dgambill Posted November 8, 2023 Report Share Posted November 8, 2023 Florida Gulf Coast has fouled on almost every possession so it’s made it a very ugly game and hard for us to get any flow going. It’s a very smart plan since we are shooting 50% from free throw line. Combine that with their shooting lots of 3s it will stay close. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluegrassIU Posted November 8, 2023 Report Share Posted November 8, 2023 First game, things to work out. That's all fine. But the rebounding deficit? Inexcusable. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iuthruandthru Posted November 8, 2023 Report Share Posted November 8, 2023 The first team looked rough that first exhibition game. I thought they looked better today. I’d like to think they can come out in half 2 and fix a few things and show they are the best team. Feels like IU should be up by at least 10, if not more.

13th&Jackson Posted November 8, 2023 Report Share Posted November 8, 2023 This was an Archie Miller half. Seven minute and four minute stretch with no baskets. 10/18 from FT line 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UIndy got after us defensively too... Hope we come out in 5he 2nd half and execute... Our backcourt hasn't played well on offense... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fkfootball Posted November 8, 2023 Report Share Posted November 8, 2023 Devonte Green would be a welcome sight on this team. Lol. Woodson needs to get serious about recruiting guards because not having a backcourt of guys that can score is killing us. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If that wasn't a foul on CJ's shot, I don't know what is The ol Patriot game plan. Foul on every possession the refs can’t call them all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NCHoosier32 Posted November 8, 2023 Report Share Posted November 8, 2023 Not sure I totally agree, but my son's halftime comment was "Gonna be a rough year for Indiana basketball. Everyone is selfish and can't score." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Add in 55% free throw shooting and getting out rebounded 26-18 and you can see why it's a close game. ESPN scoring shows rebounds as 20-18? Still not great.

Well Malik had zero and his two fouls were a combined 130’ from the basket. Need him to be more than just a post scorer for this team. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dgambill Posted November 8, 2023 Report Share Posted November 8, 2023 I’d like to see more pick n roll with Xavier and Ware and put Mgbako in the short corner. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maedhros Posted November 8, 2023 Report Share Posted November 8, 2023 Least stressed I've ever been to be only up two at the half in a buy game. Team looks exactly like I'd expect, like they're fitting together a lot of new pieces. Get the win and move on, but even if you don't, this season will be defined by how we play in '24, not '23. Just wanting to see flashes tonight. Seen that from Ware and Cupps, looking for more from Mgbako in the second half. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DWB Posted November 8, 2023 Report Share Posted November 8, 2023 We're getting out rebounded because we have yet to put a body on FGC for a block out. Ware is depending on his height, the rest are just standing around. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
