Either you are a Hoosier or you aren't. There is no in between.

Totally agree!  We are not now, or ever really, in a place where we can have a half hearted Hoosier. Im 100% ok with taking some time to figure out where your heart is at, but if ur not all in you should get out.  

That being said, Arman, please be all in on IU!!!

Hey, can you nice weather people just knock it off?  Here's a typical July day in my neighborhood.

You in Miami????  Oh wait, that's snow, not......"snow". 🤣

Not exactly the same thing since they were going pro and not transferring, but it makes me not read too much into it. 

I would think that would be the main kicker.  I know leaving is leaving, but actively looking to join a direct competitor vs weighing your options on iu or nba is a big difference. I REALLY would love to see Arman back at iu next year!  But i would think a "💩  or get off the pot" discussion would be had sooner than later.

By week’s end:

Franklin leaves

X Johnson arrives

Race leaves

Brooks arrives??

Correct me if im wrong, but didnt somebody on here say Franklin was taking part in team activities?  If he was leaving, or even talking/meeting with other teams, it wouldnt make sense for him to still be working out with our team would it?

You guys down for a bulk order? Maybe get them customized, with candy stripes and our HSN names?!

As Coach would (probably) say, “Gotta take proper care of your wood-son!”

Could you imagine the reaction if they opened up the order and saw it was supposed to be engeaved with "3ballin" on it!? 🤣🤣🤣

I'd say Jerome's biggest asset is his ability to shoot the 3. Add Parker to the lineup along with Johnson, who shoots better than Lander or Rob, then the 3 point shooting is improved. I'd trade Brooks' defensive ability to switch and guard multiple positions. Just my own opinion. 

Totally makes sense. My only fear would be that we end up with Smith, who admitidly had a hell of a year, 2.0 and teams will be daring him to shoot while clogging the lane and helping off to actual shooters.  

It's guna be interesting at the very least to see how all this plays out!

I cant say for certain because I did not watch much, I will say that I think he is an immediate upgrade defensively. Just my opinion. 

Fair enough. 👍

I always felt Race was the top candidate to leave just based on TJD returning and the style Woodson wants to play. 

To put a combo of TJD, Armaan, Stewart, potentially Brooks too would be a pretty good lineup. Add Johnson or Lander as PG and look out.

So are we sure Brooks would be an upgrade over Hunter?  I have watched 0 seconds of Brooks play so i have no clue. I do know that Hunter has the ability to take his defender in the post as well as be one of our better shooters outside (not a real high bar, i know).  Does Brooks have that same or similar skill set?

Do you know the "order of offer"? I mean, is it we offer Turner & Fife and if one turns us down we move to Lewis or is it Lewis & Fife and turn to turner... we call simultaneously and the first 2 to accept...

It almost sounds like this should move to the recruiting page. 🤣

Big surprise coming!  The players play and the coaches coach.  Woody's players will give it all on the floor.  Players know when a coach believes in them and coaches know when the fans believe in them.  Stop bitchin and let's move this train forward.

Welcome to the board!!!   I do fear that with a name like yours tho you will have a rough time here. We rarely us logic at all, let alone first!!!  🤣🤣🤣

Armaan, Stewart, and Hunter could create a deadly trio on the perimeter shooting. 

Would be great if he had a point guard with elite speed and floor vision to feed those guys the ball, and an elite guy to score inside. We would be really hard to guard with the right scheme. 

You mean kinda like Lander and TJD?

Not to be rude at all... but GS is the golden child of how to build a basketball team right now. Everyone wants to be them. 

I didnt say it was a revolutionary idea. 🤷‍♂️😂

With what he has said about wanting players to guard multiple positions and everyone being able to shoot from outside, im hoping to see something along the lines of Golden State from a few years ago.  Not exactly like it.  I understand GS had 3 of the best shooters in nba history on the team so i know it would have to be somewhat modified, but my point still stands.

Curious why you think he’ll be a grand slam? 

Only thing I can think of is maybe he gets a discout at Denny's??? 🤔🤷‍♂️

Dolson is either a genius or an idiot, we're about to find out. 

Well in most cases that's a razor thin line. And in very rare cases you get Sheldon Cooper.

I was looking at the roster and if we lose those 3 in the portal but keep everyone else then it is a good roster to start with.

PG- Lander

2G- ? Hopefully get a great 6'5 shooting guard LEAL

SF- Hunter

PF- TJD GERONIMO

C- ? hopefully a 6'10 long and athletic center who can step out and shot outside TJD

Bench

RP

Leal

Galloway

Geronimo

Brunk

Duncomb

If everyone on that list returns thats how id go.  We wont be tall, but we should run run run run run and just turn the game into a track meet.  Crean style but hopefully without the turnovers.

Yeah, I don't want him if he robbed a bank.

Maybe he put a bunch of money in Robinhood before it shut down??

Someone tell me what this board would be like if we were a ranked team and lost to Wisconsin by 40...

Remember those bombs we dropped on Japan in the 40's......ya, a lot worse than that.

Or, since we are a fotball school now nobody would care. 🤣

I want smith to be a Hoosier. We play them during the season. Dudes a stud, winner, and has that I’ll kick your ass attitude that’s not arrogant. Whomever mentioned Coverdale earlier...bingo. Minus the Budweiser 😂

I still think the reason we lost to Maryland is because it was the 1st game in at least 6 years he played sober. 🤣🍻

On the contrary haha. 

Ya, he said he was married.  Once that happens all hope is lost, regardless of where she went to school. 🤣

Not sure if or how many of you have seen "Hook" but I would say we are more likely to have (left side) "Ge-Ron-I" (right side) "Moooooooeee".  The "e's" are so @Stlboiler23 knows its not a roll call for PU coeds.  🐄🐄 🤣🤣

It’s a slim chance he goes first round. There’s so much that goes into the MLB draft that’s differed than other drafts and it’s to early to project. That’s said I would expect him to go in the top 5 rounds at least.

I would say going in the top 5 rounds of a 629 round draft is still pretty darn impressive!!!

Dropped 53 spots to #132 in 247’s composite rankings yesterday. Still #89 in 247’s Rankings and #77 on Rivals.

ESPN’s rankings are what caused the drop, have him listed as a three star.

Good.  He can come here, be a part of something special and maybe turn into something special and tell all those "experts" to suck on his 3 stars.  😁😁
