WayneFleekHoosier Posted March 7, 2020 Posted March 7, 2020 Good luck with your thesis.Necessary potshot. Classy. I never pick on posters but any disgruntled Indiana fans, it’s free game on them.Point being, Making or missing the tournament is all the casual fan cares about. You and me and most of BTBanners are watching and caring at a different level. Seeing how we win. How we lose. How we play. To me it’s not just about making the tournament. If that’s your metric, that’s fine by me. But making the tournament to me won’t assuage my concerns over how we are playing the games and our offensive ineptitudes. Our poor hedging that teams have taken advantage of all B1G season, that Archie hasn’t fixed. Sent from my iPad using BtownBanners mobile app d mess 50 and Loaded Chicken Sandwich 2 Quote

RaceToTheTop Posted March 7, 2020 Posted March 7, 2020 USPS, you have Northern Iowa in or out? My opinion is at best, they are just in and won't survive stolen bids. Quote

Win at Colorado is getting worse by the game. I think Colorado has lost 4 in a row. Next best win is South Carolina. 3 Q3 losses.

Sent from my iPad using BtownBanners mobile app I just think it’s way off point to infer that we’re not significantly progressing under CAM when we’ve gone: 16-15 19-16 19-12 with a 20th very much teed up. And, recruiting is excellent. So, when the all-encompassing doom and gloom comes out when we lose a close game to an excellent team? It kinda cheeses me off.

I said it’s not JUST about making the tournament. I said making the tournament, won’t assuage my concerns vs not making the tournament. Of course I will take joy in making the dance and enjoy all the lead up and the game. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app Quote

I completely agree with the progressing when you look at the records. I won’t say he is recruiting has been great though. We had 5 kids in last years class and it looks like only 2 of them will be here next year. That class could have been the key to a better year over the last 2 years but we did not get enough from them to consider that class great. This years class had 1 great addition. That being said, I am mostly pleased with Archie’s recruiting but we have have not had enough success with his players to consider his recruiting to be great.

And, recruiting is excellent. So, when the all-encompassing doom and gloom comes out when we lose a close game to an excellent team? It kinda cheeses me off. My reactions after losses take into account the entire season and our play and how we’ve looked. If we reel off 5 straight wins and look good that would be taken into account. Imo we’ve had 4-5 games all year where we looked good. We’ve looked really bad in some. And even bad in many wins. The progress you see isn’t as apparent and as obvious to me. I’ll admit, it’s progressing and it’s better but to me it’s very minor. Recruiting I’d describe as good, definitely not excellent, especially taking all 3 classes into account.

It was compared to the casual fan, just as it was written. If that is taking myself too seriously, so be it. I do think I evaluate the game better than the casual fan, with my background and that I don’t miss a minute of the games. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app Quote
