If they bring in another guard, that's fine, but I don't think we need one.

How bout injuries, illness we need another guard.

If they're just needed for injuries or illness then we really don't need them it's more of a nice to have. I'm fine with that but for me we have our core team and if someone joins, that ok.

This isn’t debatable get another guard while the fire is still hot. I for one don’t think he’ll get the waiver. Guards guards guards! Just sayin.
Ahhh, the ole Indiana Fever approach..........who needs post players when you can have all the guards!!! 😃

This would make it easier for Tavion Banks to come back and it potentially would allow Bennett Stirtz to come back as well.

Any chance we go after Damon Wilkinson in the transfer portal? He is 6’10 245 Forward. It might a good replacement for Alvaro who really should have been playing the 4. Wilkinson averaged 13.9 points and 6.4 boards per game this past season.

It's my understanding that even under the new rules B1G men's basketball programs are keeping scholarships at 13. The Hawks currently have 13 on scholarship for next year. The only way they add a 15th guy to the roster would be if he is a walk-on or one of the 13 guys goes off scholly. In the latter scenario, the likely candidates are Matteoni and McCollum.

Seems like there are at least 2 ways for Tavion to get another year at IOWA:

(1) Win his pending appeal (if he doesn't, he could sue).

(2) If this 5 year thing passes, he could sue to make it retroactive.
