Who else is leaving other then Henry?

[bilsu]

I hope nobody leaves. There also are not of players out there that could really help next year and there is a lot of competition for those players.

[MUfan12]

The recruiting for 2016 leads me to think that will be the case.

[WarriorPride68]

If anyone leaves that will really suck.


Edit: Especially if that someone is JJJ. (Which is just the first person who came to mind because for whatever reason he is always surrounded by transfer tumors)

It really was a waste that Heldt and Anim were not redshirted this year. One of the reasons UW has had so much consistent success is that Ryan always tried to redshirt freshmen that were not ready.

Hate these threads.  Statistically speaking, someone is going to leave.  The nature of the college basketball beast, these days.   To whomever may leave, good luck.  Find a good fit.

The only players to redshirt for UW on last year's Final Four team were Gasser due to knee injury and Dukan due to mono.  Koenig, Dekker, Frank, Jackson, Hayes...  None of them redshirted.

UW has not redshirted a significant player "because they were not ready" on either of the last two teams.  All were due to injury or illness.  (IOW, like Duane Wilson)

Or you could decide to call Zak Schowalter "significant."  (I don't.)

Ethan Happ?

Ethan Happ?

He wasn't on either of the Final Four teams.  (He was redshirting.)

I don't have any problems with an occasional redshirt.  Amin would have been a good choice this year.  I just don't think its one of the reasons why UW has had more consistent success.  Over the course of Bo's tenure, they have just redshirted a couple guys who went on to become significant contributors. 

Their success has everything to do with solid, consistent coaching, and a commitment regarding the types of players they want in their program.  Redshirting has had little to do with it.

Quick google search:

Butch - all big ten honorable mention
Berggeren - 2nd team all big ten
Ryan Evans - all big ten honorable mention
Uthoff - left shortly after
Jordan Hill
Happ

Some decent players chose to redshirt. More of a culture thing I guess. MU could utilize it more

So three that ended up being contributors.  One likely contributor.  One TDB.  None on last year's team.  Like I said..."a couple."

Never understood red shirting a McDonald's AA. Most burger boys would never do it.

I hear you. I was being serious, not sarcastic earlier. I thought you meant 2

[Stretchdeltsig]

The rodents red shirt a lot of players.  They also dress up 18-20 players per game.

Butch was very thin at the time.  It would have been a wasted year.

The recruiting for 2016 leads me to think that will be the case.

Why?  You know the number of offers out there because you subscribe the website that it was put on.  For two open spots there are not that many offers out there right now. Pretty focused actually.

[CountryRoads]

Despite the fact that no one is a senior on this team, I still feel there will be significant roster turnover (no pun) next year. Can't see JJ leaving though. That one makes no sense. Think he is poised for a breakout year next year.

[TAMU, Knower of Ball]

I've heard nothing to suggest anyone is leaving. Doesn't mean its not happening though. I would be surprised.

With posts like this, who needs trolls?

If you've got something put it out there, otherwise you're just poking around for a reaction.
