Do we still only have half a team?

Jalen Sullinger, 5'10" guard from Kent State.  Averaged 15.4 points, 2.6 rebounds, and 2.4 points.  Shot 42/39/85 and is a career 40% shooter from three.  Nephew of former Buckeye Jared Sullinger.

Played against him last year in NCAAT. He's been a solid player for them but he was 2nd or 3rd fiddle last year correct?

Would love to see Johnell Davis from FAU come home to Indiana to play. If he has any eligibility left. I haven't checked but I think he does

Tell him if he comes to IU, he can bring Dusty with him.

Think he was like a 9 point scorer the year before.  Made a jump this past season.

Still trying to figure out what FAU does on offense. This is painful basketball on both ends.

He does have one more year. Stayed with FAU and Dusty this season when I'm sure he had plenty of options last offseason. I suspect he's a strong candidate to follow Dusty to his new job.

Agree, but this is what Northwestern does. Aggressively double the post, play physical, muddy the game up and dare the refs to call everything. They have made some pretty good Big Ten offenses look ugly the last couple of years.

As a buddy texted me no one teaches tackle basketball like Collins. I replied Izzo and Painter are pretty good too

Will Jalen Blackmon want to come home for his last year and a paycheck?  No doubt he can shoot!

It’s a pass for me.  He plays defense like his brother and doesn’t get the separation he will need at this level.

Did you watch that UCONN game?   No hustle no trying.  Man got by him with ease.

Offensively against tournament teams and NIT teams this season he shot 35%, 30% and 24%.  I don’t know….i just don’t see a high level shooting guard that will make an impactful difference.

Naw, was watching other games. Didn’t see any of it.

I did see the Hatters play FGCU here this year.

It was bad.  I was like people want this dude.  Checked his stats to see who they played after that and was like he didn’t have a success against the higher level teams he played against.

He is good for that level but once he goes out of it I see at best a backup.  But then is the lack of defense worth the offense that he could potentially generate.  I say no.

That’s BS. Blackmon against P5 opponents prior to yesterday:

Houston #1 KenPom D: 4/13 3/7 from 3 11 points—guarded by Jamal Shead the best on-ball defender in college basketball

UCF #17 KenPom D: 7/13 6/9 from 3 26 points in a game Stetson won

Cincinnati #15 KenPom D: 10/22 5/12 from 3 32 points

Dude can play. UConn is on a different level than any other team in the country and wasn’t going to let Blackmon get going.
