IU Hoosier41

Happy new year peeps. Proud to call many of you part of my exclusive internet friends :)

[quote name="JSHoosier" post="26568" timestamp="1388540088"]I won't say anything to excuse it, period. We could've and should've won, but we turned the ball over what seemed like every other time down the court. Losing a game because, once again, you don't have a clue about taking care of the ball and turn it over 23 times is inexcusable to me.[/quote] Inexcusable, yes. End of the world, no.

Not bragging, saying that a road big ten over time loss is not the end of the world.

For those saying we can't beat any big ten team on the road. We just went to overtime with Illinois on the road.... Yea we had turnovers and didn't win, but the sky is not falling here people. First big conference road game and we push to OT? That's not HORRIBLE in my opinion.

[quote name="ccgeneral" post="26531" timestamp="1388530304"]lol. I love the younger generation thought process. Good thing alot of you are going to school and not protecting me.[/quote] Also have to remember younger generation really hasn't see. IU win. They went through the Crean early years and had to find something to be excited about!

Positive:  Our first Road Big Ten game and we went to Overtime WITH 45,000 turnovers.  I doubt we can get the turnovers down much this year, but hopefully they can improve that by next year and then we are talking! lol

Actually loved the final play drawn up by Crean.  Not much else you could do with that little time left in the game. 

Let's put Noah on the inbounder.  Get some length in there.  Or Hanner for all I care.  Make it difficult to throw the ball in bounds for once.

wow...  that's all I can say.  WOW

Been some suspect calls down the stretch... 

Dang it. Great defense and just can't get the board.

The boys are fighting today! Come on now...

Very fortunate those threes didn't drop for them. We've had our chances, can we get another and capitalize?

Damn. Really thought I was going to get my Gordon banked three right there!

I'm assuming that wasn't the play Crean had in his head... or I HOPE it wasn't!

Have to admit... It's really nice having Big Ten basketball back in my life!

Come on Yogi... Couple big free throws...

Why is there no timeout to get Noah back in the game???

BONUS is going to be huge for us

[quote name="LIHoosier" post="26415" timestamp="1388526320"]I would like to see a +/- for the team this year to see if it validates that point. I know someone on one of the varying sites I've been on the past year or two broke it down. [/quote] It's in the works. Got back logged a bit and am only half way through the season. Should have it all posted within the week.

  I actually kind of like the new SportsCenter app.  It's light years better than the way their old one worked.

Is it just me or does this team look completely different from what we've seen this year?  They look confident, and determined.  A welcome site to see!

Well Perea... It wasn't pretty, but I'll take that effort & RESULT every time!

Definitely didn't expect us to be leading this late in the game.  Hopefully we can close this game strong and pull out the W.  Would be HUGE for this team's confidence going forward through this gauntlet start to our Big Ten Schedule.

  HAHAHA.  Just spit out my drink on that one
