Most guards: “12 seconds on the clock, time to run the set.”

Devonte Green: “12 seconds on the clock, I have 10 seconds to get to my spot.”

Except when he looked back for a play to run with 4 on the clock

He was billed as a very streaky shooter.

What’s crazy is we played bad against a ranked team at home and are tied at half. If IU can get any production from our guards I feel fully confident in this game.

Hunter back in the huddle? He hit that devil’s lettuce after his coming out party over the weekend and facing a suspension that’s on the hush? What’s happening?

Wondered why he isn’t playing.

Sad I cant remember his last 3 made.

Yes, but if you aren't making shots it's good to see that you show up in other ways.

Jones really isn’t that good. He’s like Green with his breakout games but is pretty mediocre when he isn’t raining from 3. Whatever he gets on O, he gives up on D anyway.

Million dollar question I missed pregame injury report did anyone listen?, was he in it

Green, Rob, Al, Armaan, and Damezi are a combined 2-15 (Devonte is 1-7) from the floor.

Al and RP combining to take 4 shots is as frustrating as Green taking 7 in 10 minutes.

He's taking the term PUke/pUKe to heart.

I’d definitely characterize his career as disappointing given the potential that was evident coming out of HS.

Not sure he was on the pregame injury report but was tweeted he went to the locker room at some point during the first half.  Would assume something in warm ups.

We just need some help from guards and we can win this game. Some high low with our centers would also be an early 2nd half focus. I like our chances.

He is a one dimensional one-in-three three point shooter.  He was that at IU, Oklahoma State, and he's that now at Penn State.  Difference today is he's two of his three pointers but he's just as likely to hit 0 of 3.

This game has been the basketball equivalent of the old joke: "a battle of wits between two unarmed opponents".

[RaceToTheTop 25,616]

Rob, for one, needs to take advantage when he's left open.  If not, he's a really easy guy to guard.

I’m not sure the zebras will allow us any forwards in the 2nd half.

Agreed. Would love to see him ready to shoot. He looks really hesitant.
