Probably could have been more clear. Meant the 3 to mean with portal AND a decommit (Tucker)
With 3 added via portal and decommit, are we now better than last year?
- Thread starter rocketo
- Start date
I agree. And we should win 2 games at least. If Woodson cannot take millions in NIL and build a really good team, then he simply needs to go.
Pretty sure they have been pushing for him. At least from what has been reported.
Depends…
Rice is probably better than Cupps/X from 3
Galloway/Caryle—-similar numbers
MM- volume should go up
MR- similar numbers
Ballou - Won’t shoot any, Ware volume gone here.
One thing is for sure..we will be better at the PG position and we need some bumps from MM and Galloway/Caryle for us to be a good shooting team
I like Carlyle because he has 3 years of eligibility left. That could be huge going forward. Nothing wrong with getting them both.
We won’t get both. These guys are going to transfer to a place they play. Conwell has 2 years left. I prefer Conwell, Indiana kid and can shoot.
Zero excuse to miss the tourney next year. That should be guaranteed termination. We had better not only make it, but make the S16. Anything less, and he risks termination. If he makes it, then gets slaughtered in the first or second game, it should be the end of the experiment.
Talent yes.
We won't be able to guard the perimeter and we'll have nearly 500lbs in the paint that combined shoot just over 50% from the line. One is foul prone and the other goes 25mpg.
I think we're 3 games better.

Carlyle was a freshman. He was very good his first year and has a lot of room to get way better. Having both him and Galloway makes the team that much stronger.
On that Carlyle/Trey comparison. Guys do improve year over year. Yogi wasn't much of a shooter his first year, but got a lot better going forward. And please work on that "Carlyle" spelling.😉
Only time will tell, Next year is HUGE for Woodson (an understatement)
Sweet sixeteen should be the minimum requirement in year four with a loaded roster. Also top three in big ten. He will once again have more five star players than anyone else in the league. Crean made the sweet sixeteen in year four and he started with zero players. Woodson started off in a way better position.
Yea. This team is loaded with talent, much of it with college experience.
Our spend on players and program (including the coach) is all top-10 in the country. The results should reflect that.
We should be in the top part of the conference and doing something in the tourney (as in a S16). And if we don't, we'll see what the admin and donors think.
Assuming we get Carlyle and he gets at least a shooter and frontcourt depth/bench with 2 more spots, I think this team is much better and way more well constructed. I know some don't like Ballo, but honestly I think he's too good not to take. Tucker sounds like he an play the wing and we have Newton back. Seems like a real backcourt with depth and Ballo and Reneau are two likely all B10 types and project as the best frontcourt in the conference and one of the best in the country.
Even though Ballo and Reanu both score mostly in the post, I think it might be a better pairing because it leaves the perimeter more open to Reneau and clarifies their roles. I think Reneau and Ware both wanted to play the same way on offense which made less of a good fit.
