If Woody can’t go Saturday I hope he tells Ya to be sure he has a good internet connection so he can make coaching decisions based on consultation with btownbanners posters.

Sometimes your team is going to play like crap. I don't care what the circumstances are, if you play like crap and make enough winning plays to get a B1G road win I'm good with it. We had good looks tonight that didn't fall, guards played terribly on offense and yet we won on the road. That's 4, now go clean up the bad and get 5. Good teams find a way to win when they play poorly.

I got the same feeling watching this video as I did when JBj hit that game winner against PSU many years ago. Hope this season takes a different path.

By all accounts it was a……..

But…. A W nonetheless!

GO HOOSIERS!

Glad we got the win. Hope we fix the errors for Saturday.  If we can get two more wins and Purdue drops a game or two our matchup is going to be super important

I was on Coach Ya (I think like the rest of the fan base), about not getting Malik back in. 

Saw this posted in a Hoosier Huddle Article. Appears sub patterns were not in Ya, and Woodson even encourage him pre game to run his own sets and plays out of timeouts.

"Rosemond wasn’t running the show completely alone. He said assistant coaches Kenya Hunter and Brian Walsh handled substitutions, so he could focus on the game’s flow, coaching the team on the floor, and executing the game plan."

I'll take a win any way we can get one, especially on the road.

Malik Reneau's progress throughout the conference season is very encouraging. He definitely looked lost early on, but something has clicked for him lately.

I hope this continues.

I'm in the 'take the win' camp.  But yes, substitutions (mostly lack thereof) were the biggest issue for me.  Hopefully that will be a strong point of emphasis for the coaching staff if Woody misses another game.

Does anybody remember the Minny chokehold your teammate shot for an insane 2 point bucket ? 

See, that’s what IU is up against time and time again. The opposing team  throws up a sloppy prayer and it goes in!

Stop the nonsense!

 

However, the ball did bounce our way when Kopp got on the floor to secure it and alertly called a timeout. 

Albeit…. It tried it’s damndest NOT to bounce our way.

 

GO HOOSIERS!

I was yelling at the TV for Malik to get some minutes in the 2nd half like everyone else. JG someone. Sounds like we went with the veterans. 

Race D was good. 

Our guards brought nothing to the game last night Trey, JHS or Bates.

Woody is expected to coach Saturday night

While I thought Race looked fine last night, a plus 9 when the team was plus 4 is good but not a revelation.

The +9 helps explain that some then. He was just out of sync on offense, looked unsure, slow and slow to get off the ground. On defense I can remember several plays where he kept his verticality on drives, and played good defense. 

I would also like to give Miller Kopps some high praise. That kid played 40 minutes and busted his butt. Knocked down several big shots, and made a potentially game winning dive on that ball and got the timeout. 

My biggest issue from the game...JHS is unwilling to go after loose balls...

I agree, I told my wife he's thinking about his NBA career and not diving on a loose ball.

Some idiots changed their score to a 20 pt blowout...fools

Ouch!  Low blow man!

[Capt. Crimson]

Trayce’s put back after Race’s missed free throw into Kopp diving on the ball and calling a time out. Love it. Won the game right there. Squeaked one out at the Barn!

Well, the good news is that if Woody can't coach against the Bucknuts, it won't be Ya in charge.

No player in Division I men's college basketball had 25+ points, 20+ rebounds, and 6+ blocks in a game this season until tonight.

Coach Ya post-game on Malik's lack of playing time.

JHS wasn't alone in that for the majority of the game. That had all the feels of knowing we were superior to them and just wanting to make it through the game. NW game repeated minus the outcome.

Yeah, JHS's shots just weren't falling. His normal midrange game should have eaten that zone alive last night.

Part of that was us passing around the perimeter and not attacking the zone. Having JHS in the middle might have been a good strategy against the 2-3
