Wilkerson

Right… the zero banner biggest tournament choker in history is who we want to listen to.
So who do you listen to? Sounds to me you only listen to yourself in a vacuum! Painter may not have won the BIG ONE, but he has out done the last 7 coaches IU has had bye a country mile, but only the village idiot would down play someone who at least gets to the tournament unlike IU who can't even sniff the tournament! And some people wonder why IU is in this sinking HOLE!
 
Starting to think DeVries is too small timey for IU. We shall see
Small timey! I guess Woodson was big timey, he bought who you thought. Coach D is not on your timeline or mine. Stop whining until December although quite a few in the forums love to keep the whine going. Bunch of Cheeseheads. Said he was going to build a team not a springboard to the NBA.
 
The other uncommitted fella that’s there this weekend might be more important. Though symbolically, if Wilkerson picks UK after visiting IU…not great.

I hope he doesent but is he really the cant miss kid? I know the Hoosiers need players but that ppg average and shooting % will drop immensely moving on to the B1G or SEC. Parker Stewart #s at best.
You don't know that, there's no real way to know how they'll do moving up a tier. Stewart is a example of a player who didn't do well, Clayton and Knecht are examples of players that did.

There's other metrics that imply this kid being a triple threat at the next level - the type of player that wins championships and one IU hasn't had since Ferrell- that's why major programs are chasing him. Even if his percentage drops a drastic 10% then that's a 37% shooter at the least. He's quick, he's physical, decent handle, has good mechanics on his shot and a quick release. None of that will be impacted by moving up. He may not be elite but still a really good prospect.

You think with your emotions too much which are severely biased and rarely grounded in knowledge or logic.

At West Virginia, after four weeks in Morgantown, DeVries only had 2 commitments (including his son).
True! And that team won the national title so people need to calm down!

It says a lot when the bar isn't even making the tournament. :rolleyes:

One thing to note. Wilkersons uncle is the track and field coach at UK.
They really should give these NIL dip weed transfer prospects a 24hr decision mandate after they leave campus. No need to get into a bidding war. See what there is to offer at IU and then they can take it leave it.

For 99 percent of these guys, this is their chance at the biggest annual “salary” they’ll have in their lives. Not a single one of us wouldn’t want to maximize a similar opportunity.
 
And we have the money. We have 10 million which is likely the best in the big ten or darn close to it
It does not have to be all about the money. Wilkerson is a senior. In your final season do you want to go to a program with a new coach that has not been to the tourney in 2 years and no players? Or go to a more established program with a new coach that went to the tournament last season?

I understand the shopping but if the only thing a kid wants is money, do you really want him on your team?

I guess all team uniforms need to be the same with a white uniform for home and black for away. Put a number on the back and a huge dollar sign on the front.
That’s pretty much all of them. At least the good ones
