GET YOUR VACCINATIONS CHUCKY!

The argument you seem to be implying here is that Roby can develop in style as opposed to developing as a minor leaguer, which is likely where he would end up if drafted. However, it's been noted that Roby tends to struggle on the court when he's needed to step things up in the classroom. As a pro, he's got nothing to work on but basketball. Some guys need the structure of college coaches telling them to work or whatever. That doesn't seem like an issue for Isaiah at all. He absolutely should go and will be drafted. Hopefully he can crack the first round.

one large word titles >>>>>>> 10+ small word titles

A couple of things 1. NBA teams draft on potential. 2. This draft is projected to be weaker than next year's draft

Well, yeah. If an ankle injury lingered this long we would have tried to figure out why. This seems like an issue where it was diagnosed that it would take X number of days/weeks to heal and he probably got lost a little in the shuffle when he transferred. To me the issue I"m reading from his tweets are that some people opined he was dogging it when in fact he was not.

He's not walking on anywhere and he's not coming here.

We don't and that was a Miles offer. I'd assume that Texas Tech got better commits after making the national championship

Paging @Norm Peterson

You'd keep him because he's essentially a grad transfer to the new staff.

They have Kentucky level talent now. I'd estimate the coaching chops are there. This looks like a 6 seed at minimum.

Didn't these FBI trials prove that even if you're trying to pay guys they still don't end up at your school? In addition to all of these local talented kids you're talking about 3 NBA guys in Penny, Sam Mitchell, and Mike Miller. A combination of local talent and selling yourself as a road to the NBA is what most 5 stars are looking for

We signed 2-3 guys in the lag in took for the Jays to offer Coleman

Thorir will be playing the in the Small State Games of Europe so he could be late. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2019_Games_of_the_Small_States_of_Europe

I'd like to think between Hoiberg, Doc, and Lutz that we will figure this out but just assuming we're going to be good because we got a brand new team doesn't mean everyone and everything is going to gel together. I can very easily make the argument that Indiana's roster last year was more talented than the one we are going to roll out and that thing was an absolute mess that pulled it together for an NIT bid. Those Hoiberg plays don't work so well if guys are injured or fighting over the same girl in January.

Here is my Abdelmassih grade

It's basically how they put it together and we're in the same boat but we don't have a roster full of NBA players. Thus, I'd say we have the talent to make (and even win a tourney game next year) and we also have the volatility to be sub-.500 if we can't figure out how to put all the pieces together.

Walk-on

Kentucky every season (with more talent)

Xavier Johnson compares pretty well to Curtis and Dachon Burke is probably a higher level profile transfer than Walker. Matt A hasn't necessarily pulled guys that are higher rated than what Miles did....the truly impressive part is the speed at which it occurred. If you surmise that the longer you are at a school and able to start relationships with kids when they're 15,16, the better you get you can come to the conclusion that Hoiberg's staff's floor in recruiting is around the same level as Miles' ceiling.
