IU Scott Posted December 16, 2023 Report Share Posted December 16, 2023 Just looked at the Arizona and Purdue box score and it was 92-84. Arizona had 2 points from the bench and Purdue had 4. You see our game with little bench production so I wonder if this is a problem elsewhere. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think when/if X gets healthy we should mostly play the top 7. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobSaccamanno Posted December 17, 2023 Report Share Posted December 17, 2023 Purdue beat Arizona. MSU crushed number 6 and previously unbeaten Baylor. Wisconsin and Norrhwestern have been ranked. There is still opportunity in conference. Others will tighten up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Play like that at home and bring the same energy we did tonight and we shouldn’t lose any here in the conference. Galloway was absolutely phenomenal. I would’ve loved to have seen what happens if he hits that three to put us up 1 at the end. The roof would have came off the place. Wish we would’ve ran more stuff to get Mgbako shots - I would have brought him in a lot sooner at the end even though he had 4 fouls. Heartbreaking loss for sure but I am optimistic for the rest of the year. Agree on bringing in Mgbako earlier… imagine if Self held out McCullar for any stretch. That might’ve made the difference in the game. Mgbako is looking like a real difference maker out there now, you gotta have some faith and trust in him to not pick up that 5th. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoosier4Life53 Posted December 17, 2023 Report Share Posted December 17, 2023 Cupps played really well, but only scored 2 pts…does a healthy XJ get us the win? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He did, but Harris scored 7 of his 12 in the last 7 minutes, and they were all big... This game will pay dividends down the road in Gabe's development, but the sooner we get XJ back, the better... 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jojo123 Posted December 17, 2023 Report Share Posted December 17, 2023 I just don’t like what I see from this team. We don’t have that guy that you go to when you know you need a bucket. Just to let you know where we are at . Crean recruited better. I think cups will be a very good point guard. Just no pure shooters. Why? We have one of the best shooters to ware an IU uniform on staff. Why no shooters? The Big is not going to be kind to us. No quality wins out of conference. I predict no dancing this season. I sure as heck hope I’m wrong! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coach1K Posted December 17, 2023 Report Share Posted December 17, 2023 1. Don't sit behind the cameras in AH thank god for the video board or I wouldn't have been able to see a thing 2. Galloway played a heck of a game just couldn't get it 3. I do think XJ does help us win we needed guard play today 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

13th&Jackson Posted December 17, 2023 Report Share Posted December 17, 2023 My three keys before the game: Rebound well: we had overall edge and basically even on OR, but missed a couple key opportunities late. Limit TOs: too many TOs Avoid foul trouble: Foul trouble for Mgbako and Reneau really hurt in second half. Played with a lot of energy and effort. Gallo was great. Just not enough winning plays against a good team. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seeking6 Posted December 17, 2023 Report Share Posted December 17, 2023 I'll just say this. We all want us to win and win now. Was lucky enough to be at Assembly for the 2002 Illini game, the Marco dunk Duke game, the Wat shot game, Vic and Michigan missed dunk and a couple others. Assembly was really, really good today. Phenomenal game. Disappointing finish...but after what we saw last weekend we know the team is better this week. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We were on the back side of the ball up about 25 rows and we were yelling in....apparently the concept of spheres doesn't make it's way to the relay booth. Down 2 is different than down 4. Such a shame. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IUFLA Posted December 17, 2023 Report Share Posted December 17, 2023 One other thing... The next time one of our bigs, be it Ware, Sparks, Reneau, or Walker, gets the ball in the backcourt and tries to go the length of the court with it, if I was Mike Woodson at the next practice they'd be running stairs til they puked... Give it up to a guard, for God's sake! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobSaccamanno Posted December 17, 2023 Report Share Posted December 17, 2023 Drinking wine looking somber after a game without the players in a private moment. Hardly looks like they are having a party. What would change if they were playing an Irish Durge and sitting in the dark on a hunger strike? Would that cause them to beat whatever directional school is next? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it’s encouraged I saw Trayce bring the ball up on the secondary break a lot, but never try to outrace everyone to the hoop... And I know him bringing it up was encouraged...and even if so, he's a much better ball handler than any of the above... Every time Race tried it in my memory it was a disaster as well...
