Breakdown: To this point, the Central part of the state in 2021 has yet to really develop. There are a number of players that will likely come of age here quite soon, as soon as July. However, this is just one of those years where more of the talent resides outside of Indiana.
One thing to look at here is the guard positions. A bunch of talent at those spots on the floor from Pierce Thomas, Gus Etchison, Ronald Johnson, and many others. Even down the list, Really like the look of Aidan Booher and Vinny Buccilla as guys that will be really good by the time they are seniors.
Size is the overall concern here. Not much of any outside of D.J. Hughes and Jacob Moynihan up top. Wings are also lackluster currently with not many options. Will be interested to see which players will be added to this list post-July and if that will put guys in a spot to help with the depth.
