Two things don't live long: dogs that chase cars and teams that can't make free throws.

@AssemblyCall: Interesting statistical note, but I don't know exactly what to make of it:

Archie Miller's first team at Dayton had the #2 FT% in the country (77.7%). After that, his Dayton teams ranked 103rd, 247th, 208th, 293rd, and 215th.

And now his first Indiana team is 323rd. #iubb

We really are in a danger zone here. Can’t be this bad for this long and expect the old days to return.

Maybe we are finding out its too late. Unless recruiting goes gray, and I thought it would, but it's not, we may not ever be elite again.

Have to be really good and really lucky to win consistently with inferior, home grown, aged talent.

It's possible, no doubt, but it's a riskier longer road.

Sadly it feels like creans first few years all over again. No the record isn't as bad but it appears is not going to be a two year fix. So frustrating

Green

Rojo

McRoberts

Smith

Morgan

 

That needs to be the line-up the rest of the year. Bring Josh and Al off the bench for spotty minutes. Freddie to give Morgan / Smith a break. Moore must not be ready for the big time yet. Once Collin returns I'd have an 8 man rotation. 

That would've been the lineup about 20 games ago.

We have got 5* under every head coach at IU in spite of us not being elite. I highly doubt he goes past 2019 without a 5*. It’s almost difficult to be here and not get 5* talent within a couple of years. Relationships with AAU in this state is critical. Those relationships are better now. A big reason Crean is gone. He couldn’t go to an Indiana Elite game and say he was getting who he wanted at the end. I will go out on a limb and say that is already over.
