Immediate Post Game Reaction: IU vs NC State

Rapid Reactions:Jordan Hulls was aggressive taking threes and driving the ball. He was the first player on either team in double figures.Victor Oladipo was solid on defense stuffing his statsheet with steals, rebounds, and a couple of emphatic nice dunks.Christian Watford looked steady. He didn't throw the ball away as often and made some quality shots.Cody Zeller was the “savior” that we all thought he would be. Rebounding, hustling after loose balls, and break away dunks led to a very encouraging eleven point lead.Then the wheels came off...North Carolina State started rebounding everything...

Immediate Post Game Reaction IU vs Butler

Rapid Reactions:In the beginning, I am not sure if it was great defense or extremely sloppy play by both teams. The game turned into a great defensive effort on Indiana’s part in the second half. I was very proud of how Indiana turned up the intensity in the second half.Statsheet Stuffers:One of my favorite players from last year, Will Sheehey, came to play tonight. Sheehey and Zeller’s play turned this game from a nail-bitter into a blow out. Hulls showed great leadership and Oladipo continued to show his unbelievable athletic ability.Not so Great...Watford and Jones III. What in the world...

Cody Zeller - I'm trying to contain my excitement....

Immediate Post Game Reaction: IU vs. Gardner-Webb

Rapid Reactions:I will start off by informing you that I was not able to give my full attention to the game as it was played on Monday night which happens to be the same night as my bowling league. I actually bowl in the Purdue staff league (my wife works at Purdue) with a Kentucky fan, so please don’t stop reading my post game reactions, but I did watch the game on BTN live stream without the sound.From what I saw, IU started out fast and blitzed Gardner-Webb from the start. Our offense was clicking and the defense started off locking down all of their shooters. One thing I noticed was Cody Zeller...
