IUJoe Posted March 7 Report Share Posted March 7 53 minutes ago, DC2345 said: I can say this with almost certainty. Woodson doesn't care what the roster looks like after next year. He's all in on winning next year. I could see a really great year or an absolute disaster, and probably little chance of anything in between. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tdhoosier Posted March 7 Report Share Posted March 7 (edited) Just need to layout my thoughts to get a grasp on our situation. Feel free to agree or disagree. Best case scenario, we need 5 players from the portal? Gallo Leal - posisble graduation? Sparks Gunn - transfer? Banks - transfer? Renau Ware - nba? Newton - healthy? Cupps Mgbako - doubtful to NBA? McNeely open open *red = likely departure (gut feeling - no knowledge) *yellow = possible departure/unable to play Portal Needs (in order of importance) - my opinion 1. starting PG 2. shooting Guard/wing 3. back up 4/5 4. back up combo guard/ball handler 5. back up wing Portal Needs (in order of importance) - what I think Woody will do 1. Starting PG 2. Starting 5 3. back up 4 4. back up combo guard 5. leave it open (I intended this to be a joke, but it wouldn't surprise me) Edited March 7 by tdhoosier Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DWB Posted March 7 Report Share Posted March 7 I think Gallo has already committed to stay (assuming he doesn't want to enter the portal) Leal probably wants to get on with his R/E career, BUT he could see some significant playing time next year based on our "holes" in the roster. So he "might" come back, but I doubt it. Can't see Mac leaving just yet. He's a major part of the offense. I just hope McNeely doesn't change his mind and request a release. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If today is true then yesterday's rumors become just that, and vice versa.

If he goes someone it would have to be down. no? He is part of the problem currently, but dont get me wrong. He is almost part of the solution in the future. That's the expectations from a 3 star freshman. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm basing it all on my gut feeling, but I don't know why this would be the case. Cupps got an awful lot of minutes and will probably get a good amount next year too. I think he's more of a microwave bench player in D1 - I think he can play that role here. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he could be a very solid player as a junior or senior. He never should've been counted on to contribute this year but he was because of the roster. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To many swing and misses by the same guys. Since a lot of it was coming from the other board, I'm guessing it was the same sources that said we had Stevens in the bag and Billy Donovan was house shopping in Bloomington. BTB is the wild west. I appreciate Chris sharing info he is hearing, and to his credit he does try to caveat the info he's sharing, but many on that board take it like it's the gospel - speculation is echo'd so much that it eventually becomes perceived as fact....and then conclusions are made based on those false facts. Everything is whipped up into a frenzy over there....and it happens quickly. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
