Goode is a great 3-poit shooter, go Hoosiers and win more than the Big 18. Better more balanced than PU was last season, more talent more overall athleticism and much deeper. Ware just signed a $9,000,000 guaranteed money and if it extends out to 4 years, 22-million total. Go KelEl
As IU fans, maybe we should lower our expectations a tad or just freakin get hyped up over the talent, experience, and depth of this squad. I will take the latter. How long has it been since the Hoosiers have a pre-season ranking? To long! Wts…..it should be a very entertaining season and one that I believe will be a memorable one!
Starting off with "as IU fans maybe we should lower our expectations" then saying I expect a memorable one.. kinda contradicting.. let people be happy lol
I think that Galloway and Leal could do something like what Ron Harper and Brian Shaw did for Phil Jackson and the Lakers. They are the canny veterans that can come off the bench and restore order at times when the team is getting back on it's heels. I disagree about Tucker. I think that his challenge will be to become a lock down defender with his length and athleticism.
I think Rice is the #2 true pg in next years draft. Traore and Harper are the only two primary ball handlers that can go in front of him . This is year 2 after beating cancer.
Let's not get too far ahead of ourselves. We've seen the way Woodson does substitutions this past season. It tends to be a platoon style until he succumbs to fan/media pressure. That's my personal issue with Woodson's coaching style. I don't think he has a very good feel for the momentum of the game at the college level. He is used to long NBA seasons where he is trying to micro manage minute restrictions. You don't have to do that as much at the college level. Hopefully he can learn to adapt or I fear he will just underperform with this roster as well.
After watching over an hour of highlights on Myles Rice I am super impressed. A great dribbler of the basketball; changes speed and direction like a major NBA point guard. He reminds me of the 76ers point who can penetrate good defenses. Rice averaged almost 15 points and was Freshman of he Year in PAC. So IU has 2 Freshmen of the year and a ton of other talent. Don't forget Jaki Newton who is a great athlete, strong and talented. Rice better than PU's Smith
If Galloway is healthy watch out. He will be the spiritual leader of this team. He has worked his tail off and relishes one more try to get deep in the NCAA Tournament. Mgbako will shock a ton of people as will RIce and others
It comes down to the Reneau/ Ballo mix.
Cupps should redshirt.

Depending on how well Newton plays, Gabe will probably lose out. It might actually be better for him to redshirt this season.

Man who is this dude 😂 Tucker is a STUD. Also, Cupps will get minutes because of his heady play, defense and ability to run the offense
Ballo, Mgbako, Tucker, Rice and Carlyle is your money line-up.

PU takes a step back however still a tourney team.
