Daniels really is an enigma - kid has enough talent to be a star, but his mental lapses are sometimes startling.
its sad really. We played well. I wish I could say help is on the way. I guess it is with Freeman coming back soon (hopefully) but our empty recruiting class right now is looming very large.
I can't stand watching Bishop Daniels. I don't care who you put on the floor, but someone has to get his minutes. He plays out there with no purpose and is a turnover machine..
For a Senior Daniels is the worst. I don't see him as a good player. If not for his athletic ability, he brings very little to the table.
Sanders is special. You can see what he has in him, and he keeps it throttled down to play team ball. I really like this kid. Who wouldn't want to come and play with him?
We looked like a legitimate team at least.
We are going to get obliterated next two....but maybe we can bean PSU again on 2/20.

No more than Mike Williams...guy can't hit a freaking bucket. Other than hustle plays he gives us nothing. I'd rather play Daniels.
Agree. Go back on the thread a bit and you'll see my comments and others about Williams. He is NOT a Power 5 kid. He was recruited to shoot and he can't hit two's never mind three's.
We aren't winning big ten games with our injuries at the 4 and 5 spot
It's about four pieces sanders Laurent Williams and foreman
Redshirt all three big guys
And find a clone of JUCO Jerome Coleman

You can't allow almost 80 points and expect to win....We played well offensively, 10-11 from FT, got 23 TO's from a sloppy Indiana team and shot 43% from field. I'd take half of those stats the rest of the season if you let me.
The difference between a game like this is playing better defense. Rebounding is going to be challenging without size and Freeman, but I liked what we got out of Grier now 2 games in a row. Lewis contributed and yes, Williams was off today, but we survived it and played well.
Defense, defense is the key....somehow we have to maintain this better shooting while slowing the tempo against a high powered shooting team like IU. I still don't know how good Indiana is, despite their win here today. I just feel like they play like us, just with better players and talent. Crean is definitely not going to survive or satisfy fans with a 7 point win at RU, when they are double-digit favorites.
Grier is giving us what Nigel Johnson might or can likely contribute to our roster next year. It's going to be interesting to see what recruiting can bring in and can we find a defensive first rebounder that can box out and doesn't need the ball to score.

What you're describing would actually get us on the bubble of the NCAA's tournament. I actually like the idea of redshirting the big guys as long as Corey is patient and willing to stick around.
