After a few months since the Hoosiers’ last addition, Indiana finally receives their first commitment of the 2020 class with the announcement today of 4-star guard Trey Galloway from Culver, Ind. Leading up to the commitment, chatter behind the scenes about Indiana’s position on Trey had been growing. Once again, the in-state pipeline to Bloomington continues to be wide open and fruitful for Indiana’s head coach Archie Miller.
Although the staff watched Trey Galloway from the time they took over the program, Hoosiers finally offered a scholarship after an in-home visit with the family on April 29 earlier this year. Galloway had been to campus several times for Hoosier Hysteria and a number of games, but he had his official visit at the end of May. On the visit, he got to see the program at even more intimate level, seeing how the players lived, getting time with coaches, and hanging out with his future teammates.
The 6-foot-4 shooting guard held offers from Notre Dame, Purdue, Michigan State, Iowa, Butler, Nebraska, and Xavier among other schools.
Indiana ultimately won out over other in-state schools Purdue and Notre Dame which are both within an hour-and-a-half’s driving distance.
Indiana is getting a hard-nosed guard with a forceful 6-5, 200 pound frame. Galloway is an attack-first guard that initiates contact that is able to maneuver towards the rim by creating his own space. As the son of a coach, Galloway plays under control and with intent.
He has solid basketball IQ and carries court vision that enables him to feed his teammates on impressive needle-threading assists.
While Trey Galloway is a solid shooter and all around-offensive player, his defensive intensity may have been the factor to ultimately earn him an Indiana scholarship under Archie Miller.
