He never said the pg had to be big. You can have a smaller pg with length at the 2-4 spots and then a post.

Losing Race would be really tough IMO. Even if TJD stays, we're going to be low on front court depth. That could change with transfers, but we need guys there.

If we play 4 out 1 in, TJD, Brunk and Duncomb would be plenty of depth at the 5 in my opinion.

Virginia Tech transfer Jalen Cone has Indiana in his final 7. 

His stats are not overly impressive, if I'm looking at the right guy. Plus, he is really small. I thought Woody was looking for some size?

Starting point guard for UCLA 5'10, starting point guard for Big Ten Champion Michigan 5'10. If you can play, you can play. You complain about Lander's shooting, we start to recruit a shooting PG and you complain. Pick one and stick with it

Do you know where Woodson said he wanted bigger players? I missed that interview or quote.

I think if lander leaves we will make a really strong push for that Pg from pitt. Hes played with parker before and we would have the perfect set up for him. I dont believe well have him and lander both though. One or the other. 

Johnson came in the year after Stewart left.

Hit it right on the nail.

4 out 1 in never says it has to be all big guys. You just have to be able to defend multiple positions. UCLA & Michigan both had starting PG's who was 5'10. This kid led the ACC in 3 point shooting as a freshman. He is an elite shooter

I'm not exactly complaining about this guy, I just read Woodson wanted players with height, which I'm still unsure where he said that as I missed it.

I don't anything about this guy so I can't say he's better or worse than Kristian. I think Kristian has potential to be a Top 5 player in the Big Ten. Tall task, but he has the tools.

Yes but this kid is an elite shooter. Woody is going to make sure we have shooters on the floor

Pretty sure the opening presser but it could’ve been one of the radio shows.

I hope I’m wrong, and I think ideally we want someone who would welcome competition, but I get the feeling that after last year Lander and family will want the keys to the backcourt to himself. I know he’s close to Leal and Galloway but I’m sure this isn’t how they envisioned year 1 going.

After not getting a lot of room to grow last year I think they may look at this free COVID year as a chance to start a fresh somewhere he will have free reign. Idk, I just don’t have the warm fuzzies about him or Armaan coming back which would suck.

Interesting to transfer. 

20MPG as a freshman. Was out the final month due to a foot injury. 

Northern Arizona in the mix? He has a couple mid-majors and then some big schools. Looking to play in a big role? To be the #1 option? This should be interesting.

Let's see if Woody's NBA pull is a factor here. 

[Hoosierfanyuh]

My thing with the transfers is as long as we dont have to play them so be it. But its sounding like that may not be the case.

What if Franklin is worried about a diminished role because he knows there’s another two guard on the roster that is better than him?

I mean are you hearing this? I have a hard time believing it for multiple reasons but I guess it could make sense.

In all seriousness, if P Stewart is excellent and we don’t lose production that’s great. I’ll still be disappointed just because Armaan seems to have the trajectory for something special as a junior/senior and I selfishly want that to be at IU. After his Bankers Life performance as a freshman I feel attached! Lol

True, but if TJD is back along with Brunk and Duncomb the 5 is very well covered. I suspect Woodson is looking for 3 & D/Stretch 4 types to replace Race. 

Race is a good rebounder and solid defender, so hate to see him go, but seems likely.

Yeah Archie's problem was that he usually played three guards and they were all pretty small guards. One 5'10 guy isn't going to kill you. It's when you've got a backcourt that looks something like 5'10, 6'1, 6'3 that you start getting in trouble. In Woody we trust! I like the players we seem to be going after.
