Any indication when Morgan might return?

Mentioned JBJ earlier. Think about how impressive he would be if he sacrificed at times to locate a more than capable teammate for the better/easier shot.

Man, JBJ doesn't like to give up the rock. He is a shoot first and shoot second type guy. This is nothing new, but sometimes when he misses hitting the open man I'm just left shaking my head. On the bright side, JBJ has really been putting forth the effort, both defensively and following his shot.

Watching UCLA and pUKe. I'm confused. A team can play both offense AND defense?

I'm sure there are plenty of reasons Brad Stevens shouldn't, but simply put, if he wins a nat'l championship he becomes God or some lesser known deity or immortal. The adulation that would flow forth from the Hoosier fan base would ensconce him in our warm welcoming embrace. Err...plus money and job security into 2025.

Crean you are a decent recruiter, but no head coach. You should donate your buyout to aid in securing a new coach and rebuilding this tattered program.

How many McDAA's do we have on this team? How many 4* and 5* recruits? D poor. RBs poor. Hustle poor. Game strategy poor. TOs better. There I said something positive.

Now it's time to play tight and scared. So much talent ...

FTs please

Matador D and no rebounding

"The refs...in Cameron...please". (If Walton was calling this game)

Here comes the home cooking

Just saw Dukie V on ESPN in a blue cowboy hat at Cameron. I didn't know he was calling the game. Woe is us. Could you imagine Dukie V and Walton on the call?

Certain posters predilections notwithstanding, I just watched the 2002 clip of Duke IU. We could sure use some Moye right about now.

86 to 75 Duke

Rotate on D, please. Every time I say it in Bill Walton style because it makes me laugh rather than chucking something at the screen.

Hoosiers rotate on defense, please. (in a Bill Walton voice)

Bryant did play like a Freshman at times, but no way he shouldn't start. As to whatever occurred between them, I applaud Bryant's passion nonetheless. We need leaders on the court that learn, absorb, impart and put into practice what they should've grasped at this point. I don't care who does it (and Yogi would seem like the natural choice) just that it gets done, so we see a cohesive push with smart play and indomitable displays of energy and effort by every single player that wishes to see time on the floor.

I had not heard of that. If true, this is a damn shame. Thanks for sharing.

There was a Luke Fischer incident?

So… We have numerous McDonald's all Americans, three players in the wooden award top 50, wake forest has several players suspended and their best player injured, wake is untangled and we managed to lose in the closest thing to a test that actually shouldn't of even that a test? This hurts more than other upsets of top 20 teams primarily because the Hoosiers have so much to prove this year. My fear is with their play yesterday evening they have proven something, but not what we might have hoped.

Excellent summary/analysis by the original poster. I Agree 100% with the proposed course of action.

I loved CW, but he did not go to the rim enough for someone of his height for my liking. I agree with the rebound statement. He also seemed to shy away from contact.

I would say if we add RA and either keep JBJ or land BB we should have a top 25 team easy. That would be either two MCDAAs in our backcourt and one in our front court or one in our backcourt and one in our front court with with almost all top 100 talent rounding that out.

Nice insight. I didn't think of that at all. It is huge though.
