    2017 IUBB recruiting

    In a situation where we over sign who do you guys think would leave? Also while on this topic, is Hartman the only guaranteed open Scholly assuming his knee injury is not severe and he does not red shirt

    Looking to next season

    I understand that. But I kinda agree with X on this. You can continually build skill but size/lenghth/athleticism is something you are born with and can only be improved so much. Skills can be taught. If someone trains for 4 years hard on there shot, ball handling, defense,... They could improve a lot. However if they train 4 years trying to get bigger, faster strong they will only get as far as their genetics allow.

    Looking to next season

    As I said in the McSwain thread, I have a class with him and he is HUGE. Didn't stand next to him but when he walked in the class I thought it was him but wasn't sure because I didn't realize he was so big. If he's on a fast break I wouldn't take a charge from him. If he is only 215-220 his body fat% has to be less than 3

    2016 (F) Freddie McSwain Jr. to IU

    I have a class with Freddie and saw him up close and personal. Dude is huge and looks like a freak athlete. Didn't stand next to him put the listed weight of 220 seems low to me

    NBA fans...let's hear YOUR big 3

    I don't remember where I originally saw it but after MCW got hurt he averaged 19 points, 8 boards, 7 assists, 2 blocks, 1.5 steals, and had a 57.2 true shooting percentage. He is like you said 6'11" and is still just 21. The dudes ceiling is literally the GOAT. I really hope he reaches his potential

    NBA fans...let's hear YOUR big 3

    To everyone say pau, he is awful at defense. Very good at pretty much everything offensively but very limited defensively

    McSwain not arriving until Aug 18

    It's not a huge deal IMO. He probably isn't going to be playing all that much this season anyway. Also it's not like he's down there doing nothing. I'm sure that he has a strength and conditioning program that the staff sent him. Sure it's not the same as being there and building chemistry but there could be worse things

    2016-17 Minutes and Rotation

    He can't gaurd anything. There are certain teams where he could be a great asset as a stretch 4 but if any team has size (Wisconsin, Mich St., Purdue) he will be exploited and in more cases his poor defense outweighs his inconsistent offense

    2016-17 Minutes and Rotation

    I don't think Hartman should start. OG is a better 3 and Davis is a better 4 than him

    Just curious why you want shaw? I don't know much about him other than he got fired.

    TOM CREAN FIRED

    Coach K had a Mediocre win % at Army. Pastner does a really good job recruiting at Memphis imagine if he could do it at a blue blood I'm not saying he's our answer I'm just saying I'd rather have him than crean at this point

    TOM CREAN FIRED

    Why not? 71% win percent, young, learned under Calipari. Can't be worse than crean

    TOM CREAN FIRED

    Coaches I'd rather have: Archie Miller, Josh Pastner, Steve Alford, Mike Cronin, Kevin Ollie, Bruce Pearl, Gregg Marshall, Shaka Smart, Tony Bennett, and last but not least Brad Stevens
