Crootin Update

I get it, I'm just saying that when you say someone is 'locked up,' then it's up in the air a few days later...it was never locked up. I'm fine with predictions, but posting 'Davis to State' everywhere and saying Davis is 'locked up' is going to make people assume it's an absolute done deal.

It would be a miss. That's all I'm saying. We can't rip on some people for getting it wrong then turn around and say 'it's recruiting' when we get it wrong.

if it ends up being the only miss of the basketball season- it will be ok

I'm more than ok with our basketball recruiting, obviously, with or without Davis. I'm saying it would be a miss for you.

I hope he bases his decision on the potential future of the programs not the past- state's looks great!

IYOK....you think Kegler calls him or just stays out of the way and lets him make his own decision?

I know playing with certain players only plays a small part, but I can't help but think he sees who's coming and is seeing himself playing alongside our other signees in a class rated in the top 5 in the nation. I haven't looked, but someone said Indiana's wasn't ranked very highly. I'm not sure.

Not IYOK but it looks to me like Malik Newman is our best recruiter based on his tweet. And I would think his friends will be in his ear tomorrow.

Not saying it will happen but it Davis does decide to pass on us and signs with IU. Do y'all think we go ahead and try and sign Lard or Willis? Or a guy of Howlands caliber with his pedigree wait and try to take a higher rated power forward in the late signing period like Holman last year

Its early, welcome to basketball recruiting, we have a 4 star guard in Curtis Jones and a 3 star instate kid. But we do have a McD's AA at center, a McD's AA at SG, a 4 star PG, and several other 3 and 4 star guys next year. Freshmen aren't the only ones who play basketball. Not to mention still going after Thon Maker and another 1-2 kids being added.
