IUBB vs Central Arkansas - 12/19 @ 7:00

[Class of '66 Old Fart 87,819]

 

Our 9-2 Hoosiers take on the Central Arkansas Bears (4-6) and there's no good reason this game isn't over early and collectively we don't have to sweat bullets.  Also, we need a game that gets Anderson, Forrester and Moore some solid minutes of action.  The Ken Pomeroy projection is Indiana by 22 with a 98 percent chance of victory for the Hoosiers. The Sagarin ratings project Indiana to win by 26.

We should not have a competitive game till Jan 6th. I think all of our hearts could use the rest.

IDK, it is kind of exciting and exhilarating to go to the last possession... stay focused in.... literally JUMP off the couch and go ballistic at the end.... I will take those all season long as long as we continue to come out on the good side!

Was just perusing their roster/stats. Love the name Thatch Unruh. Don’t know why, but love it. Want to see about a 40 pt win despite a career high from that kid.

I still have bad memories of a losing because some random player went off against us.  I'd rather not risk that.

I recorded the game, knew what happened at the end and I still jumped out of my seat and yelled when Rob dropped the shot.

How about Eastern Washington. Didn’t they have a dude or 2 go off at Assembly Hall.

They had 3 dudes score over 20 but you are probably thinking of Harvey. I think he ended up leaving for the nba early

IndianaHQ - Race Thompson (@RaceThompson1) here in Assembly Hall with the players during warm ups. He is in street clothes and not on the court. Still, this is a good sign as he was not even able to join the team in earlier games immediately after his concussion.

Osterman - He has been with the team off and on. Without wanting to be an armchair doctor, concussion treatment sometimes requires light and noise discipline, and travel is tougher. As for long-term question, that's undetermined at this point.

I want to see a clean game; low turnovers, good rebounding, and good free throw shooting. These are the things we’ll need to get better at to be top 20/ 4 seed or better type team.

Watching the Archie interview on BTN it’s good to see Hunter shooting the ball

I hope you're right.  I would really like to see them play.  

I know the minutes Moore has played are limited.  I also know reserves often play a different type of game and often against different competition (although, I'm not sure how much of Moore's time has been against anything less than the remainder of the team...albeit, some of it has), but regardless of all that, Moore leads the team in Player Efficiency Rating (for what that's worth) at 33.7.

Here is the current leader board, including Moore with starters and those with regular minutes.

Moore 33.7

Morgan 29.8

Langford 21.2

Davis 18.5

Fitzner 17.2

Phinisee 13.1

Smith 11.1

Durham 10.4

Green 9.9

McRoberts 7.7
