Much is being made on whether Grandison and Hutcherson should/will return.

As much as we are losing from our starters/impact players from this past year, and the fact that Grand would give us some experience with a bunch of youngsters, I feel as is it may be time to move on from him, benefitting both parties. I would much rather get another player to help or even Rodgers playing time as he will be the most ready for B1G from the start.

Hutch has unfortunately been jinxed with injuries and a new place would simply be better imo than having him return yet again...

They both declared for the NBA draft also....?

Size, experience, leadership, 3 point shooting. Who needs that? Launch ‘em! We’re better off without him!

I wouldn't mind seeing Slim Jake back, but I don't see it happening.

Hutcherson had been training on his own.  Again. Fwiw.

Didn't say we we're better without them, just writing is on the wall, and you know if Grand does come back, he WILL give up minutes to Rodgers especially. Give Ty all the minutes, by most accounts he will be more ready to help right away than the others.

I really doubt Grandison comes back given all his older teammates are gone.

As I said, zero excitement level for Dainja. Surprising.

I have modest expectations for Dainja. But even if he’s the second coming of Karl Malone we still desperately need experienced depth pieces.

I'm a little more thnt modest in my expectations.  He can move, and from the high school stuff I saw, he could really use some conditioning.  Considering we have a Fletcher, I'm optimistic this kid could be a player once he's in any kind of shape.  Plus, how do you NOT love the name.

I just think no one knows exactly what we have. He clearly has some game.
We need depth inside even if he is Trayvon Williams out of the gate.

Sounds like it’s a possibility we’re getting Terrance Shannon Jr. tomorrow 🤷🏻‍♂️
