At 2:59 of that video: Don't think I've ever seen anyone get a bunch of high fives from teammates and a standing ovation from the stands for missing a fast-break dunk and turning the ball over. Wild.

Does that really mean anything though? There are plenty of people collecting unemployment benefits from the state with zero intention of actually working. I'm just saying I doubt he is putting both feet forward for some of these open positions knowing he would likely face a complete roster rebuild with the open transfer portal.

My complete guess is that Archie is pretty set on sitting out a year unless another amazing offer comes up. He just came out of one of the biggest pressure cookers in the country. Jumping into a new role where he would have to deal with the portal and all the madness associated with it probably isn't high on his to-do list right now.

I bet B10 refs are salivating at all the extra potential fouls. Edit: apparently need to click the gif for it to work.

Apologies if I missed it, but is Adam Miller considered an option? Could see XJ, Miller, and Stewart thriving similarly to how Illinois' guards did last year. Is it unlikely just because he's at an in-conference rival or are there other reasons?

Has Earl Timberlake been discussed at all in this thread? Former #35 ranked recruit that went to Miami. He's an athletic 6'6" wing described mostly as a slasher/defender. He's also another DeMatha guy. He wasn't on my radar originally but given Xavier's comments about Victor talking up IU, I wonder if there's a connection with Timberlake as well.

Sign me up.

He's not. He's been posting on Instagram that his Twitter was hacked a few days ago. Since then, whoever is posting is doing the "follow for follow" thing and trying to sell gaming consoles. It's a scam and someone is using his large follower base to run it.

Ratliff?

Yes - do not think he's been in charge of his Twitter account for a few days. Whoever got into it has been attempting to sell video game consoles and is trying to gain followers to do so.

It will likely take some new blood coming in (X or Keion) for anyone nationally to take notice. If you're on the outside looking in, you see a team returning most of the same players from a 12-15 team except for IU's 2nd leading scorer and 2nd best post-player.

I was quoting KenPom for reference.
