This topic needs some noise. Come on TB give us some good news

[Class of '66 Old Fart]

It's somewhat irrelevant because he isn't tying up a scholly but have their been any rumblings about McRoberts status for next season?  Given the minutes he played for us last season, it's really a shame there isn't room to give him a scholly for next season.  In terms of on-court value, he's more deserving than MSB - yes, I know I've just committed an act of heresy - and certainly more deserving than Gelon.

This would be the example where only having 12 scholarships on the roster coming into play. Give it to a kid who has earned it through practice, make a big deal about it being a feel good story.

Cool seeing all the assistants in the video. It seemed like Green had good body language in the clip, which is important imo since it seemed like he had checked out last year. Archie even snuck in a partial smile.

Yep I wanted to give the scholarship we used on Gelon or McSwain on Niego but nope...

Honestly I'm not sure why people dislike the Bruiser Flint hire. I watched the 30 for 30 on Calipari and Flint sounded intelligent, passionate, and truthful. If I was a top notch player, I'd play for him and buy in to his philosophy. All in all, CAM really did hire one of the best coaching staffs in the nation

Time to put this discussion in its own thread?  We're now 2 pages off-topic.

A lot of good points. Wilt scored 100 under those arcane rules

McRoberts more than anything was given so much time because of other player lack of development or misses in scouting.  I like McRoberts, but I'm hoping he isn't being counted on next year to play the kind of minutes he played last year.

Blackmon posted an Instagram story saying he's gonna miss James Fraschilla. Didn't he just get hired by IU or am I making that up?

He was a grad manager last year and probably is moving on with the coaching change

Odd thing to post now if he was already set on leaving.

According to IU's website, Fraschilla is currently on staff as a "graduate manager" -- whatever that is. But he is listed as a member of the 2017-18 staff. Perhaps that was Blackmon's way of biding adieu to IU.

FWIW; Middle School Bob just posted a picture with the team at Showalter Fountain titled "Squad."

 

All walk-ons and eleven of the current scholarship players in the picture. The only two missing?

OG and Thomas

The managers probably won't be updated for a while, I don't think Blackmon would say farewell to IU by saying he'd miss a student manager. Ostrom was already at IU a while before they finally put him on the staffs roster page.
