Alford Bailey Posted February 12, 2017 Posted February 12, 2017 I said a while back I didnt think we would beat another good team. That didnt include Michigan. We seriously may not win another game this season. 4-5 on the road. ALASKA HOOSIER 1 Quote
Class of '66 Old Fart Posted February 12, 2017 Author Posted February 12, 2017 Post-game: Crean: "Thomas Bryant is working tail off to become a leader of the team. He needs a little more help." WRONG! TB needs to sit and let DD play. The numbers don't lie; DD is more productive than TB. Hoosierfan2017, HoosierAloha, ALASKA HOOSIER and 1 other 4 Quote

I definitely think year 9 is his worst coaching job. Yeah there was no excuse to be worse in Year 3 than Year 2. That's pathetic Alford Bailey 1 Quote

Bryant has been victimized by Crean's big man development for two years too though. Davis could be the same way if he was subjected to that. Alford Bailey, AZ Hoosier and ALASKA HOOSIER 3 Quote
Uspshoosier Posted February 12, 2017 Posted February 12, 2017 Over a stretch at the end of the 1st half and the beginning of the 2nd, Michigan scored 0 points in 10 trips. IU cut just 2 pts off the lead@andybottoms Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners ALASKA HOOSIER 1 Quote
hoosha61 Posted February 12, 2017 Posted February 12, 2017 Just an awful performance. With everything on the line we were beyond flat. It seems like rojo and JBJ have checked out. I've tried to be supportive of CTC, but I'm done. This is not and has not been iubb. I hope the frosh don't xfer when they can him. My lineup next time out would be DD, DG, JK, JM and TB. recker222000 and ALASKA HOOSIER 2 Quote
Trish Posted February 12, 2017 Posted February 12, 2017 This was a typical Indiana Hoosier basketball game. Offense: Relying too much on the ISO. Yes Josh got to the basket a few times, good for him. But we have a serious problem of having the ball stick outside the three point line until there is 8 seconds left on the shot clock. The ball hardly gets passed inside the post in which our freshman Davis has shown he has scored. Yet, we refuse to let him get touches consistently. Does that ring a bell? Of course it should, the same crap happened with Cody Zeller/Noah Vonleh/Thomas Bryant. Crean has this desire of his centers playing outside and driving in or shooting threes, he's had some luck of landing such players to do so but he has failed to make the acknowledment that IT DOESN'T WORK. Let the bigs play big. Next year Davis will be shooting threes and playing outside in.. just watch. Defense: We're just not a smart team on defense, maybe its the lack of leadership or IQ, but Michigan exposed us badly by spreading the floor and making us over-help on defense. Turnovers: I mean theres not much to say about this topic anymore, we know we're going to turn the ball over way too much. It's a shame we settle for this type of play. Today was basically Tom Crean's legacy at IU in a nutshell. ALASKA HOOSIER 1 Quote

Sometimes I wonder if he's even watching the same games we are. ALASKA HOOSIER 1 Quote

Today was basically Tom Crean's legacy at IU in a nutshell. A buddy today referred to the offense as 'weave and heave'. Sounds a lot like what we're seeing. The defense is porous and yeah, turnovers is an issue … maybe if we played a little faster … or, more realistically, tried to actually run an offense with set plays that involved discipline, some fundamental skills and used a little patience.

rebelhoosier848891 Posted February 13, 2017 Posted February 13, 2017 This is a low point in IU Bball history----so disappointed. Looks like the team has already settled on the NIT---sad and hard to watch right now. ALASKA HOOSIER 1 Quote

The only way I would even go to the NIT is if Crean was sent packing. Then I would be concerned we would go on a run and Glass would give a 10 year contract to the interim coach. I have no faith in Glass at this point. Let's just throw in the white towel after our first round Big tournament loss. Quote

It would be impossible to call Crean a good coach at that point. Quote
