Pemsl is not averaging a lot of points. But he plays 22 mpg. And reading the Iowa boards, does a ton of things that don't show up on the scoreboard. Including protecting the baseline. Addition by subtraction. They will just use more Kreener. Pemsl has really regressed this year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arrested for OWI last season, and suspended for more than just one game. We went through this with Sampson. Glad we are not going through it again. Iowa is a real party school. Happens to allot of their athletes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CincyHoosier Posted February 11, 2020 Report Share Posted February 11, 2020 There is still time but something drastic needs to change. I'll be on my way south to Florida during the game so cant watch. Naturally, they'll probably play their best game in months 😂. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bronkonagurski Posted February 11, 2020 Report Share Posted February 11, 2020 Currently I am just thinking of the t-shirts Joe Maddon had made for the Cubs a few years back. 'Try not to suck' Just trying to add some levity here. 🍻 For my own sake, if nothing else. Trying not to get bummed out. This would be a huge win to get in the bank.

Pemsl has really regressed this year While Pemsl isn’t putting up flashy numbers, he was one of 3 post players Iowa has that plays. Without him, they are basically a 7 man rotation with Kreener and Garza being the only guys able to defend the post and rebound. If IU could get either one in foul trouble, it would really open up the paint. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It could also force them to go with more guards and wings which means more 3 point shooting. And since we haven't shown the ability to feed the post at all consistently, i don't think they are too worried about it. We will do what we always do and try to out shoot them from the 3. This game comes down to how well we play defense on the 3 pointer. Let Garza score 40, who cares. If we keep their shooters to a normal night, we can keep this one close and pull out a winner Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At this point i wouldnt care if we played 5 on 3 the whole game because the rest of their team had gout flare ups. We need to score more points in 40 minutes than the team we are playing does and to a point, I dont really care how that happens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They will go with more guards/wings and we will get lit up from 3 like we do from every other team in the conference. Some no name will come off the bench and look like a super star draining 3s like he’s never done before 🙄 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IU Scott Posted February 13, 2020 Report Share Posted February 13, 2020 For some reason I have a good feeling about tonight's game. I think this will be our best offensive game since the Maryland home game. Some of that has to do with Iowa have not been playing defense well on the road and we are just do.

BDB Posted February 13, 2020 Report Share Posted February 13, 2020 It was -10 here in Iowa this morning. Hopefully, this cold weather impacts the Hawks shooting. However, I have a bad feeling Weezy & Fredrickson are gonna go nuts against this defense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately i won't be watching the game. Will be following the score though, so i hope it is all IU all night Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Side note: Joey should have never cut his hair, the majority of the teams slide I blame on his hair Not too optimistic about this game, hence why I will DVR it. I mean if this team couldn't get up in front of a packed house, RMK returning, as well as former IU greats, plus playing our arch rival, I don't know what to expect.....

NCHoosier32 Posted February 13, 2020 Report Share Posted February 13, 2020 i really don't know what i think will happen tonight, but i do think things are going to be very very ugly if we lose. the next two are on the road and we'd have 5 losses in a row.

Parakeet Jones Posted February 13, 2020 Report Share Posted February 13, 2020 The term must win gets thrown around a lot, but this one really feels like a must win. Win tonight and we are still on track for 9-11 in the B1G by winning out at home, 10-10 if we can pull a rabbit out of our hats and get one more on the road. Either scenario should get us in. Lose tonight and we are on pace for 8-12 just by winning out at home and would need two more on the road to get to 10-10. 8-12 might be enough, but I wouldn't bet on it, plus getting two more on the road feels like a bridge to far to cross.
