5fouls Posted November 29, 2021 Report Share Posted November 29, 2021 (edited) This is interesting. Apparently, Colgate fell behind 17-2 at the start and missed their first 11 three point attempts. https://www.tapatalk.com/groups/colgatesports/syracuse-t335-s10.html Edited November 29, 2021 by 5fouls Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IU Scott Posted November 30, 2021 Report Share Posted November 30, 2021 To me the difference in this years Syracuse team and the zone is that they don't have the length they usually do. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be honest, the Syracuse Zone has taken down more talented programs than IU over the last 30 years. To say any high school coach should be able to beat it just to take a dig at Coach Crean is a bit much. Yeah, we should have won that game and possible been in the final that year, but Syracuse has always been tough to beat, for everyone. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fundamentals Posted November 30, 2021 Report Share Posted November 30, 2021 IU has to be patient. Watched VCU play Syracuse this past week in the Battle 4 Atlantis. VCU was patient, worked the middle of the zone, found creases and took quality shots. Add to that timely and quality shots from 3, and I think IU will be fine. Guard their shooters tightly. Overall length and athleticism is not close to what is the norm for Syracuse. Defend, rebound, patient on offense = WIN. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Billingsley99 Posted November 30, 2021 Report Share Posted November 30, 2021 Race and Trayce just need to fill the middle and short corner and we will be fine. Post passing will be a big key. Catch the ball ready to shoot don't be hesitant. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iuprof Posted November 30, 2021 Report Share Posted November 30, 2021 IU is now favored by 2.5 pts. That is a significant move. Lot of money going on the Hoosier side! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's played 138 minutes (3rd most on the team behind Trayce and Race). Parker is too slow to get past his man to get to the foul line. He is purely a catch and shoot guy. Don't get me wrong...we NEED that kind of shooter...but his speed is a liability...and he is never someone that will scare anyone into fouling him. You just run him off the 3pt line. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You just run him off the 3pt line. He takes up room though...😉 hard for his man to get around him...i like having different people on bench... You could have the two Proto typical guards that are usually small but are quick and get to the basket but it's kind of nice to have a different tool in case you play somebody different so for him to be so much different than say Landers I kinda like it....it's like having a straight screwdriver a Phillips screwdriver and a star screwdriver ...

Parker knows his roll and to this point has filled it quite well. If he just keeps doing what he has been ill be happy. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A second thought would be that since the outside games of Trayce and Race haven't developed as we would have thought, there's not a lot of room for us to dribble drive as much as we would like...I think he can do it (as cited in his UT-Martin time above), but with the team he's on, he's better suited (as you said) spotting up and making 3s...
