2017 NBA Draft: Indiana takes a big hit as another Hoosier is leaving early
Two down, two to go: new IU coach Archie Miller awaits the decisions of two more Hoosiers
Indiana will have to forward without Thomas Bryant. The Hoosiers' outgoing sophomore will keep his name in the candidate pool for the 2017 NBA Draft, sign an agent, and end his college career per multiple reports over the weekend.

Bryant, a 6-foot-10 power froward, averaged 12.2 points and 6.2 rebounds in his two seasons under Tom Crean. He was forecast as a potential lottery pick entering this season, but at this point he's projected as an early second-round pick at best. Bryant, who is still just 19 years old, had the opportunity to return to IU and try to thrive under new coach Archie Miller.

Duke lands commitment from player who was about to sign with Eastern Kentucky
Jordan Goldwire only had offers from some small schools, but a visit to Duke on Monday changed things

There are recurrent surprises in basketball recruiting, and then there are borderline-unprecedented and shocking events. What happened with Duke on Monday night qualifies with the latter.

A player almost nobody had heard of, three-star recruit Jordan Goldwire, took an official visit to Duke on Monday. By 8:36 p.m., he had committed to play for the Blue Devils next season.

Goldwire, who was previously weighing offers from Eastern Kentucky, Coastal Carolina and Hofstra, commits to Duke at a time when Mike Krzyzewski is recruiting elite five-star prospects and future one-and-dones such as Trevon Duval, Kevin Knoxand Mohamed Bamba.
