There's Markus Burton!!! Fantastic day for Indiana basketball!
Lots of rumors of Sherrell announcing tonight.

Btown banners guys have shifted back to done deal. I bet we are giving him 4-5 million if he is cancelling the Michigan State visit.
At this stage of the portal process, I'm a little bit surprised. Shouldn't be as TJ Inman put up a list of possible roster candidates at the start of this topic. With Ryan Carr on board I had expectations of the NBA model of 2 or 3 superstar starters and a group of complementary players. Burton and Sherrell are both fine players but at their respective positions there are a half dozen guys I'd take over them. I'm assuming Indiana has identified Burton and Sherrell as their main stud superstars. Unrealistic expectations on my part but I thought Indiana would shoot a little higher.Why is everyone counting out Sisley as a possible starter next season? He showed some signs and w a yr of development could be a starter
Because we have entered the offseason and this is when every IU players get hyped up big time regardless of how they did the last season or what school they are coming from . It happens every single spring and summer. If we land sherrell I have no doubt some guys on btown banners will have us penciled in as a top fifeteen team in the nation by next week.
Hyped up big time is gross hyperbole, Eeyore..
Pulling for DeVries to coach up the roster and lead IU to a decent 2026-27 season.
(and we don't have Sherrell yet)
If we get sherrell we be interesting to see how much we spent on those two and what is left.
Had to look up Hall after you hyped him. I'm highly impressed with his 3-point shooting. Very rare for a freshman to finish 10th in the country on 3 point percentage. 43.82% on 117 attempts is rather awesome.Per Jeff Rabjohns of peegs.com...a name I have been banging the drum on for a while is getting attention from IU: Jake Hall of New Mexico is a name to know. I've been told Indiana is trying to get him on campus and will have a shot to secure him, if he does make that visit. Hall is a fantastic (and I mean fantastic three-point shooter) and he has three years of eligibility remaining. He's one of my favorite guys still available and would fit great in IU's system.
44% is great. Does that translate to 44 in the BigTen... likely not , maybe 36% :). I can still live with that.
And there it is done deal now if David Lee Roth predicts it!https://twitter.com/i/status/2043813637022724386
I’ve been saying this forever! These kids and even a lot of their parents do not care or even recall how good IU once was!If we are unable to get anybody worth a danm this offseason, this whole basketball program would need a full on re-brand! Start from scratch and change everything up. I’m talking new unis/warmups, all brand new state of the art facilities, etc. Get rid of all the program history talk other than the 1976 team, and just do some things that will attract players outside of the $$$! maybe updated stripper/escort services, like Louisville got with Bidunga!? I’m all outa ideas though!
We should of had new uniforms and warmups 15 years ago. I don't care about what Mike Woodson did in 1980 anymore. At some point they need to quit living in the past.
start w the unis, then tear down the Hall and build a new, modern field house that seats about the same number of people - then, the students can move near the court like Duke
Serious question.
What do the unis and the hall have to do with a winning program?
Do you seriously think that recruits are not going to come to IU because of the uniforms?
IU just needs a good coach, plain and simple.
Cameron field house is almost 90 years old. I doubt anyone is talking about tearing it down.
Good grief!
Duke, UNC Battle for $1.8M Alabama Transfer Averaging 11.1 PPG
The line above is the title of a sports page article in the Durham Today, April 13, 2026. You all know who they're talking about. I like the price! LOL

Reibe
Hall
clark

First of all, no one said doing those things would bring more players- the point was, stop selling history and have some new facilities to help attract players - get the shiny stuffI’ve been saying this forever!

Cameron is a lot more fan friendly than is SSAH- now, if someone had the balls to put students along the court, maybe. Uniforms w names was hat I meant by changing unis
im old and feel this way
Sherrell better end up being a done deal or the btown banners guys are going to needed a crisis intervention. Hopefully David Lee Roth did not lead them astray or they will be coming for him
