If it did, don't get me wrong I would be very happy.. But i think 19-21 wins is the most realistic for this team, maybe 22 So you are saying that the only resson 41-0 is off the table is because we can't actually play that many games.

Reminds me of when we lost to Eastern Washington and Crean told us they were gonna win their conference to deflect the embarrassment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Feathery Posted November 11, 2017 Report Share Posted November 11, 2017 12-13 wins this year. I was hoping for 18-22. Not going to happen. The reality is we won 18 last year and lost 3 NBA players, ouch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NCHoosier32 Posted November 11, 2017 Report Share Posted November 11, 2017 was really hoping to be wrong on this one, but we have to understand that it will take Archie a little time to get this program where we want it. need top talent. Garland or Langford please. i think we got a glimpse why no one other than our fans projected us any better than 7th in the B1G. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think this team is going to get better, but they were never a 25-win team. I love the unbridled optimism...I just hate seeing it crushed after one game. IU is not as bad as they showed last night, but they're not yet as good as some of you expected. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Indykev Posted November 12, 2017 Author Report Share Posted November 12, 2017 The 12 that picked under 20 great job. The 4 that picked over 24, what the hell were you thinking? Two years from now when Romeo and Garland are Soph's and DeRon is a Senior then we might be able to say over 24. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
5fouls Posted November 12, 2017 Report Share Posted November 12, 2017 I had us 30-1, with the only blemish being a 21 point blowout loss to Indiana State. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snozzwangers_und_covfefe Posted November 13, 2017 Report Share Posted November 13, 2017 Well, I know Kenpom means less early in the year, but now has us projected at 13-17, 6-12 in the BiG. Bright side is we're projected to beat IPFW this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Once they get a better feel for Archie's system, I expect they will be significantly better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IowaHoosierFan Posted November 14, 2017 Report Share Posted November 14, 2017 i think we win about 15 this year. And really need to land Romeo for next year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cohete15 Posted November 14, 2017 Report Share Posted November 14, 2017 Yea I believe KenPom is purely statistical. We could easily finish 13-17, we could also lose more games. But the stats can’t account for continued improvement that I believe will happen. I don’t think Archie is going to put up with BS for too long. But if, out of the gate, Archie was benching guys we expected to play big minutes, we would all be scratching our heads. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yup and I know the accuracy is much less early in the season, since there's not a large sample size to work with. Just throwing it out there was all. I still think we can manage 17-20, with the optimist in me thinking 20. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am assuming we get Hartman back fairly soon, and that he stays healthy. He will help. This team has enough talent to get to 18 wins, and I'm not reading too much into where the team is now. This team will grow as they get acclimated to CAM's schemes and style. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KoB2011 Posted November 14, 2017 Report Share Posted November 14, 2017 I still think we can make the tournament. We've got an enviable frontcourt and senior guards. I know the senior guards have disappointed thus far, but I do think they'll step up. I'm a big fan of Durham, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
