With Nevada losing last night Rutger, Michigan St., and Ill all sitting right above that 30 NET. Does Nebraska knockoff Michigan St. at home tonight to keep their streak rolling?

I believe most people on this board would love for him to come back. He's the type of talent that can lead you deep into March. You touched on some of the physical attributes and the midrange game. I believe he's shooting better than anticipated from deep too. His defense is already there. I have a feeling he'll test out athletically better than what we've seen. His game isn't athletically based but it's there. His decision making can get questionable at times but it seems others on this team get really hesitant to shoot and he's stepping up.

This would be quite the win given the circumstances of this game. That was a great cut and pass. What happened to Iowa St.?!

Thank you, didn't even realize they were already behind IU. I was going off of bracketmatrix. 12 Kansas St. - won all games, several very good opponents 11 Iowa St. - lost all 3 of their games 10 Virginia - lost 2/3 with one being Q3 (?) 9 Tennessee - lost 2/3 on road against tourney teams Woah, didn't realize the teams immediately ahead of us absolutely tanked this week.

@Uspshoosier What would IU need to do in their remaining games to "pass" Gonzaga to get on the 3 line? Gonzaga appears to have 2 games remaining with their best case scenario is playing Santa Clara (NET 81) in the semifinal and St. Mary's (NET 7) on a neutral court. Possibility to add another Q2 and Q1 win. IU has two Q2 home games this week then the possibility for multiple Q1 (maybe a Q2) games in the Big 1.o tourney.

JHS going in the first round isn't based solely on one game. Could you imagine teams drafting players based on one game? There would be a lot NBA types fired. JHS was on the radar long before the second purdoodoo game.

FSU down eleventy billion and Hamilton still had 3 timeouts. They really looked like they've just been rolling the ball out in practice all season.

Scoring wasn't my concern with TJD against puke. It was the lack of positioning, soft moves, and conceding ground/position. You could call it competing on every possession. We'll need TJD and Co. firing on all cylinders for a Big 1.o and/or NCAA tourney run.

Ughhh

$5.6 to $8.4 mil guaranteed over 2 years for the 15th pick is still... solid money. There are many other data points that can go into this decision too. Will he have the team around him next season to show off his talents? Will a year of college development provide enough to jump into a top 10 or better pick? Will his stock ever be higher? Will delaying getting to your second contract by a year be worth it?

12 of 14 Big 1.o teams within 5 games with 2 games (for most teams) to go. Live look at the Big 1.o office

Moved up 4 spots to 13th in the coaches poll fwiw

Let's hope his leadership trajectory is slightly different. Sheehey had a role on the 2011-2012 and 2012-2013 team and was exceptional in that role.

No idea the accuracy of this site but here is the 2022 contract salaries. The 15th pick had an $18 million contract. That's... solid money https://boardroom.tv/nba-rookie-contracts-salary-scale-2022-23/

I would have liked to force Iowa to catch the ball over the top or on the other half of the court. Catching the ball and going to your right for a right handed shooter is much easier than the opposite. I have a feeling the staff and team learned from this experience and will be better for it. All of their goals are still attainable. I hate losing and excuses but this might have made the team more hungry for the next few weeks.

We're not a program that will get a talent like JHS at PG every recruiting class. We need to continue to get multiyear PGs that will develop or more experienced PGs through the portal. When a talent like JHS comes along you obviously take him but don't believe relying on a frosh PG every season is a winning formula. It would be interesting to see how this season had played out without XJ being injured. Does JHS continue to facilitate and take over when needed? Does he play and score more off ball with XJ running the show?

I believe it's dependent on the individual and their situation. There are players that need the NBA for whatever reason (money, focus on development over school, coaches, etc.) while others might be able to delay it for a year or they enjoy their current situation. How many rookies actually make an immediate impact? Defining immediate impact as being a rotation player or better.

We're going back to the Super Bowl!! Take care of the ball, compete, and rebound. It would be really nice to see us round out our offense with TJD getting his in the post and us taking and making shots from deep. I want to see a collective stare down of franimal from the student section

I'm confused by what you're saying here. You want JHS to fall later in the first round so he'll be drafted by the Knicks but you want him to stay at IU to develop into a top 5 pick so it forces management to play him?

What is the difference between the 10th and 11th pick?

How much do you think IU/collectives are dishing out in NIL money for JHS? It's nice to dream that IU could match an NBA salary but we're discussing reality here. He wouldn't be close to making the same amount of money at IU as he would as a first round draft pick.

CBB delivering even on days USPS is closed!

I was wondering this strategy in the women's game. 1.5 seconds up 1 with needing to rebound the ball and call a timeout. Just calling the timeout has to take 0.6 seconds right? That leaves you with a catch and shoot situation, at best, on the other end.

Glad I'm "arguing" with myself. There is no backpedaling here. As stated in my original post, JHS is gone to the NBA after this season. He will be drafted in the first round if not the lottery.

Heck of a shot
