential shooting issues. Maybe I didn't see him in the right setting? But it sure didn't appear that defense was high on his list of priorities, in the games I watched.

    2024 5 star Tucker visiting Indiana

    Obviously in our situation, I'd take Tucker and probably this other kid. But with Tucker, I'd worry a little bit about him being another Mgbako, especially defensively. I've watched a few of his games, and even the announcers reference his lack of energy on defense at times. If the other...

    If we don't get him, everyone should ask for their NIL money back

    If we're relying on them the same way we did this year...bubble ceiling. And that's IF Woody is able to pull some talent in other areas like the Tucker kid, or some higher level wing/big transfers.

    If we don't get him, everyone should ask for their NIL money back

    Has Zeke Mayo from SDSU entered the portal yet? If we can't get someone like Mack, Mayo, Gillespi, etc... then you're right, Cuban and company should pull their money back until we have a coaching change.
