  1. "Please.... back in my day we'd take shots of fireball through our asses!"
  2. 8 Step Plan For IU Success: 1. Pick up phone. 2. Sign Woodson's buyout. 3. Pick up phone again. 4. Get out checkbook 5. Get out a pen 6. Ask Chris Beard what it would take to coach IU (Waiting for a hotter looking girl to call him) 7 Write check 8. Enjoy years of good basketball and success
  3. I can't disagree with that, but imo the real issue was guard play/lack of shooting. It was historically bad and yes Woodson built the roster so it's on him. Also keep in mind we did start 4 So and Fr. for most of the year. There are other issues but to me those were the most glaring that equalled so many loses. As of for everything right now... has there ever been a team that didn't have a single commit? I can't think of one.
  4. Should free up lots of cap space for the free agent market this offseason.
  5. Is there a difference between 2-4 these days? Who you can defend then sure, but offensively there's little difference. I don't think there's a difference between a 2-3.
  6. I agree. What I don't understand is why does it appear like Galloway, Cupps, Leal, etc. don't even look at the basket most of the time when catching the ball with a defender several feet off?
  7. Unfortunately, with the current roster there isn't any other way to view it from his standpoint. Why is the roster built this way is the question.
  8. I think Edey is an outstanding college player. I think he takes Purdue to a final 4 or better this year. However, I watch a lot of NBA basketball. He has no chance in the NBA. Too many high pick and rolls and way too much up and down the floor. It's an entire different world.
  9. That's fair if you're basing it on his HS/AAU rankings. I see an 18 year old who that isn't very athletic, but has size and skills to be a really good player at IU in a year or two. He's played in 4 college games. Give him a chance.
  10. Oh I'm so worried about college kids that I've never met playing a game. How will my life ever go on!?!?!
  11. Indiana is a really young team. At any given time they have 3 and sometimes 4 players on the floor that are under the age of 20. The lack of anyone having any confidence shooting the ball is an obvious concern and has been for the last 6-7 seasons outside of Kopp. However, there is obvious talent. I don't see any of them leaving early at this point. Personally, I think Ware will be around for a while. Let it grow into something.
  12. I do bet. +7.5 seems too good to be true. In my experiences if the line seems too good it usually means Vegas knows something we don't.
  13. I'm hoping to keep it under 20.
  14. Gives me a little more hope. Thought IU would be a bigger dog.
  15. One three that he gave up in the last 10 min. He started a very casual trot back in transition and then realized his man was sprinting to the three point line and by then it's too late with real shooters. He's going to learn this isn't HS or AAU ball... I hope.
  16. I'll add... IU is currently 301 in D1 basketball 3's made.
  17. Me too. I was taking 9.5. That line just moved big time.
  18. Pacers were going to offer $112 mil for 4 years. He's made around 1/5 of that since. This explains it a bit. I sure hope he fired his agent. https://www.sportskeeda.com/basketball/news-after-declining-whopping-112-million-offer-former-all-star-victor-oladipo-humbly-joined-okc-9-million-deal
  19. "Choices? Voices?" Think about what Oladipo walked away from with what the Pacers offered him with an extension? He lost tens of millions.
  20. I don't think Ware and MR can be on the floor at the same time. Everything is clogged and IU isn't a 3 point shooting team (year after year). Seems to be a liability on defense too. Problem is that they are two of your best players. I would love to see MM play the 4 spot and increase the tempo on offense and defense. Sparks looked okay but again he's strictly a back to the basket guy. Be interesting to see what changes Woody does for the next game. The first two games clearly isn't a successful blueprint. Also, Florida Gulf Coast squeaked by Ave Maria Friday night. YIKES!
  21. IMO... MR isn't nearly athletic enough to play in the NBA. I don't think it's really that close either. I hope he has a great year and career at IU.
