Sweet goal IU...Mihalik.

Sarver goal! Love it...

Get excited for soccer tonight.

My advice for gameday is to the Indiana team to win.

Don't question yourself in posts like this. Mistakes are made. We caught them. Really appreciate the heads up early on broadcasts and information. Like I said, mistakes will get corrected. Your hard work is appreciated. Very much.

I would agree if this was about the first half and the early part of the 2nd half. But, then things rapidly changed. IU was playing against what may prove, again, to be an elite defensive team. One of the best teams, possibly, in the SEC. Big difference in what I saw was a possibly elite PG in Miles Rice. Quick, decisive, gets to the rim, distributes quickly, handles pressure well. Also, once Reneau got warm and he and Ballo played high/low, things started to click. Finally Mack shook off the rust and contributed. Defense got better and IU got the ball across the half court rapidly. Half of the 8 three point shots in the 2nd half were good. And Coach Woody did not platoon and pull the starters all at once. Not only did this look different, after lots of questions in the first half, but it looked light-years better to me. Holy Basketball, Batman! A point guard that is smart and quick and makes things happen and defends. Been yearning for this since...well...a bunch of seasons too numerous to count. And adjustments during the game that worked...and defensive focus. Pinch me.

Winner! Winner! And good news, fans!

IU by 4 with 10 seconds to go. Time out. TN ball....

It is time to start playing team ball, team defense, get the loose balls, and go into and keep the lead. Refuse to lose.

Hey it's early in the season. Maybe he will lead cheering from the bench.

We have very few assists. Turnover rate is down. Technical Foul rate is down. Shooting percentage is up. Rebound rate is down. Defense is porous.

IND 44 TENN 48 10:57 2nd Half

Reneau looks slow out on the perimeter where a shooter should be.

Mack needs to step up his game. 0 points? Fast break works. Our passing seems bad...partly because of TN defense...partly because our team is not moving without the ball. I don't understand the 3-point shooting bricks. And this may qualify me to be a coach for IU.

No screening. No movement by some. No coming to the ball handler when double screened. No rebounds. Ball handling by Mgbako and Reneau is questionable to say the least. Would be nice to see someone, anyone, hit from out. Rusty? Yes. But it is October. Do like the feeds from Mgbako to Ballo. Do like Miles Rice. Do not want to see bigs out at the perimeter...what are Reneau and Ballo doing out at the 3-point area handling the ball? Someone pls explain the technicals.

It is wonderful to see basketball with Indiana players, again. Miles Rice is smooth and knows what to do. Mgbako needs to hit the three. Ballo is a presence underneath...but should not dribble from the perimeter to go by a quicker defender. Defense looks ok at times. Then matadors.

Found the game...event starting soon. I have Hulu + Live TV. Go to ESPN+, then scroll...

I'm waiting to hit the lottery. I won once. Back in 1971, I won the Vietnam lottery and got into submarines. Really lucky. Submariners do it deeper and not up the Mekong. I'm still waiting for another big one. You may never hear from me again. But there will be signs.
