Does anyone have any video of Harris from this camp?

Crean did make it to Akron to watch Harris at the LBJ Academy, he just wasn't in for the morning drills, .etc with Izzo and Painter...

Definitely still in the race.

But it should also be noted Izzo was there as well...

I think Purdue has gained some ground of late as well.

Tim Staudt:

"...And the MSU coaches are busy looking at other players for down the line, including one in Chicago and one in Minnesota but they know the competition is fierce."

Assuming the 'down the line' thing means 2013(Parker)? Who is from MN though?

Not sure about are scholarship situation and it's so hard to guess what it's going to be in the future but could you see us taking two smalls in drake Harris , and tyus jones 2014.. Both seem to like us right now.

I hope that would be the case, and if that's true what in your mind would we take in 2013?

Parker seems like a longshot, could you see us taking a big if we don't get Parker?

Parker will be a PF in college.

He was playing his typical elite level basketball in Orlando. In one game against the CP3 All Stars he had 26 points, eight rebounds, six assists and four blocked shots, 3 of those blocks came against Rodney Purvis.

GH was included in Dave Telep's list of players to watch from the 2012 class, the list is pretty much a who's who of uncommitted players in the 2012 class

Telep: "Indiana and Purdue took a ton of early commitments, but neither landed Harris, Indy's top prospect. Will he see room for himself at those schools, or will he venture out to places like Michigan State, Louisville, Illinois, Notre Dame or Michigan? Harris is smooth, mature and easy for other guys to play with. He can score for any team in America."

Brennan: If Indiana lands Harris, it would only add to what Telep and his colleagues believe to be the best 2012 recruiting class in the country. It would also be a major blow to Purdue, which will see the aforementioned departures of star players Moore, Johnson and Hummel coincide with Tom Crean's emergence as a major force in the state's loaded recruiting scene. It would also make IU an immediate Big Ten title contender in 2012-13, something Hoosiers fans are desperate to experience after years of Mike Davis- and Kelvin Sampson-induced turmoil. But with all those talented players already in the fold, might Harris find the idea of playing at Purdue a more attractive option? Or will he go out of the state entirely?

I think that after we sweep both of them this year we should get the nod.

Kind of crazy that no matter what this dude will be playing in the Big Ten. I'm not sure what kind of talent Purdue has in the pipeline, but it seems Harris could be a deciding factor in who runs the show for the next couple years in the conference between IU and MSU (of course, OSU is always going to be a factor, as well).
