  1. WSU also had shot ruble showing losing to USC yesterday and then Bama tonight. They have a good excuse with Van Fleet out though.
  2. Wow, what a finish to the Northeastern @ Miami game. NE beats the U. Lots of upsets the last few days.
  3. 4 of 13 is great!  He would be signed to a multi-year, $100+ million contract in MLB.  We're getting a steal!  - Fred Glass
  4. Think Monmouth beat UCLAat in their opener. March Madness could be even crazier this year.
  5. Go to bed Nips, you're drunk!!!
  6. That length of the court pass was nice. She also had a few other flick of the wrist type passes that had some heat on them. Think that first song was a twerps song???
  7. Here's another way to look at it..   What perennial top 25 program(s) would be lining up to sign Crean if he were fired?  If IU were to let him go what would be a reasonable destination for him?     I'm guessing a lower tier power 5 conference team or a decent mid-major is where he would land.  I also believe that's the best fit for him and his family.
  8.   It seems like it because it is like it...  We've had 21 frosh from 2012 to 2015.  UMich is the next closest with 15.  That doesn't include transfers.  I believe they've had the same turnover with players leaving to the pros as well.  We've also had a number of assistant coaches or other personnel leave town.
  9.   Crean's had about 6 more recruits over the last 5 years than any other upper tier B1G program.  That doesn't include Zeisloft, Bielfedlt, or Newkirk.  That seems like a good recipe for success in the B1G.  
  10. What's the probability he'll recruit more bad apples...?  It seems quite high.  Also it's convenient for him to divert the attention from his turrrrble coaching.  If he magically recruits good apples who work hard will another few sweet 16s be good enough for you?
  11.   MSU, Wisconsin, UM, O$U, and now Maryland are all in better shape now while having more success the last 4 years.  They've also had less talent and spent less money.  If we're happy with a middle of the pack program while spending more than those programs we've got our guy.  I'm not satisfied with the results and don't believe it's acceptable at IU.
  12.   They need benched.  If Troy rebounds again with one hand when he can get it with two, he needs benched.  That cost the team a possession and an easy two against Wake.  I guess it does look cooler to rebound with one hand though...
  13.   1)  He recruited those players to play for him   2)  He continues to clap them on as they throw a pass into the 10th row.  He encourages them to take a contested jumper.  He urges them on as they play at a speed they're not able.  He benches players after they get hot while keeping players in that consistently get beat on defense.   3)  He might understand the game of basketball but is not elite in teaching it or holding his players accountable.   4)  When you see this kind of ball year after year who do you blame?
  14.   Easily sweet 16 teams.  Every team we play are at least sweet 16 teams.
  15. Coffee kicked in and I just boiler'd up!
  16. I miss this...
  17.   Because Crean
  18.   Coach wouldn't be keeping his promise to Yogi to be a starter.  Wait, coach doesn't do that to get recruits...   I like it but it would never happen.
  19. Tommy 2-4 in Maui games Crean, please just go.  Please end the misery for both sides.  You're a terrible coach at this level and IU deserves better. 
  20. Do NOT leave that coach in Hawaii!  Well there might be a solid middle school team on Molokai that could use him.
  21. Wait, you're going to tell people they're "very stupid" to make a big deal about this and then play the victim? Not good form man.
  22. Oh boy, that was embarrassing.  If Seth Greenburg and Jay Will discussing the lack of heart and intelligence by IU on defense wasn't enough yesterday we have a story on Troy's mom today.  You have to feel for Troy in this situation as well. 
  23.   His first recruiting class?  Imagine what he could do with this team.  I would venture to guess we wouldn't get beat on most possessions.
  24. His team responded well.
