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 kid is just getting started with bball, and has a high motor and work ethic, he could end up an incredible find for someone. If he isn't a hard worker, he could be Hanner Perea 2.0.

Tucker doesn’t shoot well from perimeter. Add some shooters if we have him the lineup

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.

why is he unsigned this late did he decommit from someone else?
 
Were we involved with him before McNeely originally committed? For some reason I thought we were
 
It's still jarring to read in the article that IU has SEVEN scholarships open.
I have seen different things posted around the internet regarding the portal Not saying this is true but the rumors are so far things are not going well in the portal with players IU should be able to get. I guess they being told they need to change their style or play and pay them a ton of money to get them to come to IU. Takie it for what it is worth just rumors I read.

It’s from the same “source” on BTown Banners who said IU and Pearl had a dollar amount agreed upon, who also said the entire team was leaving at the end of the year if Woody returned, who also said a meeting was scheduled to discuss Woodson’s future only to have Osterman come out 2 hours later confirming Woodson’s return. Take it for what it’s worth, which isn’t much.
