Good for him. He played hard, just didn't fit Woodson's system. 6'7" power forward and Woody wanted a wing.

Woodson system is more suited for wings?

Liked Banks, and thought he had a nose for the ball.

Maybe this is a prime example of what it used to be like 20-30 years ago. Watch & learn your first 2 years to be a good player your Jr & Sr years. I will always root for anybody that put on a IU uniform, even if for just one season. Go IU!!

PS. Maybe we should be more patent with the younger players and let them learn the system.

Don't think it's really an IU decision, I assume he had a spot back and decided it was best for him to go elsewhere. But, I'd agree that maybe we shouldn't pile on guys like Cupps who decided to come back and appears to have done nothing but work his tail off. Those guys can have valuable roles even if it's only on the practice floor and as a locker room influence.

Woodys system.....

I really thought he'd make a big jump in his sophomore year.

Glad he's doing well at Tulane. Always seemed like a great kid.

I don’t remember him even taking a 3 here?

This.

 

[steelyvan]

He did hit that important shot b4 halftime vs p-u.
Glad he is doing well.
Geronimo seems to be struggling at Maryland. Comes off the bench. Had hoped for better for him.

 

[bdhman]

In 3 games this season Banks is 11 for 19 on 3’s. Guess he can shoot….

 

[iubhounds]

I was always a Banks fan. He never seemed to get playing time due to his inconsistent play. That play could have also been due to lack of playing time. But I like his game and his potential. Geronimo I think, found out last year it might have been him and not the coach or offensive style. Season is early but I think this year proves it. When he was signed as a recruit, with Oladipo comparisons, I knew that was the kiss of death for him.

 

[Willdog7]

GO BANKS ,I'm proud of you

Geronimo is stuck in no mans land. Too small to play a big 4, doesn't shoot well enough to play small stretch 4 and can't guard wings or big guards.

Woody can always pay him to come back for his senior season.

It's hard to compare shooting for Tulane vs shooting for IU, double the pressure when you put on the Candy Stripes.

Must be. Shooting looks to be the same story again this year.

Could he be one of those guys who goes out and ends up playing Tight End? I don't know if he played football in high school so just spit ballin.

7-25 at IU
11-19 this year.

 

[Jssanto]

Good for him. He played hard, just didn't fit Woodson's system. 6'7" power forward and Woody wanted a wing.

Or now he has a coach?
Maybe stats would not show transfer players develop more.

Maybe he just improved his shooting. *eyeroll*

You mean his system of not developing, but just rolling the ball out?

there is a thread on stealing from the streaming services on the board, I told him to contact you

Or he chose to develop himself and it's paying off... Good for him

[LifelongIU77]

Woodys system.....

22 and 8

Mbako's averages.

Shhhh

 

[LifelongIU77]

Good coaching

You are about the 20th person on here bitching incessantly about Woodson. You are also the least knowledgeable,and least compelling of all of them.

 

[chaser23]

Good coaching

What’s the nd for ? No dick?

I hope Kaleb does well, but need to see more results, notably against better opponents, before drawing any conclusions.

 

[mrhighlife]

Are we getting to the point where we can tell the reversible jacket fans to go pound sand? ND has a bball team too.

 

[ulrey]

GO BANKS ,I'm proud of you

Go to the Tulane message board!

 

[ribbont]

Good coaching

Or maybe it's because Tulane played NAIA powerhouse Louisiana Christian, kenpom #353 Alcorn St, and #331 ULM.

And when he played Furman, kenpom #145, he sadly was a no show by going 2-4 and 0 3 point attempts and only 3 rebounds.

I want the kid to be great and successful, but to claim his improved play against 3, ummmm, subpar teams is due to coaching is ridiculous.
