The point is saying these are not archies guys is absurb. He has coached them for two years and they have played for no other coach. I mean the could of left at anytime but choose to stay. They never played one second under crean.

I think what they really mean is, some of the guys don’t fit what Archie wants to do. They have the wrong skill sets. 

Maybe they just haven’t developed fast enough. Who knows.

Why? If they know they aren’t pro players and they are halfway or closer to a degree. Get your degree then grad transfer.

Then sit on the bench for two more years. I can think of two guys right now who will not play next year and will ride the pine. Be interesting to see what they do in the next month or so.

You can say you dont fit my system. They can take a hint. Four alabama players are already transferring due to the change. Its not uncommon.

That if a horrible comparison. You're comparing kids leaving a program with nothing set in place right now going forward and comparing it to a program with a coach in place. Not even close to the same situation

The only way I don’t see transfers is if we need kids to stay for APR reasons. I’m not sure where that stands and if kids leave if it drops our score to low.

They have a new coach.

Well if we see no transfers and bring in no shooters it may be a long season.

After next year, and I hope that is a Tournament run and a 22-8 record.....we have to stop with "these aren't Archies players" "these players don't fit his system" blah blah blah.   I think the Team is in the exact same position it was when we fired Crean, after two years. If I hired a Sales guy and his sales were the same after two years...buh bye.   Archie isn't running some special system that takes three years and 300 classroom hours to learn.  Most teams basically run all the same stuff.  Players need to learn to play with each other AND anticipate each other.  The Coaches job is to find the line up that does that the best and to find substitution patterns that don't kill the team.

 

Archie didn't inherit a program that was awful, Crean did.  I'm not a big fan of Crean's, especially his in game decisions.  BUT..I'm a huge fan of Creans ability to spot potential talent and then to develop it.  I'm not seeing any of that.  I actually thought DeRon looked much better this year than last, other than that...they were all roughly the same players.

 

This talk of "rebuild" is the biggest pile of participation trophy horse turds that I've ever seen. We just aren't getting better.   I'm not saying Archie is the problem, but, he has to be the solution.  Next year he will be Coaching for his job.  I really don't want Glass making another hiring decision (my opinion)...Archie won't survive missing the Tournament next year...take that to the bank ..... Glass insulted the BOT when he said "rebuild"...I should say I know he insulted at least one because that person told me.."Yeah..that was insulting..he thinks we are f'ing morons". (maybe the second time I've heard him swear, the first time was talking to him about the Watford shot)

 

Lot's of pressure next year....I honestly hope Archie does it and makes many of us eat crow.  Go Hoosiers!

I have little reason to believe next year will be any better. This program is stuck in mediocrity absent major structural changes.
Come on drink the kool aid. Things will be kust fine

I don’t agree with that. Our shooting woes are in large part bc 2 of the highest volume shooters, Romeo and Morgan, were 2 of the worst % shooters. Phinisee, Durham, and Green are all adequate shooters. Hunter can shoot it from deep, and I’m confident he will play. Once the game slows down for Damezi, he will be a 40% plus shooter.

Just a friendly reminder that I’m not going to make any serious judgements until year four. Enjoy your wallowing!

Heard the same nonsense about Crean warning signs are warnings regardless when they happen
