Possible

PG- Dumes/ Jones
SG- Crawford/ Roth
SF- McGee/ Williams
PF- Negudu/ Pritchard
C- Taber/ Jobe

I really look for alot from N. Williams, he seems like a solid player. I am still uncertain about Pritchard, I have never seen any tape of him.

He doesn't move well and can't/doesn't shoot. All teams had to do was double off him. Maybe if he sheds some baby fat, tones up, and gets a knee brace that fits...I maybe ok with seeing him on the floor on a regular basis. Right now I'll go with the blind pick of Pritchard and McGee. Maybe/hopefully I'm wrong. Taber is fine if all you need is a screener and he's matched up with someone with a little ability as he has.

I'm sure Tom Crean will do all he can to get him and with all that factors surrounding IU that would interest Negedu (playd AUU for elite, Jobe is his friend, had interest in IU anyhow) we are right up there with Memphis.<br><br>As for Sutton, I think signing Jobe eased the pain a bit on that. Jobe and Sutton are both projects. Jobe is a two year deal.........and probably a better choice for a "quick fix" to the big man problem we have for next year. Sutton would be a nice addition and would probably pan out to be a solid rotating center by the time he was a Junior, but if we don't get him that leaves us scholarships for the future. We can get him now...or we can get one of the best center in the country who isn't a project a few years down the road. <br><br>I have faith in Tom Crean. I'm happy with the fact that players aren't running from IU due to the recent problems surrounding the program. If we are competeing with Memphis (Negedu) and beating Duke out on players (Hulls) I would say IU and Tom Crean have a great future together. Having scholarships for the future could bring us the nations best as Crean proves he's shaping the program the way he invisions it.
