It has never even been a sure thing Juwan would play in the NBA. The mindset is different. How do you know the mindset is different? He’s watched the two other members of his recruiting class leave early to go pro, along with Yogi, Troy, and Blackmon. You don’t think he views himself as being on the same level as those guys? For what it’s worth, a guy I know who’s connected to the program told me that Juwan is set to graduate after this year, and people in the program right now have the sense that there’s a decent chance he’ll leave whether or not he’s going to be drafted. I haven’t mentioned it because I’m not really a big “unfounded rumors” guy, but take it for what it’s worth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd be shocked if he isn't back. The only case he'd go would be he feels there's a good chance he'd go in the first round. This year's draft is pretty stacked.

You’re right, Yogi and RoJo staying does mean nothing as it relates to Juwan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KDB Posted January 25, 2018 Report Share Posted January 25, 2018 If Romeo were to come and assuming Morgan stays... Phinisee, Romeo, Hunter, Juwan, and Deron next year as a potential starting 5 sounds pretty sweet to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wouldn’t it be a kick in the junk if he finished up at KU and Romeo went with? For the record, I think he will either go pro or stay at IU. No reason to transfer at all.

If he continues to have the year he is having, i just don't see him increasing his stock that much more. Yeah he could show his 3 point shot but honestly he would be taking more change to get hurt or have a worst year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A lineup of Phinisee, Hunter, Smith, Moore/Thompson, and Davis, with Green, Durham, Anderson, Forrester, and a couple grad transfers off the bench, is not going anywhere next season. i totally agree with all the points of us not being very very good without Juwan and Romeo, but... as much as landing a 5 * like Romeo would make all the difference in the world and even make us potential national contenders... i'm saying Phinessee, Durham, Smith, Morgan, and Davis with McRoberts, Green, Hunter, and Anderson would be very very good. not national contenders good, but very very solid. another year with CAM's system will go a long way. another year of Morgan would be huge. i still have to think we haven't seen the best of Davis.

We’d definitely be very solid with Morgan but no Romeo next year. Another year of improvement from Morgan could make him a CPOY candidate. We would be a tough out in the tournament. But without Morgan we’re an NIT team at best again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
