Up Next: Indiana State

[achrist70]

Well maybe we will finally figure it out. We didn't win a game over Winter Break, now we are back in class, maybe that will be the thing that gets us going.

Heard Coach Jacobson interview on 1460 KXNO this morning. Starting from the college football championship game, they were discussing how to know when to pull the trigger to replace a “known, not working” option with a more unknown, unproven option. He gave a successful example of each - a Kwadzoe example of sticking with him and winning a game against WSU on like 7-9 shooting in the second half after like 2-10 in the first half. Then bringing in Hunter Rhodes out of the blue against Missouri St last year when he had barely played before then. He said, in the position they’re in now, you think about this kind of stuff every day, and sometimes it’s just a feel you have to have as a coach.

I’m choosing to be optimistic and trust the coaches will take what they see in practice and figure something out soon. He said it may not even take as much as a win to get the offense back in synch, it could just be a good 8 minute stretch of offense or even just an 8-10 possession stretch (which with our pace seems like close to the same thing). Hopefully this starts in tomorrow’s game. Including a win.

Maybe this is the game we get it back together, or maybe we continue to do our impression of the NBA guys on Space Jam who had their talent stolen by the Monstars.

Personally, this will be the first Panther game I've missed all season. I'm going to watch something that's much better, less of a disaster, and a far better use of $10 and two hours; going to see The Room, in theaters.

[unipanthers8907]

Same here. I will not be watching this one. Maybe it will be good luck.

I can tell you that "The Room" is simultaneously one of the worst and most enjoyable movies I've seen recently.

Regarding the game itself tonight; Jake didn't forget how to coach flying back to Iowa from the Bahamas, so I am confident that at some point the team will get it turned back around at some point. When that happens I'll start watching again.

Never seen it, only know it by reputation and from the dozens of internet memes, but I seem to like funny-bad movies more than actual good movies, so I'm pretty excited.

And we've always struggled in Indiana, even the Tuttle team lost @Evansville to open up conference play, so I'm extremely confident in a loss. Hope I'm wrong. Don't think I will be. I'll be in town for the Valpo game, so I'll go see that game regardless, and if they lose that, I'll probably seriously stop watching for the rest of the year, unless we stumble bass-ackwords into the Valley title game.

[achrist70]

Same **** different game.

sorry for swearing but it is the only way to say it

[Mad Dog]

I don't know why I am watching this. It might be better to watch someone buy a vowel on Wheel of Fortune.

[achrist70]

So we play 2 guys who didn’t play on Saturday and go on 9 nothing run, hmmm

[Blue42]

We just played 4 minutes of game time with ball movement and offensive flow...

So Jake gets BK, KC and JM back up off the bench to check in.

Coach....????

[CyCarp]

Who sparked the run? ESPN3 blacked out for me.

[Blue42]

Had a line up of Lohaus, Pick, Brown, Rhodes and Phyfe that was really moving the ball and lots of player movement.

Hit some shots and got it going.

It was a little sloppy but much more dynamic.

[UNIhoops]

Phyfe, Brown, Pickford, Wyatt, hunter had the run. Klint hitting 3’s. I think he plays better rested like his sophomore year when he came off the bench.

[UNIhoops]

Coach has ran isolation plays for Pickford brown and Wyatt that worked.
