#1 question is How long until we fire Mike Woodson and we get a real coach, someone who runs any resemblance of an offense, that can motivate players and can bring excitement back to IU basketball
Tucker, while very good offensively, was far from "spectacular" on defense. He made several defensive errors (some to be expected as a freshman). The most glaring take away for me was the total lack of commitment to blocking out and pursuing out of area rebounds on our defensive end. High School teams are more committed to blocking out than we are. We expect to simply stand there and secure rebounds and these first few games have proven that to be a false expectation.
College sports are supposed to be "Entertainment". IUBB is simply not, at the moment, entertaining. The sports pundits keep making the point, especially in reference to IU football and Coach Cignetti, that teams take on the personality of their coach, i.e., focus, intensity, "chip on shoulder",and even "swag". CMW's post game pressers early put me to sleep. Hmm...
