Oso planning to go pro
TAMUI do know, Newsie is right on you knowing ball.
I love the frontcourt but a lot of unknowns in the backcourt. Cain and Elliott both need to add plenty of muscle and work on skill development. Cheatham and Anim are also unknowns at this point. Stay healthy Markus!I could see Eke doing a sophomore redshirt if there are no transfers. With Morrow sitting out this year and Froling ineligible until 2nd semester, we need Eke this year. But then the next year we'd have Froling, Morrow, John, and Heldt as bigs, plus both Hausers can play the 4. That would balance the classes a bit too.Rocket Watts is my top wish for 2019. Another recruiting showdown between Wojo and Izzo. Wojo leads 3-2 but he's only won one of the three battles over Michigan natives.Next wish for 2019 would be a SG. Chris Carrawell's son will be one to watch; MU reportedly showing interest along with a few other high majors.
Would he get to be a "walk on" without paying a penny since his father is an MU employee? I believe that's how Doug McDermott was a "walk on" that won the NPOY.
I believe Doug only walked on for his senior season. The first three were scholarship years.
Interesting. Is there a rule against a student getting free tuition as the son/daughter of a university employee if they are on an athletics team? I know for "common" students they get free tuition.
I also wouldn't be surprised at this point if Bailey never steps foot on campus and his spot is filled with another guard.
Why do some people keep saying this? Bailey is absolutely coming to MU.
We'll see but I think Joey will be the first guy off the bench for a very good team as a freshmen.StartersMarkusHaanieSammyMorrowFrolingBenchJoeyHeldtCainAnimJohnElliottEkeBaileyThat's an insane amount of depth. Gonna be hard to keep everyone happy with their minutes. But thats a great problem to have. Assuming this is the roster at the start of the season (big assumption) maybe redshirt Bailey to get him back in shape?
I would take the Rick SLU program right now.
We have plenty of guards. Our guards just have size now. Guards - Markus, Haanif, Sam, Anim, Elliot, Cain and BaileyForwards - Morrow, Joey, JohnCenters - Froling, Heldt, EkeSeveral of the guards can and will play SF, but they can also play off guard. A little thin on PGs, but I expect Markus to play 35 MPG his junior and senior season. Elliot can fill in at lead guard.
That's what we would call switchables, ai'na? Forwards that can play guards, guards that can play forwards. Just guys that can pass, dribble, and shoot.
