If Braylon doesn’t choose IU? I say good riddance!!!!$$$ I am at the point where I hope we get the recruits but if we don't I won't get upset about it. I am getting to old to worry about where a 17 year old kid wants to go to college. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fkfootball Posted October 8 Report Share Posted October 8 I don't think Woodson is the issue. Teri Moren cannot get a 5 star here to save her life. And she's a great coach with a great program. Cignetti is 6-0 and just lost his only 4 star recruit. Look at schools like UofL and Maryland and they out recruit us in every sport. IU isn't an Urban environment. It's a turn off to some kids. Put IU in Indianapolis and we'd recruit better in all 24 sports. 1 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maedhros Posted October 8 Report Share Posted October 8 11 hours ago, Sea Turtle said: Why don't these guys want to play for Indiana? Taking the bait here, I know... Guys do want to play for Indiana. Braylon had offers from Kansas, Michigan, Kentucky, Alabama, Michigan State, Duke, among many others, including Purdue. He stated his preference for Indiana over all those schools by naming us in his final three. Braylon can want to play for several schools. He can only pick one. If he does pick UConn, I'm sure some will use that event to troll this board over Indiana's lack of on-court success. For me, this recruitment has already highlighted how much else we have going for us, that we stood toe to toe with the two-time national champions regardless. Now what happens if we find some on-court success too, with the six transfers from the portal that also wanted to play for Indiana? 👀 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tdhoosier Posted October 8 Report Share Posted October 8 I don't think it's a mystery for why elite players choose one destination over another. 1. Coach/system. How will they develop in college and what/who gives them the best chance of playing at the next level. 2a. Money (the money is peanuts compared to what they can get at the next level, a pay cut in the present is an acceptable concession, if they think it means more for their long-term earnings) 2b. Location (Sure one may desire one location over another, but it still takes second seat to becoming an attractive prospect for the NBA) ... ... Down the list are fan base, facilities, education, etc. Sure these are factors. But if a school has none of the top 3, these smaller factor on their own will not sway a decision. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kyhoosier29 Posted October 8 Report Share Posted October 8 Double the NIL Lifetime benefits Everybody knows you vs just a number at UCONN Close to home - easy for fam/friends Bloomington vs Storrs Education on par or superior The only reasons he could possibly want to go to UCONN …. likes Hurley more than Woodson, thinks it’s a better shot to win, and bc he thinks Hurley is the better option to get him to the league. I don’t buy the last one. I don’t see how he doesn’t choose IU based on the comparisons. Just doesn’t make sense. I’m guessing IU. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually, Haralson selected ND due to coaching: "I trust Coach Shrews with my game. He had the vision for me that I couldn't turn down, and ultimately I trust him to help me get to my end goal." Haralson explained what he believes his role will be at Notre Dame next season. "Obviously the main thing, the thing that stuck out to me is those guys can shoot, and that's something that I thrive well around," Haralson said. "That's something I have here at La Lumiere, and that's something that I really want to be a part of. Coach Shrews, he was Jaylen Brown and Jayson Tatum's shooting coach, and that's something that I feel like I need to take the next step in my game. So I trust him to help get me there." 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
