Oh I'm not hearing it, I meant potentially staying on since we don't know yet.

In other news, Woody's page is up.

Need to get an updated photo on there for CMW... but hey, anything's better than that Crean "snarl" on my IU poster circa 2011 :)

Not sure how I feel about Cliff. Players were getting a lot stronger but also felt like we had as many injuries as anyone in the conference over the last few years.

But were they getting stronger? Seems like a YUGE issue on the team was finishing at the rim. I can't recall seeing more missed point blank shots and layups in all my years.

I may be misremembering, but it seems like most of the injuries were rolled ankles, concussions, Race getting an elbow to the face, etc. Those don't have anything to do with strength and conditioning. I don't remember many muscle pulls but I could be wrong.

At least 3 back injuries that all seemed to come outside of games. They could've happened at practice or in the weight room.

Crean had a problem with ankle and lower leg injuries in practice that seemed to mostly go away after Miller came in and abandoned the sand pit. For Miller it seems the common injuries outside of games has been back. There's also Phinisee's lower abdominal injury which could also have been from lifting.

That's just speculation on my part as I have no insider info on how those injuries occurred. Regardless, other than the social media pictures you couldn't really see much of a difference in play. The players didn't seem stronger than many of their opponents and there wasn't a noticeable instead in quickness or athleticism over the last 4 years. I don't care if he goes, especially if Woodson can bring in someone from the NBA that specializes in basketball players rather than Marshall who was mostly football with some basketball and hockey players.

I remember a period when Devonte had an injured hammy and Rob had a couple undisclosed injury things I thought too. Also have to hope Brunk’s back injury was totally unrelated to weightlifting programs or else that would be an awful indication.

As I’ve said for years. Most teams run some version of 41 in college.  It’s not so much the intricacies of the offense, it’s the athletes, m shot makers, spacing, and players that can read and react.  
 

what I never understood from Archie is he was so predictable.  He didn’t encourage transition.  He strongly discouraged early shots even when open.  He set up the actions the same way over and over and over.  We never saw backcuts, give n gos, simple basketball plays.  It was all fees the post or picknroll/pop over and over.  Get someone moving off the ball.  

IU ran 32 so much......with no inside spacing on the two inside guys.  Never understood that.
