From what I've been told everyone is back, Galloway, Leal, Bates, X, Kopp, LD, and then just waiting for TJD, Race and JG to decide

Have to think we hear something by tomorrow on this.

Well that is true. Does it have significance outside of that? lol 

Fantastic holiday btw.

Haha no. I just remembered he announced last year before the final four.

Yeah I was kind of told that something would be happening this week. Was hoping it would have been by now

A poster on ITH said a good friend of his, from Bloomington, told him Trayce and Race are signing a new lease, and will be back. 

He said, at this point,  take it for what it is: a rumor.

A man can dream!

Plus, I would love nothing more, than JG developing into a wing.

If…IF we have a lineup of Trayce, Race, JG, JHS, and X? With Tamar, Trey, Kopp, and more off the bench?

The sky would be the absolute limit in year two of the Woodson era.

Not only that, it would speak volumes about how our best players feel about the staff.

In your opinion, IF TJD and Race come back...what would your guess be on the chances JG comes back also. I've heard that people think that IF Race and TJD return, he will leave for minutes. (Sorry if you've already answered)

I would feel much better about that than if XJ & TJD left.....but that roster still seems to lack shooting.

That's my ideal starting 5 as well! Let the depth, from game to game, decide who the finishing 5 will be.

Add a Sparks, or a "shooter" from the portal, and this team could be very dangerous come March!

Plus, excited to see Banks. He will be what CMW's teams will look like in the future.

I would absolutely love it if TJD and Race came back, but somehow JG would start over Race. Feels like a pipedream, but I think that frontcourt would be nasty.

But the defense from that lineup? OMG

I believe they can play together.  They both both made enough 3's to at least keep the defense honest. Plus, it would still be as good of a threat than our wings last year. I also believe the key is TJD developing at least a midrange game. We need the lane opened up a little more , for our penetrators. 

I could even see some JHS on the block, a few possessions a game.

I’m not sure but hopefully he can be talked into it. As some others have said try him at the 3 and see what happens.

Considering he has 3 years left of eligibility I can see him staying and seeing what happens next year. No matter what I think he at least sees close to 20 minutes.

Do players have to declare still if they are going to test the NBA waters, get feedback etc or can they just get that now. I remember TJD not bothering with this last year but can’t remember many announcements from kids at other schools deciding to test the waters but not hire an agent.

Yes. In order to work out for NBA teams they have to declare. That's why I'd be kind of surprised if he doesn't declare just to see.

That would make me very very happy but still would like to get a proven shooter. Even if it's in a Zeisloft like role.
