He is the king of reminding people or trying to convince people he is in the know and he does so by saying a whole lot of nothing riddled with outs Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

There were certainly some that were thinking/saying vandy weeks before but there were just as many people saying IU including the media guys like Raby and some of this sites insiders Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

He’s gotten a ton of offers in the past few weeks from some legit schools including West Virginia and Texas Tech Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

YES! Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

so what I am hearing is this can be put squarely on the shoulders of Fred Glass. How did he allow Crean to do this to the program for 3 straight years? Crean and Glass buried us then and still are if this is indeed a driving factor in our woes Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

Archie’s job and our support/apathy depend on next year being a very different team Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

Green for you, Smith for me. I think more often than not Smith is slow, lazy, soft and lost. At some point potential and athleticism is pointless Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

I almost want to like this sans the last comment. I really don’t think Green is our problem. I want guys that are confident, cocky, want the ball in their hands at key times. There aren’t many on this team Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

Hard fought loss. Our offense is still pitiful but loved the fight and effort. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

If Archie uses the bench to motivate and punish those that have poor work ethics and are soft then we can assume that Moore and Forester are the big problems here right? Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

Yep, as soon as Glass said this was a major rebuild he should have been fired. That means that he stood by and watched a team get this bad before making a change. One, I don’t think a major rebuild was necessary. This should have been a 20 win season and it’s not and that is on glass and Archie Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

Assembly Hall has not been packed, the upper deck is a ghostland Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

Are we prepared to bring in a class of 4-6? We only have 2 signed, that leaves a lot of scholarships to fill in a short time Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

That’s right, I think our bench could go 1-9 so what’s the difference? Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

Those small adjustments would help. If I’m Archie I am telling Phinisee and Durham to take over and lead. They could be our guys for the next couple of years. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

That could be it. I don’t want to act like I know this team but I got the impression they were mostly good guys so it is hard to imagine so much discord amongst them to turn an otherwise promising season into one of the biggest dumpster fires we have seen. Losing 9 of 10 is like Crean walk on years type stuff, it’s incredible Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

Where is Chris and others on this? There is something significant here and for nobody to know is odd. Has Archie lost the team? Has the team lost each other in that there is hate/distrust amongst them? Why are historically decent shooters no longer able to shoot when they put on an IU uniform? Why are quick and athletic players incapable and hesitant to run a fast break? Why is there little fire being shown by anyone? This has become a super boring and annoying team to watch and there is no reason for that; we have all-bigten players, McDonalds All-Americans, 4 star players all over the court and bench and we can barely crack the 50 point mark at home anymore. Wtf is going on? How has no one close to the program shed light on this? Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

This is Cody’s freshman year. Victor and Cody weren’t all-Americans that year, Watford was starting to figure it out, as was hulls but none of them were the players they were in in 12/13. Yogi was not there then either so that leaves verdell and he is in no way in Morgan’s league. We would have started or at least given the most minutes to hulls, oladipo, Morgan, Watford, zeller. That would be the most talented 5 with all five being able to score Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

Morgan isn’t coming off the bench on that team nor most good teams. He is an all-bigten player Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

Not sure if we are talking about the same play but if we are, I saw it as Justin Smith not staying in front of his man when he cut to the basket off the screen. He was caught out in no man’s land and then jogged back Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

I think we would all like to know... Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

Glass is that you? Hey look, I have never said “fire Archie” and I am far from that mindset. However, nobody needs to make any excuses for what we are seeing on the court. There needs to be a lot of improvement made and it is ridiculous to think we need to wait until he has a full roster of his players. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

I didn’t read the thread so if this has been stated I apologize but, Archie has to sit Justin Smith. His half @$$ sloppy efforts all over the court is killing us. Play smaller if you have to, play bigger if you have to but he has no business on the court. He has all the tools but jogs around aimlessly out there and I cannot stand watching it anymore Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

I wasn’t really trying to imply the kid tried to hurt Juwan but he dove and his dive to the ground landed directly on juwan’s back and shoulder. It was a foul vs a jump ball but it wasn’t called Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app
