Buzz:

Kasparas Jakucionis is the best player right now and also a natural leader. A tall, 6-5 + w/o shoes PG

Dravyn Gibbs-Lawhorn playing well.

Ty Rodgers flashing a jump shot. Training on something called Noah.

Kylan Boswell doing well with Fletch; struggling on the court.

Tre White stood out earlier

Will Riley and Tomislav Ivisic have yet to report.

Summer buzz is fliud

Even though Brad Underwood prob doesn't even know yet, I will go with:
1) Boswell
2) KJ
3) Riley
4) Ben Humrichous
5) Tomislav I. 

I think DGL will overtake Boswell before the year ends though.

Twin towers!


Tre Donaldson
Roddy Gayle
Nimari Burnett
Danny Wolf
Vlad Goldin

Rubin Jones
Sam Walters
Will Tschetter

One of our freshman guards might get some minutes too but I don’t know which one that will be.

BEST PICKUPS FOR THIS TEAM is the head Coach. Should be around a 18-7 record maybe.

Tre Donaldson ... good pickup here
Roddy Gayle ...Avg B1G player who will end up having to guard the other teams best players...offense will be diminished.
Nimari Burnett ... Glad we never ended up with this guy, overrated, slow, overall unathletic really.
Danny Wolf...BEST player on the team, hands down, will end up having a very/very good year in the B1G.
Vlad Goldin, Another good get, however I don't really see both playing at the same time much with diminished bench talent overall.

Rubin Jones
Sam Walters
Will Tschetter

One of our freshman guards might get some minutes too but I don’t know which one that will be. Guard play is essential ESPECIALLY in the B1G, Fishigan will be average at best in this area imo...we will see, good luck to you.

Sounds as if this will dictate our roster play: Good article about what we can expect. More of the same and then some this year...80 + a game here we come.

He has to be gone

I can’t remember a situation where a starter and key contributor on an Elite 8 team redshirted the next year. Especially since he along with DGL was the only guy returning. But maybe it’s for the best. I love Ty and his tenacity on the boards and on defense but you can’t get by playing 4-on-5 on offense against the better teams. It just sucks because we are losing his rebounding and defense, and this group looks like it’s gonna need all the defense they can get.

Wonder if this has anything to do with Tim Anderson’s departure.

Based on the "7 hr old" On3 article projecting draft, we keep (not counting transfers-out).

Boswell returns
DGL returns
Riley (may return-has the tools, don't see him being a HIGH pick as of now, good reason to come back), rated 20th.
Ivisic Not even on the board, that however could change drastically, his brother is ranked at around 70?
Johnson
White
Rodgers (comes back)
Davis
Jakstys
Booth

Wagler and Lee coming in.

We lose ONLY 7th rated KJ? Ivisic if the play continues will more than likely shoot up the draft board, but even let's say top 30, is that enough to go?

BTW Hawkins (47) is still rated in and around the same area (lower) than he always has been. No stock change really there.

I would bet Riley is gone to the pros and I would be very surprised if Rogers is back next year. I'd also be shocked if we didn't lose at least one of the 4/5s to a greener pastures transfer. Booth or Davis might be Creaned.

Riley I agree on, but not at that ranking. If he climbs then yes no brainer. KJ is gone that is a known imo, and now Ivisic is playing his way into maybe being better than both, so he is gone.

Booth there is no way he gets "creaned" that is a bad look, bad optics with being NBA connected father, don't believe that trigger gets pulled. Davis, maybe so though.

Rodgers is hopeful thinking for me, White (meh) really either way,
