Indiana Basketball has missed out on top-40 recruit Trey Patterson.

Trey Patterson, a top-40 recruit native to New Jersey, announced his commitment on Thursday, June 18th, naming Villanova as his destination. This decision comes three days after announcing his top three schools. Indiana was alongside Villanova and Florida in that shortlist.

While there was some slight optimism he may become a Hoosier, most signs indicated Patterson would commit to Villanova. Although it isn’t a perfect predictor, the 247 Sports Crystal Ball pinned the New Jersey native as a 100% Villanova lean.
