Honestly, I wouldn’t be surprised if there were a player or players practicing right now there at Assembly Hall or over at Cook Hall.

Joe_Hoopsier Posted March 1, 2023 Report Share Posted March 1, 2023 I’ve waited to even come on. I’m not sure what better things the team (in whole) wanted to be doing tonight, but it better have been dang good. Fran just came in your house, pissed on your pillows, kicked your dog, and made love to your wife, while you made him an omelette. Then washed his car for him. embarrassing doesn’t even scratch the surface. I feel sorry for Hummel even have to try and find something to say during that lethargic mess. GD! 3 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoosier4Life53 Posted March 1, 2023 Report Share Posted March 1, 2023 Getting embarrassed like that can end up being a positive in some cases, but I’m not sure with this team. Just can’t figure them out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KoB2011 Posted March 1, 2023 Report Share Posted March 1, 2023 Pretty damn bad effort. Every single player, sans Trayce, should be embarrassed. Hope Jalen realizes you have to bring the Purdue level of effort every game because he got embarrassed by an inferior player. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kyhoosier29 Posted March 1, 2023 Report Share Posted March 1, 2023 Embarrassing? And I’m not embarrassed about the offense. Sometimes you can’t make shots. I’m embarrassed about the D. How can it be that bad this late in the season? How can Jalen get beat three times IN A ROW? How can Iowa get open three after open three without an adjustment? How can our basketball IQ on that end of the floor still be so bad? First in-person game I’ve watched this year and curb stomped. 😡 I’ve said it a thousand times but we just aren’t good enough to win multiple games in a row bc some team will “volume” us with threes and we’re screwed. We HAVE to have a more balanced offense moving forward. Have to make threes in today’s game to win 95% of the time. Guess a 3 is still possible if we beat UM and win the BTT, but I’d say we’re more likely to lose in the quarters of the BTT and end up a 6. Don’t think the seeding really matters at this point, whether we’re a 3,4,5, or 6. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MSHoosier Posted March 1, 2023 Report Share Posted March 1, 2023 someone mentioned it, but look at our really bad loses, Arizona, Kansas, Iowa (can't include Penn St. in this analysis, that was just bad). All of those teams run a motion offense that we could not contain. Don't know what that says about Coach Woodson's defensive scheme. Seems like he is going to have to try something different next year. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Artesian_86 Posted March 1, 2023 Report Share Posted March 1, 2023 I find a little comfort in this comparison with the 1987 National Championship team. Yes, they were 30-4, but they lost the last 2 out of three game of the big ten season. They beat Ohio St. at home for the last game of the BIGTEN season. There was no BIGTEN tournament back then. Here’s to hoping we can play like that ‘87 team late in the season! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

madmax Posted March 1, 2023 Report Share Posted March 1, 2023 (edited) Watched sectional basketball tonight. Had a sinking feeling that we were going to lose all night.

Hoosier4Life53 Posted March 1, 2023 Report Share Posted March 1, 2023 I understand with an All American like TJD you need to run the offense through him, but only taking 11 three pointers (and 3 of those were in the last 2 min) on the night doesn’t get it done in today’s game. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IU Scott Posted March 1, 2023 Report Share Posted March 1, 2023 Just seem like we were a couple steps behind all night and had several lose balls just bounce off of our hands right to an Iowa player.

I still remember to this day how pissed Coach Knight was for those two losses late in the season. Something clicked after those losses.

EvilleHoosier Posted March 1, 2023 Report Share Posted March 1, 2023 No excuse to lose at home to Iowa. The team is a lock for the tournament, but are still playing for favorable seeding. Just getting there isn't enough. Need to be in a position to win a couple games and being in the 5/12 matchup is not the way to do that. This was like the Penn State game, but worse since this was at home. They cannot allow another performance like this on senior day. Can't let TJD go out like that in his last home game. Plenty of time between now and Sunday to get everyone back on the same page and rested up physically and mentally. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless 8 of 9 isn't multiple games. You’re right…. really speaking more to not being able to win 6 in the tournament against quality competition. But you are correct in that we went on a nice little streak. With that said. That included a really poor game at Minny and a non competitive game at MD. Not sure Minny should count, but to their defense, good teams find a way to win when they play poorly. We just can’t seem to find some consistency. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
