I'm not really sure why. I just never really cared for him as a coach.

I think I'm in the minority here, I don't really want Marshall or Donovan.

I agree, though he is a little old for my liking. I would love to get somebody who is going to be here 25+ years. I know, wishful thinking!

1. Stevens--obviously! 2. Holtmann--would be a solid hire! 3. Archie Miller--a very close 2nd to Holtmann.

One can dream!

Man, I hate seeing Indiana boys Kick ass when they play against us! Almost like they have something to prove!

If there was ever a coach I wanted to see creaned , it would be CREAN!

I haven't like his game since he was in high school! I'm not a huge JBJ fan, never have been.

Good thing Blackmon can hit threes when it doesn't matter!

Oh, and another thing. With RMK, if we would've had a loss like we did to Nebraska, you better be wagering your house on the next game we played, because we were gonna kick whose ever ass was next on the schedule! At least it seemed that way to me. Hell,I'm old and have slept since then!

I'm almost 37 years old. I was 7 when we last one a national championship. I remember watching that game with my dad and thinking it was all over until Keith Smart hit "The Shot"! I have been a die hard fan ever since. Anybody who is my age or older was spoiled watching RMK teach this sport to young men playing for Indiana! He demanded and got ,for the most part, everything and then some out of all his players. His teams made the game look easy. Basic, fundamental basketball. Knowing angles, moving without the ball, setting solid screens, playing defense with your feet, and that the ball moves faster when you pass it and aren't dribbling it. Unfortunately, this is a huge thing that has been missing from IU basketball for many years now. I know the times have changed, but the game hasn't. Crean seems to be trying to reinvent the wheel and that kills me. I think we all knew that Mike Davis' time was going to be limited at the helm and I've had the same feeling towards Crean now for a couple of years. I just want someone to lead this team with basic fundamental basketball. Don't try to out think everybody else, just get your guys to do the basics better than all the other teams that you play.

Davis playing out of his mind! CTC better sit him!

I wondered how long it would take for someone to contend our "lob over the top" in bounds play?

I think winning at Wisky and at Purdue would be bigger than both those wins. I think we are arguing semantics, but I digress.

And before I get slammed with the good years, I acknowledge those, but it seems like for every one good/great year we have, we have 2/3 so-so/bad years.

Figuring it today is one thing, we have a BRUTAL B1G schedule to go through yet. So far it hasn't started like any of us thought it would. Do you see us having more Kansas, UNC wins in the B1G, or more WTF losses like Nebraska or IPFW? I feel we could see more of the latter. I'm just tired of settling with middle of the road, just good enough basketball with Crean here.

If we miss the tourney, he should be fired. If we barely get in and get bounced first game, he should be fired, but I don't think he will be.

Yes, I do. I think we are a bubble team, unless something happens like last year!

I think we are closer to the team that lost to IPFW and Nebraska, then we are to the one that beat Kansas. Not in the middle. The problem is that ceiling and floor are miles apart instead of feet.

Assembly Hall is no longer a safe haven for this team! We are FUCT!

Our defense is going to make us all say bad words all season long!

Blackmon was open on the last one and he missed it.

Good thing we are in Assembly!

It sounds like I'm listening to Coach Cowher call this game.

That dreaded and unbeatable 2-3 zone that we struggle with!
