If you’re paying a guy $3.5 mil and he can’t motivate, getting him a “motivator” is fantasy land, not an ideal world.
Guys who won’t be here next season
- Thread starter bdhman
- Start date
Nobody is disputing that. If you look how this team is built it’s by design that they get to the free throw line. It’s very important(especially for this team) to hit those at an average clip.
Could they hold up signs like Crean’s assistants?
“HUSTLE, DAMMIT!!!”
Good thought. To the point, contains mild foul language to grab attention, doesn’t mentally burden a guy about to chuck up an end-of-shot-clock desperation ball or preparing to rebound a missed free throw, and conveys the coaches’ fondest wishes quickly.
Intellectually meatier stuff (like “Indiana Hoosiers are 100% Champions of Winning!”), berating individuals for playing like losers, and long, profane diatribes would have to wait for timeouts.
My ideal Motivation Coach would be a kind of cross between Gordon Ramsey and the house mothers from the old syndicated reality series “Starting Over.”
I'll go for dumbest to top TMP! How bout just fire AM tonight and hire RMK. He already lives here and is probably more deranged than ever. Hell, he might even just volunteer for the opportunity to choke one of these under performing ****ers, could it be worse?
Watched a video the other day, of Chris Holtman running into the locker room and jumping around with his players. My goodness, what would that be like?
You do realize Miller has players holding up signs, right? It was very Crean-like.
Assuming anyone is going to be “much better” next year is a pretty risky assumption to make. The reason we are in this predicament is too many players here haven’t progressed much since they were freshmen. I could name names, but the answers are pretty obvious.
We’ve been near the bottom of the B1G in free throw % since Archie arrived. To assume of think that is just magically going to change isn’t realistic.
Free throws have been a problem for IU basketball since Archie took over here. Rather than blame that as an excuse, I’m more concerned as to why it is still a problem.
This is false. Everyone gets an extra year regardless if a transfer. You are confusing this with the extra scholarship rule. A team can use over 13 scholarships if they have a senior coming back. If that senior were to transfer, the team they transfer to cannot over sign.
