It is Bye Week for IU basketball, which means it's a good time to check in with Back Home Network patriarch and Assembly Call host Jerod Morris to talk about what we've witnessed out of IU men's basketball this year. We talk more specifically about the situations this team has found itself in strategically and schematically, and discuss the roster shortcomings and question marks around how the team was constructed. There's some discussion of recruiting ramifications, portal usage, and what exactly makes IU an attractive destination for players moving forward. We also discuss our thoughts on how this season is likely to end, and what sorts of things IU can do to ensure that the program's trajectory is in good shape headed into the offseason, given what's already occured this season.
