True. But is extremely, incredibly rare. As in "0- fer Calipari."

I want him to be a lotto pick with a degree from IU. We have had two of those in the past five years. How many schools can say they produce lotto picks and those picks leave with a verifiable education?

Two years + three summers at IU gets a player really close to a degree; that's one of the reasons I think he'll go. He doesn't need huge offensive numbers to be a first rounder.

Probably better in a separate thread, but if he has the good season we all expect, it's hard to believe OG will stay.

Toughness is a CTC thing. Good.

We'd be a three guard lineup team with that group, likely along with Davis and Morgan as starters. That might work well, but would very much upset the natives. Add Wilkes at a wing into the starting lineup? That'd be nice. As for the video? Quick, very long, uses both hands very, very well. Alligator arms and early release on the jumper. Overall? Huge potential, especially for a kid that is supposed to be smart and humble.

Geez. Both Deng and Bamba are high on Duke...and us. Duke will get one, not both, right?

Too much talk that Scruggs and Xavier is a foregone conclusion. Too much talk because it: Just. Isn't. True.

Bump (Pbbbbbtt) .

Oh yeah? Sez you!

I need to have the last word in this thread, and I shall continue to reply until I have it! ;)

He was called a "doody head."

Me!!!

My guess is that they told him that "you can start as a freshman". He probably repeated that paraphrasing it in 18-year-old speak as "I will start as a freshman".

^^This^^ It seems like every year we have a 'big opportunity game' where we can make a legit claim as a top 25 team if we win. Last year, it was Ohio State at home. It also seems as if during those games, we play well, and fade in the 4th quarter. This year, Michigan State at home will be that game.

I'm sure that there are others that also fit the mold, but Wilkes, Waters, J. Smith, Gak, Bamba, J. Tucker all have two very, very important things in common: Top 75 players Completely squared away young men Along with Durham, I'd gladly welcome any of 'em.

Hey... only two of the 247 composite 2017 top ten are currently committed (Porter to his dad's school U Washington, and Mitchell Robinson to Western Kentucky). Only ten of the top 50 are committed (to UWash, Illinois, Auburn (2), WKU, UCLA (2), UNC, Arkansas, UF). Twenty from 50-100 are committed; seems like the 5 star players can afford to take their time, eh?

I want a class of all in-state five stars that pop early and stay four years! Tralalalalala!!!

I hear ya, but a healthy JBJr is starting. Hartman will start also.

Allow me to summarize: OG > Swanigan

I think he'll be okay: Mike Schmitz @Mike_Schmitz He didn't scrimmage but OG Anunoby's physical profile is elite. Should be able to play some 4 in NBA. Stroke much smoother than I thought. 1h

Purdoo will be big again, with a front line of Haas, Swanigan, and Edwards. I would expect OG to draw Swanigan with that lineup.

Nigel Hayes, Caleb Swanigan, Peter Jok, Miles Bridges, etc, etc, get ready; your offensive game is in store for a healthy heaping of OG defense.

FIU versus IUFB tickets on sale! Me and the Hoosiers on September 1st. Now if only IUBB would come to South Florida

Interested in all of them. Especially rooting for Emmitt and PJ.
