  • Guy-Marc Michel signs LOI for IU
Welcome to Our Hoosier Board!

Most of the posters here have been around for nearly a decade now. You'll find their knowledge and insight to be second to none. We have a really strong community and value everyone's opinions.

Feel free to jump into any thread and voice your opinion with conviction. We love heated debates and even some fanbase ribbing from time to time. We pride ourselves on the lack of moderation needed to make this board successful.

Please remember that we have been around many years and have an astute ability to tell the difference between an immature, childish, trash-talking troll and a passionate fan voicing his or her opinion. It is at the discretion of Jazen and myself whether any moderating actions should be taken at any given time. It's a very, very rare thing. In other words, no worries....you'll be fine!

Cheers,
sirbrianwilson

The main positive in signing Michel is it will free up his scholarship for 2012. His size is the another positive, let's hope he contributes.

Here is what Hulls had to say about Michel, which is very encouraging and positive:

Hulls on Michel: “He played great.”

Scouting reports on the newest Hoosier, 7-foot-1 JUCO transfer Guy-Marc Michel, have been hard to come by. There’s not a lot of video out there, nor have many of the more well-known talent evaluators shared their thoughts. It’s even difficult to know what his stat line means since we’re mostly unfamiliar with the league his team played in.

The reports about Michel and how effective he’ll be for Indiana that do exist have stirred much debate among the faithful, too.

Well, here’s a first-hand report from Indiana point guard Jordan Hulls. He and the other current members of team played pick-up ball with Michel on Friday and Saturday of his visit.

Whether his assessment is any easier to interpret — since, let’s face it, a guy like Hulls is not going to badmouth a future teammate — could be debated.

But it’s something. So here goes.

SCOOP: How’d Guy do when he was in town for his visit?

HULLS: He played great. He meshed well with the guys. He’s a presence inside. He’s 7-1, he’s big, can block shots. And he used both hands in the post, so he’s a good presence down there and he just seemed to fit the team really well.

SCOOP: Is there anyone you’ve played against that you would compare him to?

HULLS: He’s big like Nix from Michigan State, and long like Lauderdale from Ohio State. He compares to those kind of guys. He’s a great big presence inside.

SCOOP: How is he offensively?

HULLS: He’s a true post player. He’s just another element for the team. Like I said he can use both hands. A couple of left-handed hook shots, we were like, ‘Wow this kid’s pretty good.’ We’re glad to have him.

SCOOP: How much feedback did Tom Crean seek from you guys?

HULLS: They asked a couple of the guys, and like I’m telling you, we thought he was a good presence inside.

if you dont sign the guy you also dont look like you are pushing someone out the door when you dont have any scholarships left to give out
At this point it doesn't matter what it looks like, everyone knows Crean has no problem yanking scholarships. I wonder if he gives them a parting gift............perhaps a T-shirt that says "You Got CREANED"
So who has announced they are transferring this year?

It's nothing that a John Hart signing couldn't fix.

Guy-Marc is better than any person on the entire sperm gobbling team. It's just another symbol of how much better IU is than lowly turdue.
Death to Signatures.
