    Hmm, seems like we once had a guy who did that, can’t remember his name, reminded me of a cartoon - something like Yogi?

    8 assists to 4 TO’s well into the 2nd. This is the team we wanted to see. Rice leading the group, Bako continuing his excellent shooting, Carlyle break out game, all against a strong defensive team

    Looking for more of that Princeton offense, get out in transition, spread to the wings, open the lanes

    SC defense is solid (32nd in opponent EF%), our O needs to show up well, neither team shoots from outside well (except Bako has been on fire - hope that continues), could be a battle inside Ballo vs. Murray-Boyles. Rice needs to take care of the ball and assist well against this team, can't start out sloppy like last game, will need to play under control. I like IU to cover, but think we need to be a lot more focused early, don't come in sloppy or we'll be playing from behind.

    IUWBB @ Butler - Wednesday, 11.13.24 @ 7:00

    Worth the read. It's absolutely absurd to be knee-jerk asserting the Women's program should be considering a change. A decade of rapid growth and turning IU into one of the contending programs from rock bottom, we lose Mak and the team struggles early in one season and people start calling for a coaching change? Ridiculous. Moren is an exceptional coach and program builder, patience is most definitely an important trait. The comparison to IU baseball and the couple of transition years after Schwarber is solid. Moren took over at IU in 2014 and went 15-16. From 2015 to date every season at least 20 W's, the last 4 a reg season championship, 4 NCAA tourneys including 2 SW16's and an EE, and people talk coaching change?? It's her first transition year in 10 years. Get a grip.

    Yeah saw this and thanks for posting -- this goes to the several posts that we're not doing anything different, we are, as well as at least some units running one big. Offense still looks like a project in the works, but we are also creating more looks for outside shots (and Bako is looking really good so far.)

    Agree, and while I tend to think at this point that Gallo, also a strong defender/on-ball defender and imo a better offensive player, could be more effective than Carlyle in the starting unit, because Gallo's our primary facilitator off the bench that move is starting to make better sense to me.

    Adam Howard No Longer On Staff

    No, it doesn't. At some point maybe acknowledge that here @ap2345knows what he's talking about. Ap2345 just told you he's worked for multiple HCs. Howard going to the other assistant/staffers to try and convince Woodson that they needed to change their approach is exactly what an assistant coach is supposed to do (and does) when there's disagreement -- provide a coaching group approach / opinion as to a direction to take, for further disussion. They aren't lap dogs, and that obviously isn't "talking s***" -- All you're doing is putting blatant spin on a coaching situation of which you know nothing out of some blind sense of loyalty.

    Don’t like how they played - were coached in the first half, awful, but — at end of the first posted second half plan should be ti cut TO’s in half and attack— that’s what happened they cut TO’s to 4 and attacked and beat the game line. Not really concerned by the slow start generally. Coaching was bad but the team woke up — that’s often college ball. Same guys played really well against UT. We’ll see how they do next game

    Only looking at box score but from that looks like approach should be cut the TO's in half (8 at the half...) and turn it way up. Hustle beats talent when talent doesn't hustle
