Virginia averaged 68 points per game....the NCAA average was 71,  Stop acting like they had soccer scores.  

I don't care what the average is. Not looking for average. No excuse to be below 75.

Snoop to IUBB confirmed

Sorry that I want good basketball. Playing not to score like a crappy HS game, isn't basketball. It's not Indiana basketball. 

"Good basketball" is as subjective as it gets.  The guy is a championship level coach and wins a lot, last I checked that's pretty darn good.

So half the teams in the NCAA scored less than 71.  THE HORROR!

What style is “IU basketball”?  Because from where I sit, it’s been losing.

guess I don’t get the thought that if the name doesn’t come from an individual’s personal list of top two or so, it’s a bad hire.

Well when Indiana was actually good... Under McCracken... Under Knight.. even under Crean.. we got up and down the court and tried putting the ball in the hoop.

Actually the more I think about Kendrick tweeting something about a home run hire it leads to a couple of people. #1 Thad Matta who recruited Jaquan Lyle. This could make perfect sense. #2 Mike Woodson

Kendrick usually gets good information. I live close to him and Lander. I have no source but based off the two of them I would guess it’s Mack or Belein with a possibility of Beard. Mack coached and played in Evansville . Belein coached Landers favorite team growing up.

Mack isn't a "Homerun" more of a fielder's choice. I'd rather have Matta or Beilein or some of the nobodies on Stuhoo's list. REALLY hope this is another false rumor.

Knight's teams won in different ways, not always track meets.  He's the best coach ever for a reason.

Opinion: Mike Woodson is not a home run. He's not even a double.

We would be guaranteed to be a 'high' scoring team.

To the new people LCS is a consistent as it gets when it comes to Bennett.   He could win back to back NC at IU and he still is not going to be a fan.   Worst thing that ever happened to LCS was Bennett winning it all.  Can’t ever say his style can’t win it all.   No point in arguing it or putting up the stats.   Put this debate in the agree to disagree category

My lord, that triple overtime win (can't remember the year)-- that was fantastic! My friend (God rest his soul) gave up and went to bed. Couldn't wait to tell him the next day of our win.. good times

Wan't that a Monday or Tuesday late game?  I think WI had Ricky Olsen then and, boy, that guy was a thorn in our side.

LCS is a fast food sandwich.

Stromboli is more willing to be served with a long-simmered sauce.

I REALLY don't see Bennett happening, but if IU could pull that off I'd be ecstatic.  Guy is a really good coach.

He is a blooper just over the second baseman's glove, but I really don't like the Matta or Belien ideas either so.

Correct. I'll never change. Sorry for being consistent I guess? His style can stay in Wisconsin and Virginia.

Mike Woodson would be the combination of striking out looking and a fastball to the crotch.

Beilein would have been the perfect hire like... 15 years ago or so.
