Rojo didn't seem to have the role...what do you think? I wasn't too impressed. He handled the ball well n did ok setting up some big plays but I expected a lil more from him after all the talk I've heard about him since last season. He does D up well he just needs to get more comfortable with the offense n that will come with more game time I hope. Still can't believe he missed that wide open layup out of the out of bounds play. hoosierpap 1 Quote

Rojo didn't seem to have the role...what do you think? Rojo had a terrible game. That's how he started out last year. Fairly confident he'll fix it. I like Josh defensively (as long as it's not against Frank Freakin' Mason). We have been a very good offensive team without a true point (JH, Verdell, and Vic started in 11-12.) Not optimum, but it'll work. lillurk 1 Quote
HoosierAloha Posted November 12, 2016 Posted November 12, 2016 What about Deron hitting a couple big free throws? Confidence builder.Two freshmen (CuJo, DD) stepped up at the end of the game and each knocked down two free throws towards the end of overtime. RoJo struggled with his down the stretch of regulation. These freshmen have no fear. Quote
WayneFleekHoosier Posted November 12, 2016 Posted November 12, 2016 When I followed DDavis in recruiting he shot his free throws very well. 11-13 and such was not atypical. I was surprised at his Free Throws in exhibition because of this. He has good touch and will be a good foul shooter. Wasn't a fluke. Side note. I really like Cujos bounce when he dribbles. Very shifty. Sent from my iPad using BtownBanners thebigweave, HoosierAloha and CR3AMnCR1MS0N 3 Quote

FortWayneHoosier Posted November 12, 2016 Posted November 12, 2016 Gotta work on free throws big time. That is really my only complaint, what a game. Curtis jones is fantastic, James Blackmon played the best game since he's been here in my memory at least, just a fun game. HOO HOO HOO HOOSIERSSent from my iPhone using BtownBanners Quote
Stuhoo Posted November 12, 2016 Posted November 12, 2016 Geez...when did Tom Crean become the coach that players would run through a brick wall for, and the ultimate offense technician?!? MartintheMopMan, CR3AMnCR1MS0N, lillurk and 3 others 6 Quote

yogisballin Posted November 12, 2016 Posted November 12, 2016 We out rebounded them 56-41. Ok, I'm excited about this years team! Our bench play was solid fellas. CuJo's spark was nice lift offensively. JMor is just SOLID. Devonte doesn't look like he done much in box score but love his defense. De'Ron will get there, I'm going to love this kid!

cappymo14 Posted November 12, 2016 Posted November 12, 2016 I may stay up and watch that again. Great win. Just found a way. I like that. That game, exciting as it was, should not have gone to overtime. Freebies nearly cost us. The officiating was very poor imo. We had an answer for every run they made. Stayed close all game. And won the hard points. Very good rebounding. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app Quote
