Somehow the guy who couldn’t coach the college game or recruit is 3-1 against Purdue  with a 1 and done elite guard…

And Archie the A+ guaranteed home run just went 0-7 for the month of February at Rhode Island

Post-game Purdue head coach Matt Painter said that he wanted to limit Jalen Hood-Schifino off his right hand.   Painter quickly said after “He sent a news flash that he can play with his left.”

Conservatively he has 2 home games next week. Let’s say we go 1-1 in the BTT. That is 4 games in two weeks. And if we’re the 3/4 seed, assuming we win that’s 5 games in about 19-20 days before he HAS to hit 100% for the toughest tourney games.
 

That’s doable. It’s cutting it close and not something I’m relying on. But technically he could do it.

Yeah and it’s not like he needs to be able to play 30 minutes. But somebody to go in at 13 minutes to give Trey or JHS a spell till the under 12 timeout

Remember when the argument was that 'although Galloway plays with high energy, he shouldn't be a starter on a good NCAA team?'

This is Trey Galloway's team next year.

Trey Galloway absolutely stuffed the stat sheet tonight.

HOWEVER, there is one stat that Trey put up a big fat zero in:

We need one of those with Galloway.  He traumatized Smith tonight.  The best part is Smith knew he had nothing against Gallo.

Geez, where's the last time Archie won in February...Dayton?

[Brass Cannon]

Somebody feel free to correct me but I think if we play 37 games this year. That means 6 postseason games then Xavier is eligible for a red shirt if he doesn’t make it back to us this year. 
 

If so that would be insanely helpful for next years team

I remember that argument from last summer.

Man what a win...as an IU fan since the early 2000s I can remember just a few games where IU won when nobody gave them a chance...'02 Duke is one of those. UK game in 2011. 

1) Jalen.Hood.Schifino. Well done. Enjoy what time left of him we have. May be a top ten pick when it's all said and done. Dude just took over. Knew he was the best guard on the floor in both matchups. If he can be consistent the rest of the way...

2) Even though Trayce didn't play well, dude had 8 rebounds and 7 assists. Still found a way to impact the game. 

3) Thought Woodson out-coached Painter. Made some really good adjustments all night. 3-1 vs Purdue in two years. 

4) Galloway was HUGE! Most improved player this year? Felt he and JHS just set the tone. Nothing against Loyer and Smith..but JHS and Trey are better. Just outtoughed Purdue. 

5) Don't get me wrong. Purdue is a good team. Very good. Sweet 16 good. I just haven't thought at all this year that they are top 5/top 10 good. Edey is the POY. Just don't think they are that good outside of that. As much as I like Painter, I can't stand some of their fan base. Obnoxious. And they've won NOTHING. 

Massive win. Let's finish strong at home and IU is probably a 3 seed. Hope they can get a healthy Xavier Johnson back! Only downside was IU got nothing out of their bench. offensively.

Yep. That’s where he was before he came to IU (huge mistake)

[NashvilleHoosier]

I’m most happy that we simultaneously allowed TJD to play 33 non-burdensome, somewhat restful minutes while also taking the narrative that this team is gassed and throwing it the garbage where it belongs.

If he makes another jump like he did this year he could be All-League good.

This was in the back of my mind earlier. Would be a little risky. But yes, would help a lot.

Hey, hand up…not sure if I posted it, but I definitely thought it. That kid adding a legit jumper totally changed his trajectory.
