True. I'm not really arguing against that. Maybe it is the missing piece.
Those guys are harder to find. 'Cause they can play. lol
So I'll settle for chess pieces he can insert now and then.
Same here. Only difference was the size of the party in non L5 weeks. But always a party and it was every night.
You add an off the bounce guy to last year the stat goes up. Needed a guy who could get any shot he wants.
There's other players?
And what you just stated, would win a hell of a lot of games. Lost fans is right.
We had that guy, he found shots everywhere on the floor. They just didn't go in very often, and next year he will be at Depaul.
Probably light it up.
Something in the water or the coaching at Bloomington. Good shooting bad m'kay?
Authentic frontier gibberish. Congrats.Probably light it up.

Yeah sure. If you would take the time(nobody does) and read the whole comments then you would know the guy needs to shoot “3s” at 35% off the bounce.
I actually do think he has ability that hasn't shown yet. So with our bad luck, he'll probably find it there.
But yeah, a little snide about why can't our staff either find guys who can shoot, or develop them. Hopefully this year.

He’ll probably light it up as much as Damezi Anderson did when he transferredProbably light it up.

Just to be clear… not every ball dominant guard that shoots under 40% from 3 is CJ Gunn. Seems to be the belief of some here…
Heh, I'm clear.
I also enjoy the part where people bitched about going 10 deep early in the season, and then they also bitch when #8, 9, and 10 transfer because they got no playing time after Woodson shortened the rotation.
I read all the comments. I was just kidding around about Gunn's unrepentant gunning. Not meant as a jab at you or anyone else (this time).
24/7 just gave Indiana a CB for Kanaan Carlyle, 6-3 185lbs.
I guess he and Rice are buddies from ATL and both maybe had some relationship with Yaz? Those 2 and Ballo would be the makings of a very good team! Get the Bloomington South kid from Drake and another backup frontcourt guy and I think that would be a title contending team in the B10.

Good news on the CB. This Carlyle kid looks like a nice addition, Him and Rice should change a lot for IU. Get some shooters and we are set.

Coach Cig will single-handily keep us out of the Mid American conference while Woody and Buckner finish the killing off men’s hoops in my view. I certainly can become a football first fan!
Take it to the other board. No one wants to hear you whine.
Eh, to be fair, quite a few of the deep-advancing teams in the tournament this year were chock full of one- and two-year portal rentals. Iowa State was almost nothing but recent portal acquisitions. So, it *is* pretty much the new way. And, before anyone chimes in with a "b-b-b, whaddabout Purdue?", ask yourself if: 1) they'd even be within spitting distance of the second round if they didn't have Lurch, a complete unicorn of a player (and no, Will Berg is not another such unicorn); 2) their otherwise pedestrian backcourt that played a huge role in their FD first round ouster last year didn't get an invaluable portal boost with Lance Jones; and 3) would any combination of their homegrown, four-year scholarship players ever get them back there. If you're honest, you'd know the answer. You either recruit like a Kansas, Duke, or UNC, or you rely on getting significant upgrades each year from the portal to your recruited talent. This isn't a Woodson affliction. Now, is he able to coach that assembled roster up? That's a different story. But, he definitely isn't wrong for pursuing it.
Several other sites now following the CB pick. I still won’t celebrate until after the visit and commitment. But things are looking better than they did in February. At least on paper.
I agree he’d be a great get- however just because he cancelled Auburn doesn’t mean he’s ours. Folks are already starting the off season optimism- like everything on earth we will see until we do not!
Guess we’ll see if these crystal ball nerds have any credibility left in them.
This tweet was from 2 weeks ago.
I searched him and it popped up. Didn’t notice the date
I firmly believe Rice and Carlyle are silent commits that are doing their due diligence and stepping on campus first just to make sure they don’t absolutely hate it.
I’d say Rice is more of a point guard while Carlyle is a true combo guard.
Carlyle is a sweet looking player. That kind that guys were talking about in the thread who can get off his shot in a variety of ways, set, off bounce, catch and shoot. He does have a nice high release so its not blocked. The kind of player who always eats us up. Be nice to have one on our side.
I hope this news holds up. If so, Coach Woodson is pulling something together. May be improving the roster. I had no hope that would occur not long ago. Although at guard it would be hard not to improve. But this kid has higher level stuff.
