So The Indians Hoosiers Are Basically Bishop Sycamore

Some of us saw this years ago with NIL and transfer portal.

So why is nobody else winning like them…?

This really hurts JUCO transfers and kids coming in out of high school.

No it doesn't.

The covid year hurt them. Once you no longer have guys on their 6th natural year or even 7 in some cases

 

[Trust Me]

How many are 5th & 6th year players?

I tried to find a reputable site that has updated rosters, but I couldn't find one.


Edit: (21) total 5th and 6th year guys.

Of the 21, (10) of them are 6th year players, with (11) of them being 5th year seniors.

When the older teams in college bball win it's "well no shyt, they are experienced, they have time together" but in football it's a problem

It does make sense though, in terms of experience and physicality you’d rather have a 23 year old than a 20 year old.

It ain't that simple at all. I'd rather have the team full of 20-year old blue chip prospects than a team with 23-year old 2 and 3-star recruits.

The SEC teams didn't coach a fukking thing and that's why they are all gone home

SEC coaches looking like a bunch of Coach Cals now that they not the only one allowed to pay players.

The 20K and a Hemi days are over

That argument is not applicable to all sec teams. Georgia, Bama maybe LSU....but OU was possibly worst team in OU history, last year. Then this year, playoffs.

I think college basketball is worse.

There are an abundance of professional leagues on this planet where you can make money, yet these dude be 25 yrs old and STILL transferring to another school smh.

Take y'all overgrown asses overseas and let these high school seniors get them scholarships/NIL $$$$.


For football, ain't too many professional leagues period, so I understand

I think having more experienced players is absolutely a factor in Indiana’s success.

It’s silly to point to BYU as an example of it not being relevant.

Just because you can find 1 or 2 other schools who aren’t as successful doing the same thing, doesn’t mean that having older, experienced players isn’t correlated to success

Easier to say from a fan's perspective. But take that bum ass nikka on usc, who's like 27, and will never make an NBA roster, he'd rather play at USC, and make close to if not more than $1M, than to go play in Turkey for $300k. How much does the average overseas player even make?
