Gallo getting rejected on that break .. Yikes! 

Jump stop is a lost art.  Too many guys are getting blocks just by timing someone going in for a layup.

Galloway’s got to start dunking those. He gets blocked too often trying to lay it in.

No chance. We’ll be sweating our late game free throws as usual

Mgbako completely benched after his substitution. Don’t get it. 

I have zero issue with the time  MM spent on the bench.

He was 0-7, sleep walking and IU was down 8-10 points when he was benched. Team made up the deficit with him on the bench to tie the game at the half.

I want MM shooting whenever he gets even a small window. Stop pumping and bringing it down. 
But he can’t defend on ball or within the team defense. Can’t create off the dribble or even reliably bring it up the court without fumbling it. 

He has a very, very good skill in shooting the basketball but he is an extremely one-dimensional player. 

He had 5 star physicals to go with the shot, but the rest of his skills/Bball IQ is severely lacking. 

We ask him to play too big of a role here IMO.

We're so talented, we can just out score most teams.  The problem is that doesn't work when we step up in competition level.

He's young, but I would think has seen the original "Top Gun." 

"Just hit the brakes, and he'll fly right by."

Hoosier women lead 20-11 after 1Q.  Garzon and Parrish have combined for 12 of our 20.

Defense seems a little more energetic 

[RaceToTheTop]

Rice needs to let Ballo clean it up.  Let the shot blocker eat if you get beat.

Been saying it about Galloway for three years. Hard to believe he’s a coach’s kid. 

[Whoozhers]

Time for Leal to guard Claude.

[IUHoosier5]

Important stretch here. A little out of sorts but can still blow it wide open. 

[IUHoosier5]

Huge defensive stand. Let’s score right here. 

[RoadRage]

If Rice stays at IU he'll be all B1G 1st team his senior year!

[IUHoosier5]

Fantastic! 

[LamarCheeks]

Ballo damn near tore that rim off. 

[RaceToTheTop]

Flop warnings are a thing of the past.

[OKHOOSIER]

I love that they have worked to eliminate that flop as a charge. 

[RaceToTheTop]

Hope that Woodson doesn't rest Ballo and put Hatton in.

They'll be time for Ballo to rest the last couple of minutes in the game if we extend the lead.
