Good

1) I agree. They're not that bad but it's also a bit early to go by KenPom. 2) Why are you comparing this team to Crean's first two years? Both of those teams were terrible so them losing to bad teams wasn't surprising. To me it seems like it would be to point out when teams that were actually good struggled or lost against bad teams early in the year.

psssh, what does Calbert Cheaney know? He only has the most points scored in B1G history while playing under one of the best coaches ever, spent a over a decade playing in the NBA, has been an assistance coach at both the NBA and NCAA levels, and is currently part of the staff that sees the players practice every day. So why should we listen to what he says? As an anonymous poster on the internet who never even played on my HS team, I think we should ignore what he says and instead freak out after 2 games.

I saw the women's soccer team lost to a U15 boys team. I don't know about the basketball team.

I have seen fans gush over him. I haven't seen anyone compare him to IT or even put him in the same stratosphere as IT. If you had said Alford (he was not a PG and I haven't seen that comparison, but whatever), Hulls, Coverdale, or a bunch of other guys I wouldn't have even said anything but you went all the way up to IT. When teams are underperforming, fans always look to the bench and cry for some of them to get more PT and/or start. In football, that is often the QB position and for basketball it's often its version of the QB which is, of course, the PG. Of of the reasons people like him is because he hustles. The team seems to be lacking some of that so far this year.

Hyperbole much? I don't see anyone saying that Cupps is the next coming of Isiah. Nor have I seen that for any other white kid. It's also kind of weird thing to say since Isiah is black. Please show me where anyone is comparing him to one of the best Hoosiers ever and an NBA Hall of Famer?

That's what is common of all the schools on there: they try. IU doesn't so I'm still skeptical they'll fire Allen after the season to not just join that list but jump in at 3rd. Allen needs to go but I guess we'll see if IU actually cans him.

I think you forgot about the perimeter defense.

It's true though. Serious issues.

Yeah, low volume. They shot decent percentage from there but just didn't take many.

IU is going to win. The reason with was so close was due to 2 things: turnovers and 3-point defense. Edit: also lack of rebounding vs an undersized team.

Can none of the players tell the difference between white and black? They keep throwing it directly to Army.

This team has terrible perimeter defense and then if the the shot misses they're also bad at rebounding. That's not a good combination.

This is only the second game and it's already a long season. They look really bad this game.

IU is making Army look underrated. They aren't.

I'm shocked. Shocked!

And P5 college talent

This loss maybe? Hopefully?

I doubt Billy Donovan ever comes back to college.

As far as I know, IU was never able to get the visit scheduled. They wanted him but he didn't seem to reciprocate that interest.

What certainly won't hurt is being reminded of IU every day just by seeing McNeeley every day.

https://swimswam.com/ahmed-hafnaoui-training-with-tst-in-california-indiana-future-unclear/ It would suck if he doesn't stay at IU. He's done well so far after a year of training at IU so this is kind of surprising.

Not surprising since he only hit 2 3-pointers and 15 2-pointers (which obviously include layups and dunks) all last season. That's not very many makes in which to hit 2 in a row.

I believe he's said he wants to sign during the early signing period so he could announce a school any day within the next week. She is probably there for when that happens. He didn't announce/sign yesterday but she could've come there "early" to support his good friend Liam McNeeley. Queen stayed with the McNeeleys one summer so he's obviously close with that family so it would make sense for McNeeley to also be close to the Queens.

I'm glad he's signed but that video doesn't work for me.
