If Evan Turner Returns For His Senior Season...

Will Ohio State be the preseason #1?

Evan Turner recently hinted that he hasn't ruled out coming back to Columbus for his senior season. If he does return, I don't see how the Buckeyes won't be atop the polls, considering they return all their starters and will be welcoming one of the top recruiting classes in the nation, led by 6-9 270 pound forward Jared Sullinger.

During the off season someone will show him how much money he is about to bank and he'll change his mind......he should be #1 overall in my opinion. Wall is highly overrated for a #1 pick IMO. Turner will go pro, it's inevitable.

nightcap is correct, turner is a top 3 pick at worst, he's crazy if he comes back to school

I think he's crazy as well if he comes back, and the Buckeyes' recent track-record with retaining lottery picks (Oden, Conley, Cook, Koufas, Mullens) is pretty bad. Also, I think Turner is the #1 overall player in the draft. Wall is good, but nothing close to Turner, IMO.

agree with possible NBA lockout coming you have to get some money in this years draft. Really hoping the Timberwolves can somehow get this guy.

He either comes out this year or He waits to 2012. I think he will absolutely come out this year.

He's coming out this year. They always say that they "are considering coming back". he is the best player in CBB and has much more to offer than Wall.

Purdue if Robbie comes back 100%.....Big Ten could be the conference to watch next season. MSU, OSU, Purdue, and Illinois all should be legitimate. Maybe even the Badgers as well.

Starting 5 next season:

Hummel
Johnson
Moore
Barlow
(recruit or Lewis Jackson)

as much as i hate the buckeyes, they will be number 1 next year IF turner would to come back. He wont be back though skrilla. By the way with Sims gone for Michigan next year and if Harris leaves which he should, then Michigan will be the worst team in the big ten next year without a doubt. Not even joking...going to be tough to watch them next year..lol

turner is gone after this year. he'll find time to graduate and get his degree during nba offseason. no chance he turns down being a top 2 pick.
