They weren’t much different from us on Kenpom. His efficiency should’ve been a question mark though

Fisch said it’s because they thought he was just the towel boy earlier

Carlyle plays hard on D and can handle the rock a little. On nights where MM can’t shoot, that is enough to get Carlyle some run. Sadly

Carlyle to Galloway to Goode for 3. best play of the year

Been saying it about Galloway for three years. Hard to believe he’s a coach’s kid.

Defense seems a little more energetic

Carlyle has been awful but still competes on D

I can’t decide which I loathe more: 3 point extravaganza for the opposing team Woody D or Layup line Woody D

People are confusing without him vs without him and Ballo in at the same time.

Goode!

True, but what else can you do besides let shooters shoot? Wouldn’t mind seeing leal steal some mins tho

That’s just so he can see the 3 other tvs he brought with him.

If his gf/wife/sister doesn’t get a scholarship offer, I don’t even know what we’re doing here.

UCLA is up that way-ish but it must not have been close enough to affect the game last night. USC isn’t affected (I don’t think…been a while) since they’re down in the city/hood. Very bad situation though.

I wouldn’t think so since this is his fifth year and he’s a RS senior. But with the NCAA who even knows. They’re even talking about giving 5 years to everyone.

Yep. He was the big and obvious one. Talk at the time was we wanted him but he wanted to handle the ball more, right? I don’t see that when I watch Xavier but he is really good. He would’ve been perfect as our second guard. I wonder if the staff didn’t pursue him or botched it and then leaked that rumor. Strange he wasn’t a top target.

It could be luck or it could be May has an eye for finding and developing big men. This is Goldins 4th year with him.

They only scored 5 pts in the first ten minutes and had like 14 at half. They looked lost on offense.

Good win in the conf. Have to think going west to Oregon and UCLA are going to be two of the tougher road trips.

A game that wouldn’t exist without uclas addition but a 10 o’clock start time is probably a non starter for me. I’m curious how this ratings shake out.

It’s one of those guys. Whichever one said he had relatives in Indiana and liked IU basketball on one of the broadcasts. Maybe two years ago now. Both of those guys are probably better than Hummel and Bardo at this point.

Can’t believe Hummel and Bardo are our two main options. I wish we could get that other big goofy white guy (sorry, forgetting his name…maybe played at Iowa) that actually likes IU.

Anyone in his position reading letters from pissed off fans is just wallowing in their own pity, looking for sympathy. Any respectable coach would just have their secretary dump them in the garbage. His agent and supporters were all too happy to plead to the press to try and curry sympathy and deflect from Davis’s own missteps. He was in way over his head and I have some appreciation for that fact which is why he wasn’t able to successfully navigate fairly easy and common obstacles. But as the wise poet Coughlin once said, “all things end badly, or else they wouldn’t end.”

Not really. He was welcomed back warmly. He was treated like any other failure coach prone to a series of foot-shooting gaffes. The one difference being back then certain standards still seem to exist among most of the fan base and we felt entitled to return to greatness sooner rather than later.
