I'd bet Troy is gone.

I'm going to stick my neck out here and say that I'm not so sure that would be a bad thing. Just my .02 cents.

I will take a graduate guy over thon BTW too. As long as he is skilled. We need more leaders next year and I believe Thon wouldn't start for us. OG and TB are both ahead of him in mock drafts. DD is vastly underrated and I feel will have a huge impact as well. I want a graduate wing/stretch 4 more than thon maker whether that is crazy or not just how I feel with losing yogis leadership.

I want another Biefeldt. Clearly we can develop even a grad transfer in an off season. Let's find another talented transfer.

Don't count on thon going I doubt he'll go to IU but if he does then look out

I couldn't agree more. Don't understand some of the hate or doubt for troy he's a phenomenal player and has had a great career. Would love to be able to watch him for one more year

Bryant will be back. I just have a gut feeling this kid is very smart and knows 1 more year gets him better and makes him alot more $$

[WayneFleekHoosier]

Just awesome!

Johnson/Newkirk/Green

Blackmon/Jones/Gelon

OG/Hartman

De'ron/Juwan

Bryant/Holt/Priller

My prediction: next season could be even better.

Sure won't be the same without Yogi.

Really like those line up possibilities. Looks like a good team. Priller and Gelon shorten the bench a bit. Need to stay healthy. JB worries me that he can't stay healthy.

[WayneFleekHoosier]

That starting lineup could be nasty.

Holt?

[AKHoosier]

I keep completely forgetting about Curtis Jones.  I honestly know nothing about him other than he seems to be a good scorer.

He is a complete x-factor next year. If he can provide good 3 pt shooting and perimeter defense, that would negate the loss of Yogi quite a bit.

It'll have to be a replace-Yogi-by-committee approach, which makes me nervous because 2 of the guards in the rotation will be coming off significant injuries: James Blackmon and Josh Newkirk.

Holt?

Just have a feeling he will be returning. Not just because he showed up the other night. His dismissal was different than the others

I mean we even have solid depth there, Hartman started most of this season, Morgan is pretty solid off the bench and I even think Curtis Jones will be helpful off the bench even if it's only for his shooting (though I think he can create some too).

That's not even mentioning Green and Newkirk too.

I made the comment last night that Troy probably increased his draft stock by 30 spots .

If Bryant and Williams leaves, I'd it too late to land a stud that can play right away?

I think an improved OG and a healthy Blackmon can replace a lot of Yogi's offensive production. Someone needs to replace his leadership though.

What? That isn't how the draft works.  Troy might have marginally improved his draft stock, but 30 spots, for a 21, 3 assists, 3 turnover, 2 rebound performance?

They were exaggerating, but he probably improved it as all 21 came in the second half against a very good team
