Magnanimous

The guy he was covering had 10 turnovers. If it wasn’t for that and Jordan stepping up offensively we likely lose last night.

If anyone takes anything other than a layup this half bench them!

We’re almost trying too hard. We’re more athletic and can get to the basket easily. Be patient and let the right guys get those looks.

IU covers -3.5 IU scores more than 28 in the first half IU scores more than 59 in the game Then I hit my parlay and am happy. Go Hoosiers!

Let today be a lesson to put no stock in his “final game.” Someone spent $500k in an auction earlier today on the football thrown in Brady’s last TD pass. Brady unretired a few hours after the auction. Link

Didn’t realize we were playing Wisconsin…

For the love of God, when someone get doubled on the block can the open player cut to the basket??

Team was better than last year’s…let’s hope next year’s improves upon this season. We don’t deserve to make the tournament (sans a great BTT run), but we are an NCAA-caliber team and objectively are a 9 seed in terms of talent. Just had a few games slip away this year that we needed to put our stamp on. Not trying to put lipstick on a pig, this program has a ways to go, but if we take that next step I think it puts our roster more in the 5-7 seed range rather than the next step being a bubble team in the tourney. I will say that last few minutes of todays game was the most alive I’ve felt as an IUBB fan in the five years, so that’s something I guess…

Strong finish to the half. X needs to keep leading this team if they’re going to keep it close in the second.

“Offense looks like complete trash” - program’s motto for the last six years.

Seeing Jaren Handy was dismissed from the team?

I’m just glad we’re finally getting points out of our backcourt.

We’re winning!

Georgia now at 6-23, and Crean has just set the school record for most losses in one season there. He now has that distinction at two schools…

Get home safe Mo! Just saw that Ukraine is banning men ages 18-60 from leaving the country but looks like it’s only nationals.

My favorite strategy is not getting the ball to your best player when the game’s on the line….

Soapbox time. My two cents on storming the court…generally IU should be above it. Us storming the court in Crean’s second year after beating Minnesota was rock bottom for the program, and yes the expectation for this program and fanbase is it shouldn’t be a surprise for us to beat anybody at home. HOWEVER… I can’t imagine how much it probably sucks to be a college student these days. These kids have had a lot of joy and potential memories stripped from them these last few years because of Covid. Wear a face mask in class, if you’re even allowed to come to class at all? When I was at IU one of my classmates showed up drunk during Little 5 week, passed out in front of the teacher and broke his nose on the classroom floor. Then he got arrested in the bathroom after a janitor found him asleep on the toilet. For some of these kids they didn’t even see their classmates’ noses for over a year. Add this on top of many of them never had a senior prom, spent weeks quarantined in their dorms, lived in a shell of one of the best college towns in the country, and may very well leave IU with a fraction of the memories most of us had when we were there. Let them eat cake, let them storm the court, and let them have some fun. They deserve it and then some. They’ll never get this time back.
