here's an interview with Geno Ford down in St. Louis about Walt Lemon
...sure doesn't sound like Geno has any problem with Walt's work ethic and leadership....

"Bradley’s spectacular Walt Lemon Junior was playing in his final game in a Braves uniform
...Lemon who would eclipse the 1,700 career point mark in the contest played like a man
..He was at his senior best, stealing balls, setting up teammates and scoring big points.
He is one of four players in Valley history to score at least 1,600 (1,721) points, distribute
over 300 (367) assists and collect 200 (222) steals.
The other three to do so were Hersey Hawkins, Darren Brooks and Larry Bird.

During Friday’s game the Senior showed the Scottrade Center his four year brilliance

Lemon finished with 24 points, four rebounds, five assists and four steals.
He was perfect on 10 shots from the line, including six of them in the final two minutes
and two that looked to provide a winning margin with 4 seconds remaining.

Head Coach Geno Ford said Lemon has made more than a statistical impact on the Bradley program.
“I give him credit for turning the program in one direction … turning the work ethic because
we weren’t a program three years ago where guys get in the gym and worked on their own game.
Now, because of Walt’s relentless approach to becoming a better player individually, it spread.”

Jeff Goodman of ESPN says Jurkin is leaving Indiana & transferring

That leaves Indiana with just 11 scholarship players currently so they are desperate for anyone who can dribble or shoot...
it's hard to even run 5 on 5 in a gym if you don't have at least a dozen players - accounting for injuries, etc...

there's a rumor that ISU transfer Nick Zeisloft has heard from Indiana and visited there.
Here's the discussion on one of the Hoosier boards

Rob Judson was on staff there at ISU when Zeisloft got there and now Judson is at IU
