The crowd is small at the ND game. That ace use to be a hard place to play because they use to have great crowds.

Crowds have been smaller in general it seemes like from what I’ve seen on most broadcasts 

Has anyone seen a Miami game ? How does nijel pack look ?

Tuned in to the Western Ky/UIndy game to check out Lander. Saw him hit a three, commit a turnover, foul and tech foul and airball a 3.  Hard to believe anyone could even mention him as a one and done. I know they have a veteran team and it will take time for him to gel with his team mates, but, man, I'm glad he transferred.

Same here never loved him or his motor in high school …thought he was very talented but not a difference maker …sometimes star ratings aren’t always perfect

I did some looking.   Louisville's talent is mostly frosh and sophomores.  I counted 4 four star guys and one 5 star.  Maybe they will gel.  Outside of Duke and Carolina,  how tough is the acc?  Have some hodge podge transfers.  A guy that was #8 juco.  

Maybe some are hurt ? I didn’t study their roster but none of their kids stood out as above average athletically they had one guy who could get where he wanted but I didn’t think he was a freshman ….I hope for their sake they all were lol

Syracuse down 18 to Colgate.  Wake Forest down 1 to Utah Valley.  Archie 4 minutes away from RI win #1. Up 4 with 4 to go.

See ! Archie told you he’d turn it around

Tshiebwe just elbowed two players in the neck chin and only ended up with one foul. No flagrant but he’s on the bench acting like a baby. No respect for him or the coach 

Shocker being at Kentucky under cal

Haven't watched a whole lot but they don't appear to have great talent.

I didn’t see anything impressive in the bellarmine game

Hadn't noticed and have switched over to watch those green bastards playing those blue bastards. 

Same here wishing iu was there we are a better fit than the green ones

Do they have any young talent?

Didn’t look like much

Wasn’t it because of the crossroads classic?

That would make since…and now ITS gone

UL game winning shot was a tenth of a second to late so they are now 0-3

Wow …they’re schedule isn’t gonna get easier either 

maybe coach Shannon is retiring from new Albany to go to Louisville 🤷🏼‍♂️

Also I know this is a NOT iu thread …but I think it’s relevant …why are WE not in the champions classic ? I get Kansas Duke and Kentucky but don’t we fit better than Michigan State

I'd wondered where Audige was... 

barnhizer looked great the two times I saw him play and he looked physically capable of big ten play at indiana all star game I was bummed he couldn’t play that weekend team indiana was stacked and he would have made them even better

Granted it’s only 2 games, but Luke Brown is averaging 23.5/gm on 57% from the field, and 58% (11-19) from three. 
 

Disclaimer: I played for Blackford in the early 70s, so I’m a little biased.

Shhhh…only on Stetson nights ( he also lead the team in rebounds and assists against a team they hadn’t beaten since 1989 )

Is it just me, or is Northwestern and Gerogetown, total trash? It's like watching an 8th grade game.

 

Is barnhizer playing ?

Luke Brown has been in college 6 years already?

I don’t think can even keep up that long

Keion Brooks missed his 2nd straight game and Washington struggled to beat Utah Tech 78-67.  #15 TCU lost to Northwestern State.  Felt old when I saw Chuck O'Bannon Jr plays for TCU and that he's in his 6th year of college ball.

That makes two of us

Butler AND Penn State suck.

Yeah thad is not making an immediate impact for sure …will need a year or two of recruits to evaluate

7 minutes ago, FKIM01 said:

A couple of things I read here and there...was not getting it done on the recruiting trail and wasn't a good fit with the players or the rest of the staff...got a little pushy with his politics and apparently most in the program disagreed with him. 

Oof.

Yikes …I had not read anything to that effect just some piece pushing how he left graciously without giving much or a reason and then heard conspiracy theories woodson wanted him gone becuase he didn’t wanna look over his shoulder ( which didn’t really seem plausible )

Again.. this is an IU forum. He was not good enough for high D-1 competition. Don’t know why you feel the need to keep pushing him on here. 
If they don’t play for IU, where’s the relevance?

no brown hate ….riiiiiight ….you DO know what thread you’re in right ?  …not sure if he will average 20 a game forever but I do think he will keep getting better maybe you’ll come around at some point , If not, try and  keep the blood pressure low so you don’t miss the good iu season  on the horizon with a stroke or heart attack

And they were down big in those games too not like the little guys came back and got lucky at the end 

Butler down 7 to Penn state Jayden Taylor having a rough night 1-7 pierce Thomas with 4 rebounds and dj Hughes getting minutes as well

FSU trailing Troy in 2nd half. At risk of starting 0-3 after losing to Stetson and UCF

And they were down big in those games too not like the little guys came back and got lucky at the end

No Brown hate… just don’t see how he gains traction on an IU board. Don’t see any relevance 

Oh cmon now …no hate ? You were skeptical and vocal of his play through most of his high school career and now coming off back to back 20 point games ( leading his team in scoring in both wins ) to start the season  you are making negative comments about him being mentioned in the college hoops thread when almost every indiana kid playing d1 gets their updates tossed in on game days ….ya know ya MIGHT actually enjoy  rooting for him if you’re willing to be open to the possibility ya might have underestimated him …could be fun if ya try 🤷‍♂️
