Imagine this same exact IU team without Yogi on the floor.

Next year (TA & TJL) force opponents to guard 5 guys on the defensive end, not to mention 2 PGs who can get to the rack and finish and kick to MH, KN and JCL spotting up.

It's 2 completely different teams.

Plus rebounding, and also guys actually playing their natural positions.

Yogi is feelling it. Been watching him since 5th grade.....he is playing really well this last 5 weeks.

No one knows what TA will look like after two catastrophic injuries. TJL is a 3 star recruit, and the odds are not good that he will be ready to meaningfully contribute

I know it has been a while since I have seen TA play, but I don't recall thinking he was Yogi 2.0. It looks like TJL is going to turn into a 5 star just like all the other Freshman that come to Illinois. In the end, we will still be popping the ball back out for 3's and jump shots.
