  1. Even if they do. Unnecessarily making the road harder. Not to mention the fact that we already lost one home game with the extra Big 10 schedule. This takes another away. 20 conference games (10 on the road) 1 Away Game vs. a Top 20 team 2 Home Games vs NCAA teams last year and probably NIT at least this year 1,possibly 2 Neutral Site games against P5 teams that won 20+ last year That's more than good enough. Just for reference, no Big 10 team played more than 5 P6 teams in their non-con last year. And that was with 2 more games to play. If we play USC and Texas Tech, we'll have 6 with a tougher conference schedule. There's nothing smart about that. As I mentioned before, there's a far better chance this game bites us then it does help us.
  2. My issues with Jordy aren’t that he’s not Olajuwon or Mutombo. It’s that too often he thinks he is and tries doing too much on one side of the court and ends up needlessly turning it over or committing a stupid foul. If he embraces his role and plays efficiently, than he is an asset. If he continues to commit dumb fouls, miss layups, turn it over, then play a smaller more skilled lineup
  3. He's a troll...dont know why people cant just ignore him by now
  4. Pass if he's not eligible this year
  5. Thats a damn tough game too. Clemson returns quite a bit and added a good grad transfer
  6. They were better at the end of the year and they bring just about everyone back I wouldn’t have them in front of Maryland or Purdue but they’ll be much better
  7. Jones doesn’t concern me too much. Struggled to play on a bad Indiana team. Who is the grad transfer
  8. They’ll be young. Lost 5 of their top 7
  9. No on marquis for MWC.
  10. Agree. I'd take Smith over Jordy. I guess you can say his upside is higher, but Smith knew his role and did it well. Smith was more efficient. I'd love to have him/someone just like him on the roster this coming season.
  11. They might not be good. But someone who is/was expected to be bad might be good. It will balance itself out. Not to mention we added 2 power conference games organically with the conference scheduling. Last year was an outlier. We are reacting to the exception, not the norm. I think it's far more likely we are unsuccessful in some of these games and having them come back on us, then the same situation like last year occurring a second year in a row.
  12. I think the conference is going to rebound with or without Huerter
  13. We weren't going to have a shortage of those types of opportunities this year. And everything corrects itself in time.
  14. Dependant on how we do the rest of the way it could. We already have a damn tough schedule. It's overreacton to a fluky outlier year last year. 20 conference games and 6 more majors? That's damn near unreal for a regular season. Whether it is basketball scheduling or anything else, I'm never a fan of making things harder than they need to be.
  15. And the game is overkill
  16. The Scottsdale account is a complete troll.
  17. Cook came back. Iowa will be good
  18. Would love the Tennessee st guy. Also would love the umass guy too because he has two years to play while still being a grad transfer
  19. I think he'd be ready. It'd be ideal because of what's around him too. Yeah. Jordy off the bench. Roby and Copeland need to play as much as possible. Give Jordy 10-15mpg depending how quickly he's piling up fouls that game.
  20. I think the big question is who wins the 2 spot. Allen/Thor/Akenten battling it out. I think NaNa might be the odd man out there. Harris will play. Think Borchardt sees some spot time right now, depending if we find another big. Hopefully we do.
  21. In fact, we came out ahead
  22. No. Need a shooter in there and don’t think you want to play all 3 of your frontcourt players at the same time. Need to stagger the rotation a bit
  23. We should be and that shouldn’t be hard to find between Harris/Allen/Thor/Nana
  24. Terrific news if he’s really coming back. Was more concerned about him than Palmer
