Devastating loss. Absolutely devastating. Fought so hard to comeback. Had a nearly guaranteed win in its grasp only to make every imaginable error possible with 75 seconds left.

With 2 more losses next week, it could be a season on the brink. Needed this one.

Smith traveled on the shot for the lead. My question is that is a very simple play. Why is TJD leaving Smith? And then Green leaves him to just run to the basket?

Only difference is they are almost guaranteed a tournament and this loss to us is scary when you look at the schedule that is where my anxiety comes from. If we win a game this week I will feel better. I think we could easily lose 4 games in a row and hopefully not worse. That is all I am worried about

Two straight games and Archie is out-coached by arguably the worst coach in the league. Archie should have had three ball handlers in the game during the final minute. Jerome Hunter should not have been handling the ball that he threw away. It is too bad because before that miscue Hunter had played his best game yet at IU. Also, Al Durham threw up a 3-pointer with 20 seconds left on the shot clock and Green made a bad shot, though there were only a few seconds left on the clock. Archie had plenty of time outs. He needed to take one and make it clear how they should handled the final minute or more. This is a game IU definitely should have won.

Great post USPS.

I’ve been one of the “negative” posters as viewed by many. I’ve been singled out on multiple occasions. Most of us have. I’ve seen other “negative” posters get teamed up on. It all creates a divide. It should never be an issue.

I don’t think I’m negative at all but I ride with IUBB and it is what it is. We’ve not been a good program. I want hope. I like hope. I look for signs of hope. I want IUBB to get great and be feared.

Some people only post to pick on the “negative” guys. I’ve said before, we become a winning culture and most of that dies down. But it won’t entirely. Heck, look at Kentucky after all their success, they have a bad season, and a quarter of their fanbase wants Calipari fired.

I enjoy the back and forth. I enjoy both sides, because sometimes I see points I’ve not considered. I like to think I’m open minded. We all should be. When and if we become great again I’ll be head cheerleader enjoying the victory laps.

Let’s just leave to drama, namecalling, hate in the past. When Indiana is great, let’s rejoice. When we suck, let’s bring the pitchforks because that is what fans do. We shouldn’t take ourselves so seriously.

That’s how I feel too. Cautious. Feels good winning but the wins could be camouflage.

One game at a time

I like them both. Would be happy with either one.

Of course my wife plans a skating rink family trip starting at 1pm. Lol. What are the odds?

Hmm, where’s this come from? Do we like him as a player?
Probably would take us out of the Furst sweepstakes, I’d think.

It’s a coin flip anymore on if the NCAA will approve a waiver. Forester got a waiver to play at Temple, Green got approved a waiver going from Kentucky to Washington without having to sit out a year but then Quinerly from Nova got denied and he has to sit out for Bama this year. It’s all in the NCAA hands

Aminu would be a day one impact guy, love to get him. Not as high on Duncomb or Thomas, but seem like they fit the mold of the “4-year player” that Archie likes. Haven’t seen much on Sparks or Thomas. Are they highly regarded? Either way, good to put as many recruits as possible behind the bench for prime time games against ranked foes at the Hall. 

Big list of visitors at Indiana today including Aminu Mohammed, Logan Duncomb, Shawn Phillips, Payton Sparks & Pierce Thomas. IU commits Anthony Leal & Trey Galloway will also be on hand

Unfortunately this team SHOULD have that player right now, and his name is Devonte Green. He is the alpha scorer we need, but just lacks the self awareness to mentally dial it in and consistently show up ready to make the right plays. Really rooting for it to “click” before the end of the season for him; because he would be a huge missing piece if it did. 

Yep I can imagine the cheesy commercials now. 
 
“Hi when I’m not on the court and need of good defense I go to Kenn nunn. He’s a real baller”

Man, this team would be scary in a year like this with a player like that on this team. Just a dude that can get buckets. Open the middle. Take over so we don’t have 8 minute stretches without a field goal.

Watched Brooks miss a wide open alley oop pass when he could have just caught it, gathered his feet and done whatever he wanted to with it.
 
Kentucky regains possession and hits Richards for an oop same possession.
 
I’m certain Brooks is all sideways in his head, but he’s getting minutes on a national title contending team. A second weekend team. I’m sure he isn’t as good as those guys getting more minutes. But he IS better than he’s playing now. Cal needs to get him out of his own head.
 
But honestly, I’m rooting for some vengeful epic collapse.
