  1. I hate the end of game foul fest. Blatant intentional fouls that are not stopping a shot etc should be treated like technicals. Fouling prior to the ball being inbounded or 90 feet from the basket is BS.
  2. I was thinking the same thing. Not to mention having a triple threat like Ivey.
  3. In the last minute or so of a game if a team fouls prior to the ball being inbounded and/or prior to the ball crossing center court the team on offense should get the free throws and retain possession (like a technical).
  4. He has been coach for 1/2 season and is going to tell us something the the 1,000th time?!?!??? OK
  5. I think we should start giving IU men’s basketball coaches 10 day contracts similar to what the NBA offers to marginal players. That would give us the opportunity to evaluate 12-15 coaches per year.
  6. Man that team recruited talent. 7 IU guys played at least 20 minutes in that game. 4/7 were McDonalds All-Americans, another guy was a Parade All American plus Cheaney.
  7. I agree and liked your post even though it’s not easy for me to like “Dawg Bawls” during my lunch….LOL
  8. You might enjoy the first half. The second half……….ugly
  9. We have 1, 2 and threes that do some things well but not consistently well. Rob defends, Stewart hits 3’s sometimes, X sometimes runs the offense in a controlled manner, etc. We have “guys” at the 1/2/3 but one of our biggest weaknesses is that we do not have a single consistent, all-around (3 level shooter that can get his own shot and defend) “go-to” player at the 1,2 or 3 positions. Ideally we would have that type of player in 2 of those positions but we don’t have one. I’m not saying we don’t have the talent to beat PSU etc on the road but our ceiling is not as high as we would like due to lack of dependable “go-to” guys.
  10. And he better find a “big” to bring with him.
  11. He does play good D. Unfortunately, on any given night it’s difficult to predict how he will do on offense.
  12. Rob and X were a combined 3-12 from the field with 8 TO’s. We keep hoping this is the season that one or both of them can CONSISTENTLY run the team in an efficient manner, hit some perimeter shots and play decent defense. Newsflash…..between them they have been playing D1 ball for seemingly 16 years and at this point “they are what they are” and I anticipate their roller coaster ride will last all season. I just hope JHS can play point at the D1 level next year.
  13. Pre-season I incorrectly thought Bates would be a starter by now. He has been going through some non-basketball things but man he just looks like he is just wildly flinging the ball when he shoots and his reputed “dog mentality” is not apparent. He is, of course, only a freshman and hopefully he gets it together.
  14. The tourney is still in our grasp. Is this another play KL request?
  15. We shot 51% from the field and lost. Iowa is a crappy rebounding team, had guys in foul trouble yet had 20 offensive boards. Not to mention 22 to’s. It’s frustrating that it seems we should be 4-0 on the road but at some point the record is the record. Lets beat NE.
  16. We did a good job running the clock down…LOL
  17. Why the F is he repeatedly one of two guys breaking the press.
  18. In the second half we have scored 18 points in 16 minutes……Ugh
  19. Offensive boards, turnovers and apparently it is Race’s job to break the press.
  20. Rob has had some good games lately. This has not been one of them.
  21. Yep, TJD needed a breather after 4 1/2 minutes ???
  22. Man…the offensive boards we are giving up.
  23. Very bad 0-10 segment with the hockey line change and a sloppy last 3 minutes but still up 7. Lots a good ball between those two segments. The phantom foul on Bohannon was a 4 point play the refs gave to calm down the Franamal was total BS but I’ll take the 7 points and assume we won’t see a hockey line change in the second half.
  24. This team has potential. Sorry if this is a stupid statement but… when we are good we are good.
