Almost immediately after Victor Oladipo visited Indiana, he verballed to the Hooisers' Class of 2010.
Oladipo might be pretty unknown, but he is good. Both scout.com and Rivals have him as a 3-Star, but I guarantee that will rise.
I have seen this kid play, and he is an amazing athlete and I think IU got a steal although he doesn't have much of an outside shot.
He is, however, another SG/wing player, something Indiana has a ton of and it is puzzling how in the world they are ever going to keep them all happy with playing time.
Also, this pretty much locks up all open scholarships until fall of 2012....so even though IU has another 15-16 other kids offered and/or hotly recruiting (several are 5-Stars), they don't have any open scholarships without booting someone.
Last year at this time, IU had oversigned, but that was not a problem as a couple kids were sent packing at the end of the season (both SG's).
