Or Neil Bresnahan has some eligibility left?

So much lack of hustle, rebounding, and D, yet Rodgers has only 4 minutes.
This has been a frustrating team to watch to say the least. We get back on track and than all of a sudden tonight we’re back to where we were 4 games ago.
Now 11 for 12....91% is not bad though. Can't imagine ever beating IU when they hit almost 70% of their field goal attempts...even if they had no starter over 6'5".

I'd suggest doubling him.
Don't want to bury yourself down 21.
TJD is 11 of 12 from the field. Rest of IU is 15 of 28.
Nahh, there’s not much force. More like salsa and ballet with a spin and a twist. We suck at guarding him. Period. Double him and maybe he wouldn’t be on pace for 40
Really it just hasn't been a good game for us. I do think we're playing hard, we're just getting worked today. We also look like we've let our woes on offense affect our defense.
Yes. They’re playing out of their minds. That said we should have doubled davis to get the ball out of his hands.
Indiana is shooting 64% from the field, 50% from three.
Losing at home is really a problem. We haven't yet hit the harder part of our BIG schedule.
The Illini defense has just been terrible the entire game.
We never had a chance from the start. This is some of the worst game planning I’ve ever seen. Had we doubled TJD and forced him to pass, maybe they’d make threes and long twos but they wouldn’t shoot nearly as efficiently as the 90 percent in the paint or whatever it is right now.
Some may think Mayer is doing nothing...but any B1G team can take any player out of the offense if they want. Mayer has been so key to recent success, his teammates have come to expect that and are just not being aggressive and/or hitting shots they need to make to compete. The result is yet another B1G head scratcher no one expected. This game is over. One team shoots 70% while the other shoots 38%...guess who wins?
The difference in the game is we can’t make our free throws we have not shot the ball well. Compare that to IU and they can’t miss in the paint. We have played better than the score would indicate
We are not playing MN
“I could tell in practice, that we were gonna be in trouble. We didn’t have a good practice”
Dain's a step too slow to guard TJD and CoHawk has been a complete no show tonight. Been a bad matchup.
