The offense makes me want to claw my eyes out. This can’t be the style of play in 2023 for recruits eyeing Indiana. 
 

 

I wasnt joking when I said earlier we don’t run an offense. We literally DONT. Our offense is try and score in transition.

Our spacing is horrendous. This isn’t even hyperbole: they’re at about a middle school level of understanding when it comes to spacing on the perimeter. 
 

They routinely double our post and effectively guard 4 other guys with 3 defenders because we have guys just randomly standing wherever. 

What's bad is that it seems normal, having watched us do exactly the same thing year after year.

[Crazy about IU]

This team is without two key players is not as deep as we thought. All the arm chair coaches who wanted this player or that player to play more. They are now how that going for us ?

I don’t understand how the D has went from being great last year and early this year to atrocious this fast. I killed the IU under or team under last year with no problem. This year has been difficult. Same pieces, worse team?

I think the refs from the UNC game arrived at halftime. 

[RaceToTheTop]

....and refs trying to even up the calls.

[bmitch]

When he’s feeling it, I’d let jalen iso whenever he wants to

[RaceToTheTop]

Lazy play by Bates....totally gave up on the loose ball

[RaceToTheTop]

We can't play Reneau right now.

[TheWatShot]

Reneau...come on.

I’m beginning to think you’re absolutely right. This is just bad. He’s lost. 

[RoadRage]

Wow...wide open 12 footer and he walks!

He's in his own head.  He saw a clean lane and instead of just driving, he worried about someone stepping in and drawing a charge.

Ideally we play 1 big in this game…issue is we don’t have anymore guards

Beating up on the dregs of college basketball didn’t seem to prepare him/ build his confidence as much as has been promised.

[Bowhunter]

Reneau poo poo.

?

So he didn't play against Xavier, UNC, Arizona and Kansas?

[Alford Bailey]

Whole team looks uninspired. You would think some guys would take advantage of the opportunity to get minutes

3 WHOLE games. Can’t believe he’s not an AA already.

I said it in another game thread, but it is applicable here too. Our players play like basketball is a chore they have to do before they get to go do the things they really want to do.
