IUBB @ Penn State - Saturday, 02.24.24 @ Noon on BTN
DChoosier replied to Class of '66 Old Fart's topic in Indiana Men's Basketball
MM is so poor in the open court. He is a good player, for a freshman, but his family/friends and him are crazy if they think he will be in the NBA next year. He needs to stay in college wether it’s at IU or somewhere else. -
At least the NBA has 2,3,4,5 year contracts. In. CBB EVERYONE is a potential “one and done” at their school (ie they can go to the NBA or transfer to another school). I can’t imagine what a pain in the @$$ it would be to be a college coach these days but I guess that it’s somewhat offset since you receive 2-15 million for sucking and getting fired.

But that might lead to the disappearance of the creepy before and after photos.

2023-24 Prediction League - Game 27 at Penn St Sat 2/24/24 Noon BTN
DChoosier replied to LIHoosier's topic in Indiana Men's Basketball
I have zero confidence but to maintain my bad streak I’ll go IU - 73 PSU - 68 -
The challenge/issue is that the HOME games against PSU, NW and Nebraska were all winnable but we went 0-3. The ship isn’t sinking, it’s already sunk.

With zero inside info I could see “those that decide” moving from another year to mercifully ending things if we come close to losing out. A couple of weeks ago I was dumb enough to think we would get at least 3-4 more wins but didn’t see us losing to all three (AT HOME) of Northwestern, PSU and, winless in the conference when on the road, Nebraska. Just a horrifying skid.

It is hard to get to a Final Four and there is more parity but we have a dream (some would say ridiculous fantasy) to once again be a legitimate blue blood. In spite of the 64 team expansion, since ‘84, in that timeframe UCONN has won 5 nattys, Duke 5, UNC 4, Kansas 3, Nova 3 and UK 3. The top tier programs have continued to win a disproportionate percentage of the championships. Would be fun to be back in those conversations.

I thought Armond moving his head was the highlight of the game but, upon review of slow motion video, it turns out that his head movement was due to being accidentally bumped by a player. In real time, like you, I thought he actually moved his head on his own but alas…not the case.

My bad. I have always mistakenly thought Ya was an Archie guy.

Agree, the MSU “run” seems to be slowing. Their AP pre-season rank was 4th in the country, he had the core of last years team returning plus a good recruiting class (Booker/Fears/Coen) and here they are at 17-10 while losing at home last night vs Iowa.

I still can’t believe we were able to beat out Incarnate Word for Priller. Quite a coup.

12/21 from the free throw line not to mention missing the front end of a couple of 1 and 1’s. -

We could have won if they had pulled Race, Trace, JHS, Kopp and DJ White out of the stands. -

Sadly that has been the case every single year there has been a BTT. -

I think Galloway fouled the guy with his face. -

Classic? I’m guessing rather than classic it will be the same comments (justified) that have already been posted a million times. -

Ware misses 2 FT and then Leal misses the front end of a one and one. Hard to understand. -

Not sure about talent but pretty much every team has more shooters than we do. -

Our offense is bad but we get Cupps wide open for a three and he totally clanks it followed by MM having a wide open three and he shoots an air ball….Just amazing how long it’s been since we have had a good perimeter. -

19 points in 16 minutes doesn’t beat ANYONE. We have clanked 3-4 threes, don’t move etc, etc -

Making shots would be a nice skill to have
