If true, then we'll likely start getting some assistant coach news fairly soon. I hope so! April eval period right around the corner and Miller needs a staff. Class of '66 Old Fart and Stuhoo 2 Quote
Trish Posted March 30, 2017 Posted March 30, 2017 11 minutes ago, Baltimore Hoosier said: Not saying I blame him. Just don't see his skill level translating well at the NBA level at this point. You might get guaranteed money for two years if you're OG, but what happens after that? I'd say he's got it pretty good at IU. Why not stay, work on your game, work on getting a degree, show you can evolve as a player, and be a lottery pick in 2018? Or tear your ACL again and be done forever. It's too risky on his behalf. He's projected lottery right now, might as well go and get yourself that money when you know for almost a fact that it will be there. IUsafety and thebigweave 2 Quote
Popular Post mdn82 Posted March 30, 2017 Popular Post Posted March 30, 2017 Dump priller. Scholarships are renewed annually. We need room for someone who can contribute Sent from my iPad using BtownBanners mobile appA new coach will not come in a situation like this and start dumping players. Let alone one that is a fan favorite. That would be the definition of stupid, and one that would make many enemies of the people he is trying to create relationships with. We need to have 9-10 people that can go at a high level. The days of having shift changes and going 17 deep are over. Having Priller for 1 year will not kill this team.

goonaha Posted March 30, 2017 Posted March 30, 2017 How?Just think none of us are well placed to guess on who will and won't get drafted or succeed in the league . I've also noticed that die hard college fans are very biased against the NBA and that clouds their judgment. Finally, I think people shouldn't count other people's money or tell young men what they should or shouldn't try to achieve.Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app Hoosierfan2017, moyemayhem and Stromboli 3 Quote

Trish Posted March 30, 2017 Posted March 30, 2017 If anyone is gone, it's more than likely Gelon. I don't see him being rotation player at all for the next three years. Quote
Class of '66 Old Fart Posted March 30, 2017 Posted March 30, 2017 Somebody asked earlier today about the deadline for withdrawing from draft consideration. Players have until April 23 to declare for the draft and may withdraw their name any time until May 24 while keeping their eligibility. They also can participate in the NBA Draft combine from May 9-14 and starting in late April may work out for individual teams to gain feedback from scouts and team personnel. Tom White 1 Quote

None of the mock draft's I've seen have him in going in the lottery at this point. Also, he could tear his ACL at practice or in a D-League game. Don't think you make decisions based on the fear of injury. I feel like his stock would only improve by staying. Quote

I really want OG to return, because I'm a selfish IU fan. That being said... OG should care about being a first round pick, not a lottery pick. That would give him the guaranteed millions for multiple years that should be the baseline for going pro. Would he make more if he was a lottery pick? Yes. But if he were successful in the NBA, he would also have one less prime year in the league to earn big money as a free agent. That would likely cost him more than the extra money he would earn from being a higher first round pick. ElectricBoogaloo 1 Quote

Hoosierfan2017 Posted March 30, 2017 Posted March 30, 2017 If I was OG I'd take the money and run. I really want him back, but I wouldn't take the risk of a career ruining injury to play for free if I was him. ElectricBoogaloo, Stromboli, Hoosier Roots and 4 others 7 Quote

ebridges24 Posted March 30, 2017 Posted March 30, 2017 of the seven or so mock drafts i looked at, OG goes anywhere from 13 to 18 and Thomas is only listed in the 1st round on one, 22nd. Kepner 1 Quote
