Saw that and thought it is a pretty solid take. Of course, ITH is consistently excellent IMO.

Do they have anything similar for upperclassmen? I admit I would have thought we had more top 25 guys. I assume we have more contributors who are upperclassmen but I wonder if I am wrong on that too

I don't think they have a separate list for upperclassmen. I haven't seen them do one in the past either. Who would be on there from IU?
Priller, McSwain, Hartman, Newkirk? No
Morgan could play is way onto a top 25 list by the end of the year.

RoJo? With RoJo, Newkirk and Hartman you have three of your top 7 being seniors that have played a lot. I wonder how those three compare to other teams upperclassmen

Rojo was ranked 13th on that list. DD was tied 25th.

Seemed fair. Morgan could get there. Maybe Newkirk. Maybe Hartman. But list seems fair for now.

Agreed. If anything DD could be over-ranked if anything due to what he accomplished last year. I could see that argument from other fans and I couldn't disagree.

Newkirk, Johnson, Hartman, Morgan, and Davis, if all healthy and playing their best, have a chance to be a really good starting 5. There's a lot of versatility and experience with that group.

 

Edit: hoping for a season where the sum of its parts are greater than the individual talents, for the first time in forever at IU.

Interesting read on Tournament expansion. I'm not in favor of it, but it is interesting.

I was asking my dad a question yesterday and I asked him: What is going to be this season's definition of the word indefinite?

They're probably trying to figure out why the ball is round and why there's no grass.

Man, Jontay Porter to re-class to 2017 to play with brother at Mizzou this year. Ranked 10th for 2018.

Michael Porter, Jr. #1: 6'10" SF

Jontay Porter #25 (2017) 6'10" PF

Jeremiah Tilmon #40, 6'10.5" C

That's one talented Freshman Front Court.

I hope they demolish pUKe this year!

Glad they're in the SEC. We definitely don't have to worry about the top freshman missing the tourney this year.

Mizzou is going to be very good! Crazy how a team can go from last in the SEC the last few years to probably a top 10-15 team. It helps when you hire a father of two of the best high school players in the country!
