IU vs. Eastern Illinois Gameday Thread

On a side note, these student announcers are super awkward. The sideline interviews were some of the most awkward Ive ever seen

Good opening night performance.  I loved our interior dominance.  No doubt we can hit the three--but we seemed to do it better AFTER we got it inside first.  Guards and Troy were solid as expected but I really like TB and Max inside.  OG had some bursts and Collin had a tough shooting night.

Now go update another thread.

We were only 5-17 from 3 in second half.  Can you imagine what we will be like on a hot shooting night.

15-16 team trying to give TB the ball is like the 12-13 team trying to give Cody the ball.

I was one that yelled at the team to get Cody the ball but........
If TB looks at the stats he will see:
2012-2013.
Cody LED BT big men in scoring at 16.5 a game.
He led BT big men even though IU had a lot of perimeter scoring.
He had zero 3 pointers while all other top 15 scorers had 20 or more 3 pointers (ie mostly perimeter players) and 10 of the 15 had over 40.
Cody at 16.5 outscored future NBA players like VO (13.6), Gary Harris (12.9) and Hardaway (14.5)
After his year of "extreme mis-use" he went 4th in the NBA draft.
Again, I yelled at the TV numerous times to "get the ball to Cody" but the results were not as bad as we remembered.

AS far as NV....he had no idea how to post up effectively and never learned (maybe was not properly taught) how to post up.
The passing angles he presented to the guards were horrible.

Garbage time is so weird. It's like watching our team if we were from somewhere terrible like Mississippi.

I was recently in Mississippi.
It is Nirvana if you are extremely obese, ride a scooter with a big gulp cup holder and chain smoke.
