HoosierDYT Posted January 8, 2021 Posted January 8, 2021 Good to see Leal getting some confidence to actually shoot the ball. We need him. You called it, I was wrong the other day. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app Loaded Chicken Sandwich 1 Quote

cappymo14 Posted January 8, 2021 Posted January 8, 2021 That's not on the coach. That's Al not giving the ball to Rob, and then making a terrible playSent from my iPhone using TapatalkI agree in part, but that’s about the fourth straight time I’ve watched a guard cross the timeline with the clock running down, and stand there looking at the coach because they have absolutely no idea what to run. How can that be?Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app Whoozhers, Josh and Hillsdale87 3 Quote

You're correct, I shouldn't focus on his weight, you can play or you can't, I just have seen enough to know he's not fixing things and get tired of hearing he would. Still not sure why I brought weight into it other than thinking there's a huge leap both in speed and in physicality to go from HS ball to D1 ball, let alone Big10 ball. I just can’t figure out what everyone who rated/recruited him saw in his game. He’s very quick with a decent handle but he can’t guard a trash can and his scoring ability is beyond horrible. Maybe it’s a confidence/lack of playing time issue but I don’t know if I’ve seen a scholarship guard play worse then him at IU in this small sample size. We have walk ons who are better than him Quote

We have walk ons who are better than him I've never seen him play prior to in an IU uniform. Was excited but this is not at all what I had expected. Eating some crow tonight, as I predicted Galloway wouldn't have a worse game than he did against Maryland. Tonight so far hasn't been much better. Don't need him to score, but need him to make some plays - defense, passing, rebounding. Missing some of those "winning plays" he will make the last game and a half. Quote
Honkyman Posted January 8, 2021 Posted January 8, 2021 Phinisee contributes very little. Lander is pressing too hard. If we had had a normal pre-conference season he would have had time to settle into it. The real problem is that Archie is probably the worst coach in the Big Ten. So IU starts out with a big handicap in every game it plays. HoosierDYT and Josh 2 Quote

If I remember correctly, Archie tried to get him to come to IU, but Wright instead chose Colorado. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app Quote

He should be a senior in high school and came here to get better. Give him time. cthomas 1 Quote
