The zone offense....I can't say anything nice so I will keep quiet.

Thank you Noah for giving up a big rebound and "and-1." We needed that board.

We seem to have games every now and again (going back as many years as I can remember, and every team has these games) where the guys just come out really flat. It always reminds me of the scene in Varsity Blues where they go to the strip club the night before a game and get destroyed the next night.

Thats 13 points completely because of him. He cannot defend the post.

IU doesn't have that bulldog mentality. Notre Dame does, huge difference in this game IMO.

You mean like the LIU Brooklyn game or the Cuse game? It's not "every once in a while" this is the 3rd time this has happened.

There you go Hollowell. HUGE.

He isn't a post player. Never has been. He is awful, definitely, but I think more because a lack of experience there.

good thing Will came to play, single-handedly keeping this close.

3 of 10 times isn't exactly "frequent" either. Not sure what phrase you would have preferred there...

we are getting killed on hustle plays

Did they get rid of the moving screen foul with the new rules? This is getting ridiculous.

every time we make a play, they go and score again...

Evan was smart to shoot when he got hit this time.

[JaybobHoosier 11,843]

Really enjoy Gordon's game. He can get too deep in the lane, but really like this style.

I know I'm in the minority, but I like Hollowell handling the ball
