Ummm. Our entire offense was 4 out 1 in this year. lol.

That or our Pick n Roll series / Roll & Replace series

I don't really agree. Race or Trayce were on the blocks almost the entire time.We even had Jerome posting up way too much which made no sense to me. Hopefully we can be more free flowing next year. Rob was looking over to Archie every other possession to call a play.

I wish our reporters had the balls like NBA reporters to ask the real questions

 

"How close was Brad Stevens?"

I’m really excited about Woody now.  I can see what some of the older guys meant when they said we need an “IU guy.” This is a man who wanted to be at IU dating back to when he was in elementary school 50-55 years ago, and now he’s the head coach. I really hope it works out.

Race Thompson took 15 total 3s this season. There was nothing that was 4 out about the offense this past season.

Thrilled for the future of the program.

I thought the Matta/Eels connection and that TM was at the game when May broke his arm in 75 was kind of cool.

[Trish 12,450]

Press conference was solid. 

We'll finally find out if an Indiana guy can really save Indiana Basketball or if this program is truly dead.

His staff will tell a lot about his confidence in recruiting. 

Players currently in the portal staying in the portal and leaving will tell a lot as well honestly.

Clearly comes off as a players coach

That's all I wanted. Someone who the players can buy in on their vision. Sounds like we'll take a modern approach to the game and be raining threes. You could hear how much he cares. I'm in.

What IU team did you watch this year? There was zero 4 out motion going on.

Even if you're going to argue that the offense "looked 41-ish," (hit or miss on when I'd agree with that), we weren't executing with any motion at all. We were mostly just standing around.

When Race was injured we ran 4-out. Don't sit here and tell me we didn't run it at all this year.

When our offense collapsed and we went small with subs, it was 4-out.

Interesting. 

Hoosier Sports Nation hates the hire while this site tends to love the hire.

Difference in ages perhaps? Anyone been to Peegs? How are they reacting lol

They love it. I haven't found anyone that I know and trust who doesn't love it

[LamarCheeks 20,533]

Hypotheticals are unavoidable, so here's one ... 

I think I recall reading that Chris Reynolds said he wasn't necessarily a fan of the Archie hire. I wonder -- had he gotten the AD job instead of Dolson, who would he have picked?

The vast majority of HSN is more than fine with the hire.

I think Coach Wood said, “We are going to shoot 3s and a whole lot of them !”

My favorite part of the press conference was him talking about his 6th grade teacher helping him go to Bob Knight’s basketball camp. 
 

High school kids might not know the name Mike Woodson, but he’ll be able to go into any living room in the country and relate to the kids he’s talking to. For many recruits, his story growing up is their story too.
