Transfer Portal w IU Interest
IndyHoosier1997 replied to Class of '66 Old Fart's topic in Indiana Men's Basketball
Would love this kid, putting up 13/7 as a freshman is impressive and he’s got good size at 6’8 210. Hes not the defensive big we’ve been looking for, but I do think we need to add some young guys. -

I agree we need to look at defensive bigs, but one of the teams in the national championship in Houston weren’t exactly playing your typical rim protecting defensive bigs. They didn’t have a player in their rotation above 6’8. -
Theres been plenty of discussion in the transfer portal thread on where Torvik is placing us with each transfer, and using it to justify how impactful/good our transfer class is over the last day or so. My issue is no other metric or deeper analysis is being done beyond just citing Torvik by certain posters.

I don’t mind a reference point, but pointing to Torvik and solely Torvik seems like less of a reference point and more of a standard which is where I take issue

https://x.com/CBKReport/status/1831451453573202325 posting this since we apparently love to cite where Torvik is placing a brand new team preseason, sorry if I do not particularly care what Torvik says.

Agreed, I would also like to still emphasize how absolutely useless computer rankings are when it comes to team building with a bunch of players playing together under a new coach. Completely different system. Some guys will overperform in that system, some guys won’t. But what the computer says they did with completely different teammates with a completely different coach in a completely different system doesn’t matter to me much at all.

Are we using preseason computer rankings to determine whether a teams roster is good or not? You’re collecting for the most part 13 players who’ve never played together under a coach they’ve never played for, sorry but the computer rankings are somewhat useless to what DeVries is going for. -

Trilly prediction for Miles to Indiana -

How would we feel about a small ball starting line-up? Something like: Conerway/Wilkerson/Miles/DeVries/Bailey in theory you’re playing small ball there but still decent size across the line-up… 6’3/6’5/6’6/6’7/6’10 isn’t exactly a tiny lineup. -

Saw Jack Endries from Cal is into the portal, really good player. had nearly 60 receptions and 600 yards at Cal last year, think he’d want to follow his old QB to Bloomington? -

I think you can be flexible, but I’d probably ideally look for an athletic 4/5 hybrid who’s in the 6’8 - 6’10 range and can play around the rim and help us defensively.
