TJD demanding the ball! Please do so

I'll say this about this year's Hoosiers, when we go bad, we go full bad...and no team should ever go full bad

Pathetic first half...again

They are going to go straight at Lander and Hunter

Knowing a couple members of the coaching staff on CMA, it'd be easy money wagering his shot will improve while at IU.

Galloway - time and score. He's going to be a good one. I'd much rather let him bang around to spell Thompson than to watch Hunter get worked down there. Give up a couple inches, but I'd take my chances

College basketball refs love the charge call. It has to change

He's not going anywhere with the lack of revenue from no fans in football and basketball. I'm not sure I see enough Big10 quality basketball players which could make next year quite ugly

Rob is a ghost. We need better PG play or I fear where we place in the Big10. I guess a partner for TJD leaves a lot to be desired too. No bueno

Galloway contributes everything that Hunter does, with better defense

11:30 too early for him, maybe he wakes up after halftime

Not a good look on that close out from Hunter, or lack of a close out is probably a better description

What is happening to this board? Start Leal? Please. I will say if Lander doesn't play nearly 30 minutes, I thinks it's a missed opportunity. Lander needs minutes, and he won't find much this season as it continues until he can get his footing at this level. This isn't directed at you Clapper but: This forum is a funny place sometime. Lots of pointing to GBI and how toxic that place becomes - I've only ventured over there a few times but this place can't be much different after IU loses. Think there should be some perspective here. Yes, we still are very poor shooting team and that's incredibly frustrating, but we went to overtime on the road against a very good FSU team without Brunk - who I assume can still at least rebound. We lost by 2 against the 20th team in the country despite, giving up two possessions from rebounds off their own free-throw and I recall a critical turnover/foul from TJD after a rebound and failed outlet (I think that was a block, but still free points). Clean that up, make a shot and we're talking instead of how scrappy and how much of a hardfought win that was on the road rather than our failed shooting for 4 years and how this team will get waxed in the Big10. Sunshine pumping? Eh, maybe? Just let things play out this season before we starting generating the lists of the next coach. Just my $0.02

TJD! What a play!

He’s done it a few times tonight sadly. More critical on him than I probably should but was hoping a senior Durham would finally curb that from his game

Oh trust me, I get it and hopefully Archie does as well (it's been obvious for a few years or so), but I'd rather enjoy THIS season. Assuming Trey will improve. Aarman already showing more confidence. It's a marathon not a sprint

Love the fight and scrappiness. Can't shoot a lick, doesn't matter! Go Hoosiers

I suppose it wouldn’t be a season if Al Durham didn’t drive up his own teammates back. One of the most frustrating moves from an IU player I can remember.

Settling in so much better after that TO! Let's go Hoosiers!

Hoping TJD comes out with the same fire today like against Stanford. Will need that for conference play!

I just don't buy the rationale that firing Archie means an automatic rebuild. The next coach wouldn't be inheriting an empty roster like Crean inherited or left Archie when he lost momentum on the recruiting trail. Does Archie need to recruit better? Without a doubt, but there's some pieces here, I just don't know if they are being put into a position to succeed consistently enough. I'm still hopeful Archie turns this around, today was, hopefully and simply, a bad day. The shooting is still bad, but I'm still not entirely sure I can see what's trying to be accomplished on the offensive end. If the plan is to pound it to TJD, he'll need to play far better as the competition continues to improve.

With the three guards - why not try and force the tempo. Saw a little against Providence and Tenn Tech but nothing today. Not sure how much of that was Texas and how much was us just getting in our own way. This has been bad shooting still and I fear things only get worse when Brunk returns as the lane will be even more clogged. TJD and Brunk on the floor together gives me nightmares from last season and sadly TJD doesn’t look improved enough for that rotation to work in my eyes this season. I’m still hopeful for improvement as we play 3 freshman regularly but this looks more of the same from the past few years. Not seeing much change in the offensive game plan, but it’s early

Galloway played a lot of point guard/forward for CMA. He's had the ball in his hands a lot, Galloway is the least of my concerns with this squad.

I'd almost assume that a redshirt was discussed as a deal breaker for him to commit to IU. I honestly have no idea how many games you can play in a 2020 college basketball season and still redshirt but I thought that college football had a limit of 4 games a few years ago.
