    What if....

    You cannot move on from a coach after he a National Championship. That would make Fred Glass resign as well.

    For Miles Bridges. 2016 SF

    (2016) C Thon Maker

    If we land him and TB, we might need to find space for a sixth banner, not trying to get my hopes up or anything. I also could see us going into a 10 man rotation.

    (2015) C Thomas Bryant to IU

    Does Thomas' teammate Miles Bridges have any interest in coming to IU? Be nice if we turned Huntington Prep into our pipeline.

    (2015) C Thomas Bryant to IU

    Last in the SEC with only 3 wins. 9 total, lost to kentsucky by 49. Don't see much promise with that program. I'm just looking through my eyes, he might see differently.

    2015 Transfers and Early Entries

    Doesn't want to lose first round again to UAB. I like that team as a whole.

    I want Tom Crean to stay

    I agree, this has been a program that was a dump before Crean got here. His first season he won 6 games, and has only improved. He shouldn't be fired after one season not making the tournament. Look at John Beilein, they didn't make the NIT, should he be fired?

    (2015) C Thomas Bryant to IU

    I was looking for a stat that showed what teams average in the paint against us. Couldn't find one though, Oladipo improved greatly defensively and I think RoJo can too, if JBJ wants to he could as well, just don't think he'll really spend the offseason on defense. He would prefer shooting half putters just in case he gets the ball with a second left in the game.

    Indiana Improving Year by Year?

    He took a team that would win 7 games a year to a 1 seed in future years, and made the tournament another year. You have to give him props but at Indiana we want and deserve better than the Sweet Sixteen

    If you could Swap Teams

    The Spartans. I have high praise for Tom Izzo and his roster's year in year out. He can recruit, DEVELOP, and is a great all around coach. It was tough for me deciding between The Badgers or MSU but I couldn't watch every slow, un athletic, style of play the Badgers put on display.

    (2015) C Thomas Bryant to IU

    MSU has enough size. Matt Costello is 6-9 245, Hanner is 6-9 225. Similar but not the same. Izzo's roster contains many forwards who play as big men, Draymond Green, Brandon Dawson, even Adreian Payne a little, but they all can fight with the big boys and be a bruiser when they need to. Izzo is a great defensive coach and even defended Tony Bennet's Cavaliers better than the best defensive team in the country. Hanner is just smaller in every category than the other centers of the Big Ten. Look at Brandon Dawson today in the game, in the final minutes he and his team would grab rebounds with effort, with force, with desire. That is something that this team lacked, a will. I would like our team to be like a Duke(obviously, being realistic, not at that caliber) but have a tall decent big man( Jahlil Okafor) but also have a good forward who can rebound(Justise Winslow). The problem with our defense is defending in the paint. Sure, our wings aren't the best defenders, but if they play defense, but get beat, a shot blocker should be there to help create havoc for the dribbler. Our Guards need to take a leap defensively and Thomas Bryant needs to get his ass to Bloomington and start improving this team.

    Hoosier Transfers and Recruiting Targets

    A friend of mine is a rabid Maryland fan, he kept talking about how Stone was going to MD and I had no answer because I thought no way. He proved me wrong, let's just hope I can hit him back with some TB

    (2016) C Thon Maker

    Gosh, Everytime I read any of these threads, I think of Trey Lyles, also every time I watch a pUKe game. Man, I wish he was in te candy stripes.

    Hoetzel to transfer

    Damn. I didn't care about Stan but I liked Max. He had potential. He coulda been gooood. Why is it that 2 players who play leave but 2 who don't, refuse to leave.

    (2016) C Thon Maker

    I think we have a good chance of Bryant, but when I look at Thon's crystal ball, I remember Kentucky is recruiting him. Then I become depressed within myself.

    2015 #IUBB Offseason Thread

    I really hope DD doesn't get Creaned or decide to transfer. He was one of the only players on last years team that I really liked. He has a solid game and could be a solid 3-4 for the next few years. Plus, I'd like to see him return wearing th Cream and Crimson. I could see a big reception in the future.

    Hoosier Transfers and Recruiting Targets

    Wow, so he'll have 2 years of eligibility now there? There's a reason why I should've picked Georgia State over Baylor.

    Hoosier Transfers and Recruiting Targets

    Where's Jeremy Hollowell now?
  22. I do think that they'll schedule a prime time game for this. The WSU fans think that this will be a breeze and the Kansas one will be fun. Let's give Em a fight and show them that we have the desire to win and play defense.
  23. I would have rather drawn any of the six seeds but oh well. Glad we made it!!!!

    Are we good enough to dance?

    I think unless we play a team in the tourney that has some size, we could pull off a first round upset This all assuming we make the tourney. (Not assuming, hoping)
