Somewhat off topic, but this game would certainly be a determining fact; would you rather us(finally) win the big ten tournament and potentially get moved to the 3 line? Or are you fine being on the 4 line, playing in the South with potential regional games being played in Louisville? 

Jordan’s time/opportunity is coming. Hopefully Woody reemphasizes that with him in the coming weeks. That doesn’t mean that someone else won’t come in and outwork him next year, but I do believe that he’ll get much more opportunities next season. Woody has shortened the bench for almost all of Big Ten play… with blowouts being the exception. 
 

Edit: To add to this; I thought JG did a helluva job filling the gap while Race was out. His energy was the spark that we needed after the mid season slump that we endured.

JHS played a much better 2nd half. Loved the bench effort from Tamar and Malik too. However, TJD quietly has another outstanding performance.

Get Race outta there FAST!!

If we can hang on, remember the spark that Bates and Malik provided. Their energy on both ends have been huge.

How in the world is that not a charge???

Tamar flippin’ Bates!!!

We have to be better at the line if we’re ever going to win one of these.

Surprised at how few open shots IU gets when TJD is doubled almost every time he touches the ball. Then you notice not many of his teammates actually move when he has the ball. It's almost a still painting.

Instead of skipping the rock, he’s been kicking it right back out where it came from. He has to be better. He’s an all American 

Holy sh!t… look what happens when you move the damn ball. 

Jalen needs an earful after those last two possessions. Good lord that’s awful.

It’d be nice to see Miller and Trey get some open looks from the perimeter. Hopefully Woody tells Jalen that 5 on 5 is better than 1 or 2 on 5 at the half. Better ball movement will open up what he’s trying to do.

Gotta start crashing the boards. I’ve already seen more offensive rebounds than I care to tonight.

Geronimo looked completely lost there.

Hit some free throws here Trayce, come on. 

Good lord, move the fn ball. Pick and roll is fine on occasion, but not every single possession. 

I like the energy, but we need better ball movement on the perimeter.

As much as I like to stay up to date on all things IU… I must confess, I may go weeks sometime, without checking in on you fellas. The Archie tenure was rough.

We've wanted him since Page 4, Dano!😆

Sorry bro! I can’t keep up! 

Wing Chris Ledlum of Harvard is a name to watch. He averaged 18.8 points and 8.5 rebounds this season.

At least we’re active, Kev!

I'm in the CJ Gunn fan club. This year he just ran into minutes by others and I fully expect him to make a big jump next year. I saw him put up 30+ routinely against as tough as competition the state has to offer. I could see a jump like what his old comrade Tony Perkins did.

Hit the weights and if nobody else wants to step up maybe he will. 

 

I also like Gunn, but he’s going to have to be a first in, last out guy all off season if he hopes to get involved. He showed flashes at times, but not enough yet, in terms of me buying his stock for next season. I hope he does though! He’s long and athletic enough to be a nice piece! 

So Jimmy B will not return to Syracuse. Admittedly, I do not know much of what they’d have in terms of players to snatch up. They finished 9th in a poor ACC this season.

From what I remember about Hanner at IU, he was not only raw offensively, but he was also raw defensively. He’d make some athletic plays, but seemed to get lost all the time and was never where he was supposed to be.

I haven’t seen Flory play, but I was hoping he was more like Cliff Omoruyi at Rutgers. He was raw offensively, but a very good defender from day 1.

Specifically on offense. He looks much better defensively.

Still carries a little weight. Although it shouldn’t impact what could become a life altering decision. Hopefully CMW gets a commitment from him down the road.
