tdhoosier Posted April 26 Report Share Posted April 26 Now that Goode is on board, I’d say we have a pretty good idea of our roster. Our floor should be high. Our ceiling should be high. I will be disappointed if we are even flirting with the tournament next year; we should be solidly in. With the amount of talent we have on paper, I think we should be a top 25 team all year. Those expectations should not be considered out of line unless we have something like 3 major injuries. Agree? 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DWB Posted April 26 Report Share Posted April 26 After last year's fiasco, when I see it on the floor, THEN I'll believe it. If Woodson doesn't put it together this year, he will be seen as another Lou Henson. Doing so little with so much. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although I got a laugh thinking of Coach Mike Woodson with a Lou-do. 🤔 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Euroclydon Posted April 27 Report Share Posted April 27 No idea what next season looks like yet, but they are trending in the right direction. CMW was feeling the heat as the season ended. It may appear the success in the portal has cooled things off for him. In reality, you spend this much money and add this many top portal players, it may actually turn up the heat. Side Note: I'm calling out everyone involved in getting these guys in shape and healthy. If they start the season with a bunch of key injuries, something needs to change. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BADGERVOL Posted April 28 Report Share Posted April 28 (edited) I’ll bet Goode never lifted weights at IL and that’s he shoots well, so he’ll come here and lift weights and lose his touch… sorry couldn’t resist… Edited April 28 by BADGERVOL 1 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We'll see what happens next year, but I am truly excited. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drroogh Posted April 29 Report Share Posted April 29 Way too early BIG outlook! Some good info about the comings and going’s around the conference! Spoiler they have IU #1 and Purdue #2. While IU has a lot to prove next year, I’m not sure I buy Purdue having one of the best backcourts in the country? Time will tell for both teams! 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IUFLA Posted April 29 Report Share Posted April 29 I had to laugh when I saw this under Washington... "Big man Wilheim Breidenbach (5.3 ppg and 3.4 rpg) is the lone rotation piece back." If that's the case, the Huskies have a big problem 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I think that’s a stretch to say one of the best in the country. If it was just point guard sure but I think Loyer needs to take a big step for us to be in the conversation of best backcourt in the country. I do think Smith is one of the best PG’s in the country though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like see WI #12- behind MN, lol. MSU in the bottom half, behind NE, is also nice to see. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tdhoosier Posted April 29 Report Share Posted April 29 Michigan may be a dark horse. Dusty is pulling in some good transfers and it will be hard to root against him. I’ll definitely be interested to see some their games next season. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maedhros Posted April 29 Report Share Posted April 29 FWIW, here are the current projections at BartTorvik: 6 - UCLA 9 - Purdue 15 - Michigan St 16 - Indiana 20 - Nebraska 21 - Michigan 25 - Rutgers 27 - Northwestern 29 - USC 32 - Wisconsin 34 - Ohio St 39 - Maryland 41 - Oregon 54 - Iowa 65 - Illinois 66 - Minnesota 78 - Washington 85 - Penn St And filling all that out just confirms the Big Ten has entirely too many teams. Teams will continue filling out their rosters over the weeks to come, so with a mostly set roster it's possible we could get jumped. Michigan adding Goldin today gave them a big boost. Also, I suppose the portal is still open for another day or so, and you might still see guys leave; Illinois lost another just today.

They were terrible last year, surprised to see them so high. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
