1 on 1 Player Meetings and Rotation Change
JaybobHoosier replied to ap2345's topic in Indiana Men's Basketball
This is great to hear because it highlights the reality that Archie is officially done with the BS. Hope this is the case. You could see how good this team could be when they play with effort and intensity. Our defense went crazy on NW and dominated. I really hope the passion and intensity is there at all times, because without it I worry about this team making the tournament. I wonder if Archie will have Devonte coming off the bench, which I think is the right move and it sends a message he is done with the lack of effort. While Phinisee and Armaan might not be consistent right now, but they bring a toughness to the team to build that momentum. We will see! Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app -

I can’t watch and this game really worried me. Seeing the score is very discouraging and inexcusable. Just don’t get it Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners -

Last I saw IU was up 10 and now I see them down at half. What happened? Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners -

Another plugged in person on Twitter mentioned twice things for entering the transfer portal: possibly leaving for the NFL and potential position change if he were to come back. Who knows if that’s true, but just all around puzzling. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

Anyone know why? Seems shocking to me, but I have no inside info on this. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

I thought Al was selected by the staff, but Devonte was selected by the players. Could be wrong though. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

If it’s a close game that we win and we struggle with the same stuff, this place will be a mess as well (rightfully so for the most part). I’m finding it better to not watch games live, but I actually can’t watch because of youth at church at the same time. Wish our Hoosiers nothing but the best and getting back to playing extremely well! Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app -
Great news, and I’m already excited for next season. A lot of potential to build upon. Welcome back Whop! Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners

Here’s my quick take: I’m frustrated has heck right now with the program, Archie, players, etc. I was a huge Archie supporter, even during the horrible stretch of losses last season. However, I’m quickly being turned off of our men’s basketball program that we all love so much with how things are trending. Do I think he needs to be fired, no, but missing the tournament this year will be a nail in the coffin. There is no excuse for missing the tournament this season. However, I’m also trying to give Coach Miller some benefit of the doubt because our upperclassmen just aren’t cutting it for this team. Now, I do believe Archie’s system is slightly flawed and when you have these juniors and seniors on the roster it gets really exposed. Archie’s defense mindset first is great, but if all you want are defensive players that can really hurt your offense. This team needs shooters and playmakers, but does recruiting to defense and certain attributes for this type of ball kill any potential for a good offense? You have to find balance to some degree, and this team has none. I do understand some of our best players have been injured and that does really hamper a team, but this is now year 2 of that. Is this a player issue, training issue, or what? At the end of the day, Archie will be here a guaranteed 4th year and most likely 5th. I’ve come to terms with that and while I have quite a bit of pessimism going forward, I want nothing more than this team to turn it around. I don’t agree with cutting ties now or after this year, because I do believe there is reason for hope in the midst of my pessimism. I feel like I represent a lot of Hoosier Nation right now, but maybe I’m wrong. I’m mad and frustrated, but believe Archie deserves a little longer. I want nothing more than for Archie to be the guy and make us a consistent B1G and NCAA Tourny contender (not just barely in, I mean a good contender) like this program can be capable of.

For me, I think Coach Miller needs to send a message to his players. While CAM needs his own coaching improvements, this team needs a major shakeup. Brunk TJD Anderson Franklin Phinisee I think a message must be sent to our upperclassmen to shape up or move over. I didn’t watch the Maryland game, but play the younger guys (minus Brunk) to see if that helps spark Al, Green, and Smith. Plus, I like Green coming off the bench. Get a feel for the game and go attack. Just difficult because we are seeing a struggling team with players not playing to their roles or abilities. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners

Wish the team good luck, won’t be able to watch (probably for the best). Hope the team will be healthy and start playing to it’s capabilities! Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners
