Iup basketball

Good win, especially after yesterday. Shooting still isn’t great. Rebounding is a C- right now. Way too many second chances given up.

The obvious but worth stating: Too much KJ. Not enough Brooks. Waldo looks lost. Clarke was obviously a solid addition and Petteno seems like the shooter IUP needed despite his awful debut yesterday. The bald white referee is horrid, per usual.

If I were reading this board and not looking at the game I'd think IUP was losing by 15 points.

Waldo isn’t far off. He needs experience. KJ needs to go! Brooks should have that KJ minutes.

Zero points and five fouls seems pretty far off, but yes, Brooks needs minutes from somewhere and getting a lot of KJ’s makes sense.

[EyeoftheHawk]

Nope! BigIndians and myself just text each other the same thing. I don’t understand how Joe doesn’t see it?

The other problem with KJ in there is he can’t rebound. IUP is getting killed on the boards. He’s too slow to get where he needs to be and he’s not physical enough to make up for it. WHY IS BROOKS RIDING THE PINE?! It’s inexcusable.

Waldo is not ready for basketball at this level. Right now he’s a DIII player. How he’s getting more minutes than Brooks is mind boggling.

KJ enters the game, and NDC goes on a run. Stop me if you heard this one before.

Well we got one good half. Time for another nail biter.

[EyeoftheHawk]

They aren’t in early foul trouble which helps.

This is how I hoped to see Dillard and Stewart step it up on the offensive end.

We thought they couldn’t possibly play worse than last night and thankfully so far that’s been the case. They are imposing their size advantage on this team.

IUP by 10 tonight.

Maybe 5 years ago, the Hilltoppers lost on opening night to a Kutztown team that finished around .500. That same Hilltopper team improved over the course of the season, and played in the Atlantic Region title game. I wouldn't be surprised if IUP's season this year followed a similar path.

No chance. This team stinks.

Teddy KGB's official betting line tonight:

ND -5.5



Team Nepotism is a home dog

I’d take that bet. I think IUP loses by double digits. I hope I’m wrong and yesterday was more of a dress rehearsal, but that’s what I expect.
