Update on Jordan Tucker, Indiana Basketball’s top recruiting target for 2017

It’s no secret that one of Tom Crean’s strongest attributes as head coach is the ability to recruit and develop talent.

One the nations best high school players, four-star recruit Jordan Tucker, was drawing interest from nearly a dozen schools at the start of his recruitment process. The 6’7, 207 pound forward was rated No. 38 on ESPN’s Top 100 recruits for 2017. He has been scattered between No. 35 and No. 50 on the rest of the nation’s top boards.

Indiana Head Coach Tom Crean was in Dayton, Ohio to watch Tucker on Monday. The Wheeler High School basketball team was invited to the 2017 Flyin’ to the Hoop Invitational, a showcase for some of the best high school basketball programs in the country.
