Indiana Men's Basketball: Winners on Any Given Night

    We got the Ohio State Buckeyes last night in Bloomington. I watched it. Freshman Jalen Hood-Schifino was crazy good in the first half, and maintained good play throughout. Sometimes super sub Jordan Geronimo was out with a leg injury, so freshman Kaleb Banks came in and put up some really good minutes.

    Guys who did not get many numbers all contributed: the coolest thing is, any of them on a given game can do really well: Trey Galloway, Miller Kopp, Tamar Bates. Race Thompson, of course. Still waiting for fifth year senior Xavier Johnson to get healthy, and with Geronimo back we may be able to handle Purdue and other top performers, to include Rutgers and Northwestern. 

        Yes, the Scarlet Knights and Wildcats have had our number! Iowa, too. We need to get back on them.

    But again, the team is balanced, and hard to predict, because someone now steps up and performs and wins. Malik Reneau has been playing huge, which is what I was hoping when I first saw him play in November 2022. 

    We may get all those guys to play big and be a team, and move on into March. It can happen.

    Can we do it? I think that we have a chance! 

    Go IU!
