    Point Guard Play: 2021-22

    If that ever happens at Assembly Hall, I can see either him or Dolson address on the PA. Unfortunately, this was in Indy and we don’t have control of the PA but it could have been Purdue or ND fans

    Point Guard Play: 2021-22

    100% agree. If I was a recruit in the stands watching that game, I would not want to go to that school. I do think we haven’t consistently won for so long, the negativity has now anchored into the fans during games.

    Point Guard Play: 2021-22

    I thought Phinesee played his best game of the year and better than any last year. Not to mention, he hit a couple timely 3’s, which could boost his confidence! I think you writing him off like that is too bad. I think Phinesee is going to keep improving and prove all the fanbase wrong! GO HOOSIERS!!!

    Point Guard Play: 2021-22

    But they both have to knock down 3’s consistently for that to happen.
  5. I really don’t either. I thought we were supposed to have more motion in our offense but there seems to be a lot of standing around until the PG initiates the offense. I think CMW maybe trying to keep it basic because playing motion is more complex than we think and most of these players aren’t used to motion. He wants to play everything through Trayce & Race
  6. I agree with this too! This team is still a work in progress and will continue to improve throughout the year. A far cry change than the teams digression during our last 2 coaches we had. We all just have to be a little patient throughout the season
  7. I think the erratic behavior starts with X and if RP can start taking positive strides like he did today, Phinesee will start and X will come off the bench. If things don’t improve with him over the next several games, Woodson will start to loose his patience with X and he will make the change to go with RP.

    I think Race will come back and perhaps X. Doesn’t Kopp and Stewart have one more year too

    I want CMW to keep trying to develop his bench ; however, this seems like something the he should try in these last 3 non conference games. I 100% agree!

    True, but the majority of our have their ups and downs too! For instance Kopp & Stewart.

    This is exactly what I am talking about and a game like this can build towards that! Come on Kaulie give props to a part of his progression!

    It’s the confidence thing that I’m talking about. It doesn’t matter the competition, a game like this can develop confidence. We’ll see how things progress over the next few games. That’s what I’m talking about

    Maybe not, but it can be a confidence builder. The next few games could tell a lot. Sometimes it doesn’t take much to get a players confidence back and a game like this could be the first step towards that!

    IUBB vs Merrimack - 12/12/21 @ Noon on BTN

    I think with JG’s performance today, which hopefully is confidence builder, our bench may start becoming an asset that we thought it could be. If JG and TB can contribute 12-16 points each game combined and RP can start giving us what he did today plus hitting an occasional shot, our bench will become an asset! These next few games will tells us a lot!

    IUBB vs Merrimack - 12/12/21 @ Noon on BTN

    No he did not and that was a big call against us!

    IUBB vs Merrimack - 12/12/21 @ Noon on BTN

    He’s been soft the last few games. I think it started when he had that almost knee injury

    And then some!!! We got a double double but what Woodson hopefully got is JG’s confidence back!

    It’s his team and we can question it and for good reason but I am confident there is a method to his madness. In CMW I trust!

    Nice win and they bench did their job! They extended the lead which is what CMW was trying to get done in todays game. Mission accomplished and a nice bounce back win! A couple other things of note: 1) This team is slowly gaining some mental toughness 2) JG, RP, and TB all played well off the bench. Even Leal played decent! 3) Lander sits behind RP for a reason
  21. IUFAN1976

    IUBB vs Merrimack - 12/12/21 @ Noon on BTN

    And he took responsibility for that, but this is the type of game he should be able to do that in and it worked! JG, RP, TB has all played well and gained confidence. Leal hasn’t looked bad either
  22. IUFAN1976

    IUBB vs Merrimack - 12/12/21 @ Noon on BTN

    He knows that, but he is trying to develop his bench with the anticipation that a couple of those players might be counted on to finish close games, plus if team has a lead he doesn’t want any drop off.

    IUBB vs Merrimack - 12/12/21 @ Noon on BTN

    I hate to say it, but our offense has looked better with Phinesee at the point than Johnson. If only he can start knocking down the 3 ball. It would be nice if CMW would give him the start in the 2nd half, but we know that won’t happen
