    So what's the deal with the jerseys?

    Most guys prefer having their shorts shorter like that. That’s why high school kids are rolling their shorts up because theirs are to long for their liking. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

  4. Winchester played Union City who isn’t very good at all. The kid was averaging 16 and 11 per game though before tonight. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

    He’s shorter and he’s a scorer and not a pg. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app
  6. I think the key for Romeo will be what part of the first round he’s projected to go in. He has started to slide down mock drafts so if he falls out of the top 10 I could see a scenario where he decides to come back. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners
  7. Well Rabby has said the same but he also jumped the gun on Yogi and that didn't go over so well so I don't know if I would completely believe what has been said on Peegs but I also don't know about any of the TJD rumors at this point lol.

    Nope Newkirk was terrible and IU is definitely better off without him. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

    The look of the shorts is perfectly fine. I like them other schools wear similar ones. The jerseys don’t really match though and I don’t get that at all. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners
  10. IU had no shot here without a QB that can actually throw the football more than 10 yards. Yes Penix might be the answer but who really knows at this point. A talented WR doesn’t want to take that kind of risk I’m sure when he’s trying to get to the NFL. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners
  11. That's probably the closest comp but when I say Brown plays zero defense I do mean zero defense. Like James Blackmon gave better effort on Defense so I don't know if he can get past that but time will tell.
  12. He’s a very good FT shooter shooting about 96% from the line on the season I believe. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app
  13. Here is his stat line from last night against Monroe Central. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app
  14. He can get his shot off with very little space and like I said he can score. He didn’t really take to many bad shots and he is a good passer. His percentage was pretty good as well but I’m not sure the exact number. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

    You have your opinion I have mine. But we’ll be fine after IU wins their next 7 games which I think they will and heads into the Michigan game with a 12-2 record. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

    So some concerns I’m having...

    Here is the reason I said that. When he has come into games he hasn’t looked to do to much unlike last year when he looked to shoot it every time he touched the ball. Also multiple players have mentioned how hard he’s been working in practice and pushing the other guys but hey what do I know. You can agree with my take on more if you’d like but that doesn’t excuse the fact that it’s obvious other guys have gotten better but you can ignore that too if you’d like.

    So some concerns I’m having...

    I think Morgan has hit his ceiling as a player. Durham has gotten better. Davis is limited by his athleticism plus he’s missed a lot of time with injury. Moore has gotten better but he doesn’t get much time for whatever reason. McRoberts has gotten better with his jumper. Smith I don’t understand and Green is what he is and isn’t changing. Plus you have 5 new players with one of them likely out for the season in Hunter. Saying none of the players have gotten better is a ridiculous hot take with no substance to it.

    Justin Smith is terrible on both ends of the floor. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners
  19. After watching Luke Brown he is 6’1 however he is a small D1 school kid at best. The reason is because he won’t be able to guard D1 guards. He can shoot and pass but he isn’t a good enough athlete to guard high school kids let alone D1 guards. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners

    IU doesn't have anybody that is physical enough if Zion catches the ball on the block. The key is to try and keep him off the block and limit quick threes and TO's so he can't cherry pick the whole game which is how he gets most of his points. If Smith makes him dribble in the half court and settle for jump shots he should be just fine but Morgan can't be on him to start the game imo like was mentioned above but I'm not sure that Morgan won't get in foul trouble guarding Bolden either as he has been much better for Duke this year.
  21. Since there are starting to be kids announcing they are transferring I figured we needed a thread for them. With this I saw Ball State QB Riley Neal is transferring. If I’m IU I would consider making a run at him to add an experienced voice to the QB room that has some talent. Yes Penix is the QB of the future but I don’t want to live and die with only a redshirt freshman with limited experience and Ramsey who has no arm strength at all.

  22. I don't think Allen is necessarily the biggest issue himself. He has been landing talented recruits which does help his case. He does need to turn over DC duties and he needs a new OC. Their are somebig names out their and solid options but they have to get a better OC regardless. Also they have to improve the QB situation. Ramsey has one of the weakest arms I have seen he may be smart but he can't throw the ball down field. Penix might be alright but we can't completely rely on him because injuries do happen.

    Fisch was on the Radio with Dakich earlier and the only guys he said would 100% be back were Green and McBob so I was going off the assumption that he is still out.

    Keys for IU against Duke IMO Make Zion shoot jumpers and handle the ball Make Barrett shoot jump shots over getting to the rim Make Reddish put the ball on the floor by running him off his spot Block out Bolden and Zion to limit second chance points Matchups Phinisee - Jones Romeo - Reddish McBob - Barrett Smith - Williamson Morgan - Bolden This is a game that it would've been nice to have a healthy Race Thompson as a big body to help with Zion. Also Davis will be needed to bang with Bolden and Fitzner will be needed to get Bolden away from the rim.
  25. He is. I’ve heard he is up to 6’0 or 6’1. I’ll update his actual height on Tuesday when I go to scout their game against Monroe Central. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app
