Beachfront Property Posted October 28, 2016 Posted October 28, 2016 I want to give a strong endorsement of the Haunted Hall of Hoops and believe this event deserves its own thread. I personally have always enjoyed this event much more than Hoosier Hysteria (and I don't have kids!). The scrimmage at the Haunted Hall of Hoops is always excellent. It is much longer than the HH scrimmage and it has a much more competitive feel. Whereas the HH scrimmage had a no defense/highlight reel feel - the Haunted Hall of Hoops scrimmage has a feel of players competing for playing time. Also, the Haunted Hall of Hoops always has much lower attendance so you can see the team play from the 5th row. Even if you show up right as the scrimmage is starting. I'll leave you with my all-time favorite Haunted Hall of Hoops memory - which is when Guy-Marc Michel absolutely dominated. I thought he was the big man we needed. He must have had 20 pts and 10 rebs in the scrimmage (at least that is how I will always remember it). Anyhow, we all know how GMM worked out. IUsafety, LIHoosier and lillurk 3 Quote

Dalton26 Posted October 29, 2016 Posted October 29, 2016 So apparently Rob Johnson went off during the scrimmage. Anyone there have any details? ALASKA HOOSIER 1 Quote

From all the tweets and reports, he 'went off' as in dominated. 22 pts in the combined scrimmages. There were mentions that Deron tweaked his ankle. Also, I fear IU may have committed an NCAA violation by letting Larry Brown within 100 yards of an intercollegiate faciilty. Dalton26, HoosierAloha, ALASKA HOOSIER and 2 others 5 Quote

Kid is wetSent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile appIt isn't about threes or nets really with him. It is about D and the rest of the game. Glad to hear he had at least one steal. Hopefully he can greatly improve those parts of his game ALASKA HOOSIER 1 Quote

Hopefully he can greatly improve those parts of his game I think the biggest favor to his defense will be the in game calls made by CTC. Too many times our players seem to not know what the hell they are doing. Half in zone, half in man. Defense is a team effort Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app Quote

Hopefully he can greatly improve those parts of his game If JBJ records 0 steals on the year but doesn't allow his man around him that is a huge win. OG, JMo, JN, RoJo, and others will take care of the steals while playing sound defense. JBJ just needs to stay in front of his man, period. Alford Bailey and ALASKA HOOSIER 2 Quote
