IUDan93 Posted April 6, 2021 Report Share Posted April 6, 2021 1 hour ago, IUFLA said: Not going to speak for @IUDan93, but my comment was TIC to some of the no sunshine allowed crowd... Although I will point out that our 12-15 team from last year... 1. Had no frontcourt depth due to Joey's injury late in the preseason. 2. Went without our second leading scorer for a few games and he was obviously compromised when he did play 3. Didn't have the additional outside threat if Parker Stewart I don't know who other B1G teams have coming back, but we'll have a great mix of upper classmen and younger guys who can play. It's not like we were blown out of every game...I can only think of 3 we weren't competitive in (Texas, Michigan, OSU). With the changes on both ends of the floor that Woody will make, I can see us making a significant improvement with our current roster (and assuming Race and Armaan come back)... I'm IUDan93, and I endorse this message. I will add the fact that we played many teams tough this year, just not for 40 minutes. If Coach can simply get them to play for 40, our record will improve dramatically. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just wreaks of bada$$. By this time next year, we will appreciate how huge this is. Geronimo is going to be a player. 12 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He seems like the prototypical NBA wing that you'd think would thrive with Woodson. Obviously we don't know firsthand what Woodson's development skills are like yet, but you'd think a guy like Geronimo would be the perfect fit for Woodson. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dgambill Posted April 6, 2021 Report Share Posted April 6, 2021 4 hours ago, jv1972iu said: Think Rajon Rondo?? Rondo offensively that is. Khristian has a long way to go defensively but no reason he couldn’t dedicate himself. I’m looking for Woodson to help him with his offense obviously. Think Immanual Quickley jump from freshman year to sophomore....even now he isn’t a great 3pt shooter...but he is just super quick with the ball in his hand...has an array of finishes. He is very aggressive offensively when he comes into the game and looks to wreak havoc and score. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is the next step for Woody to take. I’m guessing when the dust settles with Franklin and Race is when we will get more clarity here. I’m hoping we get news soon that we are landing Xavier Johnson. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rico Posted April 6, 2021 Author Report Share Posted April 6, 2021 Oregon's Jalen Terry enters the portal. Per Yahoo: The 6-foot, 165-pound guard was the sole signee of the 2020 Oregon Ducks recruiting class before Franck Kepnang reclassified to join the team midseason. 247Sports composite rating ranked him as the nation's No. 16 point guard and No. 78 player nationally. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fundamentals Posted April 6, 2021 Report Share Posted April 6, 2021 Just a hunch. Baylor finishing season last night...Xavier Johnson to Baylor, and would love to be wrong. What is needed more? A PG like Johnson, Cone, etc? Or, a scorer? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fundamentals Posted April 6, 2021 Report Share Posted April 6, 2021 With Fife coming, not asking for much. Bring Aaron Henry, Brooks enters portal and comes to IU, get Franklin back and let’s get to next season already. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like the way you think but IUScott was told by Henry's dad, NBA or back to MSU. iFthat happened u still could get your guard. Hunter would be in the portal in 2 seconds.

Reacher Posted April 6, 2021 Report Share Posted April 6, 2021 12 hours ago, IUFLA said: I qualified my initial post, as I pointed out (but you apparently missed) " I can see us making a significant improvement with our current roster (and assuming Race and Armaan come back)..." As far as Parker Stewart goes, I never said he'd be "great." He's a good addition that was the OVC's 3rd leading scorer and was 2nd team All OVC. He was shooting at a high volume, and at a mid major, but as I said, he HAS played in a P6 conference and done had success. Everyone says we need shooters, well he's not a bad option. And, no, Joey hasn't made it official, but TJD said this in his presser on coming back to IU... "I also believe Joey being healthy, it will give our team a much better dynamic just because he’s so big and a really good post player. It allows me to be able to go out and handle the ball and do things of that nature.” Now, I don't know about you, but I don't think Trayce would say that without knowing something, do you? I like TJD playing with Brunk against certain teams. I thought TJD was very effective feeding Brunk from the high post. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You want two players that can't shoot outside of 5ft on the floor together and that's a recipe to win? What successful team rolls like that right? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
