I don’t think there will be any bigs added. The last roster spots will likely be wings/shooters.

IDK. We're pretty thin in terms of bigs. Brunk, TJD, Race, and Duncomb. We don't even know if Brunk will be back, and if he is, can he stay healthy. Total wildcard. Not sure how much we can count on Duncomb year 1.

So as far as 4 and 5, you're left with 2 guys you can depend on. TJD and Race. And it sounds like Woodson might like TJD to be more of a 4. 

I do agree it would be nice to pick up wing/shooter.

Think you will see Hunter and Geronimo at some 4.  With Race back I don’t think we are that thin in terms of bigs.

Hunter and Geronimo at 4 is OK situationally against some teams, but I'd prefer some additional prototypical bigs. 

Our roster is overloaded with tweeners IMO. Give me a roster like Baylor. They have 6 guys at 6-8 or more.4 of those 6 are 6-9 or more. They use two of those guys as flex G/Fs.

I would go after a Big, just to be safe

A big and another shooter would be ideal.

[HoosierRobbie]

Definitely need another shooter.

Robbins would be my priorities 1-5. He’s a big that can shoot. Could be on the floor with any other big.

How many guys are even in the portal that would start.  Assuming they aren’t a point or center 

Illinois Loyalty had a few posts saying Indiana was on Miller.  Don't know their sources but it was brought up there.  Was back on Tuesday I believe on their transfer thread.

I will be very surprised. I don’t think he wants to share playing time and we are pretty deep at PG.

Dream scenario:

Tre Mitchell at 6'9" 240. He is a TJD clone physically with added 3 pt threat.

 

Noah Locke another deadly outside shooter.

 

[ap2345]

He was recruited by UCONN out of high school so I'm guessing this is another Kenya Hunter contact.

Apologies if I missed it, but is Adam Miller considered an option? Could see XJ, Miller, and Stewart thriving similarly to how Illinois' guards did last year. Is it unlikely just because he's at an in-conference rival or are there other reasons?

No, he wants to be a point guard and his family is considered to be crazy.

Kevin Easley Jr entered the portal. From Indianapolis. Had a huge freshman year at Chatanooga before transferring to TCU. Had a meh year there. Just bring him up bc he’s 6’7 225 and seems to fit the mold Woodson goes after. Only shot 25% from 3 on 2 attempts per game but his freshman year at chatanooga he shot over 39% on 4.3 attempts per game. 

Did Mike Roberts recruit him to Chatanooga?

Seven small/mid major programs and us. I wonder if he's leaving because he wants more playing time. If not, we stand out.

He's an interesting prospect; a four star with high athleticism that has been injured for most of his time at UL. #2 all-time scorer in North Carolina high school ball. High-major offer list out of high school--UL, UNC, Baylor, UConn, etc. Good kid--both parents college athletes and mom is in military. 

Could be a 12th/13th player for this year, with upside to be much more than that.

One of these things is definitely not like the others.

It's got to be a Kenya connection.
