Indiana vs Stony Brook Post-Game thread

Recommended Posts

Improvement every time out.  You can't ask for much more from such a young team.  We have got to tighten that FT shooting up though.  It will be a whole new ball game taking this outfit to NY.  We'll see how they handle playing away from home and playing a power conference team.

Solid all around game really. Never got out of control and pretty much had them at a good distance the whole second Half. They made a quick comeback right before the half. Overall, Noah is a boss and I think we will be a team others don't want to play. So athletic it's scary

What a difference a few days and watching game tape can do for this team. They're improving by the day. Defensively, I think the team did a good job. My concern is hitting free throws. The way the game is being called, players will be on the line a lot. Stony Brook shot very well from the line and was able to stay close. We, on the other hand, shot poorly from the FT line and that allowed SB to stay with us. If we shoot FT 70-75% instead of 50% or less then we would have dominated the opponent. I just think we've got to shoot better than 50% from the stripe if we're going to put teams away.

Noah and Yogi were great. Gordon gave us solid production off the bench............ We missed 19 free throws

 

Yep, there are a lot of things we did good.  Enough to feel good about, but enough to not feel overconfident.  These kids will win games they shouldn't and lose games they shouldn't.

Very nice game from Noah I thought this could be a possible trap game Stony Brook is a good ball club. Ended up leaving at half usher pissed me off wouldn't let me sit in the half empty student section. Caught the rest on BTN.

Thanks for the highlights guys. IU does seem to improve with every game, and its evident. Just wish they would improve on the bad free throw shooting! Go IU!Sent from my DROID4 using BtownBanners mobile app


Agree with you Jaybob. Improvement is evident from game to game. I'm really enjoying watching the team develop. Now about those free throws, they can correct this! The way they play and they way the hand check rule is being called, they will be going to the FT line a lot. Converting those attempts into points will win games. Extra time in Cook Hall can bump up that FT stat line. I want to see them step up to the line with confidence. Make it happen, boys.
