His success is dependent on having a healthy starting lineup. If anyone gets hurt there’s a huge dropoff because he relies 100% on the transfer portal and no one is transferring to IU to sit on the bench.
The easy schedule, is well, “easy” but it also allows him to rest his starters and provides a slimmer chance of injury.
I think all around it’s bad for the game. Everyone will start to copy it and regular seasons are going to be incredibly boring and predictable and we’ll continue to get undeserving teams in the playoffs because they didn’t lose to any of the cupcakes they scheduled.
Truly, screw Cignetti.
