While it is on the players in a game to put up the shot, that over the course of several seasons is on the staff. that direction and confidence needs to be built in practice and demanded of the players.

Won’t happen but if we can get Reneau and Galloway to come off the beach as 6 & 7th man that is killer. Hate the idea of Reneau and Ballo playing together

Fine, I didn’t reply to it because I don’t want to cheer against any IU player. 50+ made 3’s during regular season? Is that the bet?

Lol, X and Trey could score and create. They weren’t much of a threat from behind the arc. A combo of Reneau and Ballo under the basket is a death sentence if we don’t have knock down 3 point shooters

Drivers/slashers/free throws are very different than 3 point shooting. The later is what we have been missing

That is the definition of cherry picking. You looked at a whole season and wiped out his worst performances. Lol

WE NEED SHOOTERS we were one of the worst 3 point shooting teams in all of college basketball - that neeeds to be addressed and neither additions thus far changes that. That’s it, that’s the point. Maybe you think we can win big being one of the worst 3 point shooting teams in college basketball but stats/history says otherwise

27% from 3 is 27% from 3, it’s not good. maybe he has a big leap from freshmen year to sophomore year, it is possible but a full season from start to finish without cherry-picking says he isn’t a good 3 point shooter. The two additions to the team are talented no doubt but don’t fill the need all of us have been clamoring for and frustrated about. Crimson colored glasses here for sure. when do we fill THE VOID?

Supposedly he is that? 3 level scorer is what I’m reading

It’s not about talent, it’s about assembling the right pieces to play together. Woody has always focused on getting talent vs the right pieces thus why we outkicked every BigTen team in terms of recruiting stars* and yet didn’t make the tourney. unpopular as it may be, Woody is doing it again. As good as Rice is, we are no better shooting the ball than we were before. Add Balo and here we go again. the formula is to have minimally 3 players on the court that can shoot and we are assembling another team full of people that can’t shoot. We’ve added two talented players and neither make us a better shooting team

Woodson was supposed to unite us and instead divided us more than I can ever recall. our administrators is a joke

Too short

Jesus, you said you didn’t say it and I provided your exact posts that shows you did. yes, per your post above, you did flip flop a few times, but you did say those things

Best part of the internet is that what you type doesn’t go away.

You have said so many false things throughout this; Woodson is contractually obligated to be at this event, no he isn’t. He cannot recruit this week, false, 8am on a Sunday when he was at the course the lions share of the day etc etc.

And how did that turn out for us?

It will be because he plays golf and does everything BUT recruit for 50 weeks a year

Correct, but when that is your only plan, it’s a bad one

You continue to stoke the fire with comments like this. He does little to no recruiting all year which forces him to field an entire team in the portal and is mostly focused on raising money and spending money. NIL NiL NiL when there are players committing to better coaches/programs/systems for less NIL

I have not forgotten that we have 0 transfers committed when we need to fill out a team and barely have enough kids to play right now. “0” Other teams are locking in their targets, some doing it while they are still in the tourney. Woody?

Contractually obligated by who? Highly unlikely and yes, when you are known for drinking wine, smoking cigars, playing golf when you should be working and you have barely enough players on roster to not forfeit, it might be a good idea to avoid throwing gas on that fire… but seems he doesn’t care. He needs guards to commit from the portal and right before the portal opens he says he stands behind his belief that the college game is played inside out so I am not surprised he continues to be tone def as well as his supporter

I wasn’t the one you were debating here but want to share my perspective. is it criminal to play golf on a Sunday during a recruiting dead period… no, and for most that would be ok. BUT, when you have half a team for next year, no transfers secured and you are known, true or not to be lazy and more into golfing with your friends than working the job that pays you $4m+ than yes, you are a fool for even allowing that perspective of you to be perpetuated. recruiting dead period just means no contact, he could be showering hours of film and researching players etc during this time

A new forum? The lions share of the fans on this forum are sick and tired of watching IU make dumb move after dumb move, meanwhile our rivals are killing it

Are we going to get to a thousand tonight?

Won’t happen but also not sure why he nor the school he goes to would want that. they are an NIT team, I think most schools are striving for more than that
