Run and gun and don't worry about the other team scoring 2s. We're going to be the old Denver Nuggets in the B1G. Michigan might dunk on us every time down the floor this year.I believe in Hoiberg, put this is kind of a head-scratcher. He might be a good outside shooter, but nobody plays defense in JUCO. It won't be easy for a 6-1 guard to get his shot off in the Big Ten. We desperately need big dudes who can rebound and defend.
signing a 6-1 sharp shooter wont help with rebounding but I guess you cant rebound a made shot

I'm still not sure why he left NU. I have a hunch that there wasn't great chemistry between Morrow, Jacobsen and the some of the guys who followed them. Obviously Miles played a role in that.
Rebounding help is on the bench. It’s a shame Stevenson is ineligible this year. He’s probably our best rebounder even though he’s 6’6.
I’d guess we will see some attrition as well. The kid from Prep id guess will move on. And I wouldn’t be surprised to see Thor move on. I like Thor but he’s just not a Big Ten player.
We need to hold on to the sit outs and Mack, Green, Yvan, and Kevin. I wouldnt be surprised to see Burke Arop Thor and Curtis all leave next year. We've got to get Sallis from MN signed. But now that KU is in the picture I feel way less confident and we've got to find a couple lengthy wings that can shoot. I think Yvan can be a great big if he grows a couple more inches. Which is very possible given how young he is.Samari Curtis might be another one that transfers after this season. He's hardly getting any playing time, I expected he would play more considering he was Mr. Basketball in Ohio.
I'm all for recruiting outside shooters, but it's frustrating that we seem to be the only program in college basketball that can't recruit a decent player over 6'8".
