I figured Boswell is pain management, but there's no risk of reinjuring or making anything worse if he plays. It'll suck if he gets slapped on the wrist, but I'd assume he's have some protection there.

With an ankle....they're tough. You don't want a two week injury turning into eight and you don't want him favoring the ankle and to compensate, pull a hamstring. If the injury was the "iffy", I don't know how he could have even been in the questionable category on Tuesday.

79-77 IU if we have a 6 man rotation

Like a fall back school you’d go to if you didn’t get into Univeristy of Illinois 😎
I didn't have one then paniced when UIUC introduced "the lottery" that year because the school was getting "too elitist" like that was a bad thing. I got in anyway

For those that did and didn't watch BU's interview, it needs to be clocked that Lee doesn't play right now because other teams don't have to guard him. Clogs the middle. Depending on KB tomorrow and Drej, you could see Petro.

Nope. Indiana has played 3 games against ranked teams on the road this year: loss @MSU by 21, loss @Michigan by 14, loss @Kentucky by 12.

I think it's just right.
I hope you’re right, but we are not healthy. I expect Kylan to play tomorrow but he hasn’t played in several weeks and will be rusty.

I would be surprised if Andrej plays tomorrow. Perimeter players have REALLY hurt us, and Wilkerson is no joke.

I think we win, but I expect a dogfight.

As of now
-10.5 tells me boz, andrej are not playing

This was same line v Wisconsin

Wisky is better then indy

We won’t see Andrej but Kylan will play a handful of minutes. We also need to see Petro some to give Keaton a break. Sorry but he isn’t THAT horrible that he can’t play 4-5 minutes a game.
I am 50/50 on Petro. If Andej and KB each play 5 mins that will do it.

That was a problem. The only thing that I can think of from the Wisconsin game is that Petro and Lee are undersized guards and we were being absolutely demolished on the boards. Lee was in for one minute and was a -3. That's not ideal.

They're going to have to be able to find 3 or 4 minutes from each guy IMO. That assumes no Boswell. If course, he could play. You're right. It's a big time rival and we NEED the W.
You are 100% correct in your observation. But when gametime comes, all of the analytics and even the "gas in the tank" levels become less important simple due to the adrenaline in the moment.

I am reading alot of analyzing about the past 2 losses. But the truth is we make out FTs against Wisconsin and we avoid 1 lane violation against MSU and we are in the top 3 in the country. Nothing changes that. I recognize those are large "ifs." Is this team that good even when they are not healthy? A: Yes
