dgambill Posted September 16, 2019 Report Share Posted September 16, 2019 Archie building an all 6’5 team. Either Archie thinks we might lose a wing or two or he will just roll out 5 guards and play small ball. Given the glut of wings we have it’s interesting we are still hunting more wings when we have glaring holes at center and pg. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Played much taller than program height. Fun team....one I grew up watching/despising very much. I still think it's a style that could work well in today's game as long as the shooting was there.

I did not care for UI but did enjoy that team and saw them live in the 89 tournament at the RCA Dome. I thought Liberty was listed at 6'7 or 6'8 but he was pretty thin.

Whole program was which ultimately led to Henson narrowly avoiding death penalty. Of course my first ever game in Assembly Hall was Nick Anderson's shot at the buzzer. Made me despise that team even more. Never cheered so hard for Michigan in my life in the Final 4. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GrangerHoosier Posted August 9, 2020 Report Share Posted August 9, 2020 IU has reached out. Top-40 player so it makes sense, however seems interesting since we're in a good spot with other 2021 kids. Possibly a backup plan if Aminu Mohammed goes elsewhere? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are facing sanctions for problems they committed while on probation. Not sure why anyone would be heading there. Would love to get a look at this kid again and to me he isn't a backup at all. TK, Miller or him....whoever pops...pops. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
