    General Coach Candidate News

    I think that's probably right, but I also think anything from Goodman or Bozich is conjecture at best, and not from Dolson. With the last search, there was very little info out there, and then all of a sudden Woodson was announced. It would make sense that agents might be leaking some info, but I'd be surprised if anybody actually close to the search is giving out info about how IU has candidates ranked internally.

  2. Refs not calling anything, and Ballo can't finish. Not a good combo Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  3. Leal has gotta look at the rim when he's wide open. He's had multiple chances where he's been wide open, and it's like he's scared to put it up and passes into a worse look. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  4. How many misses at the rim? Offense has collapsed Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    I've loved watching Leal this year. The thing I don't understand though... Wasn't he a shooter coming out of high school? I don't expect him to be a go to guy on offense, but he's turned into a D only guy for the most part. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Mgbako not boxing out on a free throw... It's basic stuff Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Absolutely no reason for Rice to double Mara on that. Wide open 3 was obvious as soon as he crashed that hard. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  9. Did Mgbako just get an over the back foul while boxing out?! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  10. He traveled because the guy was hacking his arm Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Rice has had it picked from behind multiple times this game. Team is so poorly coached. Terrible awareness Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Carlyle has been extremely disappointing. Hopefully it changes, but he doesn't seem to be good at anything offensively Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Reneau might want to stop running the break Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  15. I thought you were supposed to have your hands on the ball to get a jump ball Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  16. Cupps has to be the youngest looking player in college bball. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  17. Mgbako has to start taking the first shot. He's just getting himself into a worse one Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  18. How are we so bad at communicating on screens?! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  19. Penn State is playing football defense in the paint and somehow IU doesn't have a free throw. Woodson needs to get after the refs at the half Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  20. These refs have been very bad tonight Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  21. Yep, Ware was straight up. Played great defense Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  22. Just imagine if X would have been healthy all year... [emoji2359] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    General Coach Candidate News

    On Pardon My Take, Bilas listed Schertz first when they asked him about coaches who are doing the best job right now and changing the game schematically. He listed Schertz, Oats, and Tommy Lloyd Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    They “Retired” Coach Woodson Thread

    Indiana is a bad team, but with a lot of talent. The talent just often doesn't make sense together. Everybody in the starting lineup is a 4 or 5*. So for small stretches, things can click. But the lack of cohesion/plan is a killer outside of small glimmers of hope. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    General Coach Candidate News

    This gets back to my point about talent though. The problem is not with the offensive philosophy, it's with the talent. College talent is significantly diluted since guys started leaving early regularly. I think even if you moved the best coaching from the 80s to today it wouldn't be nearly as effective, both because the offensive skill level is lower, and the defensive athleticism is much greater. You can't compare teams from the 80s and 90s to today. None of those teams would exist today because almost all of the players would have already been in the NBA for 2 years.
