    IUBB vs Army - Sunday, 11.12.23 @ 7:00 on BTN

    This is the 2nd time in as many years where we've tried the "2 bigs and a 4 that wants to be a 3" lineup. It flat out doesn't work. Perimeter defense gets torched and there's not enough ball-handling and quickness on offense. Need to change the starting 5 sooner than later.

    I'm already there. Sit anyone that isn't XJ.

    This starting lineup isn't working. Gonna need to shake things up eventually.

    Lol at methodically running your offense down 20 with 35 seconds to go. Can we just cut over already?

    IUBB vs Marian (exhib) Friday, 11.03.23 @ 6:30 on BTN+

    Yes, 4 times early in the year

    I like Walker a lot. Just makes good basketball plays and has the length and athleticism off the bench we have really needed in recent years.

    Mgbako and Ware are going to be special

    Marian 32 points with 9 made 3's. Not ideal. Given up quite a few offensive boards as well. Mgbako looks like the real deal. Reneau noticeably improved. Continue to be pleasantly surprised with Walker.

    Reneau with 2 made 3's that have both looked pure.

    29-18 IU I think Marian is at 6 threes? Don't think they've scored any other way yet.

    I could do without listening to the term "glass cleaner" for the next 2 hours

    (2024) - Liam McNeeley to UConn

    Newell is so impressive. Bit of a slow start for Liam so far but you can tell he brings a little Schifino to the court in how he moves. Smooth operator and knows how to make the right play.

    So..assuming Love is still a no-go? Fewer shots (and $) for him now than last time around.
  14. Schifino IMO. Both are/were critically important to the next season's success as well as the trajectory/momentum of the program. A difference of ~10 spots in the rankings is meaningless.
  15. Yep. You get 4 maybe 5 draft picks over the course of 2 years and all the sudden recruiting hurdles start looking a little smaller against schools like Kansas, Duke, and Kentucky. This recruitment is huge for momentum in several ways.

    Very intrigued by Nembhard if he has interest in being closer to his brother. I don't mind his lack of size if you're trying to bring in Knecht, Ledlum, and Ware.

    Add Battle to this as a 5th and that's my dream scenario. No weaknesses on that team.

    When is the last time no 1 seeds made the Elite 8?

    The Anti-Painter.
  20. Have to get this guy. Good momentum in the program right now and he keeps us on the ascent.
  21. Rebounding is the biggest issue right now. Way too many second chances for them.

    Non-IU NCAA TOURNAMENT GAMES

    Taking a break from laughing at PU, this Drake team looks legit. They have the makings of a 12-seed Cinderella.

    I can't stop laughing at Edey screaming every single time after he scores. His defender is like 6'3.

    I would agree with that. I don't like the 5 attempts per game at that %. On the flip side, the guy was 56% from inside the arc on 10 attempts. Question is, can the staff put him in a position to do what he does well and limit the low efficiency shots? I think they could.
