So I just stood up in the stands and watched for a few minutes. A student manager came up and asked what I was doing. I said I had purchased a concert ticket and just wanted to know where my seat would be (true). I was told I had to leave. No brief chat with CBK. 😀 Yep, that doesn't surprise me. I wouldn't want my practices open to the public either. I was in Assembly Hall several times during the Coach Knight years and it was always like that. The doors were always closed with CLOSED PRACTICE on the outside. I always tried to see through the cracks on of the doors. That never lasted long either, because there was always security around all doors and ramps during practice. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kidding aside the Bluebaugh family were always nice. https://pistolsfiringblog.com/the-time-doug-blubaugh-pinned-bobby-knight-to-the-wall-at-indiana/ 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I walked up the ramp as he was coming down and he stopped on his own and chatted with me for a few seconds. My first visit to Cook Hall happened to be a day when Tom Crean and the staff were putting media members through a mock practice and training session. We were just in the publicly open part of the facility when Joanie Crean walked by and invited us up to the 2nd story viewing area of Cook Hall so we could watch. She playfully gave Pat Forde a hard time about how he was doing. She was incredibly nice and invited us to take a full look around Cook Hall and then over to the football stadium where we found our way into the football training facilities. I've always remembered her kindness on that day, and it made me really disappointed when things just didn't work out for Tom at IU. 13 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IUFLA Posted May 27, 2023 Report Share Posted May 27, 2023 247 lists IU as a potential suitor for Richmond grad transfer Tyler Burton if he pulls out of the NBA Draft "The 6-foot-7, 215-pound senior has more than 1,600 points on his resume. Burton ranked third in the A-10 in scoring last season, averaging a whopping 19.0 points per game to go along with 7.4 rebounds and 1.5 steals. Burton drained 55 3-pointers in 33 games." "Indiana: The Hoosiers do not have a veteran shot-maker on the wing. Burton would fix a ton of its (valid) shooting questions in a hurry." What they don't say is, he was a 30% shooter from 3...

Indykev Posted May 27, 2023 Report Share Posted May 27, 2023 IU is one of 1000 teams to reach out to Tennessee small forward Julian Phillips should he exit the NBA draft. 247 article states he is leaning to stay in the draft after an impressive combine. Here is another kid, ave 8 points a game, wasn't even close to being the best player on his team but thinks he is ready to play in the NBA.

I am so sick of hearing this myth about IU having nobody that can shoot. Trey Galloway (46%) and Xavier Johnson (37%) say hello. If a new player comes in shooting (possible) or a current roster player takes a leap like Galloway did last season (entirely possible), IU will have plenty of shooting. I'm very much evolving to a "my team is on the floor" stance. It won't bother me at all if IU stays right where they are. I think they'll be better than most are giving them credit for. 6 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just think we need a guy that hits them at a similar clip that we currently have, but with higher volume. The guy looking to pull from three, and be a threat, anytime he’s CLOSE to open. And athletic enough to get a shot by himself. We didn’t have that last year. Lack of attempts/volume from 3 hurt us last year IMO. MK could shoot, but didn’t attempt many bc he couldn’t get open. Trey isn’t the guy looking to score from the perimeter, even though he can make them. X isn’t either. He’s trying to get to the bucket, as he should. Mgbako may help here. I don’t know. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The key is to be able to shoot with a high percentage on a decently high volume. Those two combined for 4.5 attempts per game. It’s great they had a good percentage but they aren’t going to fix IU’s shooting issues on their own. 6 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, Smith and Loyer shot 34% over their last 10 games as starting freshmen guards on a 1 seed. We saw how that turned out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah - we shot 15 threes per game last year and that probably is too low for a team without TJD. We need to replace 424 of our 544 three point attempts if my mental math is correct. Theres obviously a lot that goes into that, but the point that having one more guy that can reliably make 2/5 every game is a valid point. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
