This certainly is NOT encouraging....Brooks to UK?

This might to be correct thinking, but if he wants to go to UK then I don't want him. I felt the same way about Lyles. How in the world can Indiana kids want to go there? At least Blackmon did better by sending some of his kids to IU. Hopefully we can get the youngun.

This makes no sense. The better question should be why would anyone want go go to IU. To lose? To get embarrassed? We all need to let go of what IU used to be and realize what it is now. And sad to say but that's really a great big nothing. Right now IU is the 3rd best program in the state of Indiana.

We have the best record in the crossroads classic so eat it, pal.

Actually **** you. Once we get some shooters this all changes. Most high school recruits are more mature and knowledgeable than this board.

Great post, if he goes to UK with IU in its current state I wouldn't blame him one bit.

Lol. Your barometer is one game a year in December in front of an 80% pro IU crowd where we only play 2 of the 3 teams alternating years? Please tell me you have more.

Remember how much Blackmon was badmouthed on this board after he reopened his recruiting?

Curse me all you want. It doesn't change facts. IU has and is slipping further and further into the ranks of irrelevant. I don't like it one bit but it is fact. So why try to deny it? Today Purdue and Butler are so far ahead of IU it's not even close. Regardless of any fluke Champions Classic numbers you might want to pull out.

Are you kidding? Why would they NOT want to go there?
 
I can’t blame a kid if he went to UofK over IU. UofK is simply a better program right now and has been for the last 25 years. An argument could be made they were better before then but it involved well documented cheating.

UofK cares more about basketball than IU. Hurts to say it but it is true.

Actually tied wth Butler in the CC with 5 wins each. And over that same timeframe (should tomorrow be an L) then tied with PU when including B10 games. And an extra game at AH.
 
Listen to RabJohn on the way home on 1260am and he said he has written for 4 months that it was never the heavy lean toward IU as some had said it was. He said the last 4 months it has really been a 3 team battle between IU, UK and MSU so this weekend really did not change a thing because UK was always a huge threat to get Brooks.

After reading everything I can possibly read. I’ve come to the conclusion it’s between IU(playing with his friends, close to home) vs UK(playing with great players among everything else). This one is down to the wire. The draw to UK may just be to much.
 
Just thought I would check in over here to see how you guys felt about Brooks. The kid is a hell of a player. Not 100%, but on our site, it was said he and his dad from coming back to Lexington this weekend for the AUB game. With him canceling on MSU I figure it's us or you.

Why wouldn't it count since we are talking about the teams in the state of Indiana. Lets see what ND or Butler would do in our conference.

If he’s both cancelled MSU and is back in Lexington next weekend, then he’s yours.
He’s got to go where he’s happiest and believes where he’ll be best prepared for the NBA.
Wish it weren’t so, but congratulations if that’s the case.

Listened to Ryan Phillips on Assembly Call yesterday and he said he was told that Brooks really likes IU and Archie and playing with TJD. He was also told that his family sees him as a one and done and thinks that UK would be the better place for him. So it might be a battle between what Keion wants or what his family feels is best for him. To me the family should let him do what he wants to do and if that is go to UK then so be it or it is to go to IU then great but it should be his choice.
 
5 UK Crystal Ball Picks in 2 days per 247, including Andrew Slater, one of the best in the business.

What a crazy recruitment.

Hopefully Keion makes the best choice for him in his mind.
 
Kid has some game ..For sure..Would I love to see him in Btown..Yes !
Is he a savoir..No..
I've seen both play multiple times..
Brooks is a little soft..Rumor is
He doesn't like to play with small nagging injuries..
Jerome Hunter is better....But will he ever see the floor ?
That's the big question..
