Barnes loves him some Carey, and I have no clue why.

Yep - It's easy to press inferior talent. You can't press equal to better talent effectively. I'm not a huge follower, but didn't she move away from the heavy subs and press when we starting playing better a few weeks ago? Why is she back to what is not working if so? Eye test says that the...

I'm a casual. I've watched 2-3 games this year. After watching most of today's game, they played offense a lot like the 4th and 5th grade team I just coached. A lot of standing and watching whoever has the ball with no intentions or purspose of ever doing anything else. Even when we were...

This is the key if we're tied to two bigs this year. Give Felix, Carey, and Brown some room to breathe down there if JP can knock it down at the top of the key. Plenty of Barnes sets have the big landing there. Let's see what happens.

It's a storm that just keeps brewing. When they lose us, all these TV deals and lack of decisions in the name of the almighty dollar don't matter as much. Ask NASCAR...

Just out of curiousity - who would be a name or two we could theoretically actually do this with?

I'm not sure why it didn't happen, but I remember Duke Miles was in play late. Hindsight 20/20, but he looks like a pretty good player for our competition.

I bet their practice habits have something to do with that too. Hopefully the next thing Heup can improve here

I think this narrative is way overblown on the age of Indiana's roster.

Hopefully - Plus Evans, Henderson, and JP getting 10-15 minutes each as well.

Going to be hard to guard 4 shooters playing 2 bigs...

He was bad against A&M certainly. As far as the rest, he's a combined 8/14 from the field in SEC play. It's going to be hard for him to impress in 10 minutes a night. He also had multiple deep seals where the guard wouldn't get him the ball. I trust JP to finish those at a high clip. Carey is...

Yep. Barnes can gripe about ZZ and Mashack not being here, but playing Burg over Henderson was a big factor in them losing. Plus, what did Carey give you in the final 6-7 minutes? He continues to play big minutes for an unknown reason to me.

Whatever Barnes thinks Carey is or can be, he's not. I don't understand why he has such a long leash other than he rebounds hard, which is what Barnes loves more than anything. Most of his rebounds are probably his own misses though...

I could totally be wrong, but I think Indiana is still using an older model of jersey Adidas used. I've always thought the lettering and numbers looked cheap with Adidas as well. It does not seem as bad with Miami, Texas Tech, and Texas A&M. I believe those are the newer templates. Less is...
