  1. I agree. And I have no problem giving up a lead to play guys in exhibition games who need the experience. I just think Max is much more limited vs what some others think.
  2. Yea, I can agree with that to an extent. I'm pretty sure I will cringe every time we take TB out against decent competition though.
  3. Agree. Starting five is very good but with the exception of Rojo we drop off big time  when we go to the bench.
  4. I would narrow it to lack of depth and experience upfront. Bryant is a freshmen and Bielfelt is a career sub from Michigan even though they lacked a front court presence much of the time as well.
  5. 2 questions:   1. Are fans leaving the premises or just going out to tailgate more?   2. How many Iowa fans showed up?
  6. I think we still land Davis. But man, we shouldn't have all our  eggs in one basket and it shouldn't be this difficult to land one top 50 big.
  7. Starting to get the same feeling.
  8. This is true. Top assistants are huge in college football and you have to pay good $$ for them. While I think it sends the wrong message to keep a guy who just keeps losing and losing I agree a new coach probably doesn't make much difference here.
  9. And, all you guys who want the college game to look like the NBA guess what? You are gonna continually need NBA talented players to compete. So recruiting stars just gets more important. There is a reason Duke suddenly became a player in the one and done game. Coach K understands where the college game is headed.
  10. Its just amazing we have these great pieces but have lost 5 straight. If I'm Wilson I change the game plan. Go ball control and play to our strengths of a strong offensive line and Howard. Mix in a little Redding. A little play action pass from time to time and hope the receiver catches it. ANYTHING to keep our D on the sideline.
  11. Yea, I'm not upset by the quote at all. I appreciate a leader being totally honest. Got to be frustrating.
  12. I tend to agree I just don't get why you pay to attend the game then leave at half. Its IU football but we are still usually in it at half. I'd either stay home and watch on tv (most likely) or suffer through to at least the 4th quarter.
  13. We'll probably have a strong defense and zero offense.
  14. Well we havent given up 50 yet.
  15. WOW! Hard to go bowling with that.
  16. WOW is right. Where did that come from?
  17. This will ultimately be good for the program. The pressure to succeed this year will:   1. Force Crean to change what hasn't been working thus making him a better coach or     2.He sticks to his philosophy the team doesn't meet expectations and everyone agrees its time to move on.     How will our leader respond under pressure?
  18. Seen this this morning. Prayers for the Joseph family.
  19. No pt at UK helped.
  20. Cujo is a nice player but we need Bruce Brown or Rawle real bad!
  21. Unless you are Bo Ryan, Brad Stevens or Bob Knight 25 years ago recruit rankings matter. And when you have a very mediocre coach recruit rankings REALLY matter. A whole bunch.
  22. Crean HAS to get better recruiting bigs. More than one at a time on the roster and a more balanced roster so we aren't constantly counting on a frosh as our inside presence.
  23. Whats the D look like?
