We're gonna make a name for ourselves when it comes to physical development. Al's looking pretty cut now. It's really going to help with recruiting.

I would send my congratulations if he was trying to be an Abercrombie model.

Hopefully the 6-pack helps his shooting stroke....:)

 

PS. I do admire his hard work and dedication.

God can only hope.

Is it safe to assume that no one is leaving?  I'm guessing we would've heard something by now if so.

Starting to think so.

Makes you think the players believe something special will happen in 2019...

And that all of the current players are buying in to Archie's coaching philosophy.

I am surprised. I hope Green proves me wrong about him.

If Green can learn to play consistently near his peak. Wowza

1: Green; Phinisee
2: Romeo; Durham; Damezi
3: Justin Smith; McBob, Jerome
4: Juwan Morgan; Race Thompson Clif Moore
5: DeRon Davis; Jake Forrester

I realize these aren’t hard set positions at all but I’m curious which 10 get the bulk minutes.

I really like Jerome Hunter and want to see him get some run.

Exciting times ahead if we get Romeo in the fold.

Could see Thompson being our Primary 5 if Deron can't figure out his defensive role. 

[rebelhoosier848891 9,588]

It would be shocking but refreshing to see a year without transfers. That would speak highly of the players respect for Archie and that they are buying into his vision for IU Basketball. Experience is so important in basketball and it would be great if we didn’t have so much turnover year after year like we have done in the past....

Completely agree Wayne on the lineup. I think some forget how good De’Ron can be and I think Smith belongs in the 3 spot. Davis was playing terrific against duke before getting into foul trouble and we should have some nice backup options this year too. Another year of conditioning and work will really help.

For a guy that is talented but not especially quick, athletic, or high motor, after an Achilles tear it would absolutely shock me to see DeRon Davis have any kind of real rotation impact value before January.

In fact, it would surprise me a bit to see him have any real impact next season period, and under the right circumstances (but only based on my speculation) I could see him being a red-shirt candidate.

 

[Stuhoo 81,288]

 

Currently I see ten players in the rotation for next season. Who starts and who finishes is subject to evolving season-long processes, save for the guarantee that Juwan and Romeo will be locked in.

1. Morgan
2. Langford (if we close the deal)
3. Green
4. McBob
5. Smith
6. Durham
7. Hunter
8. Phinisee
9. Race
10. Either Moore or Forrester

That's a top twenty group right there, I tells ya!

We want to add one more big because of Davis injury. I can't wait to watch some high-level open gyms this summer.

Would you guess grad transfer, reclass or somebody still left in 2018

First guess would be grad transfer, second reclass and last someone left in 18.
