don't need star ranking Joe plays for Iowa so he can't be any good or NBA quality.

Now yore getting it.
MSU keeps getting mentioned as a possible destination for those 2... but as of right now we don't have the space. Even if Ward leaves, we still don't have space for both of them.
If they split them up, Izzo was pretty close to Joey and his dad before he committed to Marquette.
He’d be a good 1 year stretch 4 for us, while Bingham gets bulked up more
Didn’t work the first time. I’d be shocked if they came here. Thrilled but shocked. They are perfect fits here. Should have been here from the start but Bo fvcked us on that one. Not getting any hope up here.
Damn you, I was about to post something. Bruno gone
, Cowan should be back or he’s off to Europe.

Bruno isn't surprising. You knew that was coming. Even Gil knew that. Cowan is a bit of a surprise. Might just be pulling a Joe Wieskamp. Going for the free cookies and gatorade.
He’s going to get evaluated to see what he needs to work on. I don’t think he has a future in the NBA either way.
Go ahead and release Malik Hall from his LOI and that should clear the requisite space.
If you are MSU, why would you spend two schollies on the Hausers? Sam isn't gonna be a contributor for them.
this is good for players that think they are good enough to go pro. they can go and hear it from the Pro scouts themselves vs outsiders telling them how great they are.
This kid is going to be really good. Needs to start eating about 10,000 calories a day though.
Not sure we are actually all that interested, other than the history of heavily recruiting Joey before he chose Marquette.
Hopefully not as douchey as another gangly 7’+ guy B1G fans are familiar with.
question for Indiana or Purdue fans on G Polk out of the La Lumiere School
just how good or bad is he?
just how good or bad is he?
In order for me to tell you how good or bad he’ll be ranked, I need to know his race and whether or not he’s committed to Iowa. Please advise.
Jeff Goodman's Top 25:
https://watchstadium.com/news/prese...19-20-college-basketball-rankings-04-08-2019/
1. MICHIGAN STATE: This one is largely dependent on what happens with Cassius Winston, who will likely return to East Lansing for his senior campaign. Nick Ward is a complete toss-up. Tom Izzo will bring back other pieces – Joshua Langford, Xavier Tillman and Aaron Henry to name a few – and a couple of heralded recruits in Rocket Watts and Malik Hall.
12. MICHIGAN: There are question marks – all three of Charles Matthews, Iggy Brazdeikis and Jordan Poole could leave Ann Arbor. But if one of the three return, the Wolverines are a top-25 team. If two come back to a team that will have Zavier Simpson, Jon Teske, Isaiah Livers and Eli Brooks – then the Wolverines should be in the mix for a top 5 or 10 spot.
13. MARYLAND: Bruno Fernando is probably gone but the good news is that Jalen Smith will return. The Terps will also bring back Anthony Cowan and Darryl Morsell, as well as a talented sophomore group that includes Eric Ayala, Aaron Wiggins, Serrel Smith Jr. and Ricky Lindo.
16. OHIO STATE: It’s the combo of the Chris Holtmann factor and also the influx of talent with a strong freshman class that includes three top-50 players – point guard DJ Carton and forwards Alonzo Gaffney and EJ Liddell – to go along with a solid returning core that has big man Kaleb Wesson.
24. PURDUE: I understand that Carsen Edwards is gone but this ranking is as much about Matt Painter than anything else. The Boilermakers will return Matt Haarms, Trevion Williams and Aaron Wheeler up front, along with Nojel Eastern at the point. That, along with Painter, is enough.

Sounds like Brunk to IU will be official sooner rather than later.
On the guard front who the hell knows. They do not seem to be too deep on any grad transfers at this time and with Beverly heading to Miami and Lester not all that likely might see Indiana reach for the kid from Ben Davis.

Yea he ranked Indiana purely because of their name.
take a closer look. Holtman really 1 good year and a so so year the next. Carson leaving and yet they are a top 25 team because of Painter. Carson is why they won the games they did.
why should Indiana be ranked? Archie seat is getting warmer, not hot yet but give it another year like last year and the seat goes from warm to hot.
You should tell that to some Purdue fans who said Purdue was winning despite Carsen Edwards, like in the following wins:
Opponent - Carsen's shooting
Maryland - 4-15
IU - 6-18
MSU - 4-19
Minnesota - 6-20
@IU - 4-24
@ Nebraska - 3-16
@Northwestern - 6-18
ODU (NCAA tournament) - 7-23
That's 8 wins and Carsen went a combined 40-153 from the floor for a cool 26.1%. The dude had back issues and Purdue needed guys like Eastern and Haarms to come up big or no way we win our 24th Big Ten title.
you would not have made thre NCAAT if he had left last year, but god how pathetic are you Carson's season stats
35.4 mpg 23 ppg, next was Cline @12 ppg, 3.6 rpg, 2nd on the team in assist @ 2.9 apg, led the team in steals @1.3 spg, yeah just like a Purdue fan to trash your best player.
