Someone with more knowledge can correct me if I am wrong, I do think everyone gets one this year so those who were juniors will be juniors next year eligibility wise. I think. So Rob should still have two years left, I think.

Last year was a free year for players. It didn't count against anyone's eligibility.

I expect him back but I do think he will declare but not get an agent. 

And he absolutely should test the waters to reinforce that he really needs a year with Woody

There will be more than 2 spots available though because not everyone will be back. 

[Hoosierinbham]

So Brunk is basically a bonus scholarship for this year. Perfect.   I want all our guys back, but hope CMW makes it perfectly clear that spots will be filled. Players get to consider options, and so do we.

Why doesn't Brunk count moving next year?

Because with the COVID year your seniors that want to come back will not count against your overall scholly numbers.   That is only for seniors and this year only

Gotcha. Felt like I knew that, but couldn't figure it out. Thank you.

Man if you were a good senior laden team and had a strong freshman class coming in to replace those seniors it will be interesting to watch those teams

For example Butler has 4 seniors coming back. 3 of which are starters and 1 is a role player. That said those roles could change next year for them.

Or freaking Wisconsin if their seniors come back.

I can not take another year of Brad Davison.

Most of their seniors have already said they are not coming back. Trice, Potter have already said so. Reuvers is already in the transfer portal. Also read a few articles that acted like Davison was not coming back.

They have a lot of young guys from the last two recruiting cycles that have not played hardly at all.

[HoosierFan1994]

I'm more open to everyone coming back now that there are two spots. I thought there was just one.

I sometimes think it's crazy how long Joey Brunk and Ali Patberg will be in college hoops, and then I think of Wisky where six years is par for the course.

Everyone forgetting about Gunn? He just announced his commitment to IU and Coach Woodson yesterday.

It was posted in his thread.

He has been discussed and is a 2022 commit as well. Most of the focus is on 2021 season

[Brass Cannon]

I initially thought Woodson would be clueless to who he needed because being in the NBA.  But since he was bucking for the job and Archie was clearly on the hot seat I wonder if he had started working on a list of guys that fit his system.
