I mean, that's par for the course right there.

I’m not surprised that was made

You guys really gonna go all ballistic over a game like this?

If they play like this against good teams then be concerned.

First game. Lots of new combinations in the lineup. 

It’s the first game…. But we have an awful non conference slate. We have to beat the tar out of these teams. It matters for the resume. Did you not pay attention at all last season?

Carlyle is a MAN on ball. Wow

[Hoosierfan1901 6,042]

Carlyle’s defense, noted.

Rice needs to settle in

Yup. 4 TO’s to 2 assists- not playing like he has been coming into this game. Gotta get settled for the 2nd.

And the team goes as he goes

[LIHoosier 25,653]

Oh no, we're trying the foul to give charade again

[IUHoosier5 1,463]

You can see the pieces. I would have liked a better start.

If he can give us just a little bit of something on offense, I think our best 5 currently might be Rice/Carlyle/Tucker/Mgbako/Reneau

[Stuhoo 79,338]

Love the way our guards defend.

[hoosierdogg 3,144]

Love the speed of Rice, but he may need to throttle down occasionally.

That’s well said.

On to the second half to see if we settle in and adjust.

[Hoosierfan1901 6,042]

15-3 run at the end looked so much better 

[tyappleg 2,955]

Nice to see them pull a way a little bit.  Need to come out strong and finish them early to start the 2nd. 

[Class of '66 Old Fart 83,569]

[Home Jersey 6,329]

I expect we will come out strong in the 2nd half and put them away with a good point total. Confusing rotations in the first half. Still the 1st game... will be fine. Look forward to Mike Woodson's continued growth as a college basketball coach.

Clearly you're referring to his waistline!

[HoosierHoopster 6,708]

Yeah I think we’ll see our guys score around 50 points in the second— we’ll see

Ballo is a man on the boards and solid defensively.  

IMO Tucker hasn't looked very good tonight so far.  I know he put up good numbers against Marian but I believe he didn't play against Tennessee, did he?
