Originally posted by Hannibal View PostI can't imagine Nunez staying. If Brooks can earn his degree before next year, maybe he leaves too for playing time? Castleton doesn't appear to have much potential for minutes and Bajema already isn't getting any for some reason. Lots of transfer candidates on the roster. Hopefully, we'll keep everyone that we need.
By the way, I don't think this has been mentioned but Brandon Wade joined the team and will be a preferred walk-on next season. He's a PG who graduated from Skyline, was all-state, and played at Duquesne his Freshman year. With such a packed roster, I doubt he'll get much run but I would've thought the same about CJ Lee, David Merritt, and Andrew Dakich. I think he's a good emergency guy to have around and, at the very least, a good practice player.
I went to HS with his dad Keith, who was a star at Pioneer and a 4-year starter for Toledo back in the day. I didn't really know him well back then but hung out with him some when I was back in A2 in 2010-11, due to a mutual friend. Anyway, I've got a little rooting interest in Brandon.

He gone.
Speaking of Ibi Watson. He is a decent role player on Dayton right now. Dayton is in line to get a 2 seed.
Makes paying attention to Dayton more interesting come tourney time.

I wouldn't toss in the towel on Howard yet. He had a mixed bag of a season this year using Beilein's kids, and he has no control over those who decide to go hoop it up in the NBA. Some think they're ready when they're really not. (see Iggy) ..
The kids who are committed are not too bad. I don't see a NC in their immediate future, but they'll be in the top five of the Big Ten. Its hard to win NC's when so many kids bail out early for the NBA, but it could happen.
I think we're going to be in a wait-and-see mode with Howard for at least a couple more seasons."The stockings were hung by the chimney with care, .. I'd worn them for weeks, and they needed the air"

There's also a small chance they get Greg Brown, though Texas appears to be a near-lock.

Beilein could actually coach on gamenight. His players consistently outperformed whatever their stupid star rating was.
Juwan isn't a good coach,at least not yet. He needs home runs. At this rate he's going to nosedive into the B1G basement and we'll see how his recruiting goes then...
He could be out of a job in a year.Last edited by Kstat; April 14, 2020, 11:14 AM.
