Imo, Wilkerson wouldn't be within 100 miles of any list. He may be the only reason IU is above .500 right now, but he hasn't really made a mark. Same with Ballo. Same with Langford. Good players, sure, but they didn't do squat for IU.
My list of 1-2 year impact guys is relatively short: Isiah (#1 by a mile), McGinnis, Edwards, Smart/Garrett (title), Zeller (brought huge momentum to the program just by signing). Even though JHS didn't help move IU forward much, he deserves Honorable Mention simply for abusing Purdue. And while Eric Gordon is an all-time recruit and phenomenal college player, what did he really do for IU? Honorable Mention.
As you can see, I focused much more on what a player brought to IU than talent alone. If I were to simply focus on talent, the list would be quite different.
It would be great if you found a hobby that took more of your time so that you posted on this board less and didn't waste space with BS. When we could ignore people on the other platform, it wasn't as much of a problem, but now that we're forced to see your drivel multiple times on every thread in the forum, it's tiresome.

@hoosiers94 I'm not even going to respond directly. He had a temper tantrum simply because I said Wilkerson isn't one of IU's best 1-2 year players ever. I'm not worth his time, and snowflakes aren't worth mine.
Luke Recker should be on the list. Not first, but on the list.
Also, 1-2 year guys who were much better after transferring...Andre Owens, DelRay Brooks, Jordan Crawford, Ben Allen, Logan Duncomb, Kanaan Carlyle.
if Funderburke stays we win at least 1 title
Such a great call. Many, including myself, tend to forgot he was (briefly) a Hoosier. I don't know if there's a way to find out, but I'd bet he's mentioned less than 10 times on this entire site.
That 1989 recruiting class was ridiculous: Cheaney, both Grahams, and Funderburke (plus Leary and Lawson). Holy s---.

Dude was funny as hell to.. I had a class with him .. he cracked us all up daily. he left after Fall semester of 1990.
My mind might be playing tricks on me, but I recall a guy shooting a FT-line jumper and LF swatting it ... and he was, like, five feet away in the middle of the lane. I can't verify that, but it's what I remember.
