Big Rey

[ILLST25]

I know we've got a visit planned with a player who has P5 offers.

What spring recruiting will actually look like is a whole different story.

He won’t be able to visit until at least April 15th and probably longer due to the corona virus right?

 

[redbird Recon]

I think I’ve accepted the reality that we are going to be worse next year than this year. That is just sad.

You're either venting or trolling. Unless we lose one of Horne, Reeves, or Fisher, I have a hard time believing we'll be worse.

We may be bad, but I doubt we'll be worse.

I doubt they'll be having visits to closed campuses.

We lost our top 2 scorers from last year (in MVC play). You better hope that Horne can score as the primary option.

No, we didn't.

Copeland 14.3
Horne 11.3
Fisher 10.6

My bad they passed Hillsman the last two games. So they lose two of top 4 scorers. Either way I don’t see next year being any better.

Who is this roster going to pass in the MVC? Bradley?

Why vent this out in a thread about Rey? Do these 3 defections actually make you feel worse about next year?

Why does it matter what thread? It’s where the conversation went.

I don’t feel better or worse other than the fact something is wrong when you have 1/4th of your team that doesn’t develop due to coaching (development and overuse).

However, who does this team pass next year?

So tell us who? Why should this be some big secret?

Also If he truly has P5 offers, meaning multiple, I think you’re completely drunk if you realistically expect him to come to the 230th ranked team in college basketball last year

Wow. That’s impressive. Indiana State the gold standard of MVC success. I can’t wait to brag about beating a team coached by someone more inept than Muller.

If the season started today I’d say we are 7th or 8th.

Horne is ok, but he’s not Bryson. Unless our next two recruits are unbelievable we don’t have an all MVC player again.

Don’t waste your time. I trust recons recruiting info about as much as Carole Basking when she said she didn’t feed her husband to a tiger.

Hypothetically, if you add a guard the caliber of junior Daishon Knight and a big the caliber of sophomore Phil Fayne, where would you put the team?

 

[BirdGrad2011]

You guys are clowns. ISU is one of the top places in the Valley when you factor in facilities and location. It can also offer immediate playing time. Not many P5s can do that if they are recruiting against mid majors.

Is Dan Muller still coaching? Not first.

So you are saying we have the 2nd best guard and best post player Muller recruited coming in? I find it very unlikely those level of recruits come to ISU.

Sure if if those type of players come we are top 4.

Lol. ISU is the bottom of the barrel with Muller.

 

[BirdGrad2011]

Howard Fleming is the real deal as long as he can stay healthy. Fleming, Horne, and Reeves will make a damn good backcourt. Andrews had good offers. Washington looks like he may be solid. Josiah Strong put up big numbers at his Juco stop. The Russian I’m not so sure about, but we have 2 more scholarships to play with.

This team will be better. Is it enough to save Mullers job yet? I have no idea.

We're in agreement that first isn't in the cards.

I'm saying a 13 ppg guard and 9 ppg big.

Last year's crop and this year's crop have some promise.
