But seriously, I think we have some things to work on in practice. <br><br>Coach, we heard your teams used to play defense at Oklahoma...what happened at Indiana? I was just wondering because your teams consistently allow easy layups and give up open looks for threes. I mean it might just be me, but it seems like your team doesn't know how to switch or fight through screens. Again, my middle school coach's number is....<br><br>Response: Well, our guys have worked really hard this season on getting a 3.0 GPA, but uh, uh. I think we have some things to work on in practice. <br><br>Coach, what kind of rebounding drills do you run? I seriously question how Gordon got injured, because based on recent events, I wonder if you've ever run an effective rebounding drill. There are terms such as \"block out\" and \"box out\" that most middle school players are familiar with. Again, my middle coach's number is...<br><br>Response: Uh, well I think we have to do a better job of practicing hard. Our players need to recognize that they have things to work on in practice. <br><br>Coach, what did Mike White do to finally get playing time? Can you please let AJ know what exactly that was. I mean, he might not be the answer, but some playing time might help.<br><br>Response: Uh, AJ is a good player and I respect AJ as an athlete, but since I did not recruit AJ and wanted Gordon to be a superstar, I was afraid that given AJ any playing time might bruise his ego. Oh and we have some things to work on in practice. <br><br>Coach, have you heard of a halftime adjustment? An adjustment after a timeout. Just a simple question, because I'm not sure if I've ever seen the Hoosiers come out of halftime or a out of a timeout with anytime of gameplan. <br><br>Response: Well, I really hate to blame my players, but we just haven't been hitting shots. We seem to not understand how to hit a basket after zero passes and no dribble penetration and no screens and no concept of a team oriented offense. We try to hit 30 foot three pointers and I just don't get it. it works in NCAA College Basketball for the PS3. My son said so. It's really confusing. I thought these video games were simulations of real life, but I guess I was wrong. We even tried the Wii. That was EJ really hurt his hand. He snapped too hard on a move in WWE. We we were taking a training break. Maybe it is time to come up with a new coaching strategy, other than video game simulation. I don't know.

Seriously with the talent this team has, 10 minute scoring droughts should be a thing of the past.  A constant reminder of how not to play, however last night there it was.  People standing around, staring at Gordon, waiting for him to save them, or watching DJ work his ass off rebounds, while no one helps.  DeAndre sucks, worthless on the glass, can't hit a bunny.

The only good teams we've played we've gotten beat by, but I believe the weak schedule was an attempt to try and build confidence and mesh this unaquainted team together. We lack talented size. I thought we'd get something out of Eli other than a red shit....but it was probably for the best. We need size to with the Big 10. In 01 we had jefferies....newton....leach....and....odle. 4 decent rotatable players between 6'10 and 6'11. This year we have a 6'9 PF...a 6'6 center. A  6'6 center will not win the big 10 or at least it shouldn't. <br>For this team to be sucsessful we will have to TAKE BETTER SHOTS. We wouldn't of beat wisconson if it wasn't for poor shot selection. We also need to fire on all cylinders. Crawford is a fantastic player. He needs to show up. We need him to contribute consistently.<br>Anyway....I knew from the time I got my schedule we'd loose @ Wisconson. I am more pleased with our road wins at Michigan, Minn, and Iowa. Thats a big step from a team that hasn't won on the road in a long time. If we get Illinois and Ohio State on the road we will be in good shape. I have faith in this team. They haven't been playing very well in the big 10 and we've won 3 games on the road....we are still tied for number one in the big 10. The only thing we have to do is when we are given an opportunity we need to take it. Everytime we have to chance to take the bull by the horns we blow it.<br><br>Go Iu", "is_last_child": false, "can_reply": true, "down_voted": false, "real_date": "2008-02-02_00:39:49", "killed": false, "user_key": "5d4d1354460ef8e5fe163591100fdd2c", "has_been_anonymized": false, "edited": false, "author_is_moderator": false, "from_request_user": null, "votable": true, "date": "1 year ago", "approved": true, "num_replies": 2, "is_first_child": false, "email": "", "parent_post_id": null, "depth": 0, "points": 0, "author_is_creator": false, "is_realtime": false}, "121106": {"up_voted": false, "ip": "", "has_replies": true, "message": "Jerry....I think another interesting thing is...I believe teams game plan to stop EJ and DJ and not our offense...which is easier to do given what measure of offense we run.

I can honestly say I\'m shocked no one mentioned the biggest play of the game:<br><br>With about 6:39 on the clock, we closed the deficit to 5, had Wisconsing reeling on offense and played 34 seconds of lock-down defense.  After a missed shot, the rebound was knocked out of bounds leaving one tick on the shot clock.  All we had to do was play 1 second of defense and block out.  If you all remember, we didn\'t.  We got out-hustled, Wisco got the offensive rebound, drained the clock another 20-25 seconds and put the league back to 7.  It was the absolute back breaker after seizing some serious momentum.<br><br>That play is a microcosm of this team against quality competition.  It has nothing to do with Sampson\'s coaching ability nor does it have to do with any singular individual player.  It was about effort and defensive awareness.  There is only so much Sampson can do as a coach.  I\'m not sold on Sampson either in the long term, but he sure as hell doesn\'t deserve the majority of the blame.  Coaches coach.  Players play.</div>\

I hate Duke, and think the 3rd Circle of Hell is reserved for Paulus, but look at that team at timeouts and after a foul.  They like each other.  They depend on each other.  They\'ve got their arms around each other.  That\'s what this team doesn\'t have, and that\'s something that could develop at Illinois.<br><br>Without "that", this is a classic IU team that loses in the 2nd round.</div>\

You can call it boring or slow but they get good looks and are in position to rebound and get second chance points.  <br><br>I\'m tired of reading about Ratliff and I\'m sure others are too.  I also want to see him play more but he is not the savior in any way and when he is in he doesnt play well enough to deserve more PT.<br><br>I really don\'t know how Sampson won at Oklahoma.  When we hired him I thought if he could win with crap like Hollis Price and McGee (or whoever was on that team) then it should be easy here.  I havent seen the tough hard nose D and rebounding that was his trademark and have not seen any improvements to the Mike Davis O. <br><br>Too much was given to Gordon\'s wrist.  If the wrist was that bad he wouldnt be able to do anything with it...yes I saw a 2 handed follow up dunk as did you.  If anyone out there has hurt a wrist they can attest.  All the trainer had to do was tape it up instead of putting a thick, slippery, ace bandage soft cast on it.<br><br>If anything happens to DJ we are bottom of the big ten heap.

If he goes pro no doubt he\'ll be a top five pick, but he doesn\'t have that \'it\' factor. The thing that Kevin Durant has. The thing that LeBron has. The thing Kobe has.

Wilmont and Calloway wouldn\'t have allowed this game to get that far out of hand. This year it seemed that DJ was the only one who was trying to WILL the team back in the game for a while. <br><br>And did it seem like to anyone else that Steve Lavin was flirting with Erin Andrews?

I have grown up watching IU teams that were known for their ball movement and intelligence.  They sometimes weren\'t the most athletic teams but they were smart and won games because of it.  Wisconsin proved how brains and efficient offensive execution win basketball games last night.  As the big ten season goes on I have a strange feeling that my confidence in this team is going to dwindle.  I will be surprised to see this team get past the sweet sixteen if changes aren\'t made on the offensive side of the ball.  I don\'t know where the blame should be put but I think the majority of Hoosier fans will agree that Kelvin may not be the right man for this job.  They are running basically the same terrible offense that Mike D implemented. And there was little to no improvement from the UConn loss.  Why?  Also, the lack of another big, complete lack of a point guard, Gordon trying too hard, turnovers, and the minuscule brain of Jordan Crawford are leading this team to an early NCAA tourney exit.  The only consistency has come from THE MAN down low DJ White.  He has been one of the most enjoyable players to watch all season and has made me proud to be a Hoosier.  I hope this prediction isn\'t true but like I said my confidence is dwindling.</div>\

We cant guard anybody with 2 players over 6-8 with some talent and play at the same time, period. I mean who is going to guard them after DJ? The answer is, uhh nobody. Its not that surprising and defiantly not anything to get that upset about, especially on the road when EJ is hurting. Maybe our bad schedule gave some of you a false since of security,  that and many of you on here feel like AJ Ratliff is good for some reason. Outcoached? Please. Try watching a game and using some common sense next time before getting your pannies in a bunch over road loss to the best Defensive team in the Big 11.</div>\

I could understand that we lost  while trying to incorporate a new offensive scheme ( aka picks on the paint so eric gordon could utilize his speed so he could an extra second to shoot the ball), but instead we saw the same exact crap for the wisconsin game.  Every team in the nation knows how to play against us, and its a little to easy for them to figure us out.  I originally thought that Coach Sampson was going to make this a great team..  If the defense was good as last year I wouldn\'t be worried, but  its nowhere close.  I loved coach ,but I\'m going to be honest guys.  I think he\'s on the hot seat if nothing big happens in the tournament.  Also I don\'t like how he has an attitude problem with the media, and is always so upset and acts like a jerk when someone asks him about phonegate.  I personally don\'t think phonegate itself is a big deal, but at the same time he put himself in that situation and he\'s going to have to learn to take it.  I hope he can turn it around, and not be stubborn to stick with the same stupid game plan.</div>\

Crawford was waiting for the screen, he thought dj would step out and hedge, <br>Crawford just stood there and watched hughes/flowers go in for an incontested layup. I don\'t know who to blame these mental lapses on:  the coach or maybe IU players are just dumb. I don\'t know. On a different note, someone mentioned before about the boring motion offense. Coaches should do whatever works. It could be because IU\'s shitty defense but Wisconsin had some really easy uncontested layups. I don\'t think IU got one all game.</div>\

You know the one where screw around setting screens 25 feet from the basket only to let the shot clock wind down and hoist up a contested 3.  Seriously with the talent this team has, 10 minute scoring droughts should be a thing of the past.  A constant reminder of how not to play, however last night there it was.  People standing around, staring at Gordon, waiting for him to save them, or watching DJ work his ass off rebounds, while no one helps.  DeAndre sucks, worthless on the glass, can\'t hit a bunny.  Mike White not a scorer but at least he will get down there and bang.  Finally, Stemler, oh Lance, how I long for the day that you prove you are worth all of the minutes you get.  I am not talking about the 3 you hit at MInnesota, not going to lie that was a big shot but, you can\'t rebound to save your life.  You don\'t box out, you can\'t hold onto the ball, tell me why you get so much PT.  Is it because you hustle?  Because you sure as heck can\'t shoot like you were supposed to be able to do when we brought you in here. <br><br>That covered the front court, hats off to D.J. for yet again playing his ass off with no help down low.  This brings me to the backcourt, especially Ellis and Armon, they were nonexistent.  Stupid pass after stupid pass, only to be followed up by a pulling up for a three on a fast break.  Seriously, this is not the AND1 tour, there is no cohesiveness with the team right now.  Everyone wants to go 1 on 1 and make a flashy pass or throw up a contested fade-away.  Part of it is the players attitude and part of it is Sampson\'s fault for not having a resemblence of an offense last night.  Memphis can get away with a freestyle offense because they have the size and atheletisim to get second chance shots.  That isn\'t going to work for us, we have to get into our set early and get good shots.<br><br>I knew this is what was going to happen, we started off the season on a tear, faced a good team in Xavier and got crushed!  Then we get back on track with okay wins, then back to back losses against a rising UCONN team and WIsconsin.  Granted Bo Ryan is like 103-6 all-time in the Cole Center but we were out coached, out classed, and out played in every facet of the game.  We have a lot of growing to do and March will be here before you know it.  For me I am going to enjoy the time I have left with EJ and DJ, and pray that Sampson figures out how to coach.<br><br>/end rant</div>\

The boys did not play well last night that\'s for sure.<br><br>I want some of you to help me a bit here in terms of what goes on in Assembly Hall or any of the Big Ten forums for that matter as I describe what it\'s like to play here.<br><br>UW has a crazy 95-5 record here over the last 100 games, maybe better. So I\'m at this game last night and it instantly reminded me of why that is. These fans, for 40 minutes, refuse to allow anything to go down that does not favor this team. I\'m not talking about the obvious rooting for this and that. I\'m talking NOTHING. They want WI to win 100-0. Every....single....call for the love of Almighty. These people would be just fine if UW had zero fouls, turnovers etc. it\'s unbelievable. The pressure on these refs is enormous and none other than Bo Ryan leads them all. I cannot in words describe how rediculous it was last night.<br><br>Maybe it\'s just an IU thing, having all those championship banners and all. But it was just hard to watch for 2 hours. So my question is, do we do that in Assembly Hall on a regular basis? Because what I saw last night was just embarrassing. I\'ve never heard a collective 17,000 fans bitch about a 13 point victory. It was amazing.<br><br>Let\'s hope we are playing better come March because right now we are not nearly as good as advertised. By the way, the officiating was stellar last night. It really didn\'t favor either team but it certainly helped UW with their style of play.</div>\

	 <div id="dsq-comment-message-117316" class="dsq-comment-message">Forgot to mention the declining offensive play of Jamarcus Ellis, that other posters have brought up.  First off, that block in the 1st half was absolutely redonkulous.  You simply can\'t teach those kinds of things.  But let\'s cut to the chase.  ITHers, we definitely have a new "Undisciplined One."  <br><br>Where is the playmaking ability that made us fall in love with Ellis?  I\'m talking about the driving and dishing that made Sampson label him as a Euro-type player.  Lately, we\'ve seen a lot of driving, absorbing contact and then throwing up an awkward, off-balance one-handed 12 footer.  And we don\'t even need to mention his hideous jumper. Believe it or not, I\'ve actually started to scream "no no no" as soon as Ellis starts making a move to the rim.  On top of that, his foul trouble last night hurt bad.  We needed his length on the boards after he picked up his 3rd foul.  He still finished with a team high 13, but his fouls were very "undisciplined."<br><br>Maybe I\'m just pissed because I\'ve never seen so many one-handed put backs in my life.    Again, we know Sampson has rebounding drills -- that is afterall how EJ injured his wrist.  But the onus is on the players to get a body on someone when the ball is in the air.</div>\

Those Ellis blocks were amazingly athletic plays. White is easily the most athletic big man in the Big Ten. (What happened to him his sophomore and junior years?) Gordon is, obviously, an explosive freak.  And you guys play good defense. Have you not seen Pomeroy\'s ratings? You just need a few more forwards to grab some rebounds.  <br><br>Also, if Bassett or Stemler could hit an open shot, you guys may very well have won that game. You\'re not going to shoot below 20% from outside very often.</div>\

Let\'s hit the media for its inability to ask the tough questions...<br><br>Possible Questions To Ask: <br><br>Coach, do you run an offense? If so, what offense do you run,? Because we can\'t exactly figure it out. Please enlighten us. <br><br>Response: Uh, Uh, I think we have some things to work on in practice. <br><br>Coach, have you heard of a screen? If not, I can talk to my former middle school coach. He can give you a call or you can call him. His number is...<br><br>Response: Uh, well, you know my issues with cell phones. Ha ha. But seriously, I think we have some things to work on in practice. <br><br>Coach, we heard your teams used to play defense at Oklahoma...what happened at Indiana? I was just wondering because your teams consistently allow easy layups and give up open looks for threes. I mean it might just be me, but it seems like your team doesn\'t know how to switch or fight through screens. Again, my middle school coach\'s number is....<br><br>Response: Well, our guys have worked really hard this season on getting a 3.0 GPA, but uh, uh. I think we have some things to work on in practice. <br><br>Coach, what kind of rebounding drills do you run? I seriously question how Gordon got injured, because based on recent events, I wonder if you\'ve ever run an effective rebounding drill. There are terms such as "block out" and "box out" that most middle school players are familiar with. Again, my middle coach\'s number is...<br><br>Response: Uh, well I think we have to do a better job of practicing hard. Our players need to recognize that they have things to work on in practice. <br><br>Coach, what did Mike White do to finally get playing time? Can you please let AJ know what exactly that was. I mean, he might not be the answer, but some playing time might help.<br><br>Response: Uh, AJ is a good player and I respect AJ as an athlete, but since I did not recruit AJ and wanted Gordon to be a superstar, I was afraid that given AJ any playing time might bruise his ego. Oh and we have some things to work on in practice. <br><br>Coach, have you heard of a halftime adjustment? An adjustment after a timeout. Just a simple question, because I\'m not sure if I\'ve ever seen the Hoosiers come out of halftime or a out of a timeout with anytime of gameplan. <br><br>Response: Well, I really hate to blame my players, but we just haven\'t been hitting shots. We seem to not understand how to hit a basket after zero passes and no dribble penetration and no screens and no concept of a team oriented offense. We try to hit 30 foot three pointers and I just don\'t get it. it works in NCAA College Basketball for the PS3. My son said so. It\'s really confusing. I thought these video games were simulations of real life, but I guess I was wrong. We even tried the Wii. That was EJ really hurt his hand. He snapped too hard on a move in WWE. We we were taking a training break. Maybe it is time to come up with a new coaching strategy, other than video game simulation. I don\'t know. I guess we have plenty to work on in practice. <br><br>Thanks for you time Coach Sampson.</div>\

	 <div id="dsq-comment-message-118111" class="dsq-comment-message">Even with two of the best players in the country on their side, the Hoosiers are a mediocre team at best.  The overwhelming reason for their mediocrity is poor coaching.  They have no offensive plan, or if they have one it\'s badly misconceived.  Though Sampson is sometimes referred to as a defensive coach, the team plays lousy defense.  In the first half last night Wisconsin was running a virtual layup drill; after IU made its run, its hope of completing a comback was negated by total failure to block out on the defensive board.  Other than the play of DJ and EJ, this team has little to recommend it.  I see a 12-6 Big Ten record at best, maybe 11-7, with a NCAA 6 or 7 seed and a likely first-round flameout.</div>\

The players looked completely shell shocked and were rattled. I know it may seem ridiculous to call for Sampson\'s head already, but I really don\'t think he is the guy that is going to lead us to the promise land. With all of the talent and offensive fire power on this team there is no reason to go on long stretches without scoring. ABSOLUTELY NO REASON. Look at teams like Duke, North Carolina, UCLA, Wisconsin AND EVEN PURDUE. They play with intensity on defense, they have offensive systems that can get them easy buckets when they need it the most. They have a rhythm! IU doesn\'t. <br><br>I know it\'s difficult to win at Wisconsin, but didn\'t all of you expect to at least see us play better after the loss to UCONN? We played even worse. I look back to the coach and wonder why this team never looks prepared.</div>\

No one said we could turn this around after losing to UConn with a Staples Easy Button.<br><br>Here\'s how I look at our 2 losses (heaven forbid we have 2 losses!):<br><br>a) Sampson and the players both overlooked a team playing without its 2nd leading scorer and a key bench player.  Sort of a poor man\'s Ewing theory courtesy of Bill Simmons (man, I love everything that guy writes except when the Pats are discussed, which is ad nauseum these days).<br><br>b) Why are we freaking out about this loss to Wisco?  It\'s a road loss.  A top 15 loss.  I mean, if we\'re gonna lose, it might as well happen to a good team.  Remember Michigan St?  The team everyone supposedly fears lost baaaadly to friggin\' Iowa.  Just an off night for our shooters going 3-21 from downtown.<br><br>Socks, it\'s true that DJ and EJ are probably the two best players in the Big Ten.  But you can\'t play basketball 2 on 5.  That only accounts for 40% of the team on the court.  MJ and Pippen needed Paxon/Kerr.  Kobe and Shaq needed Robert Horry.  I apologize for the NBA comparisons, just having a brain fart for dominant college tandems.  Point is that for this team to compete, we need contributions from our role players.  Here\'s the good news. Bassett won\'t go 1-7 every game and Jamarcus won\'t always be in foul trouble.<br><br>Do not fret Hoosier nation.

I have grown up watching IU teams that were known for their ball movement and intelligence. They sometimes weren\'t the most athletic teams but they were smart and won games because of it. Wisconsin proved how brains and efficient offensive execution win basketball games last night. As the big ten season goes on I have a strange feeling that my confidence in this team is going to dwindle. I will be surprised to see this team get past the sweet sixteen if changes aren\'t made on the offensive side of the ball. I don\'t know where the blame should be put but I think the majority of Hoosier fans will agree that Kelvin may not be the right man for this job. They are running basically the same terrible offense that Mike D implemented. And there was little to no improvement from the UConn loss. Why? Also, the lack of another big, complete lack of a point guard, Gordon trying too hard, turnovers, and the minuscule brain of Jordan Crawford are leading this team to an early NCAA tourney exit. The only consistency has come from THE MAN down low DJ White. He has been one of the most enjoyable players to watch all season and has made me proud to be a Hoosier. I hope this prediction isn\'t true but like I said my confidence is dwindling.</div>\

How many times in the last  few years has Indiana been entered as a "contender" for the Big 10 race 6 or 7 games into the season, and then turned out a mid conference stand still. Purdue is on this boat. Look at the schedule.....@ Michigan State - this is one you need for a title run -loss. IIlinois at home....who can beat Illinois...maybe northwestern. @ Iowa....probably thier 2nd best win...come on. @ Penn State....wow they beat a basement team. Iowa...Ohio State...Michigan at home.....not that hard to accomplish.  Win over Wisconson at mackey....best win.<br>Now then......<br>I\'m almost sure Ohio State and/or  Michigan will return the favor. I don\'t see them beating Michigan State.....and no way in hell will they beat Wisconson at home. I don\'t know if they\'ve played minnesota...but that won\'t be an easy win. In Bloomington it will be a good ol\' ass kickin\'. Mark my words. So that pussy 1st half big ten schedule with one loss will easily turn into 5 or 6. Not going to win the title. So fuck purdue.<br><br>The hoosiers are streaky. Its fusterating. The only good teams we\'ve played we\'ve gotten beat by, but I believe the weak schedule was an attempt to try and build confidence and mesh this unaquainted team together. We lack talented size. I thought we\'d get something out of Eli other than a red shit....but it was probably for the best. We need size to with the Big 10. In 01 we had jefferies....newton....leach....and....odle. 4 decent rotatable players between 6\'10 and 6\'11. This year we have a 6\'9 PF...a 6\'6 center. A  6\'6 center will not win the big 10 or at least it shouldn\'t. <br>For this team to be sucsessful we will have to TAKE BETTER SHOTS. We wouldn\'t of beat wisconson if it wasn\'t for poor shot selection. We also need to fire on all cylinders. Crawford is a fantastic player. He needs to show up. We need him to contribute consistently.<br>Anyway....I knew from the time I got my schedule we\'d loose @ Wisconson. I am more pleased with our road wins at Michigan, Minn, and Iowa. Thats a big step from a team that hasn\'t won on the road in a long time. If we get Illinois and Ohio State on the road we will be in good shape. I have faith in this team. They haven\'t been playing very well in the big 10 and we\'ve won 3 games on the road....we are still tied for number one in the big 10. The only thing we have to do is when we are given an opportunity we need to take it. Everytime we have to chance to take the bull by the horns we blow it.<br><br>Go Iu</div>\

	 <div id="dsq-comment-message-120077" class="dsq-comment-message">I like coach Sampson and think he was the best proven ( Tony Bennett was not yet proven )and available coach for the job. I still do. None of us know what the coaches see in practice and in games that focus their strategy , style etc. When recruiting an "off the bounce" style helps land big time players.<br><br>That said , so many of us are smart observers of the game and clearly see stalled progress on both ends of the floor as well as mental intensity  that a major change is needed.<br><br>I would suggest to Sampson that he stand back, start with a blank sheet, and reengineer the team\'s style of play and player rotations to see before too late if there are styles we actually are more effective at.<br><br>My top changes would be to consider:<br><br>1. ZONE about half the game with zone press and zone traps thrown in<br>            Why ? reduce fouls, reduce mismatches athletically, improved rebounding<br>2.PLAYER ROTATION : Start Mcgee and Crawford <br>             WHy? youthful enthusiasm, atheletic, offensive minded, can play zone<br>3. OFFENSE: all you guys have several right ideas</div>\

I token zone and zone press would help protect bad defenders on a few series and lead to some easy baskets.  I know McGhee is raw but he sure as hell isn\'t any worse than Mike White and Stemler and he could add "something" <br><br>I also think Ellis needs to be encouraged more to look for his shot...EVERYONE is keying on EJ.  I just don\'t understand some of the decisions that are being made as it relates to how this team plays. <br><br>My biggest fear is the expectations for this group will get pissed away because of coaching and my childhood hoosiers will continue to be the Hoosiers I LOVE, more than my adulthood hoosiers.......</div>\

Besides EJ and DJ, Bassett, Crawford, Stemler and even Ratliff are far better shooters.  <br><br>Jamarcus\' role is clearly defined:  when his head is in the game, he is our stat-sheet stuffer (credit to Clark Kellogg).  Ideally we get 10 points, 8 boards, and 5 dimes from him.  Maybe a steal, a block or two, and some sound defense.  <br><br>From an offensive standpoint, I do like his slashing game -- barring the fact that he is not out of a control and throwing up a one-handed knuckle ball.   Bottom line is that I prefer him to be our offensive facilitator.  He\'s shown great chemistry with DeAndre in the pick-and-roll, but that\'s been non-existent as of late.  If he\'s gonna "look for his shot," I think we\'d be far better off with him slashing and dishing off to the open man when the defense collapses.</div>\

He wanted to know why the Hoosiers haven’t played particularly well in their last two games.<br><br>He gave this answer.<br><br>“I thought that last year’s team got to a point where they just got better. But they played about as good as they are going to play most nights. I just haven’t seen this team do that. But, you know, when you get to that point, at some point the coach has to take responsibility. I have not done a good enough job with this team to get them to play the right way, whether it’s defense or offense. For me, and I speak for myself and the coaching staff, we have to do a better job coaching this team. That’s really what it comes down to.”<br><br>POSTED ON HOOSIER SCOOP</div>\

Which is why you see EJ struggle a git here lately.  They can spend countless of hours working help D vs. EJ and forcing him to make and take tougher shots. I coached  h.s. basketball for 4 years and it was so much easier for me to game plan to take away one player than to control a good offense.....<br><br>I hate to say it but KS comments sound a LOT like Mike Davis....<br>"i\'m not sure"....."I just don\'t know".......<br><br>We are 20 games in and we "still" don\'t know who this team is? We don\'t have a label other than DJ and EJ as I have said before....<br><br>I don\'t like saying it and I know most of us don\'t like hearing it but....Purdue...has label...it showed today at Illinois....home or away...senior or frosh....THEY PLAY HARD every game every play......will we go to Illinois and get after it....we will see....<br><br>Now I will go and wash my mouth out with soap cause I just complimented Purdue again...</div>\
