If so, I pray that Glass announces this before the Big Ten Tourney and Crean coaches out remainder of the season. Give the players and Crean a way to stick it to IU and win something. Also turns into a feel good story. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners

That plane took off from Indianapolis before going to Bloomington earlier today before it left for Missouri. Could be Crean's agent? Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners

Indiana's Road to March Madness
IU Hoosier41 replied to IU Hoosier41's topic in Indiana Men's Basketball
The path to 20 wins isn't that difficult. Indiana can beat every team in our path, we've seen it. We aren't as bad as the record shows. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners -
I thought it would be interesting to take a little deeper dive into Indiana’s season. Obviously it hasn’t been good, but has it really been as bad as the 17-14 record indicates? I decided to go through the schedule and analyze the last 5 minutes of every game to see how the games played out. It’s actually crazy looking at how close so many of these games were down the stretch. We REALLY missed some senior leadership in these games. Have to think Hartman would have helped us pull out a couple of these. Close Games we won: 1. Kansas: Hit 16/18 free throws down the stretch. Key here is we went to the line 18 times as we were aggressive and didn’t sit back and rely on threes. 2. Penn State Gm 1: Horiffic melt down leading by 8 with 1:18 to go. Shot 2/7 and 4 turnovers before JBJ bailed us out with a late 3 to win. 3. Penn State Gm 2: Missed so many free throws down the stretch of game and first 2 overtimes. Shot 4/10 from the stripe before going 10/10 in 3OT to run away with the game. Also had a boatload of dumb late turnovers. 4. Northwestern – Shot well from the field and stripe, only 1 turnover. NW imploded. Close Games we Lost: 1. Fort Wayne – didn’t score in final 4:13 of overtime, shot 2/11 and had 4 costly turnovers. We beat ourselves. 2. Butler – Cut the lead to 2, shot 33% and had a really rough out of bounds call on us. 3. Nebraska – Missed front end of 2 one and ones. 4. Wisconsin – late turnovers after we cut the game to 3. 5. Maryland – 3/7 shooting in final minutes, missed front end of a one and one. 6. Iowa – Obviously the worst collapse we had (while not winning). Led by 2 with 3:31 to go and committed 6 turnovers while missing front end of a one and one while shooting 42%. Free throw discrepancy here was ridiculous. Also Iowa capitalized by making damn near every free throw. d7. Minnesota - Horrible break here by a horrendous last second shot bailed out by lack of JBJ boxout and put back win. Conclusion: We beat ourselves a ton. Most of the time it wasn’t the other team outperforming us, it was us not closing games. Senior leadership was really missed on this team in crunch time. We’ve lost 9 games this season where we were right there down the stretch within the final 2 minutes. Let’s just say the ball bounces the other way in a couple of those games. 4 game swing would have us sitting at 21-10 going into the Big Ten Tournament. Not where we want to be, but a much different feeling for Hoosier nation than we currently feel. Only 5 of our 14 losses have been definitive losses where the other team beat us. 9 losses we beat ourselves down the stretch. Will be interesting to watch the Big Ten Tournament if our offense is clicking like it was today. I actually hope we play on Wednesday to pick up another win and gain some confidence to make a potential run. This applies more this season than most… Indiana is our most dangerous opponent. We can beat anybody... including ourselves. PS I want us to win out and make the tournament. I think our coach decision won’t be impacted by the rest of this season so let’s get behind the boys and win some damn games!
