Hopefully an expansion of Hurley's connection to the 'Adams Family'. Jalen, Brendan and now Darius.;)
 
Man, reading this thread provided me one thing: reaffirmation. It reaffirmed how grateful I am the staff actually recruits and not posters on this board.

Sure is - and interesting to think it’s coming off a weekend that he spent with two other big targets.

Waiting on Trilly.
Trilly put the Adams gif in a week ago lol.
 
Awesome recruit, congrats to staff for working hard and bringing him in. Darius has a ton of potential, and with more strength, size, and conditioning, plus growing into his body, he will be even better. He is a natural scorer, Hurley and staff will do a nice job of developing him.

Did he - didn’t see that. This one was 99%, now we wait to see what trickle down effect is. Did this past weekend with Mullins and Reibe, a weekend after Reibe did a weekend with Mullins at IU. It all feels good.

Some of our guys over the years had screwy rankings. Drummond was the second best recruit after Anthony Davis and Caron was top 10 on multiple recruiting services but the other ones didn't even bother ranking him.

Drummond reclassed last minute and some places never moved him into the class of 2011.
 
It's coming & may shape up to be the best class ever, top to bottom.
I Hope Please GIF

Indiana fans on twitter are celebrating thinking that this takes us out of the Mullins race. Me thinks they're in for a rude awakening next month
I admit to feeling shaky about the ability to secure 2 top 20ish guards at the same position with similar profiles and 3 top quality players already on board who also justify minutes, but I take hope in recent comments by Mullin's dad as well as our past teams which have had 6 players that received time in the backcourt with some minutes at the 3.

Newton, Jackson, Hawkins, Joey, Alleyne, Diarra = 6
Bouknight, Jalen Adams, Vital, Gilbert, Brendan Adams, = 5 and RJ Cole (possibly his red shirt year)
 
I'm sure I'm missing someone obvious, but who was the last player to commit to us in a live broadcast commitment show?

Isaiah Abraham did last year because Patrick Ngongba was in the background and everyone ran with it as making him a lock to also come here despite all the evidence saying otherwise

I’m not sure if it was live but Abraham did a commitment announcement on video.

I believe Ahmad and Isaiah committed within two weeks of one another via livestream.

Honestly don’t think it impacts much at all. Could actually help the cause if they like each other each other and see how their games compliment one another. Also if he sees that Adams is an intentional signing that aligns with a culture he wants to play in. Can see them together as the 2 and 3 without any issue. Their games are actually quite different.

He'd have brought his boot too.

it would be tight but everyone could average 20mpg give or take

PG- Aidan / Nowell
SG- Ball / Adams
