IUFLA Posted December 18, 2022 Report Share Posted December 18, 2022 Well, now that all the kvetching is done over the Kansas loss When: Tuesday, December 20th 7:00 pm EST Where: Simon Skjodt Assembly Hall, Bloomington, Indiana TV: BTN Elon is 2-9 with wins over Erskine and Johnson and Wales (sounds like a shoe company)... They've been so bad, they need Musk to cover up the stench Haven't seen them play, but they don't look very good...Halloran looks like he can shoot the 3 a little, They don't rank in the top 100 in any statistical category except 3 pointers attempted (95th)... We shouldn't have any trouble here. Rest up our starters some, give the kids a chance to play and gain confidence... 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rest up our starters some, give the kids a chance to play and gain confidence... I think our starters got plenty of rest in the KU game while they were on the floor. But I agree, let's put in the "other guys" and let them get some experience and chemistry of their own.

NCHoosier32 Posted December 18, 2022 Report Share Posted December 18, 2022 my son's team is not good and they beat Elon. when i told him IU plays Elon he said we'd win by 100. he truly felt his high school team could have beaten Elon. Johnson and Wales is a culinary college in NC. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coach Robby Posted December 18, 2022 Report Share Posted December 18, 2022 I bought my instructional aide in my class tickets for him and his daughter for Elon. It’s his secret Santa gift. Hoping we show up! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Inequality Posted December 18, 2022 Report Share Posted December 18, 2022 I would say play the second string but they might steal the jobs from our starters. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Im hoping for the best but expecting the worst (broken and out for the year) for XJ but regardless of how long he's out I would try to get CJ quite a bit of floor time and work him into the rotation more. We will need his energy off the bench even more now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The fact Woodson said day to day makes me think sprain. If it was broke we'd probably know by now. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Euroclydon Posted December 20, 2022 Report Share Posted December 20, 2022 The next two games serve one purpose - to demonstrate this team can run their offense to get open shots. They can easily win these next two games based on the talent difference alone. CMW should make it about playing good basketball, players being in the right positions, running an offense to get open looks, and overall execution. If all they do is out run and out jump the next two teams they will have missed the opportunities given to them to refocus before conference play. If they win by 30 but in ugly fashion where they are careless with the ball and waste possessions, we will know nothing has changed. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not a doctor either, but I believe sometimes it’s difficult to see hairline fractures until swelling goes down. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It just looked odd. Hoping for a speedy recovery. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
