Pains me to say this

I don't think it has anything to do with the "modern game". The most entertaining bball right now, is in the NBA. If you like precise and quick passing and great shooting along with athleticism, and suprisingly good D, the NBA is great ball. The folks who bitch about the "NBA game" probably haven't watched one in 20 years. It's like the difference in clock management between college football and the NFL; the pros are just way better at it.
Ugh!
 
After watching our games so far, and as passionate of fan as i have been since the late 80s, this is the first time I have been apathetic for our team. Coach is a liability and i can't believe the lack of hustle and adjustments i'm seeing out of the team. I don't think i can support the team until Woodson is relieved of his duties. This post is simply meant for me to vent, i wish no ill will on the program. i just want to see this thing get fixed sooner than later.
You were spot on bro
 
What everyone calls a modern offense is basically hitting 3s. It doesn't matter what the teams run to do it. If a team hits 10 threes in transition or quick hits and never even run a half court set people here still call it a modern offense.

Offense is fairly homogenized with everyone running the same shit. IU runs modern actions to get the ball inside. It doesn't run many actions with emphasis on getting 3s up. Baseline pin downs and double drags, and sometimes high post staggered screens to free Mack up, is about it.

The offense is modern, the emphasis of where it wants to get the shot, is not.
35 threes attempted last night!

Ballo 4 total FGA. 1 assist
Malik 6 total FGA. 1 assist

Ten total assists.

Something’s broken
