Depending on the severity of the arrest No idea on the severity of the charges or if they will stick. I would still guess the probability of X being on the roster next year is MUCH higher than that of Pack. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Definitely want both to land somewhere in the area without it being the 765 area code. Haha. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Played 2 games against P6 competition last year...had 18 vs Purdue and 17 vs NC State He can really play. In their First Four game, he played 39 minutes, had 37 points & 11 boards on 11-15 from the field and 14-16 from the FT line. Outplayed Kiss, Bryant's hyped player. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gonna say that your last sentence kind of explains it. Look at the two rosters. Clearly Matta needs these guys as an upgrade to what they have. That is because their roster is bad. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parakeet Jones Posted April 3, 2022 Report Share Posted April 3, 2022 Anyone else kind of hoping Rob waits to make any decisions until the X saga plays out? I know he isn’t perfect, but if we end up needing another guard… For the record, the above statement should not be interpreted as me saying X has to go.

Big Ten is a higher level than the Big East??? You might want to rethink that. In theory people like to say that but it’s not backed up much in reality.

Yeah, I remember him now...he was really good... The Buckeyes lost Liddell and might lose Branham. That's basically their top 2 guys...they're gonna need some offense...

I think Brahnam will stay in the draft so they will lose those two plus Wheeler, Young and Brunk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure Lander will play the defense Butler is known for…would expect him in a conference that gets up and down the court like conference USA or OVC/Sun Belt.

Bowhunter Posted April 3, 2022 Report Share Posted April 3, 2022 Perfect spot for both of them and a pretty dang good back court in the big east. I bet Lander has a good year! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IU Scott Posted April 3, 2022 Report Share Posted April 3, 2022 (edited) I haven't seen who is in the portal from Butler but they did have a few good young guards so playing time in their back court could be limited.

I imagine he likes the athleticism he can bring for sure. I can see why he likes Rob. Defense and team first guy…easy to bring in and fit into any program. Lander is more a project than anything…low floor/high ceiling. Unless you plan to just roll the ball out and let him play like in some of the conferences I mentioned he will need a lot of coaching to fit into a guard dominant Big East.
