Interesting for reasons better not said. But I think you're right. I doubt they got many, if any, out-of-town candidates. And if I had to guess, not many experienced in-city guys applied either. Sad thing is, I don't think their players were being "poached". They were willingly leaving for better situations. But yes, I think this hire will help them retain their players and start to build something.

Indication from a frantic IUBB Twitter is both visits went really well and could get commitments as early as today ? ........... We shall see, also Knecht had an in home that went very well . If Woodson and company could pull all three that is a drastic change in the dynamic of the roster moving forward . We will see how everything meshes together BUT a much needed talent has possibly been added * fingers crossed .

Post Sparks commitment, IU has taken some major swings on top portal talent and whiffed. Seemed as though Love from UNC was set to be down to IU and Mizzou post zoom meeting IU falls off in favor of UM. Timberlake has never materialized anything post zoom/in home visit. All early reports seemed to indicate that Jamison Battle from Minn was an almost lock for IU and now things have shifted towards him going to Ohio State. Zoom meeting with Shedrick and Knecht seem to be as far as things will progressed right now. However a big week on campus as the dead period ends with 2 guys 7'0 center and former McDonalds AA Ware and Harvard Transfer Ledlum (18.8ppg) will both be on campus for official visits. With 4 open scholarships and a long way to go its important to stay patient but IU definitely has major holes to fill and has to fill them
