Different system and team. It's why I always twitch a bit when someone says X player wouldn't do well here because they aren't having a great season at Y team.

Roles, systems all play a part but a talented player is still a talented player. Gillis is a talented player.

But do you twitch when they say X player would do well here because they are having a great season at Y team?!

Lmao.

What’s your reasoning for Ole Miss in top 25? They have exactly the same amount of top 25 wins as IU football and lost to the only ranked teams they have played.

MB Addition for 2025

B
Was announced that we've added a rising junior MB Dior Charles from Wake Forest. A really good pick up! She led the Deacs in blocks with 133 this past season and ranked 6th in the ACC with 1.23 bps. She is also an offensive threat - tallying 12 kills against Georgia Tech who was really good this year. She will help offset the loss of Colvin. So we lost 4 transfers and 1 to graduation and added 5 from the portal. 3 MBs and 2 OH. I really think Shondell did a good job at reloading. Will we be better next year. Most likely not - but we will still be a T25 team IMO.

I think people are really underestimating how much development we are likely to see from Harris, Cox and Burgess. All three are trending favorably and another season working with Braden will really help them.

Do we need another player or two? Perhaps. But it's far from a given. Personally, I'd like to see a wing who can break people down as that's the most pressing need. I think we can cover the 4/5 with TKR/Berg/Jacobsen/Heide/Burgess. If someone in that group leaves, obviously you need to add a body.

This is the same thing we heard about Heide and Colvin coming into this year. Unfortunately, they're incredibly inconsistent and sometimes disappear completely.
The hope is that guys develop and improve on their weaknesses, but it's definitely not a guarantee.
2, potentially 3 players (not necessarily all starters) from the portal and Painter can build a FF team.

Is that really what you took from that exchange?

You stated that you can’t include Gonzaga because they have four losses. Fine. I completely disagree but you can rank however you want. What I don’t understand is how you then include SDSU with three losses when Gonzaga is objectively better than SDSU by every measure in addition to beating them head to head.
Click to expand...
"Objectively." Gonzaga just hasn't been very impressive to me. Not that SDSU has been super impressive. Gonzaga has wins over SDSU, Baylor(who I don't care for this year), Arizona State and Indiana. Then have 8 wins over bad teams who are Q3 and worse. SDSU has wins over Houston, Boise State on the road, UC San Diego and Creighton(who I don't really like this year. So yea, Gonzaga has the head to head but I don't consider that the end all be all when I feel I'm splitting hairs. Gonzaga continues to beat the crap out of that poop conference and they'll find their way back.

I hope they stay as well, but if Painter decides to hit the portal, those are the two positions of need. The comparisons with Newman are spot on. Flashes of brilliance followed by long stretches of 'meh'.
Click to expand...
Comparions with Newman are not spot on. Newman had at least 1 boneheaded play each game. He might produce at times but he was always going to throw the ball to the other team for a breakaway layup or similar play. Neither of the new guys are doing that much, they just don't show up enough at this point.
