This is the list of kids that IU is currently looking at and the status
of the recruiting process.

Robbie Eggars             6-11 PF  Cuyahoga Falls, OH
Richard Mandeville        7-0  C   LaCanada, CA 


IU sent Steve Hart and Brian Gilpin off to prep school and what that
means is that IU does not have to offer the kids scholarships for 1994.
Steve Hart though really wants to come back to IU and from what I've
heard of his athletic ability, we should let him. The kid has a 40'
vertical leap. As for Gilpin, no comment.


Players that IU is currently looking at:

  Jacque Vaughn  6-0 PG Pasadena, CA.  Bobby has already made an in-home
         visit with Jacque and Jacque has scheduled a campus visit to
         Indiana. I hear this kids name come up all the time and I think
         Bobby wants this kid a lot. He could step right in and start with
         the departure of Chris Reynolds. Kansas is also hot on his trail
         also but IU is offering a better financial package!!!!
         Additionally, this kid is an excellent student and he also knows
         Richard Mandeville. 

  Chris Kingsbury 6-5 2G Hamilton, OH. I saw this kid a lot at NIKE and
         was impressed. Didn't play as well in the title game. This kid 
         would fit in quite nicely at IU. Supposedly his final 2 choices
         are Indiana and Ohio State.

  Sherron Wilkerson 6-4 2G Jeffersonville, IN. This kid is a hell of a player
         with a great shot but academics could be tough. He has narrowed
         his choices to Indiana, Purdue, Xavier and Wisconsin.

  Jamal Robinson 6-6 WF New York, New York. Has just entered into the picture
         and has scheduled a visit to Bloomington. Report is that this kid is
         the top small forward in the NYC area. Has great athletic ability
         and can really get up and down the floor. He just doesn't have the
         shooting ability of Calbert Cheaney. If the kid can get his shot
         together he could contribute right away.

  Greg Williams 6-2 PG Reston, VA. Another kid that just entered into the
         picture. Poop is that he really wanted to go to Duke but Duke has a
         jam at guard so he wants to go to another Top 5 program. Has 
         scheduled a visit to Indiana. Hopefully IU can get either Williams
         or Vaughn.


I'd like to see us get Vaughn and Kingsbury.

Other news:

Pat Graham has finally recovered from all of his problems and has begun to
practice again. He re-injured his foot during final four week and then
had bone graft surgery this summer. Just before he began to practice a few
weeks ago he got the flu and that slowed him some more.

Malcolm Sims has looked pretty good playing with the other players.

Matt Nover had a very good trip to Europe with the Big Ten team that makes its
annual trip there. Greg Graham went last year and was the leading scorer.
He followed that up with a very good year. Let's hope that same happens 
with Nover. Nover led the team in "SCORING" (I know, I had to sit down when
I saw this) and was second in rebounding.


Prediction: No points from the point guard slot, no new NCAA Championship
            banners.
