2021 IU recruiting thread

We have an offer to John Camden out of Philly? 6'7" 195 SF for 2021

I don't have a subscription to 247sports. Anyone know anything about this kid or his interest? Rivals doesn't have anything on IU being in the running
 
The 6-foot-7 wing is the No. 103 rated player overall in the class of 2021, and the No. 23 small forward according to the 247Sports Composite.


Camden is best known as a three-point shooter, especially the catch-and-shoot variety. He made 72 three-pointers on his junior season. Camden earned Pennsylvania Class 4A All-State honors following the 2019-20 campaign.

Lander officially in 2020 class. FYI. #2 class in the composite rankings. 13 in the nation. If you go by 247 ranking only we are #1 in the Big. Waiting for Rivals to change their rankings.

Honestly not overly impressed with this kid's highlights. Doesn't look like a kid that can go & get his shot when he wants it. Stand-up shooter, not particularly athletic or physical. I do get that other than Hunter we don't have any 6'7" shooters.....just don't see how this kid fits in CAM's offense.

Bumped, with a few minor changes......I see little talk on here about the Camden kid, who is being listed at 6'8" on some sites....seems like a Mason Miller type, thin, outside shooter.

I've put Miller in with the top group, although Rivals/247 do not show offers....I've also updated the rivals & 247 ratings for all players

Seems like our chances with Wesley are fading. And Mohammed does not appear to be close to a decision.

The guy from the Daily Hoosier is very high on Nate Johnson, out of Ohio. I thought we might have offered him before now. Other than the obvious in Kaufman, next up Miller? Langino? Camden?

We're looking at 6'5" 180 lbs Alexis Reyes, a SG out of MA....This one surprises me at this point in time, as he's unranked by 247 or Rivals, and the offer list isn't much to look at.

I don't know how many of you guys have seen the recent Kaufman youtube highlights.....but here's what I'm thinking about '21---

Kaufman is rated 39 by 247, 38 by Rivals
Duncomb is rated 76 by 247, 138 by Rivals
Mason Miller is rated 50 by 247, 63 by Rivals

I thought Kaufman looked awesome in his recent highlights----like a top 20 guy.

Mason Miller is a nice player. But there is a LOT more distance between Kaufman and Mason than would be implied by the 11 places in 247 or 23 in Rivals. Really night and day talents. Duncomb can be a productive guy for us down the road. But if you watch Kaufman's highlights, Logan is essentially a spectator as Kaufman drives, dunks, dribbles, shoots.....Fits a role, but is not a difference maker.

Mohammed seems like a big ?. Won't know what's going on with him until December, apparently. It would be great to get him, but even if we do Kaufman looks like the make or break commit if we intend to contend for a BTC in '21-'22.

Not sure if this has been mentioned on here....Longino's supposed to announce on Thursday...Nova's the favorite.
 
Nova it is

We must not need the best shooter in the state. One could argue the best passer also.

Noted that we are now out on Graham III.

Also, IU has interest in Sean Durugordon, 6'7" 215 sf from NYC, playing now in CT. Rivals has him at 6'6" 200 lbs. Fast rising kid, # 86 on 247, not rated on Rivals, with offers from ASU, AUB, GA, PSU, Depaul, MO, SH.

247 has him at #231; not sure where you got he was ranked #86. He's an interesting prospect though; 6'6" with a 7-foot wing span and he averaged 23 points and 11.5 rebounds a game while shooting 52%/44%/78%. He played on the prep school circuit last year and won a class-B title, but I'm not sure what the competition is like. Next year he is playing at Putnam Science Academy, one of the top programs in the country, so he will be worth watching. Could be a real sleeper despite his low ranking. Not sure what his position will end up being, but worth watching.

I thought he looked pretty good on you tube as well.

247 itself has him as #86. 247 composite has him as 231. Meaning that he's not rated high on Rivals & ESPN.

He does look more like 6'6" (Rivals) than 6'7" (247) to me....

86 is the score they give him, not his ranking. 247 has him unranked nationally and 59th at his position.

For comparison, Trey Patterson gets a score of 95 from them. For that higher is better.

Some good posters on HSN think we'll have a commitment from M. Miller within the next couple of weeks. CAM is said to be talking to him daily. Right now the other options appear to be Creighton & OSU.

He's a skinny, skilled 6'9" guy. Not nearly the impact guy Kaufman would be, but would fit in well with K, if we get him, and Duncomb.
 
I like Miller a lot. He’s a similar player to Kaufman the difference is his body hasn’t filled out. He’s taller and might be a better shooter. He’s not as physical or athletic as Kaufman but still a nice player.

If we could land Duncomb, Miller & Kaufman all in one class it would be quite a haul. Their games compliment one another very well.
 
Both players are extremely good and I love the fact that we are discussing this type of recruitment. It has been a while since CBK that we have gotten these type of Indiana recruiting domination from Archie and after this coming season when we are top 15 team Archie will start also getting the out of state targeted recruits he wants. Archie knows how to recruit. He is very specific and he hones in on recruits and gets them. Very successful in IN so far and he has gotten some good out of state (Jerome, Logan, Race, Geronimo) players and we will continue to see more consistency with Archie because our performance on the court will be a lot better. The team chemistry and makeup with guys like Galloway, Leal, Rob, TJD, Race, and most of the team that will just go play and have an extra “want it” that will make this team really good. We are trending in the right direction under Archie to be successful for a long time. Bobby knew if he got the best IN kids and mix in a sprinkle of other areas outside of IN you can build championship teams and Archie seems to be emulating those tactics for building his program. We have the right coach!
