FWIUFan Posted February 8, 2019 Report Share Posted February 8, 2019 Third HOME loss! Seriously! Knowing how important this game was. Season most likely over. Doubt NCAA again this year. Glad I sold my remaining tickets after the Michigan debacle. Hard to watch this team as it goes thru the necessary reorganization and growth necessary to play in CAM's system. Still think we are 2 years away from the consistency we all yearn for. The youth and lack of depth has really been exposed during the BIG season. Simply unable to put together 40 min of BB together. Lack of culture and senior leadership killed this season. Current woes due to no talented 3-4 yr players in the system. DG: Never will be reliable. Fire and Ice JM: Foul trouble simply insurmountable JS: Inconsistent. Cannot maintain intensity on D and simply not a skilled offensive player DD: Add 15pt to loss if unavailable. JF: Good energy. Just too small and young Fitz: Simply not the player we thought RL: Too many lazy passes. Took too much time to get going RP: Good game Al: Hardest working. Most reliable. True hoosier. Love watching him improve. CAM: Don't get too enamored with Star Gazing. We need SHOOTERS not SCORERS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Indykev Posted February 8, 2019 Report Share Posted February 8, 2019 We are not a top 25 team and wont be beating any. We caught MSU on the right night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bowhunter Posted February 8, 2019 Report Share Posted February 8, 2019 I hate the packline Defense.. Yes back in the day when teams only had one or two outside Shooters, it worked. Now days a team like Iowa just kills it. I don’t think this defense is the future of this program. Iowa’s zone definitely caused us problems. I’m surprised every team doesn’t play that since we suck from the outside. I’m tired of scoring 60 points a game and walking it up the floor.

dgambill Posted February 8, 2019 Report Share Posted February 8, 2019 I also feel like Archie doesn’t value the 3 pt shot. He puts little value recruiting kids that excell at it...and this team doesn’t defend it. I mean if you are down 9 you have to get 5 stops and scores to get it back to even and yet if you score 3s you only need 3 stops. We see it time and again. We get down...we get stop after stop after stop to get the lead to a 1 possession game and in two possessions suddenly it’s like 4 to 5 possession game again because we can only score 2s and it’s gone from 3 to 9 pts and it will take 5 more possessions. Anyways we all know this and it goes without saying we need some shooting on this team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The gift that keeps on giving. As inconsistent as Devonte was, he wasn't the main reason we gave up 42 points in the first half. This game was really lost in the first half.

kyhoosier29 Posted February 8, 2019 Report Share Posted February 8, 2019 Until next year folks..... in all I honesty, I said it after Friday’s win, people needed to check their excitement bc nothing with this team changed... only made shots. We make some shots tonight, we win. Seem to be pretty unlucky too. How many times has a player hit a bulls*** three at the end of a half, game, shot clock, etc against us this year?

I can't believe how many times i've seen a team come to AH in the last two years and get comfortable shooting from three. Also, I don't know much, but how come it is so easy for teams to feed the post against us. I thought I used to hear commentators say you have to challenge the entry pass and make it difficult. Our defense seems designed to make every team comfortable rather than nervous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoosierburgh Posted February 8, 2019 Report Share Posted February 8, 2019 This team seems to play hard...75 % of the time. They appear to be playing together...75% of the time. The coaching staff seems to be on top of their game 60 % of the time. The above inconsistencies in combination with a poor shooting team = where we're at today. We need a few Bohannons.

Can't win anything the way the game is played now if you can't defend the three I disagree. Indiana has allowed teams to shoot 31.6% on the year which ranks 61 in the nation. Besides those two Iowa players who shot a combined 9-14 the rest of Iowa shot 1-11 on threes. edit: The issue this season has always been the offense.

Damezei was supposed to be a shooter, might still be one. Phinisee is a solid shooter. Hunter is rumored to be a shooter. So Archie brought in 3 shooters in his first class. Sounds like we have one coming in next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BGleas Posted February 8, 2019 Report Share Posted February 8, 2019 Iowa’s 3pt shooting had nothing to do with the pack line defense. It’s not like the game plan was to let Bohannon shoot. The dude was hitting 3pt shots at the shot-clock buzzer 5 steps behind the line with a hand in his face. Justin Smith had three 3’s hit in his face because he had his hands down at his side and not in the shooters face. Other thoughts... - Green was awful offensively tonight. Lazy passes, terrible shots, etc. - Morgan is a senior, he needs to be better with the fouls. He’s letting his team down. Cook is out there playing just as hard physical, but so much smarter. Don’t get me wrong, I love Morgan, but some of the foul trouble shouldn’t be happening. - Bohannon was the best player on the court tonight, Cook second. - Phinisee was really good. He had some freshmen mistakes, but he was solid. - I love Langford, I really do, he played great D in the second half, but there’s just something about him that’s missing for me. Maybe it’s the 3pt shooting? I don’t know, but I’ve said this before but he reminds of a high volume scoring guard in the NBA that puts up points but doesn’t really impact the game. I never enter a game thinking ‘we’ve got Langford, we got this game”. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
