FWIW, I am going to be posting guys I think are capable of filling out a power 5 roster, whether it is at IU or elsewhere and whether it's a starter or end of the rotation guy.  I'm not suggesting any guy is a fit for IU...there is a separate thread for IU interest.

I believe you are in the right thread for that calculation.

Portal doesn't officially open until Monday but I saw a report that 1,200 have already announced they're portaling!

Until they can allow for multi year agreements i think that is the new reality. The benefits of which should mostly flow up to programs like IU.

Braden Smith approaching his last days with Purdue? I can see someone throwing a bag at him, interesting replies here.

Man, that would be something. Feel like Purdue will do whatever they can to secure the necessary funds. 

[FightFor6 1,129]

Braden Smith, Ryan Conwell, Tucker Devries backcourt? 

Just kidding. Kind of..

I know Im supposed to hate purdue but Id kind of hate if he left for another school. NBA sure but kinda sucks for college basketball that Purdue was Smith's first and only power conference offer and he'd leave them as a senior after all the development there. Idk maybe unpopular opinion

I hope he leaves, shaves his beard, and averages 8 points somewhere.

A 2y, 2nd year team option. 

[RaceToTheTop 30,020]

Tyrell Ward, LSU 6'6" guard.  In 22 minutes per game averaged 9.1 points, 2.3 rebounds, 0.8 assists.  Good three point shooter, was 52 of 126 (41%) for the year.

We should clean up and we will get to see how DD roster building looks like.

Another kid that had an IU offer.

Arizona State guard Joson Sanon plans to enter the transfer portal, sources told ESPN. Former top-25 recruit averaged 11.9 points in 2024-25, showed flashes of being one of the most explosive freshmen in the country. 15.9 PPG in opening month, 18.8 PPG in final five games.

$$$$$$

[Demo 22,587]

ASU’s Joson Sanon entering the portal. Under the old staff it would have been reasonable to assume IU would have been in here. 

[Demo 22,587]

Notre Dame’s Tae Davis entering the portal. Warren Central kid with 1 year left. 

[hoosierbannerd 3,183]

So as of now, no word on any other IU players portaling?

Spring Break. Meetings with DD first. I expect an avalanche of them tomorrow.

Alex Chaikin from Lafayette would be a good bench piece. 6'5 shot 80/167 for 48% from 3.
