    I thought for sure they would call us for a foul on that.

    He tweets at halftime?  Don't let @tomcrean see that and get any ideas.

      I noticed that too. I thought he said something about him demanding the ball, but I wouldn't swear to it.

      I said early in the year that we'd only be as good as we were defensively.  IF we are starting to take on an identity as an active, aggressive team, then there might be some good times yet to go this year.

    Weren't we in the mix for this Pithford guy when he originally committed to Florida?

    I just turned on the BTN for the game.  I noticed Purdue was playing but I couldn't tell at first if it was the men's team or women's team.  Then I noticed that Purdue had a number by their name indicating they were ranked.  That's when I knew it had to be the women's team.

      Except with The Lord of the Rings.  I read the books after seeing the movies.  Deciding to read those books was one of the five worst decisions of my life.

    Rapid Reaction IU vs Illinois

      Completely agree with the possible not probable statement.  At least now I have some hope which was something I was lacking driving home from the MSU game in Bloomington.

    Rapid Reaction IU vs Illinois

    I will admit I tend to be the eternal optimist and I can wear crimson colored glasses at times, but I agree I think this team can put together a season saving run.  That might not mean the NCAA tournament at this point, but it could mean finishing strong (including a deep NIT run) to give us hope heading into next year.     IF, and I capitalize if on purpose, we win at Nebraska on Thursday we will end January at .500 in conference.  That sets up a 10 game season if you will to end the year.  There are some tough ones to be played, but if we can find a way to 6-4 in those games we might just get the RPI bump we need to slide in.     The team is not anywhere near where any of us want them to be, but I think they are further along than they were a month ago.  I'll enjoy that for now and get ready for another big one in Lincoln on Thursday.

      We should reverse it.  The team should rush up into the stands.

      That's why Howard comes in for D at end of games sometimes.

    Howard looked like he was ready to poop his pants when Yogi fired that pass to him on the break.

      I agree, and I'll admit I was one who wanted to see him transfer earlier in the year although I never posted that on here.

      Doing good.  I've been really busy so I haven't been able to post as much as I'd like recently.  I had to preach this morning and the next two weeks as well.  I'm getting ready to start grad school too.     How are you?

    For the record:  I'm starting to really hate Groce.
