Here at BtownBanners, spelling and grammar matters. That's why we're better than you, and we know it!

Our coach may suck, but we stick it with proper 'merican!

I get a sinking feeling that some shoe is gonna drop soon. No inside info of any kind. Just a sinking feeling.

 

Or maybe it's just gas.

I have a feeling someone might leave that we didn't expect at all. Hopefully I'm wrong .

We both must have eaten the same burrito because I feel the say way.  We've solved the (current) oversigning but we're still hoping for Bryant and maybe even another signee so it seems a foregone conclusion that there will be at least 1 more announced transfer.

[biteoftheapple 4,115]

There are 2 highly likely candidates, and whoever the surprises may be.

@Justin_Albers: Indiana is heavily involved with JUCO guard Mychal Mulder, per @jdemling. He’s visiting Louisville today. Read into it what you will. #iubb

I think its just typical Crean. Wants 10 guys on the roster who are 6'4"-5" guards.

He does?

It's much more likely they are doing this as a contingency for Yogi leaving or another player leaving. You'd think we'd have learned after last year. Anything can happen. I think it's probably easier to deal with know nothing's complaining about oversigning than know nothing's complaining about not having enough scholarship players in a given year.

Good read from SI about Shooter taking over at UIC.  Loved his take on building a culture where players "recruit" the community.  

 

Wish him the best moving forward, I will be pulling for him!

@AssemblyCall: It's silly to get worked up over offseason workout reports …

That said, Troy Williams is going to be 1st team All-Big Ten next year. #iubb

[Bobman1 2,909]

I would suggest that are entire starting lineup works on 3pt shooting. Maybe a little conditioning as well, just to make sure we can run up the floor. This whole summer should be spent on those two things alone

Id rather have Troy working on his ball handling than his 3pt shooting. We don't need him to shoot threes, we have plenty of players who can

I would prefer him working on decision making. His handles could use work too. If Troy can average more 3PA while maintaining his percentage from last year we will really be able to spread the floor. Hell we might actually see Troy play on the wing with two "bigs" on the floor at the same time.

With Troy I tend to lump decision making and ball handling in the same category so I definitely agree with you
