CMW wants long athletic basketball players!

So do I. The program got noticeably slower and less athletic in the Archie years. Good to see it's being addressed.

I just know the last few years watching the SEC and big 12 and the type of Ayers in those conferences. I then look at IU and the big ten and it is totally different game. I see those teams having long athletic wings and forward and don't see much of that here.  We seem to be getting better in that category with Ware,Walker,Banks,Gunn and Newton. If we can get Mgbako that would get us to the point that we can compete athletically with those teams.

I understand that but I also think there's a reason he's here and Bates isn't. I think he'll play a lot, starter or not.

 

I agree 100%

Max Abmas to Texas. Really good pickup for them.

Edit: I guess this happened a couple of days ago but I missed it then. I wonder if has anything to do with Holland decommitting. They play different positions but I wonder if Holland thought he wouldn't get as many shots as he wants.

Quick question, Tyger Cambell isn't in portal is he? I just heard a huge rumor that he is and IU is the front runner. My daughter's bf just told me.

 

Neither he or I have any idea if this is true or not, but if true, I like it.

 

Guess we will see. Until I see his announcement, I will be dubious, so I'm just trying to find out for sure if he is in portal or not

Declared for the draft and I’ve heard credible rumors he’ll transfer for weeks. Good college player but not an impact pro. I’d heard him linked to Illinois but I don’t think he’s even in the portal yet

He entered the draft and it sounded pretty definite when he did. Something about having graduated and moving on to the next step.

I believe Holland decommiting has more to do with Disu coming back. Just my guess.

Why would he want to come to a team who has a starting point guard ?

That is what I thought but wasn't sure. My daughter's bf is an Illinois fan(yeah, I know. That is his only negative I've found, though) and he said Illinois is not a favorite now. Again, he didn't know if that was an absolute truth. Just passing on what I heard.

Just start 2 PGs

Xavier Johnson can without a doubt play the "2" in college.

That was sort of the plan last year, XJ and JHS, but that didn’t happen of course.  Maybe CMW wants to try it again!

By the way, whatever happened to the Arkansas player that testing the NBA waters but may put his name in the portal?  Any news?

[Ryno6284 2,517]

2 PG's who can score?  Yes please!

JHS was not a PG!

Didn't mean he couldn't play one.  He wasn't slotted as one when recruited!  He was a bucket getter!

[croneleoni 180]

JHS was a PG. He was our backup option. If not, who was the backup going into the season?

I could be wrong but didn’t he play PG his senior year?  I am pretty sure that the plan was him being the point guard when XJ went to the bench, but I could be wrong

He was recruited to IU as a pg.    I posted an interview with him before his commitment and where  he wanted to play in college was Pg.    IU recruiting as a pg was a big plus for why he chose iu
