We are a decent defensive team and playing ok on that end. But we have not had agent shooter since yogi. None of our guards can shoot or create their own shot. Seems Miller is just lost when comes to offense. We will struggle mightily

Agree to a point but we need to aspire for more. This is Archie's best team and still likely going to finish 8th or 9th in conference.Tie game ..At number #20 on the road.
What's the bi*ch ?
Othe teams have D1 players too.
Gezz..
Steve Alford? Lol. GtfohMiller isn’t the guy for this job. Even Steve Alford would have done better because of his ability to recruit. A Sweet 16 sounds pretty good right now.

Have you ever heard the phrase "grass is always greener" .. that dude is the epitome. He hypes anything and everything that's not Indiana and makes Eeyore look like the Dalai Lama..Steve Alford? Lol. Gtfoh

I watched same thingFinal thoughts:
With shooters & 3-pt shooters on the floor, TJ Davis could average over 30 ppg. IU played tough defense against a ranked team. I watched one ref (the bald dude) for about 6 minutes in the second half and he called everything for FSU, including out of position calls and an over-rule.
FSU had droughts too. The difference in the game was just finishing the play. How many friggin layups did we miss! That’s not on the coach.CAM cannot get rid of his continuing trait of 6 minute plus scoring droughts.
Yes, yes you can blame Archie. Its been an ongoing theme for 3 years. You can develop 3 point shooters or at least have them shoot at a higher percentage then they are nowThey've been getting plenty of open shots, they're just missing. You can blame Archie for not recruiting more shooters, but it's not his fault that they can't hit a wide open three.
Nope. At this stage you are either a quality shooter or you are not. Oddly, more guys improve in the pro's than in college - mostly because it's their full-time job. Failure to make open shots is not on the coach. Failure to recruit players who can consistently make open shots is.Yes, yes you can blame Archie. Its been an ongoing theme for 3 years.

Unfortunately, he has been unable to get outstanding shooters to choose IU. Unless he gets that turned around, we aren''t going to be a B1G champion, or a Final Four contender. Nobody is elite without one or two dead-3 shooters. No coach in the country is good enough to contend for a conference title or final four without players who can stretch a defense, and those guys arrive on campus with those skills.
Are you serious, or just being sarcastic?Bring in Leal to shoot 3s when you need them?
Why was he recruited then if he can't play D and guard anybody?Are you serious, or just being sarcastic?
One thing is for sure, He is not a three point shooter.Why was he recruited then if he can't play D and guard anybody?
i'm not denying that. You have to be able to successfully recruit just as much as you have to be able to handle all of the other aspects. If he can't convince better shooters to matriculate to Bloomington, we're going to be a program that's always competitive, tough to play against, well-prepared, but not good enough to win B1G titles or make deep tournament runs. And Archie knows that better than anyone. We have to stop being also-rans for top shooting talent.Don’t look now, but you just articulated exactly why it IS his fault.
