Message: [QUOTE="Dillon77, post: 4539690, member: 6620"] You asked me what I based my thought on. ??? I wrote that the #2 Team in the country is returning 5 of its top 6 players; all of whom are proven B1G veterans at this point in the season. The Hoosiers will lose exactly 12% of the minutes played and points scored when Grace Berger and Alyssa Geary walk out the door. In other words, 88% of the team's minutes and people that produced points are returning. [USER=10709]@cancontent[/USER] did an excellent job in her post looking at possible competitors, but let me cite a few more: [LIST] [*]Centers. McKenzie Holmes, to me, is the best center in the B1G this year. Monika Czinano and Emily Kiser are done after this year. Maryland really doesn't have a center, per se. Marked advantage to the Hoosiers. [*]Maryland is losing Diamond Miller and Abby Meyers. Don't get me wrong, I like Sellars but how much does she benefit playing alongside those two? And how will she do when she's the focus of the opposition's defensive focus? Will Briggs step up? Does Brinae Alexander come back? And, with all due respect, Maryland always has some goings-comings. What will happen this year? [/LIST] The main point is that I simply can't see how Indiana and mediocre will be in the same sentence next season. Maybe after that, but not in 2023-24. Let me ask you a question: why are you not impressed with Indiana's prospects in 2023-24? [/QUOTE]
