Todd’s Take: Returning Hoosiers Make The Best First Impression For Indiana

Indiana’s new players collectively had an uneven night, but the Hoosiers’ veterans carried the day in the season opener.

BLOOMINGTON, Ind. – You don’t get a second chance to make a first impression. On Wednesday night at Simon Skjodt Assembly Hall, the new players on Indiana’s roster had an uneven start in the Hoosiers’ season opener against Southern Illinois-Edwardville.

Kanaan Carlyle? He had a good floor game , but not a good day on the scoresheet. He was 0 for 4 from the field. “I do know we can score the basketball. Certain guys haven't really made shots like I thought they would. They'll start falling eventually,” said Woodson on the Hoosiers’ offensive identity.
