Man just brutal
Yeesh. I don’t care if he plays for Ohio State or Concordia-Nebraska, as someone with a back issue, I really hope this alleviates his pain/physical problem.
With the schedule out, has anyone pinpointed the top 5 most likely Northwestern double-digit losing steaks yet?
Just draw a circle around the Big Ten schedule and you’ve found it.
- Kofi
- Dickinson
- TJD
- Jaden Ivy
- Trevion Williams
- Kofi
- Dickinson
- Jackson-Davis
- Liddell
- Ivey
Plus one for reference to old things an old guy can relate to. The Lakes were my jam at that stage in world history. Used to go to a biker bar in Somerville, MA to watch them engage with the Celtics. They tolerated my (then) very young behind.
- Dickinson
- Liddell
- Kofi
- Ivey
- Curbelo
- Akins - I think someone from State has to be dynamic with the ball this year and dont believe in Walker or Hoggard to provide a multidimensional role that Akins is capable of. Also, I hate that this de facto says that Akins is the best freshman in the league
Akins at No. 6 in the Big Ten?!?!!
Yep… definitely a hot take. I just think that his skill set is what is going to unlock what MSU has for roster composition.
Although 6 is definitely too generous, I thought it would be fun to see the reactions. Also after the top 3 or 4 guys, the rest of the “best players in the league” evaluation is a bit of a crapshoot. I dont love TJD nor Trevion either
This is my same guess at the top 5. Trevion and Curbelo at 6 and 7
What about Joey Hauser? Or Geo Baker?
I think you guys have captured the likely top 5 in some order and it is totally on brand for the B10 to have 4-5 centers in the top five. Could be a weird season with so many questions at PG trying to get the ball to these centers.
Here’s a question - how many Michigan players will be in the top 25? Hunter obviously. Eli always gets left off these lists. Jones probably sneaks in the back end. Houstan probably?
Akins can take that role and still not be the 6h best player in the league. You’re putting him above Curbelo and Ivey. If he’s not the best freshman in the league than he’s not the 6th best player
Unless this was just to say you’re high on Akins
- Hoggard
- Kofi
- TJD
- Liddell
- Ivey
Lol. Not sure what the argument is from the Indiana end. Dickinson was straight-up better than TJD last year and still has a sophomore jump to make.
Perhaps the argument is amnesia…
