Let’s speculate . . .

 

We convince Love, Ware, and Ledlum to become Hoosiers. Assuming no one else leaves, with Sparks already on board that’s 4 of the five spots filled. Do you:

1) Try to get another combo guard/wing?

2) Bring in Doughty from Ben Davis?

Another wing

IU’s not recruiting Doughty.

Really wonder if the Caleb Love talk has some legs. We badly need a guard or 2. We don’t seem to be heavy on any besides TimberLake who isn’t in play. Interesting.

Seems like Battle/Ledlum are front runners for a 1 spot from our staff.

Seems like Shedrick is 1a as our starting 5 option. Ware being considered either as a push or backup option.

The guard spot and the 5 are critical.

I'd gladly take either Ware or Shedrick.  Ware wouldn't be coming off the bench and I don't think Shedrick would either, so Reneau as the 4 in a 4 out 1 in offense?  I've got a hard time seeing that.

Agree. I think Woody knows he needs a defensive big. That’s not Reneau. I’m feeling it’ll be Shedrick. I doubt Ware is a real option for us still. I personally like IKE but we don’t seem to having any traction there.

I'd be fine with Shedrick, just don't see how it works.  Either Reneau is coming off the bench again or he's the 4 but I have a hard time seeing that.  Good problem to have if Reneau develops like we hope.

Reneau is the 4.   Despite what woody says about the offense they are recruiting the  5 men to play along side Reneau.   Sparks is the backup 5 and now they are going after their starting 5 in the portal

If XJ doesn't get his waiver, it's one more transfer or recruit needed, correct?

I gathered that's how they're recruiting.

1. Johnson (if he gets a waiver)

2. Transfer guard (Knecht/Love?)

3. Transfer wing (Ledlum/Battle?)

4. Reneau 

5. Transfer big (Ware/Sheridan)

 

Just seems closer to what we ran this year instead of the modern offenses that advanced in the tourney, though maybe more athletic on the perimeter depending on who the players are.

We need a shot doctor, too.  Love (if we get him) could use help if it is not too late.  Heck, IU needs help at the line. Well, XJ could use assistance in closing.   And Galloway...  Explain to me who our 3-point specialist is.  Oh, yes...another PG...is it Cupps?  A frosh...? Is this the way of the future?  Scrambling for transfers...  Teammates won't click until well into the conference games.  Hope that Woody is asking: "Can you guard?"

No... Gallo is a wonderful 3. He shouldn't, and he needs to be recruited over for playing the 1 or 2. Getting Johnson back and getting Love would help that. You'd have Cupps and Gunn that can help at the 1 and 2. Gallo gets minutes at the 3 where he belongs.
I agree here. I think Galloway is much more suited for the 3 spot rather than the secondary ball handler.

Received a Ball St offer. From my admittedly single viewing of him, that sounds about right. 

could follow same route as Sparks.  One to two years at Ball State equivalent school then make a P5 jump

...not trying to knock Ball St. or others of the like, but it's similar to going the JUCO route until a big school notices you. JMO

I would agree with this as well. Not sure I want him to be our starting 3 but a backup playing the 2 and 3 would be nice
