Sorry, Robbie. Justin is not a pro. He is a great athlete, but he has very limited basketball skills. Would be a great track athlete or maybe a football player, but the understanding of the game of basketball and the skills just aren't there. ... What good is having a 48-inch vertical when you can't make a layup?

Bendu yeaney transferring - Again
LamarCheeks replied to Hoosierfan31's topic in Indiana Women's Basketball
She's played in six games this season. For some reason, I thought it was more. ... Does that mean she can get this season back? Or half of it? Maybe if she transfers now, she'll have a 1 1/2 years of eligibility remaining? ... Not sure of the exact rules, but if she won't have more than a year remaining, what's the point in announcing this now? -

Odd timing -- there's still much of the season to be played. Has she left the team? She played 14 minutes at Maryland, but hasn't played since. For the season, she'd been playing 12.5 minutes a game. Did Moren & Co. decide to shut her down the rest of the way? Again, the timing seems strange. Wonder why she didn't wait till the end of the season to announce this? -
Niners are saying Tevin is good to go for Sunday. How effective will he be? Who knows?

IUWBB vs Wisconsin - 1/30/20 @ 7:00

Don't know if a replay is available, but here is a highlights package. I didn't see the game, either -- didn't realize we were down 18-2. That's a helluva comeback. Shouldn't have gotten that far down in the first place, but that's impressive nonetheless. -

Not watching the game -- don't have BTN+ -- but just checked the score: How in the hell are we in OT with a 10-10 squad? This team needs to decide if it wants to be elite or not? If you want to be elite, you need to be beating times like Wisconsin by 15-20 points. And not losing in OT to Iowa and Northwestern. -

Like many others, I'm not feeling too good about this after Wednesday's debacle. I don't think we get a win, but the question is this: Do we go down fighting, or do we quit like we did at Maryland and PSU? I'm stuck in the middle. OSU 73 IU 66 -
I just cannot figure out what the hell happened with Damezi. I saw a couple of his school games (not in person, but on a video stream) and while I didn't think he'd be a superstar, I thought he could contribute. And as this video shows (granted, it's set up to accentuate the positive), he at one time could shoot the ball. I saw him tonight take a 3 from the just beyond the top of the key -- it wasn't wide-open, but he wasn't necessarily under heavy duress -- and he totally clanked it. Didn't even hit the rim. You almost have to try to do that. How can you shoot a head-on 3 pointer and not hit the rim? I just don't get it. Earlier this season, he knocked down a couple 3s and it gave me hope that he had found his stroke. But since then, to quote the ultra-obnoxious Dickie V: "It's been Brick City, baybee!" ... I don't think at this point, he could make a 2-footer standing all alone under the basket. I am totally perplexed.

This is starting to remind me of the game at Maryland -- we've just given up. Pretty shameful performance.

Oh Damezi -- you damn near broke the backboard on that one.
