Go Hoosiers!

 

[76-1]

Per 24/7: It now appears (per that site) that all 21 of our current commits intend to sign early. Hopefully, they all still intend to sign with us...

Christmas comes early this year for rabid IU Football fans...

 

[IndyIUFan66]

If so, will be great and I like that it allows IU to 100% focus on the what 4-6 spots they'd have left after Jan 1. Could be a great signing class in total this year.

 

[76-1]

This could be one of our best classes ever.

 

[Indianaftw]

This could be one of our best classes ever.

Fingers crossed early Christmas!

Go Hoosiers!

18 out of 21 so far. Things are looking good.

 

[Indianaftw]

I show Cam Jones and James Head unsigned and that's it...Plus of course Penix and Charleton for bonuses

Guessing Head and Charlton will sign at a their HS at the same time, hopefully both to IU

Their school's ceremony is underway now. Head just confirmed to and signed with IU. Charlton picked FIU.

Damn was hoping for the Exacta BUT James is in!

 

[RBB89]

Well, everyone was stating that Charlton was down to Syracuse and Indiana. Naturally, he commits to FIU. Obviously the person who wanted him to stay close to home won out.

That was a strange recruitment to follow. Best of luck to him though.

 

[RBB89]

Penix at 1pm.

 

[Indianaftw]

Penix at 1pm.

If we get Penix how much more will that bump us from 35th?

 

[YOTHN]

I like what we have been able to sign. Now we have a couple months to shoot for the stars and fill any possible gaps.

 

[76-1]

Cam Jones has his signing ceremony at 10:45am. I don't know if that's EST or CST...

I believe MP has his ceremony at 1pm but I could have that one wrong...

i was thinking I read yesterday that Cam Jones was reconsidering and not signing until Feb?

Could be. I didn't see that...

I read it on here somewhere,
RBB may know.

I've got a bad feeling about Jones, but I guess we'll know soon,. I went to his twitter page to see if there was anything.......looking at that, you would think he was a true believer, lots of IU love.

I think he's the best of a weak group of LB recruits this year, so I hope he sticks.

 

[RBB89]

I read it on here somewhere,
RBB may know.

As far as I know, he’s announcing in about an hour.

 

[CC Mac]

Awesome, guess I dreamt that lol

If that is what your dreams entail, then it might be time to step off the keyboard for a bit. vbg

No kidding, that is a bit weird isn’t it? (;

 

[YOTHN]

So it looks like we got Noah Pierre added to our class today. DB out of Florida.

 

[IU_Hickory]

any info on him? hopefully he isn't a reach. We should be able to swing for the fences with the remaining scholarships given we have most of the class signed now.

I don’t think the staff is just going to be throwing away scholarships. To be honest, the more kids from Florida, the better.

Sounds like a ball hawk. Not seeing him on the official site yet however. Is he a preferred walk-on or a scholarship guy?

I just looked and it had him listed.

Thanks, my phone must have a slow refresh rate..., or something...

Seeing him now...

I trust this staff in regard to evaluating who can play Big Ten football...

I like the idea that we've found a diamond in the rough...

 

[HoosierNative]

Cam Jones is signed.
Go Hoosiers!

I like him......don't think he'll play in year 1, but could see him as a starter as a soph. Maybe a step slow for the big boys but tough and instinctive.

edit....looking at his HS stats....man, was he productive. What stood out to me--4 yr starter, 4 ints as a frosh, 6 as a soph, but there's a lot there

 

[skippy1813]

Don't forget, one of our best recruits for 2018 may already be on campus - Bryant Fitzgerald

Looking like another solid class overall, but don't they always at this time of year?

I've read somewhere they are looking at him as a Linebacker.

Yep, and he (Fitzgerald) gets to be with the team in January if I recall the details correctly...

Kid can HIT. That one handed pick was nice too.
