Indiana received its first addition from the transfer portal on Wednesday morning as Ball State transfer Payton Sparks announced his commitment to Indiana. Jerod and Coach Tonsoni break down Sparks’ game, what this means for Indiana’s overall roster, and what to expect from Sparks in the Big Ten. They also explain how their feelings about Sparks as a Hoosier have evolved since he was first mentioned as a possibility.
Also joining us is Evan Wilson, who plays at Akron, and has seen Sparks up close the last two seasons. He has some excellent insight into what Sparks brings to the table from a skills standpoint and, perhaps more importantly, from a mentality and culture standpoint.
