Less is more with Trevon the offensive end and he’s struggling to grasp that
well that’s not true.

You could see the shift when he started to play more one-on-one at the top instead of doing the little things, such as putbacks and cuts to the rim.
Just watching UCLA's first possession with IU in a zone. Shot goes up and Balo blocks out air. Two offensive players go around him to get inside position for a putback. This is simply grade school level. When a shot goes up, every defender should be looking to block out someone....and all defenders should be between an offensive players and the basket. Should never allow an offensive rebound in a zone. But if you don't play it other than as an anomaly then you don't know what to do...and the Hoosiers sure don't
Jake Davis needs to teach Boswell his signature flat-footed, no jumping layup technique. Dude never misses!

The games where he was getting 20 points he was barely touching the ball except to finish plays. That's the Tre we need and his feel for cutting and moving off ball is too damn good to not be using it.
Yep. I think the insiders aren't telling us something. White was legit one of Illinois' 3-4 best players not long ago.

You can almost put him down for a layup and a made 3.
I had to read that a couple times… I thought I was in the football thread there for a second.
We have one here in Phoenix. I was surprised to look just now and see it's still open. 20 years ago I dated someone who worked there for a while, fun times those were! Wish I was that age again... I don't remember if they had/have TV's or not....lol. Let's thrash MSU!!!Yeah, it is called the Great Alaskan Bush Company, but I am not sure they have a TV.
DGL is gone, Brad won’t put his chips in on him to play starter minutes next year. DGL will look for a place he can get guaranteed shots/mins. Just my opinion.
Will be hard to promise Morez a starting spot next year or maybe ever imo unless he can shoot the 3.
Tomi next year, then year after next Luigi from overseas would be my guess.

Don't need to lose one of our favorite posters to a car accident!
I will rue the fact that Rodgers redshirted in large part due to Tre’s presence (+ Riley), and Ty would’ve been great as high energy wing defender, cutter, and glue guy, all things we need from Tre. Major mistake by the staff to signal Tre would be above Ty on the pecking order. Ty has his warts, but we knew that mentally, he was an all-in team guy.

That's making the assumption the staff signaled to Ty Tre was going to play ahead of him. It's possible that Ty could see from practices where he would fit in and chose to go a different direction.
I was under the impression that signaling had been made (whether verbally or by way of practice squads, I don’t know). If that’s not the case, then I take some of that back.
I thought Tre was “one of the best defenders in the country”?
Playing to win while trotting Hummer out there 35 minutes a game is crazy work.
Sturdy!!
This is the exact footprint of a player I would never have on my team.
Naw. He just struggles with knowing his role on the offensive end. He was sick…he just wasn’t sick for 2 weeks

He plays within his skill set. Very consistent. Aspects of his game reminds me of Jack Ingram.
