Go Beavers!!!!! My second fav team and alma mater!

Yeah I saw that too!

Looked like Race was ready to go into the stands and beat some a$$ at the end of the video!

Whoever the next coach is, an addition should be added Assembly Hall for him to live! Terms of contract, you shall live in the hall until you bring us to the promised land!

Thanks Chris! That’s why I brought that here, I knew I could count on you for clarification,lol!

Not sure who the person is over at HSN but he just posted a response to someone posting the BoT email with “that isn’t needed” followed by the post “it’s looking like Miller Time is over. Who knows! I guess we will see.

Well I’m at a loss, I really wanted Archie to succeed, a young upcoming coach with a decent record at Dayton sounded really good at first. After this season, apathy! I have watched every game this year and I just don’t know what to say! I definitely don’t agree with booing the players, that’s not right! But enough is enough it’s time to move on, I’m just not sure where the coaching search goes and that really worries me!

I believe she was referring to the below the belt shots that are being sent directly to the players from fans. I looked at her page, and that topic has been brought up a few times. Why dm a player, why? Smh!

You best player not checked in absolutely does. No post presence over complicated things for the guards, which our guards don’t need any help in complicating things.

Yes several half performances this year, but today all game. And it’s the same MO every game he does this, either too soft or wayyyy to hard at the rim, lazy passes, back to the basket is no existent, no fight on rebounding, at least 1 over the back call on him..... I just don’t get it!

I think the biggest reason for today’s performance, TJD! He did not, for the 4-5th time this season, look as though he wanted to be there. The dilemma is what as a coach do you do when you have 1 other player with size? Do you continue to let him check out or do you bench him and hope that a smaller line up can hang? I do not understand TJD at all, all B1G talent, on any night could take on anyone in D-1, but every couple games decides to either take the game off or is still in bed sleeping! I have seen a lot of people say he is gone this year, but have not seen him in very many draft conversations, and I believe his disappearing acts may have a lot to do with it. If he wants to play at the next level, he has to turn it on game in and game out! I don’t know if he can.

Blood pressure meds working overtime tonight! I’m afraid to stand up

Where Is the FranCon scale! Alert, Alert!

Most Indian Pacer thing ever, trade is finalized, LeVert is ruled out indefinitely with a mass on his kidney!

Where the hell are these refs from? I’ve seen at least 4 missed fouls for us JD purdouche is getting 8 on 5

No complaints from me, other than f Bucky! They played their ***** off! Good d, some nice offense at times, young guys stepped up, oh and f the zebras too! There should be penalties from the NCAA or B1G for this type of officiating! Not only that last play with Leal. What about the Bucky player that tripped Al to the ground no call!

I’m beginning to believe that the shooting woes are coming from strength and conditioning.

My chiropractor is also a physical therapist and trainer. He has me doing some core exercises with kettle bells. Talk about a work out!!!! I need to get back into doing the exercises, because they were really helping. I've been teleworking from home since March and my motivation is really slacking.

Right there with you on the back issues. I destroyed my back in Iraq in 2008. I am finally doing better, but I have to visit the chiropractor once a week to maintain what I have now. One wrong move and I'm down for at least a couple days. Heck I can sit or sleep the wrong way and be down.

Hey Fellow Hoosier Fans, I'm back! So since I have been working from home, our IT department banned all sports websites! I also had to get a new Iphone so no app for me. Well apparently the sports ban for the computers is apparently gone. Yeah!

I didn't know where to post this but Pat Graham's mother just posted that Pat is at home recovering from a heart attack he had on March 21st. She says he is doing great. Prayers to the Graham family and Pat.

Exactly, and the reason there were no lanes is due to more than just having the 2nd big in the post. It was also due to the extra 2-3 defenders packing the post because we could not spread the floor due to dismal 3 point shooting. All the defense had to do in most games this season was to guard the ball and pack the post. Later in the season, when more shots were falling by different players, I, personally, think that the offense did get to open up a little and there was a little more freedom of movement. Solution, add shooters, spread the floor, eliminate the need to play 2 bigs, open lanes, pgs can now drive/pick&roll or pop. Hunter was known for his back to the basket skills, thats why I mentioned it. However, if he were to play the 4, even if he was a stretch 4, he would still have to likely guard a post position at some point. Again I said I was speculating at why he wasn't played at the 4 (due to his injury/condition).

I don't think you are getting what I am saying. We had open 3 point attempts all season long and missed tons. So, that leads to the other team sagging off of our perimeter players cause they knew we were not going to hit them. In turn they packed the paint, causing our bigs more trouble inside with a crowded lane that is already being crowded by playing 2 bigs or 1 big and 1 slasher (JS). I am speculating that the offense that was ran was to try and compensate for the lack of 3 point shooting and lack of a perimeter big. Have 2 Bigs down low to try and power through the defense, whose sole focus is now defending the paint, and for put backs. The purpose of a 4 out 1 in approach is to open the lane, however, this approach will not work if you cannot hit 3s effectively, because the defense doesn't have to guard the perimeter. They can sag into the lane and crowd the lane for the slasher or big. I believe the reason that we missed so many bunnies this season, wasn't just because we had too many guys on the block it was because of the defense sagging off the perimeter helping against the post. Too much resistance for the bigs to finish effectively. Until IU solves the perimeter game, there is nothing, no set half court offense that will solve the issue. Unless we maintain the up tempo offense, that doesn't allow the defense to get set. We have to become successful from behind the arc to make defenses stay with their guy to open the post. To respond to some other things in your post, there would be no reason to put Hunter at the 4 this past year. Yes, he can play with his back to the basket, but he just come off of what could have been a career ending condition, playing as a "freshman" in the B1G. Why would you put him down low, with the uncertainty of another clot or whatever his condition was? Maybe it was the coach watching out for the health of his player, making sure that his condition didn't return due to the rough nature of post play B1G basketball? IDK, but it might be a reason, just speculating. I truly believe Hunter is very lucky to still be playing basketball at this point and wish him all of the success to come. Phinese played all year with what is sounding like a sports hernia, which would account for some of the lack of explosiveness. That s**t hurts, I've had one in basketball and it shut me down. So if this is the case, props to Rob for being able to push through that.
