I just don't think they are likely to come here if they aren't going to be playing starter-type minutes. And I don't think the plan is to play two bigs at the same time regularly, so I don't see it as a fit from the players' perspective, not the program's. 25 minutes for Reneau. 25 minutes for another quality big, like those mentioned. That's 50 minutes used out of 80 available for two spots. Only requires them to be on floor together for 10 minutes a game. I would not define that as 'regular'. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also think Woodson would rather not play two non-shooting bigs at the same time (though it's pure speculation that I think that), but I also think he will adjust to what he has. If we can't find a stretch 4 who is good enough to play, we will play two bigs at the same time. I'd rather have 2 quality bigs who play at a high level than replace one of them with a better fit that just isn't as good at basketball.

Galloway, Leal, Gunn, and Banks are the 4 I would bet are coming back and feel comfortable. Reneau worries me a little because I think JHS is likely to go pro and homesickness could come into play without his buddy here. The rest I think greater than 50% chance they move on.

A lot of bench players on a Mid-Major may actually be looking to downgrade to a Low Major just to get more playing time. Or, if they are destined to sit the bench, they might be looking for an opportunity closer to home. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Somewhere I saw a stat that indicated less than half the players entering the portal end up finding a new home. A significant number end up off scholarship.

Oh. I'm not disagreeing with that. I just think IU fans look at the fact that TKR didnt play the minutes his ranking would normally warrant.

Yes, Malik was ranked higher. Doesn't change the fact that TKR has had an additional year of weight training, coaching and competing at a higher level. I really don't care one way or the other about him. I don't hold a bias against him for his decision to go to Purdue. He can have a great career against everyone he plays against, save one school.

Look, as I responded to @DC2345, both have more to offer than what the were able to do behind an All-American I think the point is that TKR had a full redshirt year in a college program while Reneau was a true freshman. All else being equal, he should’ve been more advanced than Reneau. Outside of fewer turnovers, TKR really wasn’t more advanced in any other area. I think he could still be a fine player, just don’t think he’d fit at IU with Malik being a similar player with more potential. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They both were ever so slightly better than that based on their rating. Were they TJD level? Absolutely not. But, they aren't necessarily hurting their team on that end of the floor either.
