Gosh we suck. I actually thought we’d win this game. I was one of the first to see our deficiencies, but I thought our losing streak would end tonight. So sad.

Named after Max MontanaHoetzel no doubt.

 

He's almost 25 so not likely. Maybe Max Power.

Well Max MontanaHoetzel is also almost 25. 

Maybe they were once conjoined twins.

We dont look like we belong in this conference. That was about as bad as ive seen. Can we find 2-3 more wins?

[Alford Bailey 12,259]

Imagine paying good money for a seat to that debacle.

This might be the first time in my life I’ve been embarrassed to be an IU fan. I want so bad to believe and put my faith in Archie. In a way, it feels like if he fails, we’ll never get back to what we were. That’s what is so defeating. I think others feel this as well. We know our clock is ticking..and it’s almost midnight
 

I feel the exact same way. I had some optimism last year when we finished 9-9. Thats all gone now. The season seems lost already.

Silver lining....I might be able to finally see a game from the lower level

Penn St at home was IU’s best win in conference last year and they were (9-9)
6 wins came against the bottom 4 teams

He took full responsibiliy for the debacle and even used the word embarrassing. So theres that.
This was a perfect contrast between a team that can shoot and one that can't.  CAM needs to figure it out one way or another.

Next two are back on the road. Better figure it out fast.

So whats your point? You expected us to finish below .500. You do realize we still play those teams this year

I think his point could be that we, in a season and a half haven’t beaten any good teams in conference play, none

Michigan: Here IU we gonna let you back in it.

 

IU: Nah, requires too much effort. We gonna miss numerous free throws and layups.

My dog Milo did not enjoy this game. He would now like some Jack Daniels in his water bowl.

 

I hope in the name of everything holy that you let him have it!

Im well aware of who is left on the schedule. I’m also aware last years team didn’t have any wins over any tournament team. This years team has beaten at least 2. I’m actually one of the few that still think they can turn it around after the Sparty game. It’s clear IU is not the same team they were early but I feel they can compete with Iowa, Ohio st, Rutgers, Illinois, Minny, and even Purdue at home.

This is what happens when a lawyer with zero athletics experience is hired to run the Athletics Department and millions is diverted from the budget to Fat Aussie’s pet projects.

Do Glass and McRobbie realize what terrible PR the university is receiving right now? That isn’t good for donations or admissions. Decades of neglect and penny pinching have come to roost.

What does hiring Archie Miller, who was a good hire at the time according to almost anyone who spoke on the matter have to do with Fred Glass' ineptness running IU Athletics?  He is doing his job exactly as the administration wants him to.  He didn't come up with the kumbaya, we don't want athletics to define the university garbage.   McRobbie?  Board of Trustees?  There's your blame.  Glass is asked to run a business in the black; make everyone feel good; and use "one team" as his mantra.   NOBODY cares about winning anymore.  That's what makes me absolutely sick.   We blew up our culture 19 years ago.  This is what it looks like.  This isn't on Glass.

Bring on Michael Lewis.

Does Fitzer even look at the rim when he shoots?

Almost anyone?  So there were those that foresaw this?  Maybe we should listen to them this time.

Fire everybody.  Start at the top and blow this up.  This is embarrassing.

Cam was pissed early on.  You're going to see a different team next year.  Time to clean house.

Not even close 

I’m a bracketologist and just point out what those 9 wins actually were against.   

I’m clearly not happy on how we are playing right now but I’m willing to give the coach time to see his first recruiting cycle make it to their senior year.   By the way I would of done the same with whoever ended up coaching.   Even your guy Marshall
