Indykev Posted August 24, 2017 Author Report Share Posted August 24, 2017 I went with 23. I think we shock a couple teams. Archie is worth a couple more wins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parakeet Jones Posted August 24, 2017 Report Share Posted August 24, 2017 I went with 21, but I could see more. Maybe it's the eternal optimist when it comes to IU basketball in me, but I could see this team overachieving and giving us an enjoyable season. I will be disappointed and a bit nervous if we finish with anything less than 20. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IowaHoosierFan Posted August 24, 2017 Report Share Posted August 24, 2017 i chose 20. A 20 win season with a new coach and losing the talent we did would be a decent year to me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beowulf50 Posted August 24, 2017 Report Share Posted August 24, 2017 I'm predicting 23 wins. Gut feeling that's all. What is understood need not be said:::::! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NCHoosier32 Posted August 24, 2017 Report Share Posted August 24, 2017 very very tough year to do this. i say right around 19-20, but man, so many questions! will Davis be as good as we think? how will RoJo step up this season? will Green and CuJo leap? front court depth? if things pan out all for the best, it could be a solid year with better defense and smarter offense. if these things don't have good answers to them, it could be pretty ugly. just because we expect better coaching doesn't mean talent doesn't matter. excited to see!

IU Scott Posted August 25, 2017 Report Share Posted August 25, 2017 I picked 21 wins because I feel we will be better coached this year despite losing 3 starters Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NCHoosier32 Posted August 25, 2017 Report Share Posted August 25, 2017 looks like so far the range is mostly 20-23. seems reasonable. just so hard to predict. definitely excited to see what CAM can do with them! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seeking6 Posted August 25, 2017 Report Share Posted August 25, 2017 I keep going back and forth on a couple of games but I think 20-21. I know we don't have elite talent (yet) but I still think this roster is pretty solid. I'll echo another poster. 20 win season for first year coach and keep recruiting like we have been....that's all I need for year 1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coach1K Posted August 25, 2017 Report Share Posted August 25, 2017 The stretch of Duke, Michigan, Iowa, and Louisville is brutal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
68Hoosier Posted August 25, 2017 Report Share Posted August 25, 2017 I went with 22. I think we will be very good at home still and will surprise some on the road. Overall this will be a good 1st year if CAM can get us to 22 wins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoosrnight Posted September 3, 2017 Report Share Posted September 3, 2017 I'm saying 23. I think if CAM has the guys buying in early on his philosophy of defense it could be more. We still have talent, I could see anywhere from 19-26 wins. The higher end depends on how last years class has developed this offseason and of course what the new class can do.

jv1972iu Posted September 19, 2017 Report Share Posted September 19, 2017 Hi all...New member, but long-time lurker. First post. 20 wins feels reasonably safe to me. Very excited about this season and our new coaching regime. Hoping to see gradual team improvement as players get comfortable with a new system and coaching approach to game situations. I like that we have a coach who played the game and had a successful coach for a father. I just think coaching is in Archie's blood...his DNA.

jv1972iu Posted September 19, 2017 Report Share Posted September 19, 2017 Hoping that we will see a thread like the one that went on...and on...and on prior to the announcement of our new coach, but this time it will be centered on the amazing turnaround of IU's program in a short period of time.

jefftheref Posted September 19, 2017 Report Share Posted September 19, 2017 More wins and less losses than last year. What is even more exciting is the atmosphere and positive vibes about the new coach and program. For the first time in years I think the ship is being captained by the right person. I truly believe Coach Miller will do some great things and the results will come faster than expected and be consistent over a long period of time.

As for my guess at the record, my brain is saying 18-21 wins ,but my heart says better coaching and ANY improvement in on floor leadership sees 20-25. My record predictions generally fall on the higher end of the optimism scale(among posters I'm familiar with here)..However with a smallish relatively inexperienced front court ,and the returning players' (CH,JM & DD) recent injury history,the risk of re-injury seems fairly high to me. It's one thing to lose experienced front court depth,but totally different to start a season with suspect depth up front,and lose even one guy in the midst of the B1G grind .That alone could lower the win total dramatically if other factors don't fall into place soon enough.. Should any of our bigs go down ,to get to the high end of my prediction, IU will either have to shoot lights out or play shut suffocating team defense..
