He adapted to the situation. When they played the Runnin Rebels in 1987 he knew they would have to up the tempo to win. So they went on to out score them. And off to the Championship they went.

I watch Carmel (the best program in the state right now)... score 52ppg in the tourney so far. I literally do not care what style it is as long as it's a winning one. I want a coach that’s gonna instantly turn the program around in year or two, max. When this happens, I want that coach committed to IU for the long haul and not swayed by big money because of success. I want IU to be the dream job and the final stop. I know those things will happen to successful programs, but I believe Dolson is the right guy for the job and he is trying to make a statement folks,.....Building a Potential Monster!

That is a testament that shows he can win ANYWHERE. He can win. And he'd win at Indiana and I'd love that. But he and his style don't belong here. We just spent 4 years struggling to score and now we are going to try and not score? Nah. Some coaches fit places well. He doesn't fit Indiana. From personality to playing style. IU Scott 1

I completely forgot about Yoder and Jackson too for that matter.It does seem Bennett started the turnaround so I guess that's where my mind took me. I remember Knight being pissed over the late starting times and agree to this day. IUFLA 1

I actually really enjoyed watching that championship team. They can be boring, and I wish they played a bit more uptempo, but it can also be fun to watch when there is good offensive personnel.

That 87 team also averaged 82.5 ppg. So it's not like they needed a huge adjustment. They were already a great scoring team. But UNLV did average 10 ppg more.

Efficiency doesn't mean anything on tempo. Year after year they are one of the slowest teams in the nation.
Hoosier Guy Posted March 22, 2021 Posted March 22, 2021 I’m not buying that Bennett has serious consideration. However, it’s fun to think about being in the conversation for conference championships every season once again NVFalcons1990, Hippopotamo and BGleas 2 1
bleedhoosier Posted March 22, 2021 Posted March 22, 2021 Man this board really needs something to lock onto. This little desert of no-info has turned into a pissing match of people who speak in absolutes that know absolutely nothing about what would, could or can happen. Also the same point being made 35x. Relax, wait for some news. NVFalcons1990, T White, Hippopotamo and 1 other 4
