Can we get a shooter please? Somebody? Anybody interested? Have to be willing to shoot a lot and play a lot! If too many shots or too much playing time is not what you’re looking for, there’s a little room for negotiation.

Nobody has complained about anything else Mike Woodson has done. I don’t think it’s ridiculous to question this hire (if it happens) at all.

Brooks and Bates....to close out the roster. Would be a solid roster!

I know this staff has told him that he could be the man here.... IF he’s that good of a shooter!

If you don’t believe you have no shot!

If we’re having to “teach” kids how to shoot, we’re recruiting the wrong guys. Improve? Yes. But teach? Shooters aren’t taught in college.

You may be partially correct, but every kid has to be disciplined enough when they are not being watched to lift correctly. Do you think the whole team and Cliff stand around watching one person lift at a time? A lot of self discipline that goes into lifting. Not only doing it right when nobody is watching, but also not trying to lift too much. On top of that, eating poorly can negatively affect your body as well.

He was in the transfer portal too! 🤷🏻‍♂️

Not sure if it goes here, but I’ve been told that Coach Cliff got offered the opportunity to stay. Hasn’t decided yet.

Clif should be questioned for why our guys can’t shoot? Really? Who was on our roster this year that came to IU a lethal shooter and likely lost their shot because of weight training? Shooters are made in the gym, not the weight room. From my understanding, he’s been offered the opportunity to keep his job by Woodson. Hasn’t decided if he’s staying or not.

I’m not comfortable crowning Stewart as the lethal shooter we needed. Hope I’m wrong, but I’d prefer another guy as well that can really knock it down. Thrilled with Kenyan Hunter staying, Fife being hired, TJD coming back, and Lander returning on top of knowing that Leal, Galloway, and Duncomb are staying. Next order of business I hope. Brunk confirm he’s coming back Franklin returning Race returning Established PG (Johnson ?) Athletic wing (Brooks 🤨) Lethal shooter ?? We have unlimited schollies right? 🤣 Always works out regardless right? In all seriousness, do we have one extra this year, i.e. Brunk wouldn’t count?

Are we swapping him for somebody else or assuming everybody will be back AND adding him? If it’s a swap I agree with you, but he isn’t the lethal shooter we need. If we add him AND a lethal shooter and an athletic wing I’m in.

Talking about a big man vs a guard. And TJD is an all big 10 guy that’s already on our roster. Why bring in somebody else that isn’t a great shooter and turns it over? AD JR? 🤔

Doesn’t shoot it well and turns it over a lot. No thank you.

How do we chip in?

Kenya Hunter likely staying should help with continuity a little bit on the recruiting side.

Bingo. Rather have the whole team back minus AD, and hope we snag a shooter than settle for this. I’ve said this many times, I hope I’m wrong.

Who are the big fish we swung and missed at that some are referring to?

Not directed at you, just a general comment, but with open season transferring going on and a coaching change, what did we expect? Going to find out who really wanted to be a HOOSIER from the get-go when they came here.

Yeah, lost some respect here. It’s all about “me” these days though, so it’s not surprising.

Did I say any criticism is unwarranted? Absolutely not. Matter of fact, I said I was frustrated with the inconsistency and my view could change in the next 2-3 months. Stop moving the goal posts in every rebuttal you have. I said comparing records from last year to this year is misleading. I also said we’ve improved in every statistical category. You rebutted conference record, fine. I also know that SOS has been higher every year of the four, so comparing records in general is short-sighted. If we keep improving by the metrics when it comes to overall D, overall O, and shooting in general, then the rest will take care of itself. Posters like you continuously find the negative in everything and it’s exhausting and old. I mean, your response to my post was to search for that one stat you could complain about. What can you ultimately do about it besides complain? I can answer that for you, nothing.

We HAVE improved in the wins category every year. Your case is that we haven’t improved over the first 9 Big10 games vs last year’s first 9 Big10 games? Really? I’m sure you can cherry pick some other stats as well to try to disprove the fact that we’ve improved in the TOTAL wins category, adj D, adj O, 3 pt %... every year since CAM has been here. As wildly inconsistent and frustrating this year has been I still feel like we’re moving in the right direction. That can certainly change over the next 2-3 months.

If accurate, that would put him in the 4th round, and would become all about the money offered. Is the kid good enough to bet on himself going higher in three years?

There’s no debating I’m correct that it’s misleading to simply compare the two records. The minimal cupcake games this year is proof of that. If you remove all but two cupcake games from last year’s schedule did we have a top 10 SOS like this year? I’m not interested in debating you. Nobody is happy about being wildly inconsistent and 9-7. But we’ve also improved in EVERY possible statistical category over the four year period of CAM’s tenure, so I would likely disagree with your assessment regardless of how frustrated I am.

I’m simply saying you comparing last year’s record to this year’s record is misleading.
