Kind of the point I was making to our Quincy Blue Devil friend when he said I was poor form.....Ayo playing means so much which is why they'll miss him O plenty next year. Sometimes it's hard to teach other fans how important one player can be. Kind of like Carsen was last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was so weird watching a team handle the press, get the ball to their top free throw shooters each time without throwing crazy, haphazard passes, and then going to the free throw line and hitting all of their freebies to ice the game.

Nobody wants to hear it, but even a diminished Wisconsin program is still light years ahead of us in fundamentals, tenacity and toughness. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I pull for him to do well Glad he's changed his ways and people like him. For me...I just can't cheer for a guy who had what?? a 25% graduation rate at Cincy? Total opposite of what a college basketball coach should be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I actually have a bigger issue with him than I do guys like Sampson, Pearl,etc... I agree and that's why I could not support him until I saw Huggins the man, mentor and genuine care for his players it changed my to an extent. The graduation rate and other issues made it hard to root for him for sure Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why is this stuff so hard to figure out😀 Depends on who you listen to and whether you believe them or not. As far as what I have heard from UD chatter is somewhat conflicting. The Flyers top 6 players consist of 2 Seniors, 3 Juniors, and 1 Soph. The 2 Srs. are Archie's boys. The 3 Jrs. are Archie's recruits(some question that), and Toppin(soph) I have heard both ways. I have heard that he committed for Archie as a HS Junior. I have also heard that upon HS graduation he didn't qualify thus he attended a prep school before going to Dayton. There is what I have gathered...whether true or not, I have no idea other than the 2 Seniors played for Arch. It is kind of moot as Grant is coaching them.

Almost 30 3 point attempts in a blowout loss to Rutgers. Last night with their best shooter back they had 10 only. Hopefully someone on our staff took notice that working the ball inside can and does work vs Penn St when we play them this weekend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've always thought it takes 4 things to have a program that most of us want... Culture, continuity, experience, and talent... The first 3 take some time to develop...

Maybe I am completely wrong and looking at things differently than they were but I for one for not feel our program was in a terrible place when CAM took over. To compare what Archie inherited to what what Crean had are light years apart. I really dont care if we are above 500 if we play hard . Those early Crean teams did that. Sampson had tons of talent and won and the kids worked HARD but I could not get behind that team for their off court issues. Indiana basketball is more than wins and losses and our fans recognize that. I just ask for effort make grades and stay out of trouble. For some reason we cant seem to get the play hard part down Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seeking6 Posted February 19, 2020 Report Share Posted February 19, 2020 Wisconsin loses their top scorer in Kobe King and they win 4 of 5 with wins vs Sparty, Ohio St, and now Purdue. Others stepping up I guess. Interesting concept to think about as we head down the final stretch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We went down to probably 25-30 games during those first 3 seasons and never cheered so hard for our Hoosiers because they constantly left it on the court. Certainly frustrating for hoops fans (IU included) when you know a team is light years ahead talent wise and don't give it 1 Hundy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
