kyhoosier29 Posted March 14, 2022 Report Share Posted March 14, 2022 We SHOULD win this game without ifs, ands, or buts scenarios. They are small on the inside and don’t shoot it great from the outside. No excuses! Let’s get it done, then go show how overrated St Mary’s is. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's turning 18 this week, so I'm hoping he feels comfortable telling mom that basketball is more important than having Uncle Cletus and Aunt Millie over for cake and ice cream. Happy 18th to "Little 5Fouls!" Like @Inequalitymentioned already, let's see some pics of that new sports car you bought him (or horse)! 😀 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Play like we are capable of playing and silence the critics! Be proud gentlemen but also be humble. The worst part about playing in this game is if you win we have to fly all the way to Portland and play Thursday 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CaptKirkHaston Posted March 14, 2022 Report Share Posted March 14, 2022 It looks like they shoot similar %’s to us. I watched a few of their game highlight videos. We can’t sag off their shooters. Trayce and Race should have a lot of opportunities. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SawatchHoosier Posted March 14, 2022 Report Share Posted March 14, 2022 (edited) Here's the highlights from the Wyoming Vs. Boise State (Eventual Winner) Mountain West Semi-finals. I watched this game a couple days ago. Wyoming allowed the Boise State bigs to pass out to their shooters. I feel like Kopp, Parker, XJ, Bates and Phinesee should have ample opportunity to hit threes if Wyoming packs it in against Davis and Thompson. Just my 2 cents. Also, if there was a game where Durr could play a big part this could it. He has the body and strength to dominate their big men in the post.

HoosierDom Posted March 14, 2022 Report Share Posted March 14, 2022 There big man looks slow footed and not exactly Cockburn strong - I think TJD is going to have a field day. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coach Robby Posted March 14, 2022 Report Share Posted March 14, 2022 Pissed off about our seeding, but my opinion is irrelevant. We’re in the dance, have a chance to win a nearby home game, and make some realistic noise. Let’s go and win 2-3 games and see what unfolds 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoosierfan1901 Posted March 14, 2022 Report Share Posted March 14, 2022 Ike (19.6 ppg) and Maldonado (18.4 ppg) averages like 3 fouls a game. Maldonado averages a whopping 37 minutes per game. Looks like their main. 3PT shooter is Jeffries Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gnet550 Posted March 14, 2022 Report Share Posted March 14, 2022 Just watched the first half highlights…looks like their big guy isn’t overly athletic, more of a Durr, banger type. Lefty, but there was one play where he got a nice pass and was 3 feet from the basket and laid it in with no defense. Any of our big guys would flush that baby…athletically our bigs are going to be tough guards for them. Boise States big guy seemed to have his way scored double figures, and he didn’t look like anything special, just a solid player. my guess is they will dig hard on our bugs and like severs games if we can get our Guards plus Kopp to hit 7+ threes combined, we will win going away. If they make 4-6 it’ll be a dog fight..if they shoot poorly we will lose…just my opinion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoosierfan1901 Posted March 14, 2022 Report Share Posted March 14, 2022 (edited) It appears that Brendan Wenzel has a low down injury.
