Getting a chance to spend the evening with Archie and Tom tonight at Huber's down here in SouInd. Always a fun evening.

Annual stop by the BB and FB coaches. Like a little town hall meeting.

Never heard him use injuries as an excuse.

[HinnyHoosier]

Archie doesn’t sound too optimistic about Hunter.

If we go into the season with 10 guys on Scholly, that is a freaking joke. And he’ll use that as an excuse.

Is he supposed to lie and claim it an advantage? Chill on the accusations.

I don’t think he’d get a total pass because he would only have 10 scholarship players. That’s not on me to decide what others should think just my thoughts.

For me personally, I need to see where this is headed this upcoming season to continue to support him. There are plenty of things I like and things I think he sees that need to be corrected but this season they need to be corrected.

If we have 10 guys getting rotation and are engaged in each game that is a good thing.  So some of you want 2 guys at the end of the bench not engaged and thinking about which schools to transfer to the following year?

If a team is playing 11-12 guys a night that tells you 3-4 of them aren't producing.

No we want two guys on the bench practicing and learning the system so they can contribute a year or two down the line. 

Because 10 rotation guys next year means 8 or fewer that know the system the year after. 

[el drado]

Wait, wait, wait.....so we want to get commitments from 4* and 5* guys who have the foresight that sitting on the bench for a year is in their best interest and the best interest of a program that is bigger than one individual?

This is my problem with this fanbase, we want it all, we want an older mature team full of 5* talents who are from Indiana and commit on Archie's command.  Those days are unrealistic.  

EDIT** e.g. Damezi, he needs a year or two more....i see a lot of people questioning whether he can play though

What’s the logical fallacy where you make up some ridiculous bs that nobody said and then refute that(poorly as you did)

Yep, completely agree with this. It’s year 3. This is his roster. The seniors have been in it long enough and everyone else came in as freshmen under Archie or was recruited by him. We can debate whether or not the Juniors would be here without him but this is their 3rd year. We have to win.

I love that we chose Anderson over Aaron Henry. That was brilliant.

Also completely untrue. Anderson chose us first. I liked Henry more at the time as well cause I saw Damezi play a couple times and wasn’t impressed, but you can’t turn an in-state 4 start player away because another player might want to commit

[Honkyman]

Aaron Henry had planned on choosing IU until Jerome Hunter announced he had decided to go to IU. Damezi Anderson had nothing to do with Henry's decision.

If you weren’t impressed. Then why was Archie? Coaches get paid Millions to find the answers. He’s a really good guy but he is way in over his head. He wasn’t ready for this step up.

Honestly, did you watch his Dayton teams?  I salivated over that type of ball being played.

And I don’t think anyone would have had Henry over Hunter in high school.

Sounds like Aaron Henry hit the lottery.

And factually, Henry didn't even have an IU (or Michigan State) offer when Anderson signed.
