I think this team could be really similar to the 08 team (Sampsons second year); we will have a stud freshman guard, a stud senior big, great coaching and some really nice supporting players.

Remains to be seen of course, but would add we've also got a very good tactical coach (the great coaching) who gets the most out of his players, and now he's got a year with returning players who know his system.

Totally agree. We also have a lot of length/athleticism which should enable us to take another step forward on defense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure if Green/Phinesee are as good as Bassett and Crawford but Smith, Race, Davis, and Fitzner would make mince meat out of Stemler, Mike White, and Dre.

milehiiu Posted May 20, 2018 Report Share Posted May 20, 2018 SIAP Looks different than the original link. Same results. But with a little more as to why IU should be ranked where they are.

IU has the Top rated recruiting class coming into the Big Ten for 2018-2019 !!! And , MSU lost a ton of talent from last season ! As far as I’m concerned, let’s stay out of all these preseason rankings and keep this team hungry. Nobody outside of Juwan and Romeo has proved themselves to be a game changer. I want these guys to step up, have a chip on their shoulder and prove their worth. Hashtag Stay hungry. (Did I do that right?) That said, how many times do these columnists need to be burned by Kentucky until they stop ranking them so highly? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A few weeks ago there was an article talking about the projected preseason top 10, and for UK it said if their two projected second-round picks come back it could be like 2014-15 again (their "almost perfect" season). I think anyone with an IQ above room temperature can get published by ESPN these days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 40-0 talk started in 2013, when they brought in a freshman class that featured 6 of the top 20 recruits nationally. It ended after their second game. That season looked like it was going off the rails until their improbable run to the championship game. Then they brought back almost everyone and a year later we were the biggest Wisconsin fans on the planet for one night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
