If it's this late in the season and the coaches don't understand that, it's a very good sign for the BTT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steubenhoosier Posted March 12, 2019 Report Share Posted March 12, 2019 While I agree that Juwan was the leader and the heart and soul of our team, I can see how this happened. In the second half of the B1G season, crunch time if you will, Juwan had the following games-- MSU--5 points the first game, 7 the second OSU--3 points Purdue-- 9 points Wisconsin-- 9 points I realize he had larger impacts than just scoring, but I bet these games, especially the games against the two teams that tied for the conference title, impacted voters.

The Daily Hoosier Posted March 12, 2019 Report Share Posted March 12, 2019 Should team results dictate who wins individual honors? I don't think so, and put forth my best arguments why Langford and Morgan got snubbed. https://www.thedailyhoosier.com/morgan-and-langford-receive-all-big-ten-honors-but-both-are-snubbed/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Right there with you. As good as Juwan and Romeo were for the team this season, there were games where, quite honestly, they disappointed. If not for others, certainly for me. With over half a century of watching IU All-Americans and Big Ten Players of the year, I feel it is safe to say, that neither Juwan or Romeo came close to those IU players that earned those honors in years past. Not a knock on either player. Just that neither rose to the level of others that proceeded them. Now.... gonna say again. If Romeo feels satisfied with what he accomplished in Candy Stripes this season then it is time for him to move on. However, if he is the kind of competitor many said he was coming into the season, then IMHO, he should stay. at least one more season, and right the wrong, many feel has just been thrust his way.
