IUFAN1976

I was trying to figure out where this belongs, I guess here is as good as any. This board needs a general off-season thread! Many commentators have IU as the early favorite to win the B10!!! https://www.thedailyhoosier.com/several-national-commentators-believe-iu-basketball-is-now-the-preseason-big-ten-favorite/

I know a lot of people didn’t like what he did but that was classy of him!

I could be wrong but he may not have gotten selected because he has COVID

He’s coming back. Him not participating is a sign that he is. He may do a couple individual team workouts but it probably won’t be enough for him to get drafted where he thinks he wants to be drafted

Don’t we have enough of those? Kopp, Schifino, Bates, Gunn, Galloway, Leal at least could all be wings, IMO! I forgot about JG. We don’t need him, IMO

Isn’t Dennis a guard? He’s not a front court player, correct?

That’s not a good exchange! It is probably because of his NIL potential. I wish we would get a big that contributed at his previous school in exchange, if TJD doesn’t return i wish the very best for TJD, but I hope that is his return to the Hoosiers

That’s what we are all hoping

Kopp may start but his minutes will greatly decrease, unless he shoots the 3 better

Welcome back Hulls! He’s a winner and always played hard. Maybe he can help with our 3 point shooting. He was always good at moving without the ball and be able to come off screens and had a quick release. Good for him!

Evans plans to visit IU in June! https://www.thedailyhoosier.com/class-of-2023-5-star-forward-k-j-evans-will-visit-indiana-in-june/

I do agree, Knight was a giant butt! I don’t support his antics but when he started to become a horses butt, they should have reprimanded him immediately, instead they turned the other way and kept allowing him to do it and he got much worse. Knight was a great coach but was an even bigger butt! Also, he does bare some of this responsibility too for the last 20+ years for the shape we are in.

Only because the previous administration allowed it! There should have been a process!

Woodson can and will get the program back to respectable program! I think we are further ahead than what most people thought we would be

Exactly! You can’t put a “zero tolerance” on him when he’s gotten away with so much crap over the years. Counseling, anger management classes, frequent accountability meetings, etc. should have been implemented. You have to give someone like that the tools to change and time.

I wished he would have because it would have made the team better and his draft stock would be higher

TJD gets a combine invite! https://www.thedailyhoosier.com/trayce-jackson-davis-received-nba-draft-combine-invite-video-shows-perimeter-ability/

This comes down to one thing, Miles Brand’s agenda to make a name for himself. He didn’t care about the fallout, the university or the basketball program. He wasn’t about to give RMK any rope or leeway, he put the zero tolerance on him knowing he would mess up. Also, the biggest conspiracy theory in this was RMK was totally setup & provoked with that student. If that was the truth, Miles Brand was probably the one who set it up! Mike Davis should have been the interim coach that first year then they should of hired a more experienced and better coach, instead here we are!

Uh no, Trayce does have an outside shot! Wow, where was that all season! With that, he will climb in the draft. He may not be back! But good for him! https://www.insidethehall.com/2022/05/06/trayce-jackson-davis-shows-off-perimeter-shooting-at-los-angeles-workout/

Why not add some mid majors like Wichita State, Dayton, VCU, St. Mary’s, etc. I like the concept. I also would like to see it become a tournament!

It seems that is the same theme for all Way-To-Early Top 25 polls! Michigan around 10-14 and IU around 12-21

I listen to several but I believe it may have been Podcast On The Brink!

I’ve been hearing rumblings that Dennis just might wind up in Bloomington no matter what. I also heard a podcast today that also makes me feel that way too. I don’t know what roster changes would be made, but TJD not coming back makes it easy but I think TJD will be back and don’t be surprised if Dennis is on our roster as well

That is awesome!!! Makes you really like the kid even more! I think it is great for him, his community and those kids.

I think Race will make a jump up in 3 point shooting %. You may see it over the 35% mark!
