I also dont think they would fire an iu guy after 4 years. He is one of them so my guess is we would get probably 6 years.
If you can find them right now. Sure.
No one is happy, but whining about it doesn't help anyone. You don't whine, just to clear that up. You talk about basketball. Others, it's almost all they do.
I don't care how someone feels. It's not about the name of the poster, it's about the name of the site.
Team is in a huge funk right now. They need to regroup.
Let me tell you what "further back" looks like.
Sitting here this week with:
Eight wins rather than 16
No TJD
Shooting far worse than we have
Archie Miller as a lame duck
No solid recruits coming in.
No idea what is next
This is where we would have been had Scott not pulled the trigger
THAT...is "further back"
I've heard people say that we would need like Kentucky-level recruiting to make this system work. I could see that being true, but I hope you're right.
This should be an ncaa team period
Thats what phillips said. But look at penny he has tons of talent and still cannot win.
This is a dumb take. For gods sake look up Penny. He was a highschool and AAU guy. He was never an NBA guy. Can’t even compare Woody to an equivalent. You guys try to find any negative.
So here is a basketball question.
I would assume every coach that plays Wisconsin wants to take away Davis, and feel if they can do that they will win. What is the best way to do that (for sake or argument, the best way for IU to do it)?
If it had to be an IU guy Alford was the only choice that made any sense. But Steve has that massive ego and no one bigger than the program ever again...
lol ... hell if I know.
Hope he's off.. Deny him the ball first, gamble and send a 2nd player and see if he passes. Which would be dangerous. Put one player on him and no switching. Maybe Galloway?
He doesn't need space or many dribbles to hit shots and operates well in the mid game. That's hard to stop in any level. Hopefully were not in a situation where Davis matters.
You're free to lump me in with whoever you normally interact with on this forum. But I'm just pursuing this line of thinking. I'm not attached to anything. I just want elucidation. It is supposed to rain later though, so I'll give looking to the godless sky a try.
I’ll bite. The swing offense can be hindered by making them put the ball on the floor. They want to screen and pass. Take them out of that first. Try funneling them into the middle. You must get defensive rebounds too. Limit their possessions. I’m not sure how to defend Davis. You put your best defender on him and don’t switch. Wisconsin gets space off switching. That’s my take. I’m sure TMP will respond.
Don't help on their bigs, no need. Weak side post goes for blocks, when available. Everyone else stays extended pressuring to speed them up.
If we could actually get into transition it would help.
Late game, if close, put Galloway on him and have him face guard 90' if he gets the ball make him give the ball up by doubling (if prudent). Make someone else beat you.
Or win by 20 ... so he doesn't matter.

Exactly, and I totally agree. Nothing worse than a big man high ball screen offense. I hate it. Hate it at any level except NBA.
