dgambill Posted September 6, 2023 Report Share Posted September 6, 2023 Since Gunn was an Archie recruit I’m wondering who will be the first Indiana kid Woody lands…they’ve definitely prioritized recruiting a more national footprint.

I live in Florida and have no clue what people think about the state kids. Has the well of talent run dry and we just have no one worth recruiting or do people think we are going to regret backing off some of the local kids? Who do we think would be the guy that Woody would go after? Honest question? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is my question. So it’s more a talent issue in the state more so than we are just prioritizing outside recruits where our assistant coaches have ties.

Maedhros Posted September 7, 2023 Report Share Posted September 7, 2023 (edited) Flory Bidunga and Kanon Catchings were the only '24 recruits from Indiana ranked commensurate with the rest of our targets in the class. We had the former in for multiple visits, and if rumors were true came very close to flipping the latter. In '25, we're all in on Jalen Haralson and seemingly in good shape with Trent Sisley. I don't think our lack of in state recruits is a Woodson problem. It's a problem with the quality of the classes. This staff is clearly aiming high, and when there's a target of that caliber, Woodson and staff have been on it.

Yes I'd like to see a kid from Indiana on the team every year. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a guy I know who has a lot of contacts at ND he thinks they are in good shape with Sisley and Haralson. Shrews is going to big a big big big thorn in our side. Only thing that could help going forward is if a kid can’t get into ND academically. With that being said if we get Liam and make him a one and done first round pick that pipeline for Montverde will be insanely fruitful. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Proud2BAHoosier Posted September 7, 2023 Report Share Posted September 7, 2023 Just my 2 pennies for what they're worth.... I think mom and dad Sisley would like to follow their son's basketball after HS. Bloomington is a heck of a lot closer from Heritage Hills than South Bend. Again, JMO.... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steubenhoosier Posted September 7, 2023 Report Share Posted September 7, 2023 Not saying that ND and Shrew won’t be a player in this recruitment, but CMW showed how he trusted even a limited Race to have a wider opportunity to show his skills. I can’t help but think that Ware and MM will even further the possibilities of the position Trent would play in our offense. Two years of seeing that will have to have an impact. At least this far, Shrew’s teams have been guard centric. I don’t recall him having a big who would step out. They were more banger types. CMW will be able to sell his ability to coach up bigs to a level that Shrew has yet to reach 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FKIM01 Posted September 8, 2023 Report Share Posted September 8, 2023 Meh. I don't know why everyone thinks ND is all of a sudden such a killer program. How many times have we seen a successful coach change programs and take a significant step backwards? {cough}{cough} Archie Miller {cough} I think it's fair to see if Shrewsberry can duplicate his success at a new school before we concede all the top Indiana players to Notre Dame.

He's fairly charismatic for a Purdueish guy. If he keeps notre Dame in the top 25 and recruits the state well, I wouldn't be against him being a candidate when the man retires. However, he has to do it with the big boys consistently. Will notre Dame pony up in the NIL game for him to compete with top 50 talent?
