Next Year without Juwan

Be nice to have all the players who stay for next year be healthy. No excuses for how they are playing but clearly the talent level drops after the starters with who is available.
 
Unless we get some shooters I don't see us any better then 15 wins. Were losing all of our scoring yes we have a 5 star forward coming in and maybe a five star Guard but I don't see either making us any better then 15 wins. So Archie after 3 years

Do you give him 4 years?
 
If Brooks comes, CAM will have a top notch class to go with Phinesee, but honestly not convinced it will matter either way.

Brooks s not a guard and ESPN has him rated the #7 power forward in the country.

Ask yourself this. If CAM isn't the guy, who is? More importantly, who would come to Bloomington who might be THE GUY? The flame is burning mighty low these days.

Yea I give him the contract and see what happens but for gosh sakes don't make the Crean mistake and offer an extended contract without some demonstrated sustained success

I never liked the hire to begin with but they will give him 4 before pulling the plug and making the next bad pick.

I don't think the current roster minus Romeo and Juwan can be over .500 next year. The BIG just keeps getting better and unfortunately Indiana isn't. How many road games can u see IU winning next year?? 1 or 2 maybe??

I think we just need to accept the fact we will always be an average big ten team. We have tried four coaches now and we still are not elite.
 
First off, I'm a Purdue fan, and I can't believe I'm actually going to try to talk you off the ledge even though it's kind of funny to watch.

You guys should be fine next year. Phinesee (sp?) Is a good player who will get better. You have a top 50 type talent redshirting because of injury. You have a good class coming in. IU should be at least a bubble team next year with that talent. I don't think your coach has shown himself to be any good yet at game planning, but he's doing a good job bringing in talent. I'd be shocked if next year wasn't better.
 
I just want the most talented guys who go after it and fight.

You have to have a motor to be successful in college basketball. It's a brutal game that will bully you if you coast.

Like Bob Knight said, 'I know you think you are playing hard but you're not. I'll tell you when you are'.

I kindof feel sorry for Nick Richards. The guru's had him as a top ten, 5 star post player who very obviously has a very low motor (it's obvious in the HBO documentary Student Athlete). He's currently ave 3 points a game at Kentucky.

Lots of crystal balls out there.
I've not seen Brooks verbal...Yet.
But no one knows how next years team will respond..
 
other team's players get better as well

Other teams will lose important pieces too. We aren't going to be the only team to lose a couple all-conference players. Maybe, just MAYBE...it's too soon to be predicting how next year is going to go. Like, MAYBE we oughta to at least see our team play once before we write the team off.

I’m not sure why a 5 star would want to come here. I know Romeo is probably wishing he hadn’t. Sad.

I would make a run at Bennett and offer 6 million a year. Virginia is a football state and he might bite. If not try Barnes

We need some height.[/QUOTE
Agreed! no real threat under the basket. Moore looks like he is improving but we need a BIG man (and maybe an outside threat or 2) 6'7 and 6'8 doesn't cut it most nights in this league.

No. No. No. Good gravy, how did Nevada get into the top ten? Their administration had a desire to do the right things to get a good team. It starts with the administration. The coach is just middle management, the AD just above him. Hold back your donations to IU and maybe McRobby will listen.

by getting 9 transfer former problem players from other programs.

Not sustainable.

The administration didn't scout, or recruit or them, the coach did.

lmao "Nevada made a commitment" that ish is rich.

Yet, there they are, #9 in the nation.
The administration Okays and pays for whatever the athletic dept done. That the coach controls the budget that ish is rich!
 
Isn't there an NCAA rule or an act of Congress forbidding anyone taller than 6-8 from coming to Indiana University? Because the recruiting sure looks like there is.
Really dumb. Look at the roster.

Crean loved wings. As do I. Had buffalouies after the game.
