  1. Offense is so anemic that there doesn’t ever seem to be a game plan. Just run the weave and see if anything opens up.
  2. He needs to be flash frozen and stored next to Ted Williams’ head until future medicine finds a cure for bad shooting.
  3. It’s always good to admit error.
  4. I think you missed the joke there.
  5. Why would Jake not be returning? A guy rated that low coming out of high school certainly didn’t expect big minutes his freshman year, right? The only thing I can guess is that he’s putting in the effort day in / day out and sees low effort guys (Smith) getting all the minutes.
  6. Please share the tweets if you have them.
  7. Let’s remember we had a WEEK to prepare for this game.
  8. If you want to play like a minor league team, take the bus home to Bloomington. Flights are for the big timers.
  9. The best analogy for this team’s play is the old lady at your gym reading a magazine on the elliptical.
  10. Broadcasters hammering the coaching staff on Romeo’s lack of involvement. That’s half true I’d say. Romeo needs to be aggressive too.
  11. Please, no more Fitzner this year. He was a miss. Let’s see what a healthy Race can do with those minutes.
  12. Why is Smith guarding Murphy? Why is Fitzner anywhere near the court? THAT is on the coaching staff.
  13. This team is just painful to watch. Looks like they’re in a walkthrough or warm ups most of the time, moving at 70% intensity. That’s just not gonna cut it in this league. The team is either totally unprepared or unwilling to play hard.
  14. Sheehey was my exact thought as a model for Smith. Come off the bench with some energy, make aggressive cuts to the basket for slams, crash the offensive boards. I'm giving Smith the benefit of the doubt with this statement (which he may not deserve), but it's possible the lack of effort we've seen from him is because he's tired. Coming off the bench for 20 mins a game may help to fix that issue. Davis can't go for 30-35 minutes right now so there should still be plenty of time for Smith to impact the game.
  15. Davis had 7 assists in one of the games last week. I agree - he should absolutely be the starting 5 and Morgan at the 4. I would love to see that. Morgan at the 4 creates actual spacing since Smith's defender gives him about 10 ft of open space on the perimeter.
  16. Has anyone been tracking the progress of Miller Time t-shirt sales? Could be a leading indicator.
  17. Didn’t we get in pretty late on both Bryant and Vonleh? also - Eric Gordon? Sorry Illini.
  18. Any observations on Leal vs Galloway from this season so far?
  19. How about the year he got fired? That was an abomination of a season and there are still plenty of players from that roster.
  20. Did you watch the Crean teams that couldn’t shoot three pointers? It would be just as ugly.
  21. Smith should never dribble.
  22. Out of work coaches tour practices across the country all the time. Bruiser Flint was at a Crean practice a couple years ago. I think Crean went to a bunch of practices last year before getting the Georgia job.
