I was high on Sisley. A former pastor of my current church lives around Heritage Hills H.S. now. While we were visiting I told him that I was going to email him if Sisley went to IU.
Now I'm confused; what's bsmitty to do, upset because PU lost Sisley, happy because he's (supposedly!) an IU fan, what?
I know $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$! Big offer came through this weekend, right?

I think the deciding factor was me telling him to always remember that there’s no movie called “Boilers” back in June.😉 He’s a good player, & a very nice young man, glad to see he pulled the trigger.
Seen him evey yr in high school. Including some Jr High games..
Solid piece .Like many he'll just get better with better players around him...
Better than avge athlete..Nice mid range game..
Congratulations to the coaching staff...

I like telling Boiler fans that they are still Hoosiers.😉
Miller Kopp, slightly more athletic, can be a contributor not a star.
Damn. I was hoping for a higher ceiling than Kopp. Does he do goofy tic-toc stuff?

I watched him play against our Hatchets twice. He was very impressive and to me he looks bigger than 6'7". Perhaps he just looks long. I am very glad he is a Hoosier.
Great pick-up for IU! Let's bring in the best from our state and then add in others where needed.
He looked far more naturally aggressive than Kopp.....the travel team highlights were all hustle and inside toughness. One shooting issue may be that he's got a low release---kind of a push shot. 'Good enough for Montverde' is to be noted.

I I I dont' have a Facebook account. How do you share your opinion without using I?
agree, he seems to me to have a better nose for the ball and not afraid to mix it up. Best thing he could've done was go to Montverde. That shows a guy that wants to improve. I watched him in an aau game this summer against a really good scoring guard and his eyes lit up every time he saw Sisley on him. If he's going to play out on the floor in college, he's got to get more comfortable staying with perimeter players. I've actually heard his defense praised but on this day he was on skates.
Terrible scouting report.
Spot on with this. Seen him dozens of times. Played in our sectional and conference with my high school, good player nothing outstanding. Kopp is a good comparison.
Does it bother you because he talks about church things as well as IU? Because there are multiple posters who talk about far less important things on here. Being from Southern Indiana myself, one of my best friend's son is a coach at Perry Central HS and he and Sisley's dad coached at Forest Park at one time. I imagine Van Pastor Man had same knowledge. It seems like something set you off against him. But he has the right to post here as do you and I .
Yes. TMP is a freaking weirdo..
He will be far better than Kopp. I don’t think he will be afraid to shoot as an upperclassman.
you all act like Kopp was Tim Priller, he started 4 years in the big 10, Sisley a very solid addition and a great in state recruiting win. a year at Montverde can only help him, will he be an all American one day, I don't see that, very happy we got him, look forward to him having a productive career
Kopp is a decent comparison in a couple ways. Good outside shooter. Not great handles. They kinda look similar.
But Trent is taller/longer and A LOT more athletic.
I’d say Trent’s upside is a fair bit higher than Miller ever got to. And him choosing to spend a year far away from home in a college prep atmosphere shows he’s pretty serious about meeting that upside.
His instagram commitment picture is savage. Scoreboard in the background has IU beating Purdue.
I think we’re gonna like Trent a lot.

His reason for going to prep school was to face tougher competition and to become more of a guard/wing and improve his ball handling. I can see him being a 4 year contributor with a chance to play a bigger role as he gets stronger and more experienced in the college game.
My son has covered his brother and Trent since middle school. I believe his brother and sister both attend IU. I was hoping Blake might miss basketball and try to walk on.
