Interesting paragraph in Jordan Hull's lastest that appears on AlbersAngle. It was a Q & A and Jordan gave this answer: Coach Crean: I have never seen Coach shoot a jump shot. Ever. He would always demonstrate drills and such but he never actually fired it up there. Maybe he did it so we could just get on with the drill because he was always super efficient with practices and what we had to get done…But 4 years and never see him shoot a jumper? Pretty interesting, haha. Could we assume, he has absolutely no technique or understanding of shooting fundamentals because he never played the game at a high level?

Catching up on today's posts re: OG. I think he can come back from the surgery, but if I'm an NBA exec, I want to see how he can perform post-surgery before I shell out a big $ contract. So, he possibly becomes an undrafted free agent or needs to come back to IU to demonstrate that he's physically capable. And hasn't JBJ had 3 knee surgeries although I don't know how the severity of his injuries compare to what OG has suffered? And although we couldn't find a spot for him, Mo Creek bounced back for a pretty solid season at George Washington.

Now if we could just land a player with the name of Dew!

After shooting woes the night before, Gordon bounced back nicely. Pretty good night for Vic and another routine triple-double for his teammate Westbrook. 01.18.17 Season W/L W/L Min. Pts.

Michigan State at home on the 21st. At Michigan on the 26th At Northwestern on the 29th. Not a pretty sight with our current M*A*S*H* team.

Hardly surprising news: Don Fischer says OG Anunoby's injury is indeed a knee and Anunoby will not return tonight.

I can't fault Penn St. Yes, it may seem cold, but if they stop, they're only in the way of our staff trying to get to OG. And it's always possible someone on our team takes it the wrong way and stuff begins to happen that shouldn't. If anything, maybe someone should publicly chastise CTC for having words with Chambers.

Twitter world thinks the way his knee buckled is an ACL

Preliminarily - YES it's bad.

Halftime

Under 8

Morgan out with foot injury; day to day.

If Green only gets garbage minutes tonight, you could probably take this as the first step in a Creaning.

Andy Bottoms‏@AndyBottoms Excluding the 8 cupcake games, tonight's IU starting lineup is -7 in 43:21. Have played well in spurts but struggled in others

My worrymeter just took a big jump.

How big is Wednesday’s game at Penn State? If you put any stock into KenPom’s win probabilities, it’s enormous. Here’s a look at Indiana’s remaining Big Ten road games with Pomeroy’s chances of an Indiana win (as of Tuesday, Jan. 17):

Latest from Jordan is in the form of a Q and A. http://albersangle.com/4-interesting-questions-jordan-hulls/

SB Riley remains undefeated with an 83-70 win over Elkhart Memorial. Anderson with 32 pts. and 10 reb.

Not a shooting night that Gordon will want to remember. No D-League games for IU guys. 01.17.17 Season W/L W/L Min. Pts.
