Play the walk-ons…If that’s the case then so be it. But the longer you keep a bad team in…the more they start believing. I hope he realizes that he cannot play this second unit. There’s literally zero scoring among them. Edited November 13, 2023 by Hoosier987 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maedhros Posted November 13, 2023 Report Share Posted November 13, 2023 I'm not one for overreacting, but genuinely, we barely look like a functioning basketball team at the moment. There's not really anything we've done well. That second unit lineup was never going to work, but the starters have done distressingly little as well. This shouldn't be happening. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IU Scott Posted November 13, 2023 Report Share Posted November 13, 2023 What the heck was Woodson thinking when he played the second unit so long. Every year we say how much depth we have but most of the second unit is not good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BobSaccamanno Posted November 13, 2023 Report Share Posted November 13, 2023 Sparks just coming off an injury will get his conditioning going. Banks showing a motor today. Big shot he hit and he’s playing hard. Walker basketball IQ for today gets a minus. Hope it’s not a trend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaroonRebel Posted November 13, 2023 Report Share Posted November 13, 2023 Do we not have a 5 man combination that can run an offense? None of the combos look good yet. I still think a three guard line-up is way to go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BGleas Posted November 13, 2023 Report Share Posted November 13, 2023 Bad shot by Mgbako, but I really feel like the coaching is not putting him in a position to be successful or gain confidence. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve felt like there isn’t enough offense being ran through him especially in the beginning of the game to get him “hot”. He does seem to have the Miller Kopp role of just standing in the corner. Reminds me of Romeo in the Archie Miller offense. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
02Hoosier Posted November 13, 2023 Report Share Posted November 13, 2023 Hopefully this poor play is just a result of not knowing the system and plays well enough. Guys not in the right place on both sides of the ball. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we win in single digits we still take a dive in metrics (because Army is so bad). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IU Scott Posted November 13, 2023 Report Share Posted November 13, 2023 I guess this is what teams look like in college basketball today. It happens when you keep trying to build your roster every year with transfers and one and done players. Might not be this bad but I have seen some very uninspired basketball from some teams.

BobSaccamanno Posted November 13, 2023 Report Share Posted November 13, 2023 Our guys seem to think that because they have high ratings we can just intimidate and push them around. You’re literally playing ARMY. You’re like a puppy dog to them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have Todd Leary calling him the best shooter we have had in a long time, but we just park him in the corner. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
