If those three aren’t IU caliber then neither is he. I hear ya. Geronimo is still better than those three though (my opinion) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
5fouls Posted November 17, 2023 Report Share Posted November 17, 2023 Minus 24 on 3-pointers and missed 12 FTs. Not sustainable as the schedule toughens up. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The first thought would be Leal being on scholarship however I’d go with whoever has the most PG skill. Last I knew, Rayford was injured. Also, isn't he 2/3 instead of a PG?

5fouls Posted November 17, 2023 Report Share Posted November 17, 2023 If CJ has to play significant minutes, he needs to be counseled to not shoot at the rate he has been. He's not a good shooter, but his athleticism can help out in other aspects of the game. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That isn’t realistic Leal will be the 4th option, but Cupps, Galloway and Gunn will get the majority of time, if XJ can’t go Sunday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's not a good shooter, but his athleticism can help out in other aspects of the game. He only took 3 shots; a break away layup and 2 base line jumpers that were wide open and in rythm. Im not saying he needs to go bonkers and put up 10-15 shots or anything, but i didnt think he forced anything tonight and if he picks and chooses his shots like that going forward with maybe a 3 or two if they are there then he will be fine and get more confident. 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can call me Mr. Obvious if you like What a nice segue Francis, thanks. I’m not going to go into all of the negative comments we already have pleanty of those with more to come I’m sure! What I saw in this game was plenty of progress! MM actually looking like the game was coming to him! Bardo was talking about observing MM in practice and it was evident he was thinking instead of playing! Big progress but a long way to go! CJ and Banks actually seemed to be positives instead of negatives. 2nd team looked better. Scariest part for me was the starting backcourt!? They were getting beat defensively as much as the much maligned 2nd team!?🤮 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kyhoosier29 Posted November 17, 2023 Report Share Posted November 17, 2023 *Poor FT shooting *Poor 3 pt shooting - still don’t have a shooter. Was expecting more athleticism and a more lethal shooter in Mgbako. Little disappointed. Hopefully he’s just finding his footing. *Poor defense all around, especially on the perimeter yet again. I don’t understand why we sag off guards to help in the post when our post guys are bigger… but also without regard for who we are leaving open. It looks like it’s being taught and isn’t going to change I’m afraid. *Outrebounded and gave up 14 offensive boards. *I thought Gunn was much better tonight. Actually played within himself, but with that said, we have zero bench outside of Cupps. And Gabe is going to have to shoot more. Banks, Sparks, Walker, and Gunn need to get better quickly. *With or without XJ I’ll be surprised if UCONN doesn’t beat us by 20+. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We won because we took advantage of a distinct size advantage inside. Wright State was dead last in the country in Defensive FG% coming into the game. And, we can't lose sight of the fact they played without their best player. I'm not feeling the abundance of positives that others are after this game. A couple of players played better, but as a team we did not improve on any of the big issues we've had this year. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gosh, I’m 49 and probably my first memories are watching IU basketball, especially the 81 championship. Went to IU 93-97. Was a huge Knight fan. Unfortunately, we haven’t made a good hire since then, with the possible exception of Woodson. But damn, we haven’t seen good basketball since Cheaney, Grahams, Henderson, Bailey, etc. It’s just sad. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
