Sent from my iPhone using BtownBannersHe's Young, not off putting, can recruit even at Virginia so I know that would translate to the next level. He was a big miss.

I think he'd be a God to the traditional Indiana ball-style people. I enjoy watching defensive games in the 50's just as much as watching a well played game in the 90's.

Sent from my iPad using BtownBanners It just stinks that two of the coaches that seem like they're tailor-made for IU (Stevens and Bennett) and would almost certainly get IU back to truly elite, will probably never pan out.

Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners I'm going to guess that posters on here that call his offense boring are younger because his offense is as close to IU's old offense that won a lot of games. A lot of cutting, screening and ball movement to get the open man a look Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners hsrtxp, WayneFleekHoosier and GloryDays 3 Quote

I'd find his offense refreshing compared to what we have now, plus the defense. Granted, "fun to watch" means less than nothing to me. ALASKA HOOSIER and Class of '66 Old Fart 2 Quote

Not many people my age seem to like methodical defensive basketball. And that isn't a "WOOOO INDIANA BALL, SON" thing, I just love defense whether it's basketball or football. Give me 55-53 or 10-7 any day. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners Quote

Hoosier Guy Posted January 29, 2017 Posted January 29, 2017 Yeah Tony Bennett is a pretty good HC. If you can win at UVA, you can certainly win at IU. His teams do play a hell of a good defense too ALASKA HOOSIER and BGleas 2 Quote

Sent from my iPhone using BtownBannersIt is not like his offense isn't efficient. Virginia is 16th in adjusted efficiency (IU is 12th), defense Virginia is 4th (IU is 152nd).

WayneFleekHoosier Posted January 29, 2017 Posted January 29, 2017 Just because. When and if Virginia loses this game my opinion doesn't change on Bennett. Just putting it out there. Wright and Bennett are both top 10 coaches. Been a great game. Sent from my iPad using BtownBanners ALASKA HOOSIER and BGleas 2 Quote
