"Lyle has changed his mind a few times, but he's focused on playing immediately -- preferably at point guard. He likes Florida State, but the Noles currently have three players who can play point guard: Devon Bookert, Ian Miller (a senior) and Montay Brandon (who is better on the wing)." 

 

Interesting that they chose FSU for him and were fairly confident about it.

If Yogi has a monster year, I could see him leaving, opening up immediate starting time for JaQuan. I really want Lyle, but, at this moment, I don't think he comes to IU. 

IMO Yogi will have trouble ever getting in the NBA, let alone leaving after 2 years, we'll see.

Basically, he's just an average player? We're screwed then.

He's not an average college player, but if you want a shot in the NBA at his size you have to be really skilled, look at DJ Augustine... He is an awful NBA player.

he is 5'11, average shooter, average facilitator, not an elite athlete.


Yogi is an above average facilitator. And how is he not an elite athlete? Because he doesn't dunk on guys? I agree with you he will have a rough time making and staying on an NBA roster but I think he can do it. What did Derek fisher ever do exceptionally well? To me that's the most comparable guy that's already a proven pro.

Augustin was still a lottery pick. I'm not projecting Yogi's career, but a possible draft position. With such a deep draft, I don't expect Yogi to leave anyway. He'd have to have a monster, monster year.
