Just a couple small things, but he's doubling off our point guards forcing them to shoot (not rocket science), but also notice he has Galloway's man picking him up immediately after change of possession so he can't get a full head of steam in transition. Slight improvement over Ricky Jr., huh? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, and getting a roster together was impressive. After Little Ricky was let go they had a decimated roster that might have gone winless in the BT. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Euroclydon Posted January 9, 2022 Report Share Posted January 9, 2022 Three point shooting contest not likely to end well for IU. Get to the paint and crash the boards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For now we need to shoot them, especially as we're shooting a good percentage. We need to force them out of sagging to open things up for TJD. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Bates is adjusting to the Big Ten physicality. I expect him to play much better in the second half of Big Ten schedule. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IU878176 Posted January 9, 2022 Report Share Posted January 9, 2022 Thank goodness for Rob. They are essentially letting us play H.O.R.S.E 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FritzIam4IU Posted January 9, 2022 Report Share Posted January 9, 2022 Rob showed some of this his freshman year. I really think his issues shooting the past couple years was a combination of injuries and Archie. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bluegrassIU Posted January 9, 2022 Report Share Posted January 9, 2022 The second unit holding their own played a big part in this late push. People may not like the line changes. But this time, it 100% did as designed, against a team with a short bench. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BobSaccamanno Posted January 9, 2022 Report Share Posted January 9, 2022 (edited) Rob and X hitting 6 threes has been huge, not just for today but future games too. If they struggled, every team would reflexively do it and the pressure would mount. Edited January 9, 2022 by BobSaccamanno 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
