It helps, of course, that Alford is making millions. And at many schools, kids of school employees or faculty usually get a break on tuition (maybe even half price). That's why I always thought it was wasteful that Pat Knight was on scholarship at IU. For one, he wasn't a Big Ten-caliber player. For two, his daddy made millions. For three, he would've received a break on tuition anyway.

Thomas Bryant trending down accoridng to Ford, from 53rd in Jan to 57th today. not athletic enough. But not even 20 yet. In neon: COME BACK.

Is it legal for a guy to give up his scholly if he has the financial means to pay his own way? Didn't a Louisville player do that a few years ago to make room? 

I think it's legal but keep in mind only Hartman and Gelon are Indiana kids and could maybe handle the cost as in-state students.  All of our other players are out-of-state and the financial burden would likely be much too high.

Those 2 were the ones I had in mind. That said I have no idea if they come from situations that could comfortably handle it. Just an idea I was throwing out there.

Would Hartman be eligible for Grad school funding?

Can confirm.

Kyle Kuric (from Evansville) gave up his scholarship his senior year at Louisville and played as a walkon.

I worked for the parent company of Mad Mushroom for awhile.....the Btown location went away when the landlord wanted to redevelop the property it sat on. They stil exist at Purdue and UK.

TB coming back is a big deal for us next year. He had an okay year but was really not ready to be playing on the perimeter. We should quite honestly dominate with Bryant at the 4 and Davis at the 5. How long has it been since we had a killer front court combo?

He will be back. I bet he does not even test the waters.

He's gotta be able to guard as a 4 or we'll have to do something defensively so he isn't exposed. Davis also has to get better at not committing fouls or that could be a brutal combo lol

I have a feeling Justin smith might not be back. With Collin coming back it could of changed his role on the team.

Plus, if we go big Juwan will be playing the three. (And thriving). He showed a lot more athleticism than his freshman year. I think we're going to see a complete difference maker the next two years. Losing OG sucks but Juwan is as close to a complete package as anyone we have!
