IU Hoosier41

[quote name="BlueDevil2aHoosier" post="30021" timestamp="1389750511"]They booed crean Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners[/quote] It was LOUD. Never seen anything like that before in all my years of watching sports. Thank God it turned out for us.

[quote name="RoadToZion" post="30190" timestamp="1389812087"]JS serious question, did you go to IU and what years? [/quote] https://btownbanners.com/index.php?/topic/3011-BtownBanners-Meet-and-Greet/page__view__findpost__p__5925

[quote name="JSHoosier" post="29658" timestamp="1389718980"]The Bad Call Brick? A foam IU brick? I nearly got one of those when I was a student, I figured if we were going to keep Mike Davis as coach I'd probably need it.[/quote] haha that's the one!

Very well said. Going to promote this to an article.

Rumors or not, JH's play on the court has deserved a benching. What has happened since then? - Indiana wins two must win games - AE steps up and plays solid minutes. Plays hard like he WANTS to stay out there. - Stan had gotten increased minutes and has played his @$$ off. Not always making the smart play, but is adding value to this team - The team is together and super focused. Regardless of why he is out, good things have come from it which leads me to saying it's a good move. Look at how Noah and Yogi reacted to their benching last night. Coach Crean is taking control back of this team and it couldn't have happened any sooner.

I've actually read, I'll have to search for it, that ESPN encourages rushing and requests all the guards to block for them instead of stopping students from rushing. It makes good tv.

[quote name="Kilroy" post="30182" timestamp="1389810442"]sure? I was on the bench behind Crean for the minnesota game and i don't remember any court storming.[/quote] Check that, Minnesota was the hallway concourse thing where Crean came out and went nuts with everyone.

Read this, I think he nailed it. [URL]http://m.espn.go.com/general/blogs/blogpost?blogname=collegebasketballnation&id=92622&src=desktop[/URL]

[quote name="Kilroy" post="30179" timestamp="1389810158"]anyone have a list of times IU has rushed the court? I can think of yesterday's game, Kentucky, the Michigan State game back in 2000 when Hastings hit the last second shot, and one other time where I can't remember the team. Missing any?[/quote] Minnesota and Illinois during Crean's 6 & 10 win seasons.

Agreed, I still do t personally like the tactics and game changes by Crean over his tenure. But he got that one right last night. Give credit where credit is due.

[quote name="Hovadipo" post="30153" timestamp="1389805566"]Also, to whichever Admin on the BtownBanners twitter page that posted the picture of Yogi in the crowd from Sportscenter: That was a fantastic picture. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners[/quote] That was me. And that was one if the main reasons my view on it changed.

It's more of a product of ESPN than anything. It's an experience college kids want to have. It's on bucket lists. It's here to stay so we might as well accept it. I used to have a major issue with it, but now, I don't care anymore. Other programs (UK) can say what they want. If their students had as easy access to the court as Hoosiers do it would happen. Assembly Hall is the PERFECT storm for students to rush.

[quote name="IUfan_Charlie" post="30115" timestamp="1389797218"]The court stormings seem to have occurred more frequently since the Wat Shot[/quote] This is the first time since then.

[quote name="IU Hoosier41" post="29644" timestamp="1389712548"]Wait for it.... Wait for it.... Indiana 68 Wisconsin 67 Only reason why, I'll be there and IU doesn't lose when I'm there.[/quote] I may need to start going to every game.

You guys are missing the bigger picture here. Indiana just won a road big ten game and beat the #3 undefeated team at home in back to back games. Let the chips fall where they may, my team is on the floor!

[quote name="JSHoosier" post="30092" timestamp="1389751604"]I guess they think it's cool. They're wrong. I thought they might stay put at first....one of these days I'll stop underestimating stupidity.[/quote] You can blame ESPN for the court storms. They encourage it by showing every court storm on TV. The promote it because it makes good television. I'm sure they loved it last night.

Crowd is growing restless...

At the game, can't comment much, great atmosphere!

Important to note this Wiscy team is nothing like the ones that have demolished us in the past. They are much more uptempo. That being said, I'm sure the banked three will be open today...

1. The passion that is Indiana Basketball 2. the fact IU fans can fill 1,000 different IU websites 3. Seeing Hoosiers stuff everywhere I travel and instantly being able to talk to those people like we've been friends for years. 4. Assembly hall 5. The feeling I get everytime I walk into Assembly Hall. 6. Constant memories from all my shenanigans down at IU. 7. Reminds me of my Grandpa and his IU Brick that he would throw at the TV screen on bad calls. Too many things to list honestly. Such an awesome place and awesome group of fans.

That spread is mind blowing considering the past history against Wisconsin... I honestly want to call a bookie and bet my life savings... What the hell am I missing? On another note, I'll be at the game and I'm on a 15 game winning streak for games I go to :)

Wait for it.... Wait for it.... Indiana 68 Wisconsin 67 Only reason why, I'll be there and IU doesn't lose when I'm there.

Hey at least he's consistent and across the board with his views :)

Tough game. No clue why you don't go for that last 4th and 1 with 8 min to go down 21... Just lost 6 minutes
