  1. I haven't been impressed with the play calling at all this year. There have been games where it's totally predictable (run, run, pass, punt). Yesterday, it was like he didn't realize that you can run and pass in the same drive. Tough to keep losing those winnable games.
  2. I never got too worried until around 10-15 games into the season. Especially given all the changes this past year. I think good teams look totally different in March than November/December. It's great to win and look good, but terrible to peak in January!
  3. I like the line that says the language suggests they won't immediately fire him. It's always that way until they do.
  4. I like Ballard, but he built the team to win in the trenches and they aren't. It makes the lack of skill at skill positions really stick out when that isn't happening.
  5. "What’s that? Ah - Playoffs? Don’t talk about - playoffs? You kidding me? Playoffs? I just hope we can win a game!"
  6. DQ! Does his name not sound like Dairy Queen to anyone else? Was that on purpose?
  7. My hope is that Phin will be the most improved because he isn't constantly looking over at the bench and he can just play. I think the team would benefit the most if he improves. I think Geronimo will probably be the guy that has the most improvement though. If he can get that outside shot to be a little more consistent, he has the tools. He just needs some experience.
  8. It sounds like he is more of a SF than PF. Or maybe a SF that can play PF in a small line up?
  9. Speaking as an old guy who has been a fan since the early 80's, I would welcome some alternate jerseys. I'd definitely like us to maintain the traditional, but I think having some nice looking alternative jerseys would be a nice change. Names on the back? Really not that concerned. If the recruits like it, I say we do it at least on the alternates. I mean, what if we put names on the back for a game and wipe the floor with Kentucky, Duke, or Purdue? Does everyone change their bias? I also like tradition, but there aren't many recruits that know our tradition as anything but former powerhouse that has been mediocre in their lifetime.
  10. I can't claim to know all the exact rules, but my understanding is that they are pretty limited on instruction time and limited on how many players they can coach at a time (for some reason, 4 was sticking in my head). I'm sure others know more that I do about this.
  11. It's not without weaknesses, but seems to be a definite upgrade. Especially considering the time in which it has happened.
  12. So, this kind of makes it sound like the staff at IU may be weighing whether this is a good move? Is it a case where he is ready to make a move and we are deciding if we want that to happen?
  13. Tom? Is that you?
  14. Right there with you, although I felt all along that we needed to give Allen some time.
  15. Don't be surprised if you don't see them until 5 minutes before it starts though.
  16. I certainly hope so!
  17. I think you may have some valid points here. Hopefully, I’m correct in my opinion that this team is capable of so much more than they have shown. If that is the case and the coaching staff is able to take this team and make it a tournament team, the recruits will come.
  18. My understanding was that Stewart was eligible this past season. Maybe I missed something, but why didn't he play in any games?
  19. Any mention of bigrod on there?
  20. Wouldn't it be nice to know we were firmly in and not waiting to see which side of the bubble were ended up on?
