Hes back

I'd give Damon at least five stars for his actual IU performance but he wasn't the guy in my example.

Damon was one of the fastest players on the floor grabbing a defensive rebound and outrunning everybody to the other end to make or threaten a layup (i.e. in straight line speed). It's sad so many current fans don't realize how fast he was, plus he did a ton of other things really well too.
He slowed some because of his old man knees. He was a great athlete before that. Probably watched 75% of his games in high school. He literally did everything.

This is not directed to you, but overall to the post.. It's certainly great news for Indiana, but they still need a shooter, or 2, to be a great team. Maybe that get's done by committee? Can CJ Gunn surprise people? What are your expectations for Tamar Bates?

Gunn's my sleeper shooter. With a name like that surely its destiny.
 
Race might very well make a big jump next season as he becomes a much more consistent shooter. And he plays with the kind of toughness you need inside. We know he can defend and board. JG will need to make a big jump to beat him out. Not impossible, but not likely.
I just hate two post players in todays game. The 4 needs to stretch the floorn
 
Yeah. Mike Woodson needs to prove he can coach still… Do you even listen or believe the stupid shit you spew?
Yes, he does need to prove he can coach at this level. His mediocre record as an NBA coach doesn’t prove he’s a good college coach.

This season will prove or disprove that.

That’s false too. Don’t get me wrong though. It’s a luxury that woody wants but Kansas didn’t have a consistent 4 shooting 3s. The end of the year race was much better at it.

30 plus to actually be a threat to a defense. I’m not running a guy off the 3 point line that hits 13 3’s in 35 Games. Mason Gillis hit 36 for Purdue at the 4
You seriously comparing Gillis to race? Look I get everyone wants a stretch 4 but Gillis isn’t close. Race can at least handle the ball and was getting his legs under him from the perimeter. I’m betting IU won’t average more than 7-8 made threes and they won’t need to. Especially if they hit thier free throws and 2s.

u speak sense its late listing to these dumbasses who cares what they think i like u know basketball if woodsnon gets this team to accept there roles with luck which always plays a part nationalchampinship
 
Let’s hope the incoming freshmen and reserves play well enough to keep fresh legs on the floor the last 8 minutes of the second halves, next season. Coming back from deficits, and hanging onto leads, made those must have buckets and stops harder to come by when they mattered the most. It was the lost opportunities that were the most gut wrenching last year … fresh legs should provide better game control.
 
if it was up to me, I would let Brad Davison come back for a 9th year, would love to kick his ass one time
That is the Wisconsin guy who is super dirty, right? Engaged to our Tyra Buss?
I saw a clip on him (from here I think) that was so bad I am disappointed in the coach and school for not cutting him.
 
Same. He’s going to start at the 3 until someone else plays better. Sure he’s not dynamic but he does what he’s supposed to do. He’s never out of position. Everyone else is.
I cannot do Xand O s well enough to know that, but I want Geronimo to improve to the point he has to be on the floor. And that likely is the 3 spot.

Gillis I used an example when he asked how many Race should make. I would prefer we play either THD or Race not both at same time. Gillis is a much better shooter and an actual threat from 3. Race isn’t

It’s going to be ugly if people expect JG to make this crazy overnight Jump.
 
You do understand at 26% you and many others would be screaming at him.
If a guy hits 2-5 is he considered a threat? % isn’t the weakness. It’s about making shots. Race scares nobody from the Outside. Sit back and sag and double TJD. We need spacing to penetrate since we lack shooting
