Man I hate losing, but it seemed that something was starting to click over the last 10 mins of the game. Not sure what yet, but kind of seemed like they were starting to get comfortable playing with each other for the first time in awhile. Maybe we are starting to turn the corner, possibly, there was definitely more energy in this game except for the end of the first half. One thing that still bugs me is an opposing player out of nowhere shoots lights out from 3! And it wasn’t just lack of defense, there were more than a few contested shots, smh!

I just don't get how Romeo can be so bad at shooting 3s.

I was so high on him because I thought we finally had a guy to stretch the defense, but he can't hit anything out there.

 

This will get laughed at. But this year’s team might be better with James Blackmon instead of Romeo based on their skill set. And yes, I remember how poorly JB was on the defensive end. But you could count on him for 3-4 threes a game.

Welp that blows.

Thoughts beyond that:

- When are we going to see the Romeo domination game?
- Race is getting better!
- Phin is going to be the anchor for Archie and Indiana basketball for three more years
- Evan found the hoop!

Seriously, I don't know what your problem is.  An 18 year kid stays home for once, leads us in scoring as a freaking freshman and is getting 5 1/2 boards to boot and all you do is whine about him.

I got rooked into joining an IU basketball page on Facebook. Someone just wrote a Dear Fred Glass, you suck kinda post. 

But he went on to say we had Donovan, but Fred was too cheap to pony up for his assistants. Anybody ever hear anything like that?

For one, I'm not convinced he would've been the right person for us. For two, I have a hard time believing at this point in his career, he'd have any interest in going back to a college program.

That’s hardly all I do. But kid is too passive. People are feeling bad for him for choosing us but his play is a big part of our struggles
