Brunk with 12 pts. and 8 reb. and 1 TO.   He's made some defensive mistakes, but I don't think you can say he's not getting it done.

4 assists as well.  Not sure the point of OP asking why he was on the court.

Not quite Vic. But pretty damn close.

IU was an 11 point favorite.  Probably quite a few IU bettors happy with Durham not running the clock out.

Don’t agree with you this time sir. I don’t think he’s been good at all. And Tech is so small that Archie could have created post matchups through TJD while also creating more space to drive by playing smaller.

Good win. 2nd half was frustrating. Green was great 1st half ... he might have forgotten to play with himself the 2nd half. A lot to gain from this game. TJD was great.

Archie frustrated in post game, flustered.

[WayneFleekHoosier 46,723]

I’m not sure who should be getting some of Franklins minutes, but he doesn’t add much right besides being fundamentally sound. So apparently that’s enough to get minutes over other guys. Assuming a healthy Phin takes many of those minutes.

Love it here! Always a line of those to pick apart a W like the sky was falling!

[IUc2016 6,915]

Second half showed why we need rob phinisee. Too many turnovers and too many times they drove right by our guards.

I think he is really good defensively. Really consistent at that end.

I think he’s one of those freshmen that needs minutes in these early games so he’s ready by the end of the season. When he gets the ball I don’t think he’s going to do something dumb. He’s been really solid on defense too.

I think getting Phinisee back healthy and in condition will solve a lot of the problems we had in the second half. Green is not in game shape yet either and that showed some also as the game went. The minutes that Franklin is getting now will pay off down the road this season. All in all, I feel much better than I did last year at this time.

May...be...true. But the thing I absolutely love is those fundamentals drew 3 charging fouls tonight.

[Brass Cannon 24,064]

Smith had a terrible game and we didn’t have Rob so overall I’m ok with this result. Still concerned that we don’t seem to ever really step on an opponents throat. Wonder if that will be more doable when the bench shortens

Smith actually had a good game. They just focused in on him defensively and he didn’t force anything.

Worded poorly but a poor game by his current standards. 

[Hoosier Guy 7,472]

I like the result

[Uspshoosier 44,195]

Indiana (6-0) has entered the KenPom top 25 after tonight's victory. The Hoosiers are 23rd in offensive efficiency and 47th in defensive efficiency.

Most important stat: Indiana is #1 in the country in Free Throw Rate, and the Hoosiers are making 75.1% of their free throws.
