Indiana game thread

[MuggsyB]

It's one game, but the turns have been ridiculous. 

[WellsstreetWanderer]

Long season ahead if this is the future

[Johnny B]

I don't get the defense being this bad . We have long athletic guys.

[Class71]

Until now I did not think it could get worse.

[Johnny B]

Has Owen's even played in the second half. Says a lot.

[whitykj]

Maybe Shaka should hire Wojo as an assistant 

[MuggsyB]

NJ has excellent potential. 

[Billy Hoyle]

NJ has excellent potential.

Best PG on the team right now

[MuggsyB]

Has Owen's even played in the second half. Says a lot.

Ya.  That's pretty surprising.  Even with how poorly he's played. 

[JakeBarnes]

Woof. This has been a brutal game to watch.

So glad I paid a f*ck ton of money to watch it.

[MUEng92]

Has to he one of the worst non NCATT games of Shakas tenure

True, I'm used to a game like this having the added din of the season ending

[Daniel]

I don't get the defense being this bad . We have long athletic guys.

Yeah.  Hard to watch.  Out of position, wide open threes, internal defense weak,  not many deflections  - this game will be a prep game for anyone playing us.    Really poor execution on every level on both ends of court.    On to next game

[Billy Hoyle]

Hamilton is a liability on both ends. A poor man's Dwight Burke

[MUEng92]

Do we get to complain that they have their starters in up 21 with 3 minutes left?

[Norm]

Why wait until under 4 left to play Phillips?

[Billy Hoyle]

Probably depends what teams you look at.

We aren't ever getting a Tucker DeVries to come to Marquette even if we use the portal are we?

We could have gotten a Wilkerson. Mid major guys making up a majority of IU's roster

[MuggsyB]

Obviously there are a myriad of issues.  I don't even know where to start. 

[CountryRoads]

Hamilton is a liability on both ends. A poor man's Dwight Burke

That's a good comp. Theo was also much better at this stage.

[panda]

Best PG on the team right now

Best pg when he stepped onto campus

[MuggsyB]

Yeah.  Hard to watch.  Out of position, wide open threes, internal defense weak,  not many deflections  - this game will be a prep game for anyone playing us.    Really poor execution on every level on both ends of court.    On to next game

Well said.

We could have gotten a Wilkerson. Mid major guys making up a majority of IU's roster

Man,could you imagine if we had someone that could make more than  2 3s a game?

[MUEng92]

D.O. Had a cool view of that alleyoop from the floor

[MuggsyB]

That's abysmal defense!  Good fking grief. 

[Captain Quette]

Team is young, inexperienced, lightly skilled. We are in for more games like this. The hope is that we improve over the course of the year. That being said:

1. Sean Jones is not a starting BE guard
2. Need to work hard on improving ball pressure and 1x1 D, is awful right now. Rotations late.
3. Offense - the roster is what it is. Keep working on shooting, both 3s and coming off screens, push the ball. Prayers might help

[Johnny B]

Another laughable turn
