Joe_Hoopsier Posted February 29 Report Share Posted February 29 9 hours ago, DWB said: I was flipping back and forth between the Men's and women's games. There was one very striking difference: The women's team moves the ball with pace, both up the floor, ,and particularly in each and every pass they make. The men's team (mainly X) walks the ball up the court, and every pass is non-chalant. I bet it never gets above 2 mph. We had at least 2-3 steals against us because of lazy passes. It's so fundamental. I learned how to pass in the 6th grade.... And we may have some talented players, but they're not mentally tough. Not even close. Cupps, Gallo, and Walker are mentally tough in my book. But no one else comes to mind. Maybe Leal. I've been saying for a while, it's like the intent is there but the execution on EVERYTHING is 1-2 seconds slow. There simply isn't that much tolerance, even against terrible teams at this level that actually give a sh#$ about winning. Last night, they moved most of those minus 1-2 second decisions to the 1-2 seconds in advance side of the graph or at least to even. I'll add, coach doesn't make those cuts, passes or shot attempts. But then again, he hasn't sent a player to the bus in mid game for being lazy either. traffic goes both ways. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was smart to use the fouls we had, Malik just has to not be stupid and realize he has four fouls. Transparency I am a huge lover of MR... Now, in that instance, we all from our couches have the benefit of clarity and probably decades of instant (with no repercussions) basketball decision making under our belts. Any player ( in this instance it's MR) feels like they need to make a decision in 1 second or less, during actual live fire. No second guessing, no effing around, you here foul foul foul and YOU (MR) are the one guarding the ball, soooo ya gotta think the bench is screaming at you. MR shouldn't have fouled, buuuuuut. If the wise staff was yelling switch, or help or GALLOW GALLLOW... Just sayin. Also yes, Ye does protest too me, me thinks. ... and I want to cry with him everytime.

KDB Posted March 7 Report Share Posted March 7 I realize this is incredibly unlikely. But here is what Team Rankings gives our updated chances of making the tournament after Minny. What's interesting is they think 20 wins gives us a 72% chance. If you beat MSU and win 2 in the B1G tourney that's 20.. I personally think we probably have to at least make it to the B1G final to have a real chance without an auto-bid, which we'd be at 21 if we lost there.. Let's get some March magic. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NCHoosier32 Posted March 8 Report Share Posted March 8 trying the optimistic thing after being completely beaten down last night - if we could finish as the 6th seed in the BTT, we could realistically win the first 2 rounds. obviously that assumes we win Sunday. while i don't find those 3 things extremely likely, any chance at all that would get us in the tourney? what if we won 3 rounds? i know. i know. what if pigs could fly? i am super curious to see if all of this negative buzz with Liam has any impact on our effort Sunday. they are just young men who obviously hear things that are going on. do they care? will it tick them off? will it bum them out?

KDB Posted March 11 Report Share Posted March 11 9 hours ago, KDB said: Team Rankings updated after IU’s win against Michigan State. Well, maybe it wasn’t updated. Bumped up to a 31.9% of getting in this morning. - 37.7% with one win in BTT. - 65% with 2 wins in BTT. - 89.9% with 3 wins in BTT. I think these percentages are more optimistic than reality, but it’s still fun to look at and have some hope. One game at a time! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In contrast to this, with a run to the BTT final, Torvik's sim has us as the 8th team out of the tournament. Safe to say we probably need to win the BTT to get in, but I feel like we'd have to at least be considered if we get to the BTT final. I think the NET is overvalued. MSU should not be in if we're not even in the discussion. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MSU should not be in if we're not even in the discussion. I think a 21-14 Indiana team that is 13-11 against B1G teams and would have won 7 of 8, would need a long look before being left out. Not really sure I'd care about the metrics at that point. Edited March 11 by btownqb 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The CFP left FSU out of the football playoffs because of key injury! Does the Tournament committee take into account season long injuries with respect to teams suddenly playing up to expectations with the return of a key player?

I do believe the committee factors injuries into their selection. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
