The Hoosiers had one of the best transfer portal hauls a year ago, but it didn’t go well. But there were concerns then about the frontcourt, which proved to be true. That shouldn’t be the case, as both Sherrell and Yigitoglu are proven high-major starters.
Who’s also proven as a lead guy is Burton, one of the best scorers in the ACC, and he is set to replace Wilkerson in the backcourt. Lindsay and Mustad provide depth, while Harris could be a breakout candidate after being buried in Duke’s depth chart. The defensive concerns overall do remain, but Indiana’s offense could be good enough to overcome them.Â
