I have pretty thick skin but even I shudder as a parent on what some people have posted about our players. Sure there an acceptable threshold for everything. Name calling or wishing I'll of someone isn't acceptable. But saying someone played a terrible basketball game or saying a coach isn't earning his 7 figure salary comes with the territory.

It was shown the reason Archie could not clean was the APR hit it would have caused. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EvilleHoosier Posted January 19, 2019 Report Share Posted January 19, 2019 Did I watch the game? I could ask you the same thing. McRoberts had 4 points on 6 shots. That's not great, but he shot the ball and that is what we need from him. We can't go 4 against 5 on offense. If we had won this game, would you have the same take on his game today?

ND was an NIT team last year. I believe they were missing 2 of their starters so no. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are forced to play with those shortcomings. Unfortunately, I'm not sure if/when we will have those missing ingredients. It’s going to take time and some recruiting classes.

IDK, but I do believe he kept Fitzner on the bench and got Anderson and Moore some minutes/experience. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rico Posted January 19, 2019 Report Share Posted January 19, 2019 These are my takes.... 1) I think the fellas played with heart. 2) The charity stripe really hurt them. Seems like this a team issue. 3) Mackey is a tough place to play if you are IU 4) I still want to punch Haarms in the face. With that being said there are so many things I don't understand about Archie. You are down double digits with 8 to go and your guys are attacking the paint? Why no press? Why weren't guys shooting 3's? What is with the substitution pattern? Why is McBob even out there? This ain't Dayton. This ain't the A-10.

Colson played and then got hurt in a later game. He even almost made a game tying heave. They came in to that game ranked and would have been a tourney team without Colson's injury.

As he played he got better and played with some emotion, as everyone wants. We looked pretty good with him in the game. What did he do that impressed you? He didn’t even score and got lost on D numerous times. I’m not bashing the kid and have repeatedly said I love his potential. You just can’t play someone who doesn’t know the system very much.

I'm not one of those people, trust me. It wasnt politics, it's a fact. It has nothing to do with party. Since the social media age, our president, regardless of party, is attacked by morons on social media. Just pointing out nobody is above petty, immature criticism.

The thing you are talking about is that a scholarship is guaranteed you for 4 years but not a roster spot. This Bill was put in mainly guaranteed a player a scholarship if he can't finish is career due to injury. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He also doesn't have anywhere near out talent level this season. It's just beyond comical at this point that Archie still doesn't have a single signature win. Mack got one early on as did Holtmann. I'm still behind Archie but man am I starting to have doubts. He absolutely has to make the tourney this season. I agree on the tourney part. That would inexplicable to have our roster and miss tourney. I do think we get some momentum when schedule lightens up some later this year.

KoB2011 Posted January 19, 2019 Report Share Posted January 19, 2019 Archie doesn't seem to believe in free flowing basketball; he wants everything to be extremely disciplined and structured. This results in a lot of hesitation and discomfort from our players, they seem to be thinking a lot more than playing. This structure can work when we have a team of talented upperclassmen, but that ain't us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
