Transfer Portal w IU Interest
RaceToTheTop replied to Class of '66 Old Fart's topic in Indiana Men's Basketball
Have to say realistically it's Creighton, Ohio State, and LSU. Howard just thrown in there for sentimental's sake. -

In terms of splash, On3 has IU bringing in the 15th, 31st, 34th, and 96th rated transfers. 15th is Tucker Devries, the others are from mid/low majors. But mid/low majors don't necessarily equate to lack of splash, just they are players you weren't familiar with until the transfer portal. Would you call the following group splashy? Isaac McNeely (Virginia) Rodney Rice (Maryland) Morez Johnson (Illinois) Rakease Passmore (Kansas) Because that group of four are the P5 players directly below the 15th, 31st, 34th, and 96th rated transfers. -
He would not have a year remaining. Put him in the group of players entering the portal hoping a lawsuit gives them another year.

No eligibility left. Several others have done this as well but I haven't seen any sign that doesn't have eligibility left. Probably hoping for a lawsuit to go through that would grant them another year, but as of now he's used his eligibility up. -

I believe this is an upper half Big Ten team as is. Need to remember that the top of the Big Ten is pretty good next year -- Purdue, Michigan, Michigan State, Illinois, Oregon are all solid. Could throw in UCLA as well. IU currently at fifth in transfer portal and I would guess we'll be in that neighborhood when all is said and done. That said, IU did need to be in that neighborhood since we didn't retain any players. Offensively, the haul looks very good. Perimeter shooting looks excellent. Conerway helps defensively and I believe that bringing in a defensive center will help as well. -
No, he’s Villanova bound

Denzel Aberdeen, 6'5" Florida guard. Scored 7 points in 18 minutes in the title game. 7.7 points, 1.7 rebounds in 19.7 minutes/game. 42/35/71.

Just that we are likely heavy at wing right now -- lot of guys that can play the three, particularly if Goode gets his waiver. -

This is what Torvik projects for minutes from our current seven players (please note that it's just a tool meant for fun and the numbers can be off on some players....ie...when Peyton Sparks came to IU, Torvik had him projected at 20+): DeVries 32.4 Bailey 30.4 Wilkerson 27.6 Enright 26.4 Conerway 25.6 Sisley 14.8 Miles 12 -

It’s nice to see a team put together with actual roster formation in mind. -
Tayton Conerway to Indiana!!!!
RaceToTheTop replied to Class of '66 Old Fart's topic in Indiana Men's Basketball
Correct. Note that one of the JUCO seasons he only played a handful of games due to injury so I assume he would get a redshirt season for it, so technically this is his fifth year. -

Assuming that Conerway signs, the 1-2-3 spots seem to be falling into place. Current roster: Sisley, F freshman Bailey, F/C 6'10" Davidson 18.8/6.1/3.8 DeVrie, F 6'7" West Virginia 14.9/4.9/2.8 Wilkerson, G/F 6'5" Sam Houston 20.5/4.0/2.1 Miles, G/F 6'6" North Florida 15.4/6.8/1.9 Conerway, G 6'3" Troy 14.2/4.6/4.8 Enright, G 6'2" DePaul 7.5/3.3/6.2 -
Has scored 52 points in two seasons, first at Memphis and second at New Mexico State. These rankings are seriously flawed.

PJay Smith, Furman, 6' guard. 17.6 pts, 4.1 reb, 3.9 ast, shot 43/41/86.

Nothing official released from him yet, correct? Trilly crystal ball + 247 photo in gallery. Do we know who uploaded the pic?
