Been a lurker forever and this got me to jump in. 

I see a ton of comments (not directed at you Golfman25) about this being crazy, ruin things, NCAA will stop it etc. 

While they might make changes they can’t stop this without entertaining the whole employee/student issue. Regardless of that, I don’t think many BB and Football fans understand this is the norm in the majority of college sports. You have always been able to transfer without penalty in sports like soccer for example. 
 

You may say this is different. Too much money at stake. Ok… but then you are back to the whole employee/student thing. 
 

With minor changes, this is here to stay. 

Slight correction: they haven't always been able transfer without penalty in other sports. However, the transfer rules which are new to basketball and football were implemented in those other sports a few years before the major sports. So they've had the current transfer rules for longer but it definitely wasn't always like that. I'm not sure how much longer they've had those rules but I think it's less than 5 years.

So realistically, what are our chances with Love? I'm already seeing comments from Purdue fans who appear to be nervous about us getting him, and are dismissing it by saying it would be a mistake for us to bring him in. 

Any time the PUke fans say something is a bad idea for us to do, I'm all over it... in spades.

It's all good guys.

Let's move on and keep discussing the transfer portal.

Sounds like some decaf may be in order this morning.

You need 3 centers on the roster and Reneau is going to play some 4.

If IU bring's in another center, Reneau is starting at the 4.

He better start getting that mid-range shot perfected.

How many did we have last year? 

3 (TJD, Reneau, Duncomb) 

I really like the idea of adding Shedrick, will allow IU to match-up with the hulking monstrosities of Purdoo but also go more up-tempo.

B1G could still have a lot of good centers next season (Edey, Dickinson, Dane, Crowl....)

Technically 4 but 2 played a lot at the 4 and 1 was an All American that played almost the entire game most nights.

Probably but nothing is guaranteed.

100%. The option to play big and small is huge. (Especially when playing big with athletic guys who can go grab a rebound). Sissoko barely saw the floor in Sparty’s game vs KSU but was instrumental the round before

Per Rothstein, IU, along with everyone else, has reached out to AJ Storr.

Pretty sure the only time I seen him on the floor, I saw the ugliest jumpshot in CBB.

I'm all aboard the "don't tweet at croots" train, but I can't help myself...I laugh at this meme every time, no exceptions.

I'm a simple man.

[Loaded Chicken Sandwich 9,062]

I wonder... I we are going after another big man with Shedrick and Ware... Does the staff have Reneau slim down and work on his speed and agility to play the 4? If he can hit 3s at 30% or better next season, he's going to be a good spot as a stretch 4 where you at least have to respect him shooting a little.

So two 5’s then.

Exactly my point.  
 

Everyone was/is real excited about playing a “modern” offense that is 4/1 with a pg and 3 athletic wings.  
 

Sparks may have come here as a backup but it surely isn’t as a garbage time guy 3rd center. So if we get another coveted 5, it will be to likely start with Reneau. I suppose the other alternative is that Reneau is possibly gone. I hope not. 
 

 I’m saying prepare your expectations accordingly.

Curbelo moving on from St. Johns, he's in the portal. 

I would love to have heard what Slick Rick had to say about him and then, his response...lol
