2. Yogi Ferrell – Junior – Indiana Hoosiers

6’0″ is a generous height for the lead man in Indiana, but his heart and effort alone makes up for his small stature. He has a history of poor shot selection. This can possibly be attributed to the lack of talent on the Indiana roster last year, resulting in fewer passes to open teammates. He height could be a negative, but many guards his size have had success on the big stage.

He was fourth in scoring and in the top 10 in assists. This shows he has the ability to carry a team and to post huge stat lines. Yogi is now a junior and more experienced, so expect a better arsenal of shots and decision making, with fewer missed three point attempts.
