It just is not fun so putting two hours into something that isn't fun when I am surrounded by other forms of entertainment just seems like a waste. For me bad IU game is more entertaining than watching reality TV or reruns. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArizonaHoosier Posted February 22, 2022 Report Share Posted February 22, 2022 I do not know what the disfunction is with team nor do I profess to know. I will leave that to the more knowledgeable posters of HSN to make their arguments. I do agree that is a combination of the players in today's game, coaching in today's game, and an institutional arrogance in today's game. Which one has a bigger impact is far beyond my knowledge level. But, I do find it disheartening when my boys are up late in the second half and continue to stumble over themselves securing a victory. I see so much positive with these players and then I see so much negative as well. When will this end? Help us Obi One Kenobi, you're only hope.

The frustration right now is 2 decades worth of stuff. Not just this year....but to see our kids so close so many times and to fall short is frustrating as heck. There will be better days just not on the timeline most want in today's world. Happens everywhere though. My tax attorney is a Sparty fan she said to me last week If you back out the 19 team Izzo has 2 tourney wins since 2016 it has to get better. Look at Underwood....year 5 on the job he has one tourney win. Could go on and on. Woodson will get us there. Never been this confident in the Macro in 2 decades. Just takes time. 11 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You played O$U even with 6 players because those 2 set a physical tone especially on defense I want both back with the assumption they’ll be PART of the offense, not all of the offense. I have zero interest in watching these two back guys down while our perimeter guys stand around doing nothing. If the offense is going to be the same, no thanks, I’m ready to move on. Call me an idiot. I don’t care. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Call me an idiot. I don’t care. I like both players. They are obviously the strength of the team. These guys also have great character. The unfortunate thing is they don't have ideal synergy. Both operate best near the basket. Neither is particularly long. You'd like a longer guy who can step out and consistently shoot to complement the other. Yes, Race tries to step away and stretch the floor, but he's shooting 25% from 3 so defenses don't take him particularly seriously. Different subject, but I would be trying to get Kopp more looks. We got a glimpse in the second half yesterday what he can do and then he inexplicably didn't come back in the game. He's a senior who has demonstrated that he can score in this league. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dbmhoosier Posted February 23, 2022 Report Share Posted February 23, 2022 I wonder if there's truth to what's being said on Btownbanners that Woody only listens to NBA guys and not Fife and Matta and that Fife might be moving on after the season. Would make a lot of sense. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe at this stage of his career, he could be an assistant to keep himself busy. I would not be averse to finding him a role. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rogue3542 Posted February 23, 2022 Report Share Posted February 23, 2022 Just a quick reminder that we were 12-15 last year, and never were more than three games over .500. We are currently 16-10 after losing five straight over our toughest stretch of the season. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
