to departures from other teams. Of course incoming freshman, such as MSUs amazing class can make a big difference, but just based on departures, UM is already in the plus column, IF, IF, IF, they haven't hit their ceiling(s).
IU - Beilfeldt, Zeisloft, Ferrell, maybe Troy Williams
MSU - Valentine, Costello, Forbes, maybe Davis but unlikely given the Izzo pull
Maryland - Suleimon, Layman, maybe Stone and Trimble
Purdue - Hill, Hammons, Davis, maybe Haas, maybe Swanigan
Iowa - Clemmons, Gesell, Uthoff, Woodbury
Wisconsin - Nobody unless Nigle Hayes leaves early
OSU - nobody unless someone leaves early
Michigan - given Levert and Albrecht were already "gone", nobody unless someone transfers
Interesting the teams 1-5 are losing a combined 13 starters. Teams 6-8 are losing no starters. Says a lot for experience, and of course that experience needs to be relatively talented.
