Through the course of an entire game. Not for any specific moment. Just some who seem to be consistently afraid of playing or simply having lapses in concentration while defending. These are college kids so I'm trying to pick personally attack  but at the same time it's clear other programs have more quality depth of players who just bunker down and stay within themselves. I'm typically talking about veterans and not freshmen (grow period needs to be taken to account).  Names of reference of the players who's style of play I wish we had (A.J. Moye, Dan Fife, Oladipo, Michael Lewis). Gabe Cupps from the games I've seen  seems to be one of those guys.

I think if you go on other fan’s message boards you would see they don’t agree with your assessment of their own players.

Oh I agree, but there are degrees. Our teams for the past 30 years (minus maybe five years) have missed the mark and I think being unable to pick good players to give us the consistent depth we need to win games. If you disagree I'll respect that.

Like having a pass thrown to you that is deflected and that leader kind of trots down the court for an excellent view of another 3 dropping on us?

I guess the word mediocre is a bit harsh. We should have been able to take one or when we were an elite program 2 games against Penn State and Northwestern. 

Historically, Penn State and Northwestern have been mediocre even bad. But this year both have been good.

This will be an interesting follow. Elijah Fisher from Texas Tech announces transfer. Reclassed up to ‘22 and was in the back end of the rotation at TTU. Had a great offer list as a ‘23. Not a great shooter, but an absolutely elite athlete at 6’6” and a terrific defender. Some similarities to a young Terrence Shannon. No idea if IU would be interested, but he’ll get way better offers than most 3ppg guys.

Maybe worth keeping an eye on: Jaemyn Brakefield from Ole Miss announces transfer. Had an IU offer under Archie, though it never went anywhere. I believe Hunter was his recruiter. Kind of a small ball 4. Averaged 11/6 in the SEC. 2 years of eligibility.
