Best case right now would be Essegian, Malone and hope for Humrichous? 

Could see this - Humrichous would get the last scholly that is being held for a "rainy day"?

Reed Shepphard is the only one I remember off the top of my head. The other two were from schools I'd never heard of. 

so non power 5? maybe even not Big East, AAC, or whatever?

Lot of posters really underselling Jakai and I fully understand why.  But if this kid can come back to 90%+ of what he was IMO he won't be the 11-13th player on the bench.  Maybe on the first day of the season but not by March.   

I thought I saw somewhere(maybe here, HSN or social media) that when Newton played with Rice and Kanaan all together on the AAU circuit while Ya was coaching and that Newton had a higher ceiling than Rice and Kanaan.

Definitely not P5

I lied. Josh Hubbard-Miss St and Marcus Banks UMBC were the only other two to shoot above 35% on the needed volume to qualify.

After a season like we just had... probably a good category to be #1 in :)

I would agree that a healthy Newton probably has the highest ceiling, particularly defensively, though Rice seems to be more instinctive and Carlyle has more of a scoring mentality. But they didn’t play travel ball together. Newton played UA, Carlyle played EYBL and I think, could be wrong, that Rice played 3SSB.

I'm tired of winning April... I want it to translate to B1G and tourney success.

Me too.  I was just saying it as a joke.

I quoted this a week or two ago.

The other two guys were from non-P5 schools and ranked in the 80’s out of the top 100.

I didn’t recognize/don’t know their names either

I've lost track at this point. I know that IU is notoriously secretative about injuries. And yes, I understand HIPPA, but other schools often do provide more info about injuries than IU does. Did they ever actually announce what Newton's actual injury was?

i could agree!  All three complement each other rather well

Can’t imagine he would. He’s gonna get starter’s minutes somewhere.

Don’t remember for sure where I heard it, might of been a YouTube video that was trailing him that I saw,, but I believe he said himself that it was originally diagnosed as a meniscus tear, but there turned out to be more to it. Made it sound like the procedure he had 3-4 months ago was not that big a deal and was precautionary though he wasn’t specific.

Maybe not absolute best case, but very realistic it seems. That assumes Humrichous is content to make some $$ to come off the bench.

I think we closed gentlemen (and a lady). 

This is not from my normal CE contact.. trying to get confirmation.
