IU didn’t exactly win at a high clip with him. I would have liked to have him and Jalen together vs not and can certainly see areas where he theoretically could have had an effect on opposing players defensively. I understand your point. But I will say a backcourt of X and JHS sounds better than a backcourt of JHS and Gallo. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reminds me of a guy who post on rivals and one of the reasons I don't post there any longer.

It just seemed so obvious that Reneau was the play. We control the defensive boards so much better with TJD and Reneau together. I actually thought today against PSU it was better to go smaller and not play either one.

IU Scott Posted March 12, 2023 Report Share Posted March 12, 2023 (edited) If we get a 4 seed I bet the 5 seed in our region is SD State. They play just like Rutgers and it would be a rock fight. Edited March 12, 2023 by IU Scott Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because of the fatigue factor going into the NCAA. The NCAA id grueling enough at the back of a very grueling B10 tourney. The setup is not advantageous for the NCAA. A season of games should be far more important than the Tourney. Why have it? Money. TV money. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It just looked like it since your first post was about how bad Woodson was on some of those plays.

I don’t know anyone who thinks we go undefeated with him, but this is a really bad take to compare last seasons team to this seasons. Do you think TJD was the same player in your comparison? Do you remember how Jalen performed in the Big Ten games we had X for?   Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The glass half full means you play half way without heart. You do know those other kids are on scholarship too, right? Â Or do you really expect IU to go undefeated every year?

Tamar Bates catches a lot of crap, but if you ask me, he should get the bevy of playing time at the 2 over Trey. On the road/neutral sites, Trey has been an offensive liability... And while Tamar might not be the defender Trey is, the gap has closed enough for Tamar's offense to be the deciding factor. And I don't know what to make of the wall Race has seemed to hit the last two years. The kid tries, but geez, some of the mistakes are just hard to stomach... Woody pretty much had to play his offense to the cast we have on hand. I think when we get away from running the offense through the 5 man, we'll see better results... But, yeah, we do need shooters... On the road Trey has been an offensive liability….I’m too tired to research his stats so I’ll assume you’re right.  But to insinuate Bates has been even ok on the road is laughable.  Before these 2 BTT games, look at Bates stats the last 12-13 games.  I know those because I’ve looked led at them before….it was something like 5-36 outside of the Michigan state game at home.  How’s that not an offensive liability?
