I agree, Etomic. I see very little chance that Dunn returns. Does PC have anything coming in that can help them immediately, like Ben Bentil did this season?

According to ESPN, PC has three 4 star recruits (a center, PF and SG) coming in and a post graduate SF coming in. Couldn't tell you how much of an immediate impact they'll be able to make though. Sucks that PC couldn't get an NCAA wins the last two years despite having Cotton/Henton & Dunn/Henton, but at least they got that BET win.

The PG Cartwright played well early might make a jump if he improves his outside shot. They have 4 solid recruits coming in also. They might surprise but they’re probably a year away. They’ll be a tough out 2017 season when that front-court becomes juniors. Fazekas is another big kid who can stretch the floor. Ricky Council is the post grad more of a 2 than a SF can make shots, sneaky athletic. They have some pieces, biggest concern would be PG play

Chukwu needs some serious time in the weight room.

Marcus Foster leaving Kansas State. This is a guy that the staff should consider. Would fill the DSR role and fit the offense perfectly.

Tweets I saw say he was dismissed from team, perhaps not leaving on the best of terms. Trust staff would examine that little issue first. He and Bruce Weber fought all season and Weber tried to blame the losing season on him. If you go to Kansas State message boards (such as goemaw.com), it's very clear the fans side with the players and against Weber. Weber "dismissed" two guys yesterday and a third transferred out...complete disarray within that program and Weber is likely gone after next year. All that said, of course due diligence is necessary, but I see this as similar to Josh Smith where a change of scenery for a very talented player is worth a look.

@therecruitscoop: RT @jonrothstein: Indiana's Stanford Robinson will transfer.
How's his handle? Could be one of the guards the program needs for 2016..

Thanks. I am familiar with him I was more curious about who his actual runner-up was from anyone who knows, not necessary who he lists, a quick google search could figure that out.

And yet, you didn't do the google search.

I do think he could play a Jabril-like role and be a bit of a pitbull. That said, if we're going after shooting guards that might have a little attitude adjustment required, Foster from Kansas State is a more attractive option.

Robinson was arrested for using a fake ID and also suspended a number of games this year for drug use, I believe.
