Seeking6 Posted June 24, 2022 Report Share Posted June 24, 2022 Welp if the 2016 game was any indicator of what our crowd might be like for North Carolina....Assembly just might implode this season. So glad we got this matchup. Two top 15 preseason teams with 2 of college basketball best players going head to head? Get your cash ready because these tickets are going to be pricey. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stlboiler23 Posted June 24, 2022 Report Share Posted June 24, 2022 Whoever is in charge of the matchups needs to mix some things up tbh. I know we couldn’t have Duke this year because we potentially could play them in the PK85 tournament but getting Florida State for the 3rd time in 5 years is just dumb and lazy imo. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like you won't get any of the 4 7/9pm time slots. Put your asses on the Deuce like you belong, infidel. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Hoosiers will also face defending national champion Kansas, along with Arizona and a team from the Big East as part of the Gavitt Games." The Gauntlet has been set. I'm sure IU will be at the top all season for having one of the toughest schedules 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JaybobHoosier Posted June 24, 2022 Report Share Posted June 24, 2022 Love playing UNC this year. Our team will be battle tested in the non-conference, but also in conference with the schedule they gave us. IU has a lot of work to do, but top programs should be able to handle it. This will be a true test for the Hoosiers this season. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It'll be a good matchup for us... They bring back 3 of their top 4 scorers, and added Pete Nance (who I think is at least the equal of the departed Brady Manek)... 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoosierfan1215 Posted June 24, 2022 Report Share Posted June 24, 2022 Good to have a non conference schedule like this and not have to worry about sos at the end of the year. We better come out and play otherwise we’re gonna get embarrassed and go into conference with 4-5 losses. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know Kopp is Pete's best friend. I'm surprised we didn't . As far as numbers go though, Nance 15 ppg 45% from 3 and 7 boards per game... Manek 15 ppg 40% from 3 6 boards per game Manek had a higher volume of shots from 3, but Nance is a better post up player, and a better defender (IMO) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Going into conference with 4 or 5 losses isn't a killer as long as we handle business in conference. This is one of those old Michigan State schedules that Izzo would have. You can take some licks early as long as you progress throughout the year. Edited June 24, 2022 by IUCrazy2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They lost some games, but made the final 4. With a veteran squad, I think you can learn and build. A young squad could have their confidence crushed. Guess we'll find out. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That same team got their doors blown off by Indiana in the tournament. Losing stinks, but when you have a good team (and we should) sometimes those early losses can pan out to better things later in the year. If a couple of pieces fall into place, I think we are a dark horse title contender. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What a HUGE game for the program and Assembly Hall will be as electric as it has been in MANY years! Will have to get to Bloomington very early to get into Nick's and that will contribute to a rowdy crowd at the game. Beer sales in Assembly Hall too this year? Whoa Nellie! I booked a couple rooms at the Graduate for that night and I only live 45 minutes away in Columbus, IN. Not sure I'll end up using the rooms but will feel better having the option. Go Hoosiers!!!!!! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
