Trish Posted January 10, 2018 Author Posted January 10, 2018 Well we have Davis back for next year now Quote
WayneFleekHoosier Posted January 10, 2018 Posted January 10, 2018 Indiana announces De'Ron Davis will miss the remainder of the season after undergoing surgery today to repair a torn achilles tendon. #iubbPer Mike MillerDan Dakich suggested this was the injury. Bummer for DD but totally expected. Really hate seeing these kids have so many serious injuries. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app WayneFleekHoosier 1 Quote

Bailey7878 Posted January 10, 2018 Posted January 10, 2018 Wow Morgan starting center for rest of season. Yep and we gotts pray he stays healthy or we are in deep trouble. Really wish we had gotten a grad transfer big man.Sent from my SM-J700T using Tapatalk HinnyHoosier 1 Quote
Magnanimous Posted January 10, 2018 Posted January 10, 2018 Tough break for Davis. Hope he comes back strong next year. Now it's time for Justin Smith to step up like he did in Minnesota, and for Archie to make the necessary adjustments for the rest of the season. IUsafety and Class of '66 Old Fart 2 Quote
rebelhoosier848891 Posted January 10, 2018 Posted January 10, 2018 Loose Lips Dakich already told us this several days ago! I’ll bet the staff is hesitant to tell him much in the future because he just can’t keep his mouth shut. Anyway, I hate this for DeRon. I hope he comes back healed and hungry next year!

This type of thing could be a catalyst for him to re-think his IU career. Pure speculation, but I doubt his first 2 years have gone at all like he thought they would and the people that recruited him are gone. Quote

Doesn't seem like the best fit for archies system though. He wasn't for crean either. Sent from my SM-J700T using Tapatalk Quote
dbmhoosier Posted January 10, 2018 Posted January 10, 2018 I can't see him transferring as he's already 21 I believe. That would make him 23 at the start of his junior year if he transferred. Quote
Class of '66 Old Fart Posted January 10, 2018 Posted January 10, 2018 Conditioning seems to be a recurring issue for Davis and how will that play into his recovery and availability for next season? Quote

Tom White Posted January 10, 2018 Posted January 10, 2018 I wonder if there are any big guys from the football team who played basketball in high school? Might be able to get a bit of help depth-wise there? Quote
Old Friend Posted January 10, 2018 Posted January 10, 2018 Indiana plays better without him; at least recently. He looked out of shape the last few weeks, or at least not as "in shape" as he was earlier in the year; and his effort/statistics certainly faded. Was also not a high-minutes guy for us, and played more than 20 just once since December 9th. He played okay against Iowa and Louisville; but after that, scored 2, 7, 9, 9, and 2 against pretty inferior competition. Generally shot a good %, but started out the season taking 7-8 shots a game, took just 4-5 in the last games he played. He was dropping off significantly; and other than depth, I don't think we lose much without him. He needs to work a heck of a lot harder on his game and on his body if he wants to contribute like a starter on a good team. Class of '66 Old Fart and MoyeNeeded 2 Quote

Pure speculation, but I doubt his first 2 years have gone at all like he thought they would and the people that recruited him are gone.I'm sure he's not satisfied with his first two years. I really hope he comes back, and I bet he does. Good luck with your rehab De'Ron, come back angry! Stromboli and IUsafety 2 Quote
