He might put up 20/3 if given starter minutes. Come on man...Durr DID get starters minutes at South Florida, and never averaged even half that...against inferior competition...

Hoosierdave Posted February 14, 2022 Report Share Posted February 14, 2022 We’re projected to win 4 of the last 6 and I think we have a great shot at 5 with Ohio St and their schedule so this game could really help turn things around. There’s no big time bruisers on Wisco so TJD and Race need to assert themselves and get back to the “buddy ball”. That should free up shots and I’m hoping with a home game that guys like Stewart, Kopp, and Bates will show up. I think the key will be X and his decision making. We can’t afford to have Coach rely so heavily on Galloway to run point. We also really need to get back to pushing the ball out in transition because our half court offense isn’t cutting it lately. I think we win a close one. 3 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lots of options, less minutes, different matchups. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He never had XJ, Race, PS and MK talent around him. You never know. He is also a year older, coached better and with a better strength and conditional program. All indications say he could do that 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He shoots a worse overall percentage, a worse 2 point percentage than either Trayce or Race...he does have the FT edge...even with the teammates, coaching, Clif Marshall, and the extra birthday... Even if you invoke the old Illini "per 40" argument, he averages 10 ppg. I'm not seeing anything that indicates he could get even close to 20 ppg...

AxnJxn Posted February 15, 2022 Report Share Posted February 15, 2022 Feeling good about this one. Team's been through some adversity, but this is the same team (well, plus Trey minus Rob) that was putting the wood to Wisconsin in their place in the first half last time, and then let it get away. This is also a pretty good matchup for us. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is also a pretty good matchup for us. I do think physically it's a good matchup, but mentally they have the edge. They're tough. They went into the same hostile environment we just got sent away from with our tails between our legs, and won by making clutch plays down the stretch. I don't think our environment will have much of an effect on them. We have to play like we did against OSU and Purdue...great defense, and someone needs to step up offensively...I'm not sure if Galloway starts or not, but I'm sure he gets the Johnny Davis assignment when he's in there...

NotIThatLives Posted February 15, 2022 Report Share Posted February 15, 2022 Rob P defense would be a nice addition to this game 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobSaccamanno Posted February 15, 2022 Report Share Posted February 15, 2022 I expect the critical difference tonight being whether IU can turn the corner and make key plays down the stretch to pull it out. I also would like to see what the coaches are thinking in terms of adjustments. They saw a tale of two halves last time, and there is a lot that they can look at in terms of game plan and adjustments. Trey mentioned in the press conference that we let them dictate tempo in the second half and we can't let that happen. That's easy to say, but how will the coaches adjust. Also, Davis killed us last time. And our perimeter defense against MSU was hardly stellar. This will have to be dealt with. You can't just let him come out and bury you again. Adjust.

After watching the TV series "Curse of Oak Island" the past 10 years, the Lagina brothers finally get some relics out of the fabled money pit! can't wait to see what they find....
