    Devonte should be restricted to 3 dribbles per touch! He becomes a black hole when he dribbles more than 3, and so far no points per possession this game! Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners

    Style over substance

    If you look at the logo at the bottom of the tweets, it’s says CBC or Celebrate Black Culture, so I think these are only a temporary jersey. Maybe for the whole month of February or just one game, idk. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners

    So some concerns I’m having...

    I stated a chance to establish a "winning culture." The administration has mishandled everything/screwed the pooch, however you want to say it, since they canned Knight and yes Sampson screwed himself. That was my point, not really that a coach has or has not had a chance, hence the sentence started with the university not coaches. Which is why I followed with a statement that Crean was here too long. Now we are faced with getting rid of a culture that preached no defense, got to play faster, shotgun recruiting methods, and no player accountability. As for Davis, he was interim coach for the 2000 season and officially hired as head coach March 21, 2001. He resigned in Feb 2006 effective end of season as he was feeling the hot seat constantly from the previous season.

    And that is an issue that needs to be addressed when that time comes, not now. So, IMO, everyone who is willing to at least allow CAM to get through next season, needs to step back from the ledge, vent in the game threads about the teams issues during the game, and move on. This constant bickering (not singling you out at all just in general) back and forth for days or even weeks arguing the same points over and over is getting old. Everyone has gotten the point, some believe CAM isn't the answer, some believe he is, and some believe its too early to tell. I have gotten to the point where I don't even check the board anymore during a game.

    So some concerns I’m having...

    I find it hard to not have patience for this coach when since 1998 we are on our 6th coach. The university has not exactly given any chance to establish a long running culture of winning like they had when I was growing up in the late 80s and 90s. The longest tenure of those 6 coaches was 9 years and we all know how that roller coaster was! Which IMO, It should have ended after the Syracuse debacle of losing 2 times within a year and not having any clue what to do with a zone defense. The team is now trying to pull a 180 in terms of culture and it is taking more time than all us fans were hoping for. Am I a CAM apologist, no, nor am I happy with losing. I want this team to win, I want my kids to experience IU winning another banner like I got to as a kid, I want them to cherish IU basketball like I do. Is CAM the answer, IDK, but I am still giving him the chance to show that he can.

    Injury Updates

    Its the same problem that he had his senior year, not sure what it is but he had the same wrist wrapped the same way last year.

    Agree with the assessment on Hunter at HH, I was there and he really went after Romeo.

    So some concerns I’m having...

    Yes, it was different and I actually liked it. I also think it is a little too late in the season to throw them in. I saw someone this morning say that maybe Davis should have been brought back much slower, than depending on him to log as many mins as he did and now he is unavailable again. They stated that was the time Jake and Cliff should have gotten some extended mins to get used to the game and gain experience. I kind of agree with that take. I would have much rather allowed Davis more time and let the freshman have time against some of the easier competition. If that happened I think they might not look as lost at times as they do now and we could potentially still have Davis available.

    IUBB @ Rutgers- Game Thread

    Lost another game, crap, but one thing that stood out to me last night was in the first half. We starting the game with a purpose, things were going "well", then a couple fouls sends McBob and Fitz in the game. The downward spiral then commenced with uninspired play and the ball movement came to a halt. There has been a lot of speculation over the last month that there is something happening in the locker room, and a possibility to me could be maybe there is something to McBob and Fitz. I know there were mistakes from Damezi, Forrester, and Moore, but at this point let them play and super glue, weld, or hog tie McBob and Fitz to the bench. Seriously, if they are put in the game, pass an open shot, miss another 3 (Fitz), let someone blow past them on D, or 1 more stone hands play, then CAM should pull them on the very next stoppage of play and not put them back unless they are completely out of other options.
