Game Thread: IUBB at Kansas Sat 12/17/22 Noon ESPN2

[Loaded Chicken Sandwich 9,226]

If I'm coach, TJD, Race, JHS and Kopp are sitting the bench next game. Maybe one day they'll decide to give a damn to play a game. 

[kreigh8 2,111]

Gunn in and chuck. That's what I'm talking about!

[DChoosier 9,489]

Well, we went 2-2, which I predicted, vs the 4 “name” non-conference opponents.
I didn’t, however, think we would be non-competitive in both losses. Thought we might get smoked a bit in one of the games but not 2.  

On to the next.

Let’s show Elon and Kennesaw State who is boss.

Where's the Mr Basketball Leal?

Man this program is never ever one time going to at least try to help out the seasonal depressive crowd, are they?

Not sure but it would be really nice if they could atleast try. Program has been in the dumpster last 7 plus years so be nice to not be trash again

We just got absolutely punked. IUFB is flushed with no hope. IUBB has had hope for a while but the Woodson appeal will be gone very soon if we keep looking like this. So embarrassing.

JHS was our best player and the only one who looked like he belonged …at times. 
 

Otherwise I don’t disagree. Our backups will get smoked too tho.

This team will be lucky to make the tournament....Woody had his chance, this is not working!

Isn't that telling though no? Freshman Banks and Gunn getting in over him as a Junior

Woody apparently has the least leeway of any coach in the history of IU athletics.

 Such good promise in this team is squandered.

Really disheartening.

[WayneFleekHoosier 50,964]

Just some history of playing ranked teams on the road in non conference...

So much for being good at defense lol.

Not exactly a revelation today as it has been telling for quite a while.

He's 70 years old, he's not getting any better!

All I can say is... 37.7%...

Yep. D and turnovers were really disappointing (I’m used to missing shots on the road).

I had the chance to, but as several have said in here before…all you had to do was watch him in HS to know it would be hard for him to see the floor and get major minutes at this level. He’s Slow laterally, not overly athletic and just shoots the ball okay. He plays hard, was Mr. Basketball and  is a really good kid that loves Indiana. If he’s okay with his spot, I’m okay with him being there and supporting this program.

KU is supposed to be a small team and they put up 50 in the paint on us, that tells the story I think.
