    We win more than 2 games extra, last season, solely with better play calling. Let’s hope he checks that box for us.

    NBA Thread

    I clearly struck a nerve! Haha. I see your point though and I perhaps misspoke when I said the league is moving away from this type of player. I should have said that you are starting to see the nba be more accepting of the older archetype. There are plenty of guys outside of AD, Jokic (who operates in bulk out of the post) and Wemby that fit the more traditional style. Are you asking me to list them all or provide a few small examples? maybe I’m wrong but during Golden State’s run, it seemed like every team was shifting to smaller ball and playing on the perimeter exclusively. Also, I’m not sure you can use Wemby to refute the point. He's as much of an exclusion to any rule as you will have when it comes to player types. He wasn’t the #1 pick bc of his ability to face up and shoot. If that’s the case, then take the kids from Yale or ISU with the #1 pick. He was drafted #1 overall bc there has never been a player, with his size and length, possess the overall skill and athleticism he has. Either way…. Wasn’t trying to be combative. Just stating an opinion.

    NBA Thread

    I’m not sure I agree. They have Clingan as a potential lotto pick. I can’t think of 1 thing he does better than Edey. I’ve heard people say he has quicker feet but I’ve went back and looked at the tape and it’s marginal, at best. The nba is starting to cycle back to having bigger rim protecting bigs that don’t shoot the 3 as well. I can see Edey filling a role and potentially thriving in one if the game returns to more traditional bigs who rebound, defend and get to the line.
  4. We will give it a good run in the first half due to the crowd but will end up getting beat handily. KU : 89 IU: 72
  5. The fact we are arguing between Leal and Gunn just shows how flawed this roster is and really exposes how low our ceiling really is.
  6. I’ll die on this hill. Been saying it for years. Since the Zeller and Oladipo teams. We played our stars less mins than any other team in the country. Why do we constantly get coaches who prefer hockey style lineups. The best college teams have lineups of 7-8 guys max.
  7. College basketball is almost unwatchable due to the amount of whistles. It’s ******* absurd.

    No one lives forever. No one. But with the advances in modern science and Woody’s high level income, it’s not crazy to think that he can live/coach till around 245, maybe 300.

    Trey Galloway being this bad at shooting should be criminalized in this state.

    Woodson is so much better than the last few guys we’ve had. He coached an excellent game tonight.

    Our ball. The ball was resting on his shoulder and Reeds hand pushed through it.

    CJ made a great play and the oop was perfect. Gallo tried to put unnecessary sauce on it. Hes been killing us today.

    Man. I’d choke a panda for CJ Gunn to hit that shot more reliably.

    Galloway has regressed and Gunn pisses me off with his decision making.

    Mods feel free to move this in the right place. I couldn’t find a ticket thread. Im looking for 3 tickets with parking pass for the IU Kansas game. Time for the kiddos to see a big game atmosphere

    (2024) - CG Dylan Harper to Rutgers

    If he does that, he’s definitely going to be trolling us.
  23. Just catching up on this kid. Definitely passes the eye test for me. I’d go as far as saying he would be our starting PG right now. Let’s get this kid. I’m hug on kids who have “that dog” in them. He checks that box.

    Maryland vs Indiana - Game Thread, Fri., 12/1 @ 7 BTN

    I cannot stand Woodson’s sub patterns and lineups that he leaves out there. Makes no sense to me. Guess that’s why I’m not the coach.
