I think Anderson would be a nice target. He didn’t pan out at Iu but he he’s got the skill. We recruited him out of high school till he blew up. I was surprised he picked iu though. He’s got the length whit likes. But, he would have to sit out a year. Not a big and not a help right away.

Domestic violence is on the rise due to the nature of this virus. It's a trick by those evil foreigners that unleashed this beast!
My spidey senses are tingling with an oncoming Corona Confrontation.

Who are the "difference-makers" in the MAC that have helped teams win championships in the last 3, 4, 5 years? This question spurs an interesting thought. The MAC used to send the occasional player to the NBA. I wonder how many NBA players, by decade, have MAC backgrounds? Especially in the last few years.

Yeah, about a dozen made it in the last 20 years, only a couple lasting long with more than 80 games.
Kaman, and Wally Szczerbiak made an impression in that time. Including Holmes for one year this year, only 3 averaging double figures.
From the BSU glory decades only two players to the NBA, none from Majerus-Hunsaker.
BG, Central and Eastern with quite a number of draftees over the decades.

Your a straight shooter General and very witty.
It’s all good and I hope we finally win a Championship because in the end you and I would both tear down the Scramble 💡!

He is not the Big we have been promised! In fact after reading the article in the Star Press about our new guard, Whitford sure does not sound like a coach who has another signee waiting in the wings. In fact, it sounds like they are still looking and hoping one falls into our laps. The language in the article definitely sounds like no one is waiting in the wings, that he is still open and looking and waiting. Reflecting on our promise from Hunsaker76: Either Hunsaker76 is NOT totally full of crap and something fell through. Or, Hunsaker76 is NOT totally full of crap and Whitford isn't showing his hand. Or, Hunsaker 76 IS totally full of crap.

And with Whitford could get more 3pfga which he wanted to do more at IU.

Yes, and I also don't see it as these guys "falling into his lap." Most of these guys, Hazen, KJ, Wyndham, etc. they have spent time and effort recruiting, and just like us, they're asking how many MAC players are there in the NBA? How many people are coming to the games? What kind of notoriety will I get? And as playing time doesn't pan out, they need to make new basketball decisions and they're more mature and reconnect with teams they liked but that weren't as sexy. I don't think this is a knock on the staff to recapture these players.

Do they ask about playing in the post season?

Do they ask about playing in the post season? Every school tells them they will, but no MAC school can really sell it very hard as a one bid conference, except that with the balance at the top the right player would make any one of 4 or 5 teams a good bet..
For the real difference maker recruit he will get a MAC school to the dance. Add Palombizio to our teams the last 5 years or so where he'd fit well, and we'd have had awfully good chances. Especially this year, but last year or the year before we'd have been up there with Buffalo, year before that, I think we'd beat Akron.
