    I have seen a lot of empty seats all around college basketball.

    To me college basketball as a whole is not as fun to watch and it is not because IU is not winning. Yes, I got to see 3 championships and numerous conference titles but I stayed during the lesser years as well. For the years my kids were at home I had to miss some games because of their activities which is part of being a parent. I never didn't watch because of how IU is playing.

    Agree there, that was my least favorite IU team to watch.

    My prediction was 73-59 so I came so close to getting it right

    Just read this thread and there are some on here that is bipolar. One minute up and the next you are down and then up again. I don't like subbing 5 at a time but they do it in the NBA all the time. The difference is that both teams are doing it in the NBA but not in college.

    Of course they are reviewing this so Duke can have a timeout

    Lineup Changes?

    Last thing I will say on this topic. I just feel that always looking at the negative in everything would be a depressing way to live. We won at home by 16 against a ranked team but some wants to look at what we did bad than what we did right. No team or players are perfect and if you are waiting for perfection you will be waiting forever. I think if you would watch the game as a fan instead of a coach it would make for a more enjoyable experience. Us old timers think we are a coach because we use to watch RMK show and that makes qualified to be a college basketball coach

    May I complain when a player gives up a sure layup to kick it out for a 3.

    Still wish teams would do a lot less dribbling and more player and ball movement by the pass. To me this is just not an entertaining style of basketball to watch.

    Again I will leave the coaching to the coaches because they know the team better. Stewart needs to work harder to get open and be ready to shoot when he gets the ball. He needs to do better at taking the ball to the basket.

    What makes you the expert and to think you know the team better than the coach is ridiculous.

    I think the problem is that a lot of fans don't watch other teams like they do IU. They see all of the IU flaws and they think that IU is the only team that has those flaws. I watch a lot college basketball and haven't found a perfect team that doesn't hav flaws. Even our 76 team averaged 16.9 turnovers a game.

    Well if you start Galloway instead of Kopp or Stewart then you would only have 1 outside shooter.

    Something must have changed because his game is not on. The game with Oak Hill is on right now.

    I haven't much of that but it is more I am not a fan of the offensive style of play. I don't like all the dribbling and ball screens. I like watching a free flowing offense with player and ball movement by the pass. I like seeing guys coming off screens off the ball.

    With today's offense it probably would. The main problem with the offense I see is that there are to much dribbling. Even when it was 45 seconds, the teams got right into their offense and took the first really good shot. Today it seems the offense spends like 15 seconds trying to get into their offense. The reputation under RMK was he demanded 4 or 5 passes before a shot is not even close to being true. They got into the offense and if it was just one pass they took the open shot

    That is the problem because me st of these players are not not Curry and never will be. The thing is that bothers me more is that offenses today don't get into their offense until 15 seconds had ran off the clock. To me it attempts to get a shot at a certain time instead of ever pass or cut trying to get a shot.

    I don't mind change if it helps the game but I don't see this style of offense helping the game.
