Such a broke record...

I, too, haven't watched the game but wanted see the post-game comments.  From the handful of games I have watched, it sounds like the same failings applied to this one.

At this moment I can just say this:  It's inconceivable to me how we fail to get shooters.  Teams routinely beat us with the 3-pt disparity - too often with shooters from the state of Indiana.

Ware was very good.

Mgbako & Gunn made some shots.

Beyond that - lousy 3pt defense & poor FT shooting.

Overall pretty good performance.............at the FT line.  Beyond that, totally unsatisfactory.

Somebody guard Prince Harry!

Oh crap. 

Looks like a cramp....

It feels like every team in the NCAA can find shooters....except us.

This is the worst team on our schedule. 

That's what Army said....🥸

Hopefully we've learned from the "ketchup" recruitment - keep recruiting DQ, but continue to explore other options.

Sounds like the longer it draws out the better our chances?

If we'd been on a player the longest and been considered the likely choice for months and he remained uncommitted as the signing period wore on, I'd be losing optimism.

A couple of times when they had the camera on our bench - man what a physical monster Newton is! I sure hope he gets healthy so he can start knocking dudes around.

Not ready for prime time, but some good glimses.  A work in progress for sure.

That Florida suntan makes Pat Chambers look like Cotton Hill.

It's unreal how few points separates him from 3 to possibly  7 or 8 Championships.

Fork Wooden. Bobby Knight was better than that assclown 

I recall CBK had a saying about 'what could of should have been...'

But, yes, '74-'75 is arguably the best IU team ever (stopped by Scott May's broken arm), the promise of the '81-'82 team before Turner's tragic accident, and Alan Henderson's knee injury late in the season.  That is 2 very possible titles lost and one potentially lost.

I gotta say, if PGE evaluates Davis as both an "excellent shooter" and a "tenacious defender", then I'm all in.

Bravo TJD!

The difference between "committed" and "dedicated":

For your morning breakfast of bacon & eggs, the chicken was dedicated but the pig was committed...

If a recruit is fully committed, and not yet signed, he can tell coaches to stop contacting him.

I never knew we had so many lawyers on HSN!  

Like any "news" story, we don't know all the facts - both for and against MM's behavior.  Once sorted out, the punishment should fit the offense.

Bummer.  Another example of how hints and tealeaves are just BS - and, of course, I fell for it again 😖.

There will be de-commits and portal players.  I just don't like relying on that route annually.

Maybe the worst part is the rapid loss of enthusiasm for McNeely.  He's a big win and the player I wanted most for a long while.

Anyway, back to fland, maybe the RR poster was correct - he's a nice player but not a superstar.  (still wish he chose us, though).

something, something pick IU

Hershey Steelpecker picks IU...

Just for S&G I perused Rupp Rafters yesterday.  In the Boogie thread I saw a post lamenting the arrival of NIL and how Mark Cuban could just a check.  I guess it would make they'd long for the "good ol' days" when they got recruits "The UK way" - by sending stacks of bill$ in a Emory packet....😏

YES YES YES 🥳
