Our five "big" non conference games

[quote name="Str8Hoosiers" post="73207" timestamp="1404575050"]He is a beast but he isn't a post player. He gets his off the offensive rebounds, or in transistion... Obviously he is probably working on his post play the most during this off season... but he is only 6'8" so I think DD will be able to body him up if he tries to play down low and Troy I think will be able to neutralize his athleticism..[/quote]

True on how Harrell gets his, but I don't see many guys in the nation, let alone for us that will be able to body him up. He's a bruiser with a midrange game.

[quote name="BGleas" post="73077" timestamp="1404424672"]SMU is going to be a top 10 team. Most likely, we won't be favored in that game. Not saying we can't win, but IMO it's not a game we should bank on winning or consider it a huge disappointment if we don't.

[/quote]if we can stop mudiay we can beat them

This is more of a HOPE than a true thought.... with my wife being the biggest UofL fan  have ever met I always hear about him and how much he is going to dominate us.... even if we lose the game if we shut him down I will be a little happy (of course more happy if he scores 50 and we still win)

I unfortunately have to agree with this. But, I'm very excited to see Yogi and Mudiay face off. I really don't know if Yogi can guard him. He's a very large PG.

Yogi did a pretty good job on the guy who was larger than him, that was the leading scorer in the B1G last year, and got drafted in the lottery!

[ccgeneral 38,084]

fwiw. UoL also has 4 guys from 6'9 to 7'2 in their '14 class. Add a 6'8 SG to that to.

Hanner, DD, Hoetz, JB2, and Yogi for that game. Yeesh

Emmanuel Mudiay will (emphasis added) bypass college and pursue a professional career, per multiple sources.

[Walking Boot of Doom 18,170]

Wow. This is somewhat unprecedented since the new age requirement rule, is it not? At least for a recruit this high profile. Crushing blow to SMU.

Wow...... Great news for IU, I guess, although it would have been a good game for Yogi to showcase his skills.

[KelleyHoosh 2,263]

Good in terms of odds of winning the game, bad in terms of playing the best and tournament preparation.

Crushing blow for SMU

Still top 25 for sure. In the teens probably.

Brandon Jennings was a highly rated Burger Boy, but that's it. I think that's what you were asking anyway.

Still an extremely tough game. Don't underestimate Larry Brown.

[BubbleKnuts 569]

It will still be the toughest Non-con game next to Louisville. <br /><br /><br />Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners
