  1. That’s obviously why he’s not on the list. He’ll be on it tomorrow.

    Losing Armaan in general would be tough. Losing him to Illinois would be brutal.

    West as in Illinois?

    I’ve only seen rumors, nothing official.

    My response was to someone who was assuming TJD was staying. Brunk and Duncomb as our only bigs would be rough.

    If we play 4 out 1 in, TJD, Brunk and Duncomb would be plenty of depth at the 5 in my opinion.

    I really don’t get why Armaan would leave. But I only want guys here who want to be here.

    Caleb Love has no reason to transfer. He’s either going to the draft or he’s staying at UNC.
  9. It’d be incredible if everyone stayed, but if I had to bet I would guess Geronimo and Race end up leaving, with Lander and Franklin returning. Then I think we’d still have like 3 openings for transfers.

    Worst Losses of the Archie Era

    Losing to OSU in the big ten tournament year 2 in what was essentially a play-in game for the NCAA tournament. More of a hindsight idea but losing that game was brutal.

    (2022) - SG C. J. Gunn to DePaul

    CJ Gunn remaining committed could be a good sign about Armaan as well. Might also just be wishful thinking.

    I bet he’ll go to Syracuse. His defense is terrible and a 2-3 zone can hide him a bit. Plus they need shooters.

    Let’s go get Cade Cunningham instead

    Mike Woodson and His Coaching Staff

    If I remember correctly, he did land some 4 stats when he was at UConn. I’m not totally in tune with his recruiting resume though.

    It looks like IU is finally looking to invest in these extra support positions. Seeing Matta get a created position and hypothetically adding Larry Brown to a support position give me a sense that the IU administration is really willing to give Woodson everything he needs to succeed.

    I’m really happy Kenya Hunter is staying. I think he’s a fantastic fit here, and we can utilize him for out of state recruiting.
  17. I’m 27 and I feel the exact same way. I honestly started getting a little choked up when I watched his press conference. It’s really exciting seeing a head coach who makes it obvious how much IU means to them.
  18. Once they enter the portal their scholarship and roster spot isn’t guaranteed anymore.
  19. I wonder if Knight will be coming to IU games next year.

    Lewis isn’t the head coach at UCLA.

    Player decisions

    I really hope Geronimo stays, but I’m worried that he really wants to transfer somewhere closer to home. He’s been my favorite freshman to watch and was looking forward to watching him turn into a stud at IU.
  22. Just without the shooters, and we had 2 post players on the court together.
  23. Man I hope so. Nothing like watching assembly lose their mind on a big 3. Maybe a big dunk haha
  24. Call me a sucker, but I’m really buying what Coach Woodson is selling. My only real concern for him is that he’s 63. I think his NBA experience is only a positive, and I love having a coach who obviously understands how important this position is, and it’s so easy to see that it’s his absolute dream job. I’m looking forward to seeing a modern team.

    Probably not honestly
