Take 5ive Classic to Indy

"As a side note, the "It Takes 5ive" Classic - promoted as the top adidas-sponsored tournament - will move to Indianapolis this July after a three-year run in Cincinnati (played mostly on the University of Cincinnati)."

Big news. Not good.

That does hurt, How much of an affect do you think it had for recruiting purposes that this event was held in Cincinnati? I would imagine it helped big significantly.

It hurts, but not a much as people believe IMO. It was nice to get hundreds of recruits on campus to see what we have to offer, but it being a "showcase" tourney, I'm sure most recruits were more focused on the coach's watching them and not the facilities they were playing in. (most played in the Rec Center) However, I still wish we had it because I enjoyed going to it.

Sure doesn't help.
