Exactly.
We played at our ceiling, at home, up as much as 13, and still lost.

Reneau was in the bad game group?
Second leading reason behind Gallo why IU was in the game
I kept thinking someone on coaching staff would have gotten McCullar finally fouled out, I thought wrong
Congrats you are in the 1% that thinks Cupps would have been the better option over X against KU.
If X played the same game Cupps did against KU you would have asked him to never play basketball for IU, again.
Good take!! Lol
I can't say for certain but with X, I think IU would have had the depth and maturity to win the game against Kansas. Beating Kansas might be the difference in making the Dance or missing it.
WRONG
I know X is i going to have future games making "silly" mistakes because his ego is inflated, is told hes the leader, and thus is given the green light.
Cupps may make mistakes, but they wont be unnecessarily "silly" mistakes. Theyll be much less and fewer in between because Cupps plays a fundamental style where as X playss more improvised versatile style.
X is NOT good with that style, thats a fact thats been shown for 6 years.
(Think Devonte Green)
You cant say that because all the mistakes X more than likely would have made before* that point in the game wouldnt have allowed the game to be within reach.
How many times has Cupps fouled a guy while shooting this year? More than X over his career at IU, for sure. How many times has Cupps got torched by an upperclassman?
Just on the defensive side, X would save 10 points a game.
Your opinion is the minority, like i mentioned, maybe 1%. Good luck with that.
You keep saying that like its some sweat off my balls, im not a follower & dont give 2 shits if my op is of "minority".
That said, theres a huge IU population I read messages from all the time online that think X is dawgshit after 6 years. This isnt the only spot online to comment on IU ball ya know. But again, agree or disagree, doesnt shape my opinion
Oh there are morons all over the internet for sure. I just like to base my arguments about basketball on stats, you know something that X does better exponentially than every aspect of Cupps game as a freshmen.
Im glad you aren't a follower, you and Kyrie should hang out, might connect on a few opinions.
Spot on. X as the starter and Cupps off the bench for both X and Gallow makes a world of difference there.
How about soph TJD, Ware needs to built up his body. Ware could get there plus the length that he has if he keeps working. Ware could be something special.
While I agree, I would add “in the NBA” to the end of each sentence you made about Ware. He has already showed range, something TJD never did. He’s gone.
TJd in his 2nd year was already better then Romeo if I recall.
However Ware def has high potential.
Reneau I think is the greatest surprise since maybe OG Anunoby.
Maybe even better at this point in his career when compared to OGs.
Dude is solid. We technically have two absolute leading stars on the team at once in Ware and Reneau....How long has it been since that was the last case???
Reneau was a 5 star or high 4 level recruit-don't sell him short; he's not a surprise.
His versatility has been a surprise to me, at least. And he seems to have matured a lot since this time last year where anything and everything would cause him to stroke out. I think he's my favorite player this year.
Wow. Brilliant analysis. I can it's winter break as children like you are not in school and trying to eat at the adult table. Stick to Roblox.
Ware can build his body with an NBA strength trainer, that won't be a concern for his draft potential.
if he can't show some progress in the next three games then I might agree. but we are so thin in the guard ranks.
I like Reneau alot. No problem with him. Just like many on the team, we need him and others to step up and hit shots in the 2nd half and crunch time.
Watch last night game? Last chance to save any creditability of basketball knowledge.
You want Cupps over x this year and cupps gives the better chance at success?
Yes I want cupps over X.
I said last year I was hoping he wouldnt return after injury.
He hurts IU more at times doing dumb shit (again think devonte green) than helps. When he returns ill make sure to point out his extremely dumb 6 year **** ups to you since you cant seem to grasp
Not trolling here and haven’t watched IU much. But what does Cupp bring? His stats per minutes played don’t show scoring, rebounding or assists.
Is it stabilization of offense? Defense?
Not trashing the guy because the coach obviously sees value and he knows a hell of a lot more than me.

Good decision making and keeping the offense alive. Making great progress as a freshman with these minutes.
As long as you give equal time to how X contributes to wins. A big difference right now is Cupps puts very little pressure on the defense because he's not penetrating or looking to shoot. X puts constant pressure on the defense. I guess some people mistake that for being reckless.
