Seen some rumblings about this guy from Davidson.

Anybody else heard anything?

Reed Bailey
- Thread starter GR8IUFAN
- Start date
Just tell me if/when he's visiting. Haven't heard one peep on the last big that visited . Silence is not golden when it comes to 10 replacements needed for a team.
Sounds like he is coming. We may look like Iowa roster this year haha
If this and the Nijel Pack rumors are true, IU will be VERY fun to watch on the offensive end....maybe not so much on the defensive side of the ball. DeVries will need to find at least two defensive-minded wings.
Last year's 3-point averages
Tucker DeVries: 47.3%
Reed Bailey: 41.5%
Luke Goode: 39.2%
Trent Sisley: 44%
Nijel Pack: 38.6%
That is why you do not panic, I assume we will have several commits that appear "to come from nowhere" this year.
May not be a sexy add, but a solid kid who can shoot and cause match up issues on one end (well probably on both!!)
It's been posted by unreliable people on X (and discussed on BTB) that Nijel Pack is interested in playing for IU. Big grain of salt.
He played the 5 in majority of games, though he was also paired with similar sized player for 11 games pre conference. His ability to pass the ball stands out, not as fancy as Wolfe but as effective. Shoot's well if not often. Gets to the line a lot. Can face up or play back to the basket. Mobile not a plodder, not super quick but quicker than Wolfe. Big 4, or mobile 5 more likely.
It would be a good pickup if everything translates.

Ive seen nothing of the sort. Everything ive read its kentucky. Where are you seeing this.
My Lord that man shoots 77% career from the free throw line. Sign him up! How long has it been since we could count on anyone to hit free throws reliably?
Ahh…yes. The same program that is 6-4 against IU over the last 10 and beat the crap out of Woody’s all-Star team, again.
Also the same team that won 7 conference games this year.
I agree. And none of them attempted near the free throws Bailey did. He seems like a nice piece to the puzzle.
That we weren’t very good, but that doesn’t mean I want to be Iowa….
Can live with that. Many ways to be effective
And that was on something like 220 attempts! Impressive, especially for a big guy. It just looks like he knows how to play the game. And it's been good to see that he actually improved every year. That's what you expect to see.
I like his handle. He can play modern offense. He was 1 rebound away from a triple double vs. Archie this year. Well rounded player.
Goode, Rice and Mgbako all shot a better FT% than that. It's great for a big though. Not a great rebounder but we can offset that with another aggressive big.
Looks like we are going for an all white team like Princeton! Interesting to say the least!
I think we’re going to look a lot like Michigan with roster construction.
I was surprised at that, maybe not Goode. But why does is seem like it was always Leal or Galloway who were shooting at the end of games for us?
