    Yep. That’ll get the feds attention. Bound to happen with the ubiquitousness of sports gambling now, especially with college kids. Some people are going to learn a lesson the hard way.

    I wouldn’t be surprised if we pound it down low to Reneau and Ballo to get them the touches they didn’t get the last game.

    And apparently they did. I wouldn’t know as I fell asleep before the game after staying up for the Purdue game last night. I’m not looking forward to IU’s 9pm games.

    Who were both pretty bad last night. Painter did him no favors. He was struggling with all that high pressure and painter insisted on that ball screens at the top which just brought an extra defender. About the worst tactic you could employ, imo. They’ll be fine in the B1G because few teams can bring that type of ball pressure although I’d love to see us try by going small. Let Ballo mop up Berg and Reneau dominate TKR.

    Purdue having trouble stay in front of Marquette, and Marquette is doing a good job of bothering smith often with a trap or hard hedge out on the ball screens up top.

    I can’t remember a long time assistant taking over the reigns from a great coach and completely abandoning the style of play like Gard has and still be successful. He’s not as successful as Bo but he’s got his own thing going on which seems to be working.

    The SEC and ESPN have a self serving relationship. IU needs to win Sat or keep it close.

    Interesting. I feel like I saw way more than 12 post entries (completed or attempted). With that said I also see more ball screens to start possessions and the small ball lineups look to have a four out look that was rarer in the past. Tough to say with only one real game under our belt but I don’t see us straying from our old offense as much as some. For example, we still only had 17 attempts from 3, which is closer to our nearly last place average last year than an average D1 team. Seemed like a lot of the difference yesterday was how much we got out in transition. That’s a good thing too, though.

    Yale played Purdue fairly tough. They have some shooters

    Today’s game was fun. Looking at Alabama’s and Purdues schedule and I wish we had more than that

    I mean… the impressive part is the talent on this team.

    South Carolina is probably going to be decent. Still…this could’ve been a blowout. Good win but a so-so finish.

    Agree. I like the kid but we should finish as strong as possible

    Yea.. but I have given up on our defense a long time ago.

    Simply a guess but cupps leal and hatton are only getting situational mins in competitive games

    He’s struggling but those are wide open. When those start to go down that’s a tough lineup to guard

    Rice gallo Tucker Goode reneau is an interesting lineup. 3 bench players but lots of offensive potential.

    Immediately after I posted that woody finished the half this way. Good to see.

    Not going to change. It’s Woodys defense he’s used every game since he’s been here.

    For as much as we’ve tried small ball I think we’ll eventually have to have a Galloway in for one of Ballo/reneau and truly have our best five on the court at once.
