Hoosier Basketball '21-'22: Welcome back Woody

[dubc47834]

Woody has regained a home field advantage for the Hoosiers - the test is now if they can win a few games on the road. Yesterday's performance against Minnesota was good, but they need to be consistent in trying to get the ball inside to the two big guys and let them distribute the ball when they can't get to the basket - the 3 pointers they were successful with yesterday were largely on the inside-out game.

It's great to see the home court advantage back. I think if they can lose no more than 2 at home, then win 2-4 on the road, they should be pretty good as far as making the tourney. I think they have a good shot and winning at least one of these next 2 that are on the road. I think both could be winnable if they play like they have recently.

I'm fairly encouraged by the way they played against Wisconsin and tPSU. They played relatively poorly but still had a chance to win both games. It's not like they need to play world's better to win, just a little bit better.

I agree....the Wisconsin game was so disappointing looking back on it. They are a good team, we had them down and out, and let them back in it.

A great 1st half, followed by a dud of a 2nd half. The way we played in the 1st half, we could beat ANYONE in the country. The 2nd half, we could get beat by ANYONE in the country!!!

Yes...any W is a good W. Some good news on Phinisee tho. Won't play Saturday, but day to day after that.

I will be curious to see how Rob's minutes get distributed come Saturday.

Do or die time for my Hoosiers.

Absolutely...these games are getting to be almost must wins. Tonite's game is huge, and getting a "W" against another ranked team will only help solidify a tourney bid. I completely understand why he had to suspend the 5, but man that lose hurts...big time!

Make no mistake: I'm a strong proponent of Instant Replay.

But I think there are limitations on what you review. If you say the ball was out of bounds to one team, you can check to make sure you got the right team, but you can't just randomly decide "Oh, the ball was never out of bounds. Ooops. We'll randomly give the ball to whoever we feel like."

I know all the rules for baseball, but is there a provision for playing a game under protest? If so, IU should be finishing this game that way.

NIT here we come. Ugh.

If I recall, one of the announcers even mentioned that he'd never seen that type of play reviewed. I agree that this shouldn't have been reviewed. Once that can of worms is opened, there's no getting them back in. I'm sure Wisconsin fans loved it tho.
