Had us losing this one and Nebraska is solid imo. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app I just don’t see Nebraska as anything more than average. They will finish middle of the pack. I don’t care how many points we lost by - it can’t happen at AH. This isn’t Michigan. This isn’t Michigan State. This isn’t Ohio State. This isn’t Maryland. Hell this isn’t a couple others. This is Tim Myles and Nebraska at home. Zero excuses. yogisballin 1 Quote
Bailey7878 Posted January 15, 2019 Posted January 15, 2019 I'm going to bed, I'm way too worked up. To those of you that called names to those of us that disliked the Mid Major Miller hire, you need to look in the mirror. Perhaps you don't understand basketball the way you think you do. Mid Major Miller is a massive disaster so far. Yes, he has the recruits from the zip codes you prefer, but the results on the court are garbage. Absolute garbage. His brother went 16-15 at arizona the first year. Same records i think. The next season he went 30-8. Just saying.Sent from my SM-J700T using Tapatalk Quote

KzooHoosier82 Posted January 15, 2019 Posted January 15, 2019 This loss is on Archie. He needs to get his sh*t together and stop getting out coached night in and night out. If the problem is the players not being coachable or buying into his system then sit them until they do. But my guess is he needs to toss his “system” and start over. The half court sets are as bad as I’ve ever seen at this level. Nothing he designs creates open shots which leads to one on one play with everyone else being out of position. On defense we’re helping far too much and getting out of position to box out the off man and get rebounds. Maedhros, 8bucks and Josh 3 Quote
cleeter Posted January 15, 2019 Posted January 15, 2019 Just a random though. From the “offense” that Archie wants to run, it seems to me it would require shooters to hit buckets and space the floor to open up for drives. Without shooter, those gaps don’t open. We don’t have anyone who can driver besides Romeo and maybe Rob. We have zero shooters who can shoot consistently. Most of the players playing are still Crean players. I’m not happy about this performance since Archie has shown up, but until he gets a full class (healthy class) I’m not losing faith in him. Hard to watch yes, frustrating yes, below expectations for sure but I’m not losing hope. Especially not this soon. If we have Rob, Keion, TJD, Hunter, Race, Clifton, Forrester, Al, Smith, Damezi and other players and we still don’t win, then I’ll start wondering if Archie was right or not.

I hate for players to leave and transfer but I think for both IU and themselves DeRon and Green are better off transferring at end of the year. DeRon could get playing time closer to home and Green could take his experience elsewhere. I think IU could use those scholarships on senior transfer guards that could shoot. Maybe St. Mary's has another role player they don't need. Quote

His entire system gives up rebounds it’s part of the philosophy but that doesn’t work at this level. Quote

Getting run out of the gym by freaking Nebraska in year 2. Going to see some empty balconies from here on out. Yeah, it's real embarrassing getting ran out of our gym by a tourney team with an abundance of jr/sr to carry them against a 2nd yr coach with not much left over talent from the previous staff, not to mention the plague of injuries suffered. So, if you guys are serious about being done with them, that is fine with me. No need for all of the whining here. It's truly amazing to me that after long discussions here about the other top teams in our conference (MSU, Mich) and the results of Izzo and JohnB in their early first few seasons, so many are dead set on CAM being a bad hire without giving him the time that it takes to build something. Instant gratification. Doesn't bother me one bit if we lighten the load of mass negativity that we see on this forum everyday. Doesn't have to be all sunshine and lollipops but jeez!

IUHoosier5 Posted January 15, 2019 Posted January 15, 2019 That was the worst iu game I’ve ever been to, and I’ve been going to games for 22 years. Archie better start coaching his tail off or AH is going to be empty quickly Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners Quote

Alford Bailey Posted January 15, 2019 Posted January 15, 2019 We shouldnt be too surprised. The non con gave us many hints. Injuries play a part but we really arent any better than last year if we didnt add Romeo. WayneFleekHoosier 1 Quote

Unless we throw it into the post to Morgan or let Romeo do something in isolation, we generally don't score. That's absolutely partly Archie's fault. thebigweave 1 Quote
