Thanks for the post to the Hutchens article
And while the goal is obviously to get good players (and field a good team) regardless of where the recruits come from, it is always heart-warming to see a lot of in-state recruits on the radar (as is the case in 2011). Looking forward to the football previews.
Jimmy V
Both games look to be must see. I’m interested to see how Indiana stacks up against Pittsburgh, and it’ll be a great chance to see if Butler is half as good as they should be.
My understanding is that Pitt is losing quite a bit. I know DeJuan Blair is gone, but don’t know much about the rest of their roster. I doubt Crean would have signed on if he didn’t think we had a chance. But I have absolutely no idea what to expect from the 09-10 Hoosiers.

also losing Sam Young and Levance Field
So that’s 3 starters in all. I believe the roster is still okay overall and they have a big time recruit coming in but there’s definitely a huge lack of experience now. I wonder what that feels like…
