    Yeah they are cleared or we never would have gotten #1 in the polls. And as of now i think VO goes especially if we get vonleh. Too much competition his draft stock could be hurt by staying. Zeller is gone. So as of now i think we are fine on scholarships. So need to hope 2 guys go elsewhere for PT if we want anya and Vonleh

    Now that i think about it the same thought process may apply to sheehey if we got Vonleh

      Here's the link:



      Perea and Jurkin apparently have not yet been cleared by the NCAA's Eligibility Center. Evaluations often take longer for foreign athletes. Perea is from Colombia, although he went to high school at northern Indiana's La Lumiere School. Jurkin is from South Sudan but attended United Faith Christian Academy in North Carolina.

      If that evaluation extends deep into November and Elston remains sidelined, IU could have some inside depth issues.
      The poster "pacertom" since this forum began (and before!). I changed my name here to "Slick Pinkham" in honor of the imaginary player That Bobby "Slick" Leonard picked late in the 1971 ABA draft (true story!).

          Fort Wayne Sentinel...hmmm...it's hard for me to say, but I thought Peegs or someone on Peegs said they are cleared. GUess we will find out on Thursday in the exhibition game.

              He's pushing the decision back a day due to the storms on the east coast.

                Anya is absolutely committing here IMO, way too many connections to the IU program. Surreal. Williams must have flicked over the domino. 5 years ago Crean was trying to super glue a recruiting class together headlined by Nick Williams and Malik Story now kids are tripping over themselves to commit to IU.

                  I am significantly less confident than you at our chances with Anya. I think it's 50/50. Momma will have a big say and the proximity of NC State will surely entice her.

                    Isn't Anyas mom really religious and thats really important to her? Or was that Williams, but if it was Anya we should have him on lock down with Crean afterall.

                    If we do get Anya though, I can't believe that Vonleh would go somewhere else. He WILL get playing time here. And I would imagine he would want a place where he can win a championship his freshman year, since hes likely not to stay more than a year.

                      Idk about Anya. He should be dominating HS competition. But he's not. HS 6'8 270, how is he not destroying HS competition. I understand he has a huge wing span and he's got potential. But he just reminds me of sullinger without the offensive game. Idk. Hope he proves me wrong. I don't think he would help us out a lot right away, he will take time to develop. Vonleh is ready now though. I really want him.

                        Anya has the physical tools and a great work ethic. But he does need some coaching no doubt about that. But look what Crean has done with the guys he has. Either developed more than people thought or faster.

                        So either he has an eye for talent and spots people who are undervalued. Or he is able to coach them up. Either way, if he wants Anya I trust that he know what hes doing.

                          Very true, I definitely trust Crean knows what he's doing.

                            Mama likes Coach Crean though, plus he knows Vic and Stanford Robinson.

                              He hung out with Robinson and Troy Williams at Hoosier Hysteria. Robinson is really doing a good job at recruiting for IU lol.

                                Plus he played AAU for Coach Johnson. But even with all that my gut tells me NC State tho I hope I'm wrong. I don't think we get Vonleh either. Boy would I like to be wrong here.

                                Also he said on Twitter would commit in next two week. Not tomorrow.
