coonhounds Posted January 5, 2021 Posted January 5, 2021 Serious question most of us wanted archie to give some other guys a chance I know I did but at one point he had 3 freshman on court at same time. I am for geronimo getting some minutes but surrounding him with other inexperienced guys is a terrible idea imo. Give guys minutes but not all at same time. Why would archie do this?Sent from my SM-G960U using Tapatalk Quote

Maryland is not big. Why are we not using a cross screen to the weak side while swinging the ball for a post feed. Let Maryland prove they can stop that and if they do adjust. This nonsense about swinging the ball around and taking a 3 without even a post player touching the ball is ridiculous. Stop chucking 3’s and run some post action. Our all-american post man that we’d be feeding is getting worked by a guy that has registered 1 (one) block on the entire season. We’re bad from everywhere. kreigh8 1 Quote
finky Posted January 5, 2021 Posted January 5, 2021 I doubt whomever Insures IU will allow fans behind the baskets when fans are allowed back. Quote

Well Race got some great looks in the paint. They are really taking away TJD left hand and we all know he can’t finish right. Quote
coonhounds Posted January 5, 2021 Posted January 5, 2021 Revisionist history. Those teams also played no defense, were a turnover machine and were going nowhere at the end of Coach Crean's tenure. I would like something better now, but that is not in our recent past.I am not advocating for crean i was calling for his head as bad as anybody I also didn't like our bigs gunning threes but I wish tjd had a 3 ball now lolSent from my SM-G960U using Tapatalk cthomas 1 Quote
cappymo14 Posted January 5, 2021 Posted January 5, 2021 I understand this, man. But Just imagine how painful it is going to be when you’re watching an ncaa tournament game in assembly and the commentators bring up the IU program and how far it has fallen. It will be a kick in the balls. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile appWith that news, IU simply has to make the field this year. I don’t feel like they can do that if they don’t win these games in which the other team is similarly ranked. I just don’t feel like archie understands how important this game is to his future.Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app Quote

Sent from my SM-G960U using Tapatalk He’s quite thin. No Brunk leaves Geronimo and Hunter as your subs for the bigs. Hunter played like 2 minutes maybe after nearly breaking the backboard on his early 3. Don’t disagree with your overall point he’s just handcuffed. No Franklin and I’m sorry for the Lander fans but he’s nowhere close to be ready to contribute no matter the minutes he sees johnsoniu 1 Quote

TheWatShot Posted January 5, 2021 Posted January 5, 2021 They've hit 5 three pointers. We've hit none. You simply can't keep getting outscored by 15-18 points from beyond the arc every single game. cappymo14 1 Quote
Trish Posted January 5, 2021 Posted January 5, 2021 Trayce is so one dimensional. we may have been overrated ourselves based on him alone. Quote

kreigh8 Posted January 5, 2021 Posted January 5, 2021 Defense is slipping a bit while the offense continues to be lackluster. They’re getting plenty of clean looks at the basket close, and unfortunately they seem to be better finishers there Quote
Ryno6284 Posted January 5, 2021 Posted January 5, 2021 This brand of IU basketball is very difficult to watch! Season 3 of Cobra Kai anyone? WayneFleekHoosier and coonhounds 2 Quote
