Why did it take this team 20 minutes to collectively pull its head out of its a$$?

You can post this question during any game vs a major conference team.

Because there are going to be bad stretches of focus and performance.

 The difference? None of those players that sulk when called out are playing this year.

Archie has a team that he can blast for effort at halftime,

and get a winning response.

 

True but good teams will build that 10-12 point lead in the first half then just play us even the second half.  The lazy halves have to stop

If we could stop with the very early games that would be fantastic

I disagree completely!  I think every game should be played at 11:00 AM Eastern Time or earlier.  Considering I'm 6 hours ahead The only way I can watch a game live is if it is played before 4 PM.  :)

The Butler Bulldogssh**s. Just use the poop emoji as your logo.

Welcome to my world kinda having to wake up at dawn to watch most F1 races live.

Galloway - time and score. He's going to be a good one. I'd much rather let him bang around to spell Thompson than to watch Hunter get worked down there. Give up a couple inches, but I'd take my chances

Galloway has a Mensa level b-ball iq

Galloway is a gamer, plays like a senior. You can tell he's a coach's son. I'll echo what everyone else has said about if his shot can improve.

I have gotten pretty good about being able to stay away from sports pages, and Social Media when I really want to watch a game,  :).  My WI friends all laugh at me, because my wife and I have watched the Packers for Monday Night Football practically all season long.

You got knocked the f*** out!

If we win by more than 11, it would be our largest margin of victory in the Crossroads Classic.

Knowing a couple members of the coaching staff on CMA, it'd be easy money wagering his shot will improve while at IU.

Yeah after that Maryland game last year you think these guys would stay focused till the end.

A timeout when you're down 11 with 21 seconds left? Really? 

[LIHoosier]

Timeout down 11 with 20 seconds left? Is the 25 point basket in play?
