I will be enjoyable to watch this season where we at least have the talent to match up with most of the competition. I am not sure how the maturity of Rivers can offset the inexperience of our freshmen. The tournament in Puerto Rico should help this team to grow up a little faster. Go Hoosiers!

If it reduces his PT is not a good idea. He is a pesky disruptive defender and our team last year was awful defensively.

Don't think so . PU and IL also have legit centers forcing TP on the floor. This means a lineup that pits Elston and Capo against Hummel/Roe and perhaps Capo as a replacement for TP.

Rivers
VJ3
Creek
Elston
Wateford….

Maybe because basketball is such a different situation than football. But I think in Bawa's case it might make a tremendous amount of sense. An extra year would no doubt be a huge benefit.
