Watched other teams last night for the first time. UK (without Oscar), Gonzaga (played outside), UNC, and Purdue. No reason IU can't beat any of them from what I've seen so far. UNC is terrible defensively. Gonzaga I think is extremely overrated. Timmie is a difference maker and that's going to help them. 

Yeah I have a feeling this UNC team is criminally overrated. They were flaming garbage for a majority of last season, got a little hot at the end of the year and got a dream NCAA tourney draw. I get why they got the preseason love, but they’re not impressive to me at all.

Two games in  --

Zach Edey is really, really good tall.  

Brandon Newman is inconsistent.

Fletcher Loyer likes to jack up shots.......but isn't that kind of player yet.

FIFY. I don't think he's all that talented. His main talent is being really tall. He's not a total stiff and just being tall is enough to be effective in college so he'll put up really good numbers.

I've said the same before. They remind me of UCLA a few years ago when they had a mediocre season, squeaked into the NCAAT, went on a great run, and were then overrated the next season when they were decent but not great.

I have watched parts of their last two games. Their two guards and the big boy are legit, but they’ve struggled with two non-P5 teams. They struggled against teams who can put long athletic guys on the floor, especially on offense.
 

I’m sure they’ll figure it out, but they’re far from the consensus #1 team right now.

How in the world is Gonzaga #2 they didn't look like it last night.

Lousy. He’s no Trent Sisley.

But Louisville, who were up five with the ball with one minute left, just lost to Wright State on a buzzer beater. Oh Louisville, that was disappointing I bet.

Sycamores up 12 at half.    Neese with 16

This team is fun. Taking Little Hova to the NDSU game Thursday if my schedule works out. 

[IU/Butler/Notre Dame 580]

I thought Lewis would fire them up but ball state looks lackadaisical as ever ….slow on close outs …lots of 1 on 1 basketball forcing contested shots with little ball movement …..he inherited a bit of a mess other than sparks and sellers likely being keepers/studs  for the future

Is anybody really surprised 

[cbp4iu 2,066]

Archie Miller will be good in 3 years but until then… You know the drill. 

[Uspshoosier 51,339]

Grand Canyon up 1 at Nevada with 11:41 to go 

[rcbowla 7,769]

Yeah you have to be patient with Archie. His system takes at least 3 years to learn. So every player will get it by the time they are seniors. Trust the process
