But Coach Knight isn’t one of his ex wives.

Logan Duncombs arms are LONGGGGGG I think he could have a major impact with a year of learning under trayce.

John Bol is Terrible…. He had more blocks than rebounds and maybe like 8-10 points mostly from free throw line… he’s engaged in the game but DOES NOT post up on the low block. His hands are insanely bad. If they pass him the ball he doesn’t catch it cleanly. Cooper Koch didn’t look great… had an ok game and a decent shot. In his defense he would work hard down low and they wouldn’t pass it to him. For being their best player they didn’t run the offense through him. The one time he got the ball down low he backed the player down and had a nice turn around jumper but other than that he shot a couple of 3s. The best player all day was unranked kid from Moline that’s a Jr. he’s such a stud. I mean you had 7th Ranked 19th ranked 24th ranked 47th ranked in certain classes and he outshined them all.

Quincy has a decent program but nothing special

Update watch out for a kid from Moline Illinois. Brock Harding Jr. from Moline Illinois 6 Ft faced Michael Porter Jrs team and beat them by 8 in OT He had 25 points 8 rebounds 5 assists and 5 steals. He’s a Junior and could see him blowing up.

I’m at the Highland Shootout today and he is here amd playing against kenwood Illinois who has 4 division 1 recruits. Cooper Koch is also here and has offers from Illinois, Iowa, Indiana, Ohio St. etc…

So true story.. my dads family is from brown county Indiana and one of Mellencamps sons was in someone in my dads family’s wedding so I always say I went to a wedding with him 😂😂😂😂…. Is there any rules to Mark Cuban giving NIL’s? If so I bet he has some friends that could step in for him to get around those rules. Cuban has a crap ton of money he should be giving to the players if he’s allowed. I guess I should read my own responses before responding argumentatively 🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️ I’ll see myself to the idiot corner now 😂😂😂😂

I didn’t say he should I literally asked if he could 🤦🏻‍♂️

Logan seems so much better than Durr I would love to see more of him too

I think the issue is going to be NIL for these top prospects… Kentucky, Duke, UNC, Texas have people who will pay crap tons to bring top recruits in. I just don’t think Indiana has that which surprises me with how much people love Indiana basketball.

Yep exactly!!

I think that’s a fair point I just don’t think certain decisions/mistakes should happen as a senior in power 5 basketball.

Yes yes yes!!! Spot on. The coaching staff cannot have the mentality of Race where he says and I’ll tell him to take the 10th one. The mentality should be X you’re not making your threes try something else or make the extra pass. If you’re wide open for three then most likely you can dribble a couple dribbles and force the other team to make a decision. We definitely win in Wisconsin and we maybe win at Syracuse if X plays like a senior. He’s playing like a freshman in shot selection. When I coach I talk about high percentage shots. Kopp, Stewart, Leal taking open 3s are high percentage shots. X taking one especially early in the shot clock is not one. More than 2 of 11 shots X takes should be from layups or near the free throw line and for him I’d considered high percentage shots. He’s a senior HE has to be better on decision making period.

So our PG shot 9 3s the rest of our team shot 11???? That CANT HAPPEN…. X 2-9 that means rest of team was 6 for 11 which is 54% that’s pretty good IMO

That number is going to keep going down if Johnson shoots more threes than Kopp and Stewart combined.

Yep and I say to myself why did you bring the ball down go straight back up… Race is so good at quickly getting the ball back up or tipping it in. Surely Durr played 21 tips growing up lol.

I’d like to see him over Durr….. durr is just sooooo bad.

He was also 2-9 from three and 3-11 overall… he was supposed to be the guy who drives and gives our shooters/big men the ball. He did the same thing against Wisconsin and is why we lost. Once he missed 3 in a row impact the game another way.

1000% agree. Woody still has the NBA mass rotation style in his head and that works great if you have 4 and 5 star kids who can help tremendously but in our case we aren’t there yet.

I 1000% agree and you said it perfectly.

I get where you’re coming from but when it gets brought up In the press conference, the comment is after a game, and again his mom has made comments in the past I personally see it otherwise. Yes if it was not directly after the game you’d be completely right and still could be right but sorry for having an opinion on a board and that it annoyed you so much.

Yes and with his mom making comments in the past I don’t think it’s a good post IMO

I honestly don’t care who plays the point guard position I just want them to do their job. IMO RP doesn’t do that on the offensive side. His defense is a completely different story and that’s why he plays over Lander IMO we lost at Wisconsin because of X not RP. The offense stalls when RP is in the game but I did like what I saw when X and RP were in the game together

Yep and he’s not gonna put up with lander complaining on Twitter in his own way without words. He knows what Woodson requires so go out and work on it harder if you want to get on the court. He just thinks he should get more time because he’s a 5 star. RP SUCKS but plays defense so that’s why he’s in the game because he knows what Woodson wants/needs.
