Think I’d rather have Johnathan Powell than B. Tucker — just not convinced he’s going to translate his physical tools to being a winning player, don’t think the jumper’s there and he’s not on track to bring enough else to make up for it.

Would love to be wrong, and I’m curious to see what DDv makes of him if he stays.

This I disagree with vehemently. 

I think he can be Roosevelt Jones ish.. but we would need to be skilled at the 4/5 to make it work..  

Skilled like Bittle, not Ballo. 

Pieces, not just talent. 

 

Tucker cannot play on the same court with Malik, Leal, Ballo... absurd to think by Woodson.

That would be great, and the Sencire Harris example suggests DDV would play a non-shooting perimeter player who brought enough other stuff to the table.

I would think shooting development is the best way for B. Tucker to be a positive contributor. Frosh shooting isn’t always a great long-term indicator but he was 21/64 on far 2s and 3/20 on 3s ~ combined about 28.5%.

The thing about him most likely Roosevelt now is the finishing; pretty good in close: 8/9 dunks plus 24/43 on close twos (~61.5%). But the handle, vision, feel, defense…long way to go.

I’d be ok with Conwell, DeVries. Tucker. As a 2,3,4. Get a good PG and C and let’s roll. 

Didn’t Braden Smith grow up a Hoosier fan? Can you imagine the Purdue meltdown seeing that guy in candy stripes?

Fresh start is much needed and makes me more excited tbh. 

Sisley as the last link to the Woodson era and he totally committed with eyes wide open on the coaching situation. 

That kid's a Hoosier through and through.

Will be pleasantly surprised if Goode gets another year, but would be excited for him and us. 

IUBB is going to start meaning something again... soon...

Yeah, Sisley is a Woodson recruit but not tainted by Woodson's "coaching" and "culture."

There's a world where we're a really good team with Sisley starting at the 4. If he's the 5th option doing all of the little things and being the connector that he's shown he can be. If we're talking about a true 4 out line-up it works.

He only held out this long to “try” to prove a point to Rabjohns. I guess it sorta changes the narrative but not really.

Anyway.
DeVrires gets to have a Crean style rebuild. Lol. Hopefully we don’t have to endure 3 years of pain this time.

With the portal, it shouldn't be as painful as those 3, but I wonder if he had to think for a minute if he wanted to stay?  Did he not get the NIL that he wants?  Did CDD think about it after watching some game tape that he might not want anyone from last year's team?  Time for a fresh start.

Sisley is not a Woodson recruit. The kid commuted here despite Woodson. He was coming here regardless of who the coach was. Like someone said a true Hoosier through and through.

I’m hopefully kidding about the 3 year thing. DeVries is being paid and has the money to build a top 15 team in 1 season. Just gotta see what happens.

Tucker was always going to transfer. Family just doesn’t like Rabjohns and didn’t want him releasing the info/early.

Whatever, dude. Woodson was the coach when Sisley committed, ergo he's a Woodson recruit. I agree that he would have come regardless of who the coach was but facts are facts.
