IU5355 Posted October 18 Posted October 18 How good is UNC projected? Probably a lot of unknown with them. Regardless, we look more athletic and physical which is shocking. Lindsay is our backup PG. Let that sink in for a minute. HoosierHoopster 1 Quote

Here’s where he can show what he’s capable of. I loved the hire. Hopefully we see a team that’s relevant again Very flawed. But Wilkerson was a 1 of 1. Really excited for this year Quote
FortWayneHoosier Posted October 18 Posted October 18 Just tuned in the last few minutes looking forward to the second half, sounds like Lindsey is balling out Quote
OKHOOSIER Posted October 18 Posted October 18 Im trying very hard not to overreact from one half of exhibition basketball, but this team looks better in just about every facet already. Also we need to make no commercials and just watching whatever nonsense is happening on the court at halftime an option for every game. WayneFleekHoosier and Home Jersey 2 Quote
WayneFleekHoosier Posted October 18 Posted October 18 Well well well. Hard not to like certain things that half. We’ve got size. We’ve got rebounding. We’ve got some athleticism. We’ve got some shooting. Defensive intensity has been pretty good. If Lindsay has it like this we’ve got 3 or 4 guys that can go off. The negatives? Some selfish shots on a few possessions. Mustaf seems kinda one dimensional on offense (but it’s a good dimension-hoping he can expand his game. Use his driving to playmake) Yigi really motors and plays hard. I like that even when the pace is fast he’s getting up and down. Doesn’t seem to labor. RoderickJaynes, OKHOOSIER and Home Jersey 3 Quote

Kenpom has them 10 or so above us. IU5355 and WayneFleekHoosier 2 Quote

Malone is a good coach and they got a few proven players from the ACC. They should safely be a tournament team but likely not a top 25 team Quote

He definitely will, but I suspect there are gonna be games where he does exactly this and there are gonna be games like this except they aren’t going in and that won’t deter him at all. I’m already preparing myself to want to kill him a couple of times this year. RoderickJaynes, HoosierHoopster, WayneFleekHoosier and 1 other 4 Quote

I’m already preparing myself to want to kill him a couple of times this year. I think that’s where our depth is going to be so huge this year. Darian isn’t going to start yanking guys as soon as they miss a shot or two because that’s completely antithetical to his coaching style, but it’ll be nice to have other options if a tertiary guy like Lindsay simply doesn’t have it one night.

Yegi is slow as molasses and a walking foul machine. Sam may end up starting by years end. Quote
WayneFleekHoosier Posted October 18 Posted October 18 This is a Tall, Long, and talented UNC team. They are gonna be solid. Keita is very impressive at his age. He’s another one of those freshman that needs to come back for year 2 like Kusterica and Boumtje Boumtje. Demo and Home Jersey 2 Quote
RoderickJaynes Posted October 18 Posted October 18 A 27-14 rebounding advantage is so nice to see. Going to be a trend all year Quote
WayneFleekHoosier Posted October 18 Posted October 18 Shooting a lot of 3s is probably a good strategy with our frontcourts ability to rebound. Hoping that remains our calling card all season. Quote
