[QUOTE="FatGreg, post: 1214821, member: 562927"] Wow! Unexpected GREAT news! Thorne was a man among boys when healthy last year. There aren't many players in the country that can match up with him from a purely physical standpoint. A frontcourt of Thorne, Mav, Black, Finke, Kipper and possibly DJW is very deep and offers a diverse set of skills. In my opinion, this is probably good for an extra 2-3 wins, which could very well be the difference between making the tournament and missing it again (which could, in turn, be the difference between Groce staying and righting the ship or being shown the door). I'm going to go out on a limb and predict an 11-7 finish in the B1G next year. Hopefully the 2017 class comes together and we get the arrow pointing in the right direction again. #orangekoolaid [/QUOTE]
