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

Just recall the times reading how Leal, Kopp and Parker Stewart were going to solve all the shooting woes and really open things up for the offense and TJD. Time is running out on that dream

[LamarCheeks]

Seth Greenberg is absolutely roasting us post-game. He’s not wrong.

[Whoozhers]

23 TO’s! Unbelievable.

[WayneFleekHoosier]

Put JHS on Dick and don’t let him shoot.  Ever.
 
Wilson is a matchup problem for IU.   TJD is a matchup problem for Kansas. 
 
Kopp can’t guard Wilson. Can Race?  Doubt it. Curious who gets the assignment. 

No answer for Dick. Made him look like a top 5 draft pick. They did whatever they wanted all afternoon. Straight line drive after straight line drive. Never did we try to utilize our size advantage on O. Our guard play was pathetic. Yuck.

Moving on to the weekend. My boys both won their games with monster numbers this weekend. Lol.

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. 

Large majority of posters were hoping, if not promising, for more from his spot and scholarship. Priller didn't exactly get treated with the same kindness from some of that very crowd

[ILHoosier]

On the plus side refs didn’t run us out of the gym like they have been. Can’t call many fouls on IU when THEY play ZERO DEFENSE!!! Last 2 games.

I could be wrong but I don’t recall the Leal dream lasting very long. I was really hoping (against any real evidence) that Bates would turn into the guy that would open up things but, so far,………..

Not too late to turn things around but pretty much being non-competitive 3 of the last 4 games is disconcerting.

I agree.

I would have guessed 28-30.

Leal isn't even a shooter. He just got billed as one because he doesn't do anything else at even an average level. I think he's like 30% from 3 in college.

So much for being good at defense lol. 

This is the worst part. And a very troubling sign.
 

These aren’t just bad games. It’s a team in disarray. 

[Honkyman]

IU was obviously overrated by many going into this season. This team is not a top 30 team and not a serious contender to win the Big Ten.

[OliviaPope40]

I was hopeful when we were down 10 but then I got my hopes up.

[tkbbn]

Thought Franklin leaving was a mistake for him but obviously he knew what he was doing I guess. #2 Virginia playing well.

That’s the worst part if IU being a god awful basketball program. Losers and idiots just roasting us. Greenberg sucks, but he gets to do it cause we suck. 
 

Also, we’re the crap program other good programs get to play their lovable idiot walkons against.  
 

Twenty years of this crap…

[HoosierAloha]

Let's get back to playing those cupcakes so we can have a few players look all-world and hype the team up!!

Burn the film because we ain't trying to watch it anyhow. Looked like a whole lot of just trying to play it cool and no worries about winning or losing, who has pride in their game and university on this team?

[reconmkd]

Well that’s was… terrible! Hope the best for X but that doesn’t look good! Got to come up with a different game plan and work on some d@mn fundamentals!

[Whoozhers]

Disagree Coach. Loss of X was a non factor. 

[Josh]

I'm glad I skipped the second half to watch something better.

Y'all are so negative lol

[JSHoosier]

Can't turn it over 20 times and expect to beat any high major program, especially not a good one at home.  Are we EVER going to have a team that doesn't think effort is optional?

[NashvilleHoosier]

Soft and overrated. Fans showed up which was great to see. But we are so soft.
