Has anyone mentioned 3pt shooting yet? Havent heard anything about it all offseason. 

No, is that a concern or something?

It shouldn't be since IU won 4 of its 5 championships without 3-point shooting so it can't be that important. :coffee:

I hope this next year sees a giant leap for Tamar Bates.  I'm a little bearish based on what I saw last season (not much, frankly), but I'm encouraged by the chatter.  Hopefully, Bates stops screwing around and gets serious about basketball and his education.  If he does, I expect great things from him.  If he doesn't, I'm OK with seeing him in the transfer portal.

Agree Bates has to play ALOT better!!

I believe that TJD said in an interview that when he was training for the draft combine in LA, Bates was also there working on his skills

Maybe the responsibility of a new child will be a motivation.

What I’m looking for is the confidence and more loose play we saw in the BTT. I tend to think the shooting follows the confidence and not the other way around. 

I’m also interested to see the team chemistry with the departure of some that seemed to not be as locked in or committed as we need the players to be.
