CJ Gunn, the No. 112 player in his class per 247Sports, originally committed to Indiana men’s basketball under former head coach Archie Miller on February 7, 2021, about a month before Miller was let go.
Mike Woodson got to work immediately to secure Gunn’s commitment, which paid off when Gunn reaffirmed his commitment just three days after Woodson was hired.
As a 6’5”, 175 lbs shooting guard, Gunn seems to fit the physical profile for the kind of guard Mike Woodson will recruit going forward. With the exception of 2023 point guard Gabe Cupps, every guard Woodson has signed has been at least 6’3.
