Priller. Other than him nobody is an alpha dog that knows their role. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

First post, but can Devonte Green and De'Ron Davis please get more minutes!!! Thank you. Go Hoosiers

I think our all around best player is Morgan.

DG needs to start over Newkirk. He does all the little things and i love his midrange game. This kid is gonna be a Frank Mason type kid his junior and senior years. Sent from my LGLS676 using BtownBanners mobile app

There's a lot of hand wringing over offense on this board, and I'm not claiming to love our half court offense, but watching a lot of college basketball over the last couple weeks has made me want a new coach even more, but I think the focus on offense is almost misguided. Could of half court offense be better? Absolutely! But we're not really terrible. But, I watch a game like Butler vs. Xavier and I see both half-court offenses looking pretty similar to ours, even with turnovers (IU's problem is ridiculous unforced turnovers) , the difference is the defense turnovers. Both coaches use pressure and defensive adjustments to impact the game. I left the game thinking either coach would make our current team vastly better than it is.

The freshman want it more than the upperclassmen

Husband had to make a trip to the bathroom and Hoosiers take the lead. Should I make him stay in there? Whatever it takes!

At this point I don't know why he isn't get most of Bryant's minutes. He's smarter and just has a better feel for the game. It's glaringly obvious

He's an egomaniac, but he does know basketball: Dan Dakich ‏@dandakich T. Bryant and IU can't possibly be thinking he's helping his draft stock by playing outside so much

Butler was down 8 or so at halftime and came back strong in the second half. Down the stretch Butler hit I think 10 straight free throws but Xavier hit 6 or 8 straight themselves. Have never seen a finish like that. X down 1 would foul Butler who would make 2 to put them up 3 then Butler would foul X and not let them take a three. Both teams perfect from the line down the stretch - that was cool to see.

I can see people are excited for this game seeing as this thread was created the minute the game started......let's get a W if not I'm never coming back here Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners

Thank you, I confess I've been following along here and the previous boards for years now

Based on this game I'd say start green over newkirk. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners

Gosh just watch Devonte! He just knows what's going on when he's it on the court. We need more of him.

Rutgers -10 TOs IU - 1 TO That's the difference.

Davis is the lone bright spot thus far. But he'll be taken out soon.

Is Glass willing to accept an invite to the CBI this year?

Watched Westtown Vs Hillcrest prep. Westtown- Randolph, Reddish, Forrester, Bamba Hillcrest- Ayton, Stevenson, Hollins. Forrester- skinny. Good hustler. Not overly athletic. Played big minutes. Smart/Passer. Fumbled ball several times. Didn't have a good game. Stevenson-slasher type. Athletic. College size. Hollins- known for defense. Hit some jumpers. Couple 3's. Terrible backcourt violation. Reddish looked very good. Ayton was great. Versatile. (Randolph) Arizona getting 2 great players. Bamba-super skinny. Great shot blocker. Shareef O'Neal----Shaquille interviewed. Mentioned UK, LSU, Arizona. Randolph, Ayton, Bamba, and Reddish stood out clearly. Sent from my iPad using BtownBanners

I'm going to add onto this: something I've been seeing here and on other boards is the statement "you can't fire him a year after winning the Big Ten. Who would want to come here under those circumstances?" Answer: lots of coaches. Lots. This mindset is what nearly two decades of irrelevancy/mediocrity does to a fanbase, and it pisses me off. Successful coaches don't back down from a challenge. They don't care how demanding the fans are. They don't care who they're following. They just do two things: Recruit and win games. Kentucky fired Billy Gillespie for missing the tournament and being average the year before that. It didn't stop Calipari from going there. UCLA fired Ben Howland two weeks (two weeks!) after winning the Pac-12. Someone must have forgotten to tell Steve Alford. When our season ends, Glass is going to evaluate where we are, and knowing he's had to deal with this in 2014, 2015 and probably again this spring, he'll ask himself if he feels there's a good chance he'll be going through it again in 2018. A quick glance at our incoming class, possible NBA departures and returning squad will give him his answer, and he'll pull the trigger. He doesn't need to see any more.
