On Wednesday night, Indiana did not play particularly well overall, especially on defense. But the Hoosiers shot well and played with better pace offensively, which was enough to beat a depleted Minnesota team. After the game, our crew broke it all down on The Assembly Call IU Postgame Show.
On the mics: Andy, Jerod, and Ryan
Among the topics discussed:
— Why 3-point shooting keyed Indiana’s victory, and has become a legitimate strength for this team
— The importance of Trayce Jackson-Davis’ improved start and key buckets in the second half
— What is going on with Indiana’s defense?
— The up and down night for Rob Phinisee and Al Durham
— Jerome Hunter!
— This was a good win. But how impressed should we be with it given the context?
And much more.
We also point out a few meaningful moments you may have missed, go inside the numbers, and hand out our game balls. All of that, and more, on this edition of The Assembly Call.

On Saturday afternoon, Indiana came up short in yet another measuring stick game for the Archie Miller Era. The Hoosiers fell behind early again, and never truly threatened Ohio State in a game where the guards, once again, didn’t measure up.
After the game, our crew broke it all down on The Assembly Call IU Postgame Show.
On the mics: Jerod, Andy, and special guest Mark Titus from Titus and Tate
Among the topics discussed:
— Why slow starts keep plaguing this team
— What to make Trayce Jackson-Davis. He got his numbers, but did he play well?
— Why Jerome Hunter was one of the few bright spots for Indiana
— Some maddening decisions by Archie that left us baffled
— Why Mark continues to think Indiana is going in the right direction, even if it’s taking too long to get there
— Mark updates us on his foundation (ClubTrillionFoundation.org) and what we can do to help
And much more.

On Wednesday night, Indiana overcame a horrible start and 38 minutes of sluggish offense to find a way to win a double-OT battle against Northwestern. When someone needed to step up late, Al and Armaan made the plays (and free throws) needed for victory.
After the game, our crew broke it all down on The Assembly Call IU Postgame Show.
On the mics: Chad, Ryan, and IU Artifacts
Among the topics discussed:
— Why Trayce struggled (again)
— Jerome’s Big Shot
— The heroics of Al and Armaan
— Why the continued slow starts are unacceptable and need to change
— What this win means in the larger context of the season
— And much more
