    I just clicked on here to knock on Bardo.  It is soooooooooooooo obvious he wants LIU to win.

    Look at that, ball movement out of the half.

    Said it earlier, and I'll say it again.  I know we're shooting crap tonight, but I'm more worried about getting our D locked in.  When we start turning defense into offense, we'll be fine.  That's going to be our calling card this year.

      I'd try not starting Will and bringing him off of the bench.  I think he might be more comfortable with that.

      We are a really talented team this year, but we are EXTREMELY YOUNG.  It's going to take time.  We are going to have to be patient with this team.  That's not fun, but it's reality this year.

    I know we're shooting the ball awful tonight, but our defense hasn't been anything to write home about either.  This team will only be as good as they are good defensively.

    IU 28th in AP poll

    I'm kind of glad we're not ranked at this point.  I want this team to have to earn it like we did Cody's freshman year.  (I do realize we're ranked in the coach's poll.)

    Indiana Pacers 2013-2014

    This Pacers team is one of the most enjoyable basketball teams I have ever watched.  They have a great feel for playing together and they share the ball tremendously well.  There are no egos on this team and they are stone cold locked in on getting that one seed in the East.  60+ wins is a real possibility.

    Indiana Pacers 2013-2014

    Going for eight straight.  Glad to see Quinn back on the broadcast tonight.  
  15.   I agree on that.  It has to be called consistently regardless of a team's reputation.  My big fear is that a team like Louisville that bumps and gets handsy a lot, but has a reputation for being tough defensively will not be called as close as Somewhere St.  
  16.   Teams can still play defense.  They just have to do it by moving their feet and not clutching, grabbing, wrestling, and molesting (e.g. Badgers, Wisconsin & Boilermakers, Purdue) like they have been getting away with for the last several years.     Teams that are long, quick and athletic, like our Hoosiers, will still be able to be excellent defensive teams because they will be able to keep players in front of them without the use of the hands.

    Indiana Pacers 2013-2014

    Big night last night for the Pacers.  Not only did they get a huge win in Brooklyn, but Miami lost as well.  As of now the Pacers are at least 3 games up on every other team in the Eastern Conference.  I love how this team is not shying away from the fact that they are after the number one seed in the East.  They are legit contenders this year.

    Colts vs Rams

    Well that didn't go as planned.  
  19. It's going to be ugly in the short term, but in the long term it is going to make for the betterment of the game.  Now teams like Wisconsin and Purdue will actually have to learn how to play defense and not just how to mug and wrestle.  How beautiful will it be to watch a game against Bo Ryan's Hitler Youth Program where they won't be able to grab guys and bump cutters?

    The high water mark was four of us.  One was watching on a severe delay so that took it's toll.

    Winning doesn't change the fact that Mallory still has to go.
