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.

I have Hulu + Live TV and can search for and find SEC Network. If you do not have this service, try a trial period and cancel. Good luck. Will be watching. What a weekend of Indiana sports!!

But, as of yet, I do not see the Saturday IU vs MSU game. Maybe because the time was not scheduled until recently. Dunno. Good luck.

Indiana caught another lightening in a bottle with Coach Cig...so far. The basketball had one, also. RMK 'The General'. And there may be others, too. Just look at those banners. What a great year. Did you catch the goals against UCLA in soccer? And we have IU basketball Sunday afternoon and I get it on Hulu + Live TV. And even off-brand streaming service have it in Evansville...I checked....SEC Network.

Hoo Hoo Hoo Hoosiers!

OSU took lead back from Nebr.

Ohio State is losing to Nebraska

Not bad for a basketball school. 8 - 0

Classic!

And holding makes at least 3 no calls. Welp...now for our offense to do something positive.

Only reason for the low scores is because of my big prediction for a change: W 24 IU 41 So of course it will be half of those marks.

TJ has his feet under him after a slow start. IU will find a way to get some rushing yardage. OL needs to figure how to push and trap. Hit the line a little earlier. Seems the coaches went conservative with TJ, understandably so. Pull out the stops. Let TJ run. Hope the turnovers keep favoring IU. Not sure about our DL at times. But that is football. Hope defense keeps IU in the game. Keep thinking bend but not break. Touch and go, though.

Take it to the bank. Hey, IU by 10 at the half. Kept Washington's offense off of the field. IU is a second-half team...just get some pushes on offense. A little razzle dazzle would help.

you mean like that?

Have to keep the defense off of the field. And run the clock.

Yeeeehaaaaw!!
