Really? Duncomb nobody has a clue on and Durr is just a backup type center. This is where you want to go? That is a crap ton of optimism there. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Durr is our starter at center that team wouldn't win 10 games. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ba43056 Posted February 7, 2022 Report Share Posted February 7, 2022 I think Race will come back to be the man inside. Geronimo would make a perfect sidekick for Race. A bit undersized but it looks like we'll be able to add a couple of more players from the portal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Duncomb will start scoring will be on perimeter.We will be fine with athletes at other positions.Durr played Purdue game and we won.Trayce was no show he also had us ahead of Illinois at the half Trayce played most of 2nd half and we got blown out at home.

I'm glad I didnt use you can put whipped cream on a pile of s@$# but its still a pile of S@%#.

I think Durr could be a serviceable starter but obviously wouldn't be the focal point of our offense or at least not near as much as TJD and Race are this year. It's curious that Woodson thinks we will have that many open spots but no point in trying to guess which players are leaving.

If Durr is the starter we dont win but 10 games. People are complaining now about our lack of talent. Who do we rely on, a couple of freshman? Lander? Bates is the 2nd coming of Bracey Wright, a black hole the ball disappears in until he throws up a shot. This team is in real trouble next season if we lose 5 or 6 upper classmen. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe Kopp, Stewart and Rob are in their last year of college basketball. I don't them personally so I don't know if they will pursue overseas options or not. So with that being said we have the room for Banks, Gunn and Schifino. TJD will enter the draft and perhaps with CMW as an advocate get drafted somewhere in the 50's, but honestly he has nothing new to his offensive game that leads me to believe that he's any more prepared now than he last year. None-the-less he will move on. Lander would be well served to consider a fresh start elsewhere, I personally think he will move on. Duncomb wouldn't come as a surprise if he did as well but I don't think its likely. Race I believe comes back with Durr and Geronimo. So the safe bet is 5 being gone. I do disagree with you about one thing. I think Bates will get it together. I think we'll see something tonight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t mean that to be negative about him, I just think on a contending Big Ten team that he is a spot backup type of player. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not one reporter asked CMW about Duncomb. Woody said he played everyone he could and would have played the walk ons if there were foul trouble, Not a mention of Duncomb that I can remember. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Indykev Posted February 9, 2022 Report Share Posted February 9, 2022 We better hope there are some very good bigs in the portal that want to come. Raw freshmen bigs dont play. Transfer bigs a lot better than Joey Brunk and Durr. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's played in games so a regular redshirt can't happen but he's also played in games after the cutoff point in the season (1st 1/2) where he would be eligible for a medical redshirt if he's injured. So it's either #2 or possibly a #3 you didn't mention: he could be injured. Probably #2. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
