With Dorn? Dorn put up similar numbers to Miles in a much better conference. Not convinced Miles is that much better than Dorn, if better at all, at least offensively. Not a bad problem to have either. 

Fair enough. One of those two will probably end up a deeper bench guy I would expect though. Agree you can never have too many.

Do people have a preference for federiko vs Miller? I feel like Miller has more potential but Federiko knows his established role as a rebounder and lob threat and has at least proven himself at texas tech last year

The most important thing is defense / rebounding, and I haven't watched any film to judge either, but it's worth noting that Miller had nearly three assists a game. Really good for a big and seems to fit the DeVries system. 

Miller's a better shooter, too, as seen in threes and especially free throws. If defense and rebounding is close, I say Miller.

If the staff wants Dorn all they have to do is walk him up Eagleson (formerly Jordan) today. It's wild how many people are out. One sorority has at least 40 girls laying out, one fraternity has a 40-foot slip N slide with a huge party going on. I felt like Old Fart when he forgets his heart medicine walking by.

Ah, the good old days.  Back when Little 5 was fun with massive blowouts.

Little 5 in the old stadium -- Still strikes me as wild that it was torn down and replaced with the green next to the Library

I think with how DeVries runs his offense we might only get 3 big men… Curtis and two additional over 6 ft 10 with alot of 6 ft 8- 6 ft 9 guys because most of the time Tucker will play offense at 3 and defense at the 4. He will play 30 plus minutes a game so there isn’t a big need for a ton of 5’s especially with Reed. It could even be Reed, Curtis, and one other 5 either Miller or Texas tech kid

I tend to agree. Mobile bigs that fit the system designed to get out and run. 

Ah that sounds so, so much better and more fun that the last 4 years, and really 8.

[ebridges24]

do we really have a shot with any of these bigs or are we just throwin' names out there?

I think Fede could potentially be a nominal “center” vs B1G 10 competition but Miller is probably too thin/light for that role. His skill set more nearly resembles Bailey’s.

Pretty sure Iceland is the capitol of Finland.

I'm pretty sure that was back when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor.  I think it changed now.

Probably the Can't Remember thread as in I didn't attend IU, but did go to one Little 500 and don't remember anything from my first drink till I woke up in an apartment somewhere in town the next morning.
