I am not getting excited about anything until they are on the court winning.  We do this dance every offseason where we get a team that looks OK or even good on paper and then just...meh.  

I am holding all excitement until after the Bahamas trip.  That is where they can change my mind.  Until then, I expect Woody-ball no matter who he has on the team.  We had the best roster (by HS rankings) in the Big Ten last year.  Woodson can get talent, he just underperforms with it.

Agree. We had Liam signed, and still a no-show. Even an NLI means nothing at this point.

Mack is a slightly better shooter in a lower conference (which doesn’t always translate) and is 6 foot. How is Perkins not a playmaker? 15 ppg in the B10 with a 2.5:1 A/TO ratio isn’t a playmaker? I get it, he’s not a knockdown 3 point shooter, but neither is Mack. IU needs multiple guards and not just guards who can shoot, but guards who can score.

He put up the same assist numbers in conference as Galloway. And let’s not forget he was in Iowa’s high tempo offense with some shooters. Mack did his work with much less talent around him.

Mack also has 3 years left…. Perkins is done after next year. Again, to me, it’s not close….

Sure, take them both. But if you have to choose… Mack

To each their own. I’d think you’d have to be mental to pass on a quality starting P5 PG. In a perfect world you get both.

Perkins was second team All-B1G correct? Not sure you can pass on that in the position IU is in

Tony Perkins is a grown-@$$ man on the basketball court.

Sign me up any day any way for adding him.

Don't worry, NGW says we got this on lock.  Woodson is just brilliant and we are morons and this is all just a genius working the process.

I cannot wait until November to see this brilliant new approach to basketball that Mike Woodson is working this offseason.  We should be Big Ten favorites with our Top 5 salary and our ability to completely outbid people by not having money tied up in high schoolers.  Expect to win the event in the Bahamas to start the year.

These dumbasses pull this **** every summer.  By the bar they are setting, anything less than 25 wins and the Sweet 16 should be viewed as a failure.

Let's examine the evidence:

• Loves Woody
• Constantly asks others to "just chill"
• Plays basketball at such a high level he would be immediately recognized

NGW is...

Tony Perkins this past weekend vs a below average Utah team.

 

3, 3, and 4. 
 

29% from 3 and 78% from FT for the season. 
 

He’ll fit right in!

Does it really make a difference. After a year under Woodson Mack would probably transfer anyway.

He'd probably be scared away anyways by Galloway and Cupps returning.

Who’s your top target for that spot?

78% ft isn’t good enough?

He’d probably instantly be the best free throw shooter on the team, no?

And the best 3PT shooter at 29%….   :)

Mack is a super fun player and will likely be very good at a power five, but I’m partial to the guy that averaged 15 points a game against Big Ten defenses. And he’s a local kid. And he plays angry and defends and really rebounds considering his position.

If the same people who are calling for Malik Reneau to be our five think that we can have skinny, low, physicality guards, you’re asking for lousy roster construction again.

Mack’s size is a problem.

I think my biggest thing is Mack has 3 years left.

Meh…I’d argue with Woody your defense is going to be pretty bad anyways. I’d rather throw up some points in a desperate attempt to be above average.  
 

Roster construction is relative. We’re always going to lack something with this staff. I think bringing in below average 3pt shooters to pair with Galloway is the epitome of bad roster construction.

Yeah good choice however he won’t have free rein to shoot as much as he did against Ivy League competition in a power conference.   Every player is going to have bad games.  I watched Mack play over 30 min and shoot 2-11 (O-4 from 3) against a terrible Penn team.  Posting individual stats from 1 game is pointless in my opinion.    Both would be upgrades to what IU had or has.
