Balla, it's safe to come out now. Story to Indiana

[SirSaxa]

According to SCOUT.com, Story committed to Tom Crean.

Amazing. He was recruiting Georgetown--not vice versa and happy for him/Hoyas. Glad he found a spot and glad he's not a Hoya.

Haha, great title. Balla has been in hiding for quite some time now.

Glad we didn't burn a scholly on him. Not sure Story is the answer for Indiana. That said, I can just see Crean swaying recruits away from G'town. He probably talks about the downside of our system... how it can limit a kids upside... how its difficult to get in the rotation... and in the end, he promises a starting role. You have to think that Story will be inserted to the rotation immdiately and Rivers will be starting the minute he becomes eligible. What Crean fails to mention is that he's likely to jump ship and abandon his upper classmen as soon as he gets a better offer. Just ask James and McNeal.

Eh, I don't think there will be a better offer for Crean. Not only because the Indiana offer is a pretty damn good one, but because Crean is limited in a few facets of the college game. We'll see. I don't know about the whole him "swaying recruits from Georgetown" thing, though. Quite frankly it can't be too hard to recruit kids to an Indiana where there's an opportunity to jump in the lineup right away in the first place. I doubt he has to badmouth Georgetown all that much.

Story was searching for a school and his story was changing in a matter of minutes/whomever would do an update with him. (no pun intended) He has an "interesting" background--and Crean needed players. He was never offered by Georgetown, so if Crean wants to badmouth Georgetown--which I don't think he'd do--he can keep doing it with guys like Story.
