We should be a legit FF team. This is top to bottom Creans best team at IU.

Certainly seems like we have the most depth. I'll hold off on really backing this statement until we see how our depth holds up against UL and UNC.

If JBJ and TB can have Oladipo and Zeller 2012-2013 type years, I completely agree that this is his best team. Those two were so reliable.

Additionally, since I went with the comparison, if between Newkirk/RoJo/CuJo we can have at least freshman Yogi type production/facilitation at the PG spot, there is no doubt that this team is better than the 2012-2013 squad.

I think this years team has a higher ceiling than the 2012-2013 team. Will they be as consistent?

I personally see considerably more depth in this team than 2012-13's. That team only really went 7 men deep, and had no big behind Zeller of playing significant, productive minutes.

This year we already have 4 capable guards (Newkirk, Blackmon, Johnson and Jones), two capable stretch wings (OG and Juwan) and it looks like 2 bigs (Bryant and Davis). That's 8 deep, with more balance and versatility.

That's without Collin Hartman and not including Green, who has shown shooting talent in one of the exhibitions. Maybe McSwain can develop into a decent role player too.

And there's always MSB... just kidding

What is the possibility that Harry Giles takes Jay Williams advice and focuses on rehab this year and not playing for Duke. Prepare for the NBA draft and not get injured. Would it hurt his draft status if he did this. Of course playing could hurt it. He may get exposed and not be as good as advertised or get injured again.

Our next opponent Liberty lost only 64-59 to VCU. Won by 20-30 against some joker school.

Almost went to LU. Loved the school but $30k/yr was too much when I was able to go to any IN state school w/free tuition. Still pretty bummed that this game won't be on TV.
