IU guys, with Davis out do u pretty much play small ball. Or do you have another big guy that stepped right in. I haven’t seen many of your games
6'7 Morgan, 6'6 McSwain manning the 5, morgan been playing 35+ minutes.

I must admit when Crean signed Morgan I thought it was a bad move. Just another of my many bad takes.
its only irrelevant to you. and it looks Painter might not be that great.
12-13 8-10 16-18 9th in the BT
13-14 5-13 15-17 DEAD LAST IN THE BT.
Fran's teams have never finished DEAD LAST IN THE BT,
although the excuse will be flowing shortly
Painter was hand picked by a Hall of Fame Coach in Gene Keady.
Fran took over a team that went thru 11 years of its worst stretch in the history of the program,
without Creaning or bring in player kick off another team because of legal troubles, in year 2 produced a winning season 8-10 and a trip to the NIT
in year 3 the team went 9-9 and finished in 6th alone and recorded 25 wins the 2nd most in Iowa's history. ending up in the NIT Championship game
in year 4 the team went 9-9 and 6th alone this time reaching the NCAAT
in year 5 the team went 12-6 finishing in a tie for 3rd and the teams 1st NCAAT win since the 2000-01 season the only season under Indiana's Golden Boy Steve Alford 8 seasons.
then losing to a #2 seed in Gonzaga after being a #7 seed.
in year 6 after being picked to finish 7th at best and 9th or worse they went 12-6 again finishing in a tie for 3rd in the BT. again winning a 1st round game in the NCAAT, this time after being a 7 seed they lost in the 2nd round to #2 seed Villanova who went on to win the National Championship.
all that with just 2 4* players in the 2012 class.
year 7 they were picked to finish 10th or worse in the BT and yet they went 10-8 finishing in a tie for 5th with these
10-8 MSU
10-8 NW
10-8 Michigan
also under Fran Iowa has had 4 straight seasons with 1st Team All BT players and a 2nd Team AA.
only a fool would try to discredit a coach that has accomplished all that with the talent level in his 1st 6 seasons.
the talent level has been greatly improved to what it was under Olsen and Davis, when they went to the FF, Elite 8, Sweet 16 and recorded a BT Championship. oh and Davis's teams NEVER LOST A 1st round NCAAT Game going 9-0, while guiding his team to 11 post season Tournament in 13 seasons.
