If Kentucky or Kansas offered a 3 star recruit in their backyard they would commit on the spot. Galloway and Leal are waiting to see if Archie pisses down his leg again. They aren’t dumba#%es.
You expressed things perfectly.
Thank you.

This isn’t true and recruiting hasn’t been Archie’s issue to date but we get this is board is an emotional exercise for some of you more fragile guys.
Archie has objectively sucked for one year in his whole career. He’s earned another year without the low-T crew making gang signs and throwing down hollow ultimatums...

Read my initial post, I posited that we didn’t appear to be leading for any recruit and you turn this into personal “comments”.
You seem to have missed the entire point.
Again, it doesn’t appear that we are leading for anyone.
Since 2002 .. Mr Charlie>BIODTL>Jack Straw>Natural Mystic>TMP v1, TMP v2. I've had 6.
This one since Peegs left and it was unbanned..
Why? How many have you had? And what the fk does it have to do with your poor fact free debating ability?
I ran into Charley PhoggI'd prefer Charley Phogg to Mr Charlie
You don't think we're leading for Galloway or Leal? I would say Galloway is all but a lock, possibly waiting to see if a team like Kansas offers after the national championships in LA this week but I bet you see a commitment from here in the next month if not weeks.
I would say at this point IU is also the leader for Leal. It does appear that he may be wanting to take some more time and explore his options but if he had to commit tomorrow I would put money on IU.
Matt Cross who wants to decide in the next couple week is pretty much down to IU and South Carolina.
It seems to be a 2-way race right now between Georgia and IU for Diarra. I think Diarra will gain some larger offers after his summer performance and that may potentially push us done the list.
But don't get it twisted, IU is in good to great shape as it stands today with at least 3-4 prospects.
In a word.....NO.
And thanks for making my point for me. If everyone is holding out for a "better" offer, then that is proof positive we aren't their number 1 choice.
Exploring options and waiting on a Kansas offer sounds like unsure recruits, don’t you think?May ask who then do you believe is leading for Galloway or Leal?
If it meant that someone else could accept an IU offer and I’d be forced to go elsewhere, I would commit . . . If that’s really where I wanted to go.As of right now, the people who get paid to follow recruiting disagree with you. They think that IU is in the lead for both Leal and Galloway. Are you basing this in anything more than the fact that they didn't commit on the spot? I doubt it.
If you were a 17 year old kid would you pass up the opportunity to have paid trips to universities around the country with adults kissing your ass just because you knew which school you wanted to attend already?

There are four openings. Once one or two players commit others will jump in for fear of missing out on playing for IU.You don't think we're leading for Galloway or Leal?

That’s because we waited so long to offer them. If you wait to offer especially after being shot down by others it makes it seem like you only want them for that reason.It certainly would.......but you have to admit we are having a hell of a time convincing top 100-150 types from Indiana like Galloway & Leal to commit, especially since Purdue isn't a realistic option for either. At this point Archie is having to work his ass off for that borderline top 25 class. And we have to get these guys and have some moderate success this Fall to cash in on the '21 class. This is Archie's Season on the Brink.

I'd happily pass that up. Now, if I had the opportunity for a full ride at one of the top 10 academic institutions in the US, Standford or Northwestern, I'd take either in a heart beat
By the way, regarding Galloway or Leal and I quote: “Archie Miller has placed a heavy premium on his state since his hiring and has reaped the rewards of the time invested with a number of highly ranked in-state prospects. They don't have a 2020 commitment yet and many had believed that whenever they offered the duo on the same day last month, that they'd get at least one to commit in short order. Instead, each felt more than comfortable playing their recruitment out a bit further, which has caused some concern throughout the state. They need to kick their 2020 class off soon which makes a commitment from Galloway or Leal a priority.”
Do I get to live rent free forever? It’s starting to get get a little crowded since several people from the Water Cooler moved in.
Since when? Yesterday?There’s one person that IU has offered that has turned IU down and committed elsewhere and that’s Ethan Morton.
HA! How dumb do you think these kids are? Everyone knows if you have a pulse you can play at IU right now. There’s no reason to commit if you have other options.There are four openings. Once one or two players commit others will jump in for fear of missing out on playing for IU.
Luke Brown is starting to look pretty good!HA! How dumb do you think these kids are? Everyone knows if you have a pulse you can play at IU right now. There’s no reason to commit if you have other options.

Archie has been throwing out offers like they’re candy on Halloween.
I think they're far smarter than you are.HA! How dumb do you think these kids are? Everyone knows if you have a pulse you can play at IU right now. There’s no reason to commit if you have other options.
How about 2019 kids?IU has 15 offers out for 4 open scholarships. Exactly one of the 15 has committed elsewhere. So no, “everybody is turning down IU” was not practically applied. Try again.

Those were before last season. Maybe take a break and observe for a bit.
What should I say if we land a local 3 star? Should we throw a parade?What are you gonna say when Galloway commits to us soon?

You will be able to add a lot more to that list with another year like last. I can't remember a more important year for a coach in terms of getting momentum for the program.IU has 15 offers out for 4 open scholarships. Exactly one of the 15 has committed elsewhere.

I fear that if we miss the tournament again we will be unable to land the recruits we need to start competing for final 4s, and (at IU) that's the ultimate goal. IU can't afford to miss Leal, Cross, Furst, and Lander because of a poor showing like they did Morton and Brooks. Those recruits are absolutely imperative for Archie to get the program going.
I agree..I don't know why our fanbase isn't more positive about the direction and momentum of the program.Those are honest fears. Luckily Archie is still recruiting and appears like he would like to win some games this year.
As a coach in a high-turnover profession, I’m guessing he has a list of imperatives in his head every season but I’m sure board ultimatums will give him the extra juice he needs. And we all know saying something fifty times a day makes if exactly 50X as effective. Simple math...
