Seriously? Did you watch any games? We had no consistent backcourt shooting. Worst 3 pt shooting team in the conference, in the era of the 3 ball. Struggling to see how that equates to top tier finish in any conference.

We had more talent per the recruiting rankings than all but 3-4 teams. And we finished 11th.
I've seen multiple posts from you claiming that CAM's recruiting efforts are landing players ranked too low for your lofty standards. Now you say we have a plethora of talent basked on those same rankings. So which is it?
I know...that's why I posted it...I think he's remembering the Pritch dunk but thinking that was Priller.
My standards aren’t to just finish top 5 in the Big Ten. He’s recruiting well enough to do that every year but he’s not recruiting good enough to make tournament runs.
How can I make this any simpler for you?
Please realize that fpeaugh is not an IU fan. He has been dogging IU on every post he makes. I Believe fpeaugh Stand for “For Purdue” there is no way he is an IU fan and almost everyone on here knows how he is. It is just best to ignore him. No matter what logic you use he sees things in a weird non fan way. I would just ignore him as I stated earlier. Most of us have decided he is not worth the time.
I stopped taking him seriously long ago. I think he's pretending to be an idiot and sometime what he says is so outrageously stupid it's funny. Or he's really an idiot and I should feel bad for laughing at him. Or not.
you didn't say anything about tourney runs. You said we had talent to finish top 5 in conf. I did not see such talent this year. I saw the worst 3 point shooting team in the conf. That's not top 5 talent. Don't think I can make any more simple for you. Stop moving the goal posts like you always do.

He's a purdue fan..., that makes your last observation about him rather redundant...

Nice job hijacking and derailing yet another thread. You are filling in for Ordfan fairly well.
true that....it gets to the point that I forgot this post was about a 7 footer that IU was looking at. Every post seems to spiral into the abyss where we are no longer debating anything having to do with the original topic. Exhausting and yet boring.
Tim Priller, Jeremiah April, Tijan Jobe and Bawa Muniru approve of this post.
But before the season you said the roster was the worst in decades, recruiting was dead and the program was a dumpster fire.
We were going to drop significantly with the losses of Romeo and Juwan.
Fast forward a year and now we had a top 4 roster?
You need to keep your trolls straight.
You have 72 posts calling IU basketball, coaching or recruiting a "dumpster fire." Including this one:
You're a real dunce.
Took about a minute to search, scan and quote. He has a long history of moronic troll posts.
I like it, you could argue its a highlight reel and what is the level of competition. Inside game might not translate immediately, but you can't fake shooting three's and against any level of competition, if you are 7 foot and can hit it, you've got game
That's probably just a level of competition thing, I mean if you feel like you can score easily, should you not do that for your team to win? Your point is valid though, he's probably lacking much of a passing game and that is a big deal at the next level
Amazing how a little contact, that was initiated by the kids camp, gets traction on message boards nowadays.
And why hasn’t he committed? Just gives the talking heads something to talk about.
Illinois, Oklahoma State, Oklahoma, DePaul, Utah have all offered (see 2nd link)

No worries... Unless they put him on steroids and he picks up 45 pounds of muscle (with 25 of it in his legs) he won't be dropping 20 on anybody in the Big Ten...
He is probably a great kid but at the moment he looks damn near anorexic in terms of having a Big Ten body...
Yes. Yor Anei. Even if he sits a year, I'd take him. Is he still in the transfer portal or is he gone now. I haven't seen any recent news.
