Str8Hoosiers Posted October 29, 2018 Posted October 29, 2018 Indiana Breakdown: Bring in a potential scoring and all-around college superstar (Romeo Langford), combine him with one of the three or four best players in the Big Ten (Juwan Morgan), team them up with one of the best young coaches in college basketball (Archie Miller) and that's my kind of wild card team. Indiana's forecast for 2018-19 is foggier than almost anyone is willing to admit, so here I am to clear conscience. I honestly believe the spectrum of outcomes for this team is as low as 18 wins and a 4 seed in the NIT ... and as high as a stunning national title run. Who knows, really, what to expect in year two for Miller at Indiana. He's coached himself into some amazing seasons with less-than-ideal roster situations in the past. Now he gets a pretty good IU team that wasn't as good on offense last season as it could have been. Class of '66 Old Fart and thebigweave 2 Quote

Jeremiah April was in the same class as Robert Johnson and Priller the Thriller (and Emmitt Holt)...how the heck is he a junior? Quote

Great question, after a quick deep dive through Wheeling Jesuit's roster, April played one memorable year at IU ('14/15), set out a year ('15/16), played one year at Wabash Valley JUCO ('16/17), set out a year ('17/18), and is now playing his third year, Junior season, at Wheeling Jesuit. Division II has slightly different rules in terms of eligibility so this isn't a big surprise. Net, Jeremiah is on the 6-year plan and living his best life. PRIOR TO WHEELING JESUIT Played one season at NJCAA Wabash Valley (Illinois) in 2016-17 ... appeared in 26 games with eight starts ... averaged 4.0 ppg. and 2.7 rpg. ... Also played one season at NCAA Division I Indiana in 2014-15 ... Appeared in four games, playing a total of 17 minutes ... scored six points, grabbed five rebounds and blocked a pair of shots ... began the season by playing seven minutes against Mississippi Valley State, where he scored two points and grabbed two rebounds ... played five minutes against Savannah State, blocking one shot and coming away with one steal ... saw two minutes of action against Louisville ... in his Big Ten debut, scored four points while hauling in two rebounds in win at Rutgers https://wjucardinals.com/roster.aspx?rp_id=4278 HoosierX, thebigweave, mamasa and 2 others 4 1 Quote

Class of '66 Old Fart Posted October 30, 2018 Posted October 30, 2018 (edited) Don't think we have a game thread up for the Friday Thursday night exhibition game but it will be televised on BTN Plus at 7:00 ET with a replay on basic BTN at 11:00 p.m. that same night Friday night.

WayneFleekHoosier Posted October 30, 2018 Posted October 30, 2018 Hunter is going to be really good. Always have been excited about him. Not sure how much run he will get this year with Smith and Langford, but he could be our go to player as a Sophomore. I personally like the thought of Hunter, Langford, Smith together.
