He saw the his minutes being reduced with IU's bench. Franklin's experience could have helped IU. I just feel he would have gotten lost in the rotation.

Euroclydon Posted November 10, 2021 Report Share Posted November 10, 2021 Is the Champions Classic in need of an overhaul? Michigan State hasn't won a championship since 2000 and only has four wins in this event. Kansas and uk have only won one title since 2000. Duke has had more success winning three titles since 2000. Seems like UNC with 3 or Nova, Uconn, and Florida with 2 each would have as much claim to play in this as uk, MSU and KU. Maybe setting it up for last seasons champs to always be a part of it would make it better or using teams that have won it in the past ten seasons or so would help. My guess is they count on the fans for these four traveling. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They risk stuff like this because they don't blow teams out because they play such a slow pace offensively and then give up 3's. Navy went 11-21. It's just not a sustainable way to win long term..I know I know they won a championship but long term success and avoid early outs etc....you just give yourself such a small margin for error.

Well it's those premier programs honestly....they bring fans/views etc. You could easily schedule a replay of the final 4 to kick off the season if that is what you wanted to put on. I don't mind this format....I just think Indiana should be working to get themselves involved in such an event too and get rid of the crossroads. Been begging for IU/OSU/UL/UK at the minimum as a replacement. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lurker Posted November 10, 2021 Report Share Posted November 10, 2021 Noticed Damezi Anderson didn't play in a 103-45 beat down of Coppin State. Loyola played 12 guys so if he isn't hurt then that's pretty sad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I watched an interview with their new coach and he raved about returning their top 6 guys, 2 new guys from the portal and their 4 freshmen. 30ish minutes and never mentioned DA.

Maybe his main issue was talent evaluation rather than the other coaching aspects. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
