Latest perspective from IU viewpoint (Justin Albers):
Is it a done deal? No. As I reported earlier this week, the real reason Wilkes is attracted to UCLA is the opportunity to be in Los Angeles, train against pros in the offseason, and jump to the NBA after one year, which I’m told he believes is a possibility.
But my belief remains that Wilkes will be a Hoosier because Crean has done the best job recruiting him, has recruited him longer than anybody else, and has the best track record of developing players like Wilkes.
