I’m not trying to say analytics don’t matter but when you aren’t playing a similar schedule or opponents…well it’s not apples to apples. We played a much superior schedule. It ranked 29th vs 77th for Washington St. anyway my point is he will need to step up to both the offensive and defensive side of the ball coming to the B1G. I’m sure he can do it…but we all know the style of basketball from West coast to B1G is night and day.

Hopefully the "style" changes with our new big ten schools coming in.  It's not a coincidence the BIG doesn't have guards worth a hoot in March

Boys were strutting their stuff

That's a BIG ONE!  And where the hell ya been?

And I've spent way more time outdoors.  Hiking, fishing, working on food plots... I'll be checking in more often though!

Thank ya!  Took a break from IU basketball for a bit lol.

Hope you guys have all been well!

I haven't been on here in a bit. Took this guy opening day of firearm.  Had him at 40 yds the year prior,  bit couldn't get a shot with my bow.

How do you cook it?

Medium rare!!  

Wife and I smoked the bull sharks in pensacola.  Landed four, in under four hours. We were definitely tired, but a great time!

For you squeamish ladies 😉

Sorry fellas!  I have been slacking! 

Harmless water snake I believe Rico...

You were in no danger my friend 

Jesus, Race couldn't catch the clap in an all night where house

Might Need some Banks and Gunn.  Miami is too athletic on the perimeter

I have grown to appreciate Kopp's hustling aggressive D.  But, he is a big disappointment if his role is shooting 3s.  Even when he gets a good outlet pass and has an open look, he often hestitates/dribbles and ends up ruining an opportunity to score.  very weird behavior for a mature player in that position.  

He's a practice shooter. Doesn't have it in him when it actually matters.

We lead the league in shooting percentage and scoring so if you are going to come on here to complain at least he correct.  We also hit around 38% from 3.  It is so nice to see you on here after a loss because we missed you for most of the last couple of months

It's not the percentage.  It's the number of 3's taken...  we could double our attempts in that regard,  and it still wouldn't be leading the league. Woody has definitely made an impact, but he's limited on what he can do with the perimeter players on this team...  Hopefully he kills it in the portal

We have to shoot them first. 

Agreed.  Blows my mind the fella won't shoot more...  TJD, Woody tell Miller to shoot all the time.  3 attempts in the half

Poor perimeter play and no bench help. Early exit and hope like hell Woody can get some actual players

Kopp looking like young Lebron...  doesnt want the shot

What? 

Just saying we shouldn't boo players. Coaches are the one who insert then in to the game...  no real reason to boo at all, but definitely not a player

Boo birds never sound good..  But! 17k screaming WTF Race, may not go over well either 🤣  

I have no issue with fans lighting Woody up. He's the one putting Race in that position. 

No more Race.  Ride Malik, or go small

Race and Kopp need to hand out water bottles.  Give banks and Malik run

Woody should probably just go zone. He's bound and determined to play Kopp and Bates together.  May as well give them a shot of actually defending the perimeter.

not that i am really disagreeing, but we do realize Gunn is 1-3 with a TO right?

Way better on the defensive end. Our starting wings constantly get beat off the dribble, putting pressure on the paint leading to open 3's
