He can't play on the perimeter at all at this point in time - we've seen two different coach staffs arrive at that conclusion, and both needed help on the wing. for as athletic as he can be, he sure does struggle at getting beat at the first step 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zlinedavid Posted April 18, 2022 Report Share Posted April 18, 2022 22 minutes ago, Coach Robby said: "Woody won't be able to recruit or connect to this generation." said a bunch of losers last year 😘 Anyone that said that doesn’t know Mike Woodson. If anything, that’s his best skill: connecting with people. There’s a long list of people from past, present and future generations that respect the hell out of Woody, and you don’t get to that point without knowing how to connect with people. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sure our guards need to shoot better overall, X improved down the stretch, Kopp can shoot he's very sporadic. Malik > Logan D. IMO On paper, it's looking pretty good. Malik definitely seems better than Logan but only basing that on rankings as I haven't seen either play. For this year, this just makes us better where we were already strong. What we really need is for JHS to be all that and Bates to have his sophomore jump. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IUrocker Posted April 18, 2022 Report Share Posted April 18, 2022 Love that we have Kenya on staff. Woodson knew what he was doing when he bumped him up to associate head coach. Hopefully he stays for a long time. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The answer to this is….in the “Star” era….never. The last time we had commitments from two 5 star players was 2004: DJ White and Josh Smith, but Smith never made it to campus. So congratulations Woody….this is theoretically THE best recruiting class in the past 23 years at Indiana. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Euroclydon Posted April 18, 2022 Popular Post Report Share Posted April 18, 2022 Great addition. Congrats to Malik and his family. Congrats to CMW and the staff for another big time recruiting accomplishment. The funny thing is, when other programs land a top level recruit they don't seem too worried about who that may impact and cause to leave. I never read anything from Duke, Kansas, UNC, etc. fretting over who may decide to leave if they add another five star recruit. The question I ask is - if a current player decides they can't stay on the team if IU adds a great player, does IU really need them? Another question would be, what Power 5 conference team will you transfer to where you can just step in and be a starter getting lots of minutes with no competition for other great recruits if you don't think you can compete at IU? 12 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which P5 teams could TJD transfer to and be an immediate starter? I’d say at least 75% of them. Marquee P5 teams….different story. But TJD would start in a heartbeat at Oregon State, Northwestern, Mississippi State, etc etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Such a great point. If someone wants to leave because they don't have a clear path to minutes here, let them. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IUFLA Posted April 18, 2022 Report Share Posted April 18, 2022 (edited) 50 minutes ago, iuswingman said: so does anyone have a player comparison? In our 4 out, 1 in offense that we are supposedly trying to move towards, is he definitely going to be the 1 in? 2 Players in the Big 10. I think he's a lot like Julius Marble of MSU at this point, with the ceiling to go higher...Better hands, and I think he can be just as good as a defender...And he has the footwork and soft touch of a Zed Key of Ohio State, but is not as stocky, and more athletic...
