[AC] IU-Miami (Ohio) Postgame Show
Join us immediately following Indiana’s Friday night home game against Miami (Ohio) for The Assembly Call IU Postgame Show.
Indiana's 76-57 victory over Miami (OH) displayed both the team's immense potential when locked in and lingering concerns about consistency. The Hoosiers built an early lead, let Miami back in, then pulled away late behind strong performances from their frontcourt.
Omar Ballo's dominant 18-rebound, 6-assist effort and Malik Reneau's efficient 19-point performance highlighted IU's size advantage, but 16 turnovers and defensive communication issues remain worrisome with Big Ten play approaching.
Mike Woodson emphasized the need to clean up defensive switches and maintain better focus throughout games.
Other key storylines discussed:
A tale of two halves, with IU outscoring Miami 37-21 after halftime
Trey Galloway's improved three-point shooting (3-4) and overall steady play
Myles Rice's efficient 17-point performance despite some turnover issues
Mackenzie Mgbako's struggles (4 points) and the challenge of staying engaged when shots aren't falling
Strong bench contributions, particularly from Luke Goode who provided energy and hustle plays
Plus, as always, the Banner Moment, Meaningful Moments You Might Have Missed, Inside the Numbers, and our Game Balls, Hustle Award, and Lingering Questions. That's all in this edition of The Assembly Call.
On the mics: Andy Bottoms, Bob Moats, and Producer Eddie
