IUFLA Posted May 26, 2023 Report Share Posted May 26, 2023 Also listened to the Hoosier Hysterics podcast where they interviewed Kel'el and his Mom...They ask some cringeworthy stuff, but there's some good content in there...Highlights... He is named after Superman He knew he was coming to IU after putting on the jersey during his visit...He told the assistants, but didn't tell Coach Woodson until the next day...Coach's repsonse was, "Let's get to work." Said he felt the energy the first time he stepped into an empty SSAH... He's playing on a USA Team this summer (can't remember which one)... One of the HH guys made a great statement at the end though... Paraphrased...Kel'el, you're one of us...Forever...Both on and off the court...When your playing days are over, you'll still be one of us, and we'll always have your back... 6 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We've probably not put two guys with the raw talent of Ware and Mgbako on a basketball court since at least the early 90s. These two have a chance to write a very special chapter of the IU basketball story this season. Edited May 29, 2023 by KoB2011 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One side of me hopes he makes it as it would be good experience and mean he is a top player. The other side wants him in Bloomington getting comfortable with the team. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dgambill Posted August 10, 2023 Report Share Posted August 10, 2023 Hope he is ready for the physicality of the good ol B1G. Someday I can dream of a conference whose football season ends in January and doesn’t continue on into March. 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe our new conference partners can convince a change that helps everyone come tournament time. Luckily the rest of our front court this season has the size and strength to offset the lumbering big men in the conference. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"there may not be a better match for Ware than where he is with the Indiana basketball program." Im stoked for this season, and he is probably the main reason why. If he can live up to his talent/expectations this team will be dangerous. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"there may not be a better match for Ware than where he is with the Indiana basketball program." Motor, effort and energy are certainly a concern with Ware, but we gotta love the below from that article. "In a five-game stretch against UConn, Michigan State, Villanova, Washington State and UCLA, Ware averaged 12.6 points and 6.0 rebounds per game while shooting 61.8 percent on 2s and 50 percent from the field overall." Those aren't empty stats against cupcakes That's really strong performance against high level competition. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you watch the embedded video they also talk about Mgbako. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
