Not that odd imo. He knows that engagement lines his pockets and who, in the conference that he mostly covers, engages like IU fans? He can play both sides and get infinite clicks. I mostly just pay him attention when he’s breaking down ball. His click baiting is pretty easy to identify.
Quoting this in the game thread. I don’t really buy into the idea I see online a lot that there can’t be a must-win game in January. Teams with this kind of dysfunction aren’t going to just suddenly turn it on late if they’re dropping games like this in January. All that to say I agree that it’s one they can’t afford to drop and there’s going to be a lot of those from here on out.
I think a close win tells us that they haven’t phoned it in at least. You take wins however you can get them after New Year’s.
It’s so much easier to swallow idiotic losses when the team is fun to watch though lol. I feel good about this group going forward.
Thought the foul on the rebound was a pretty bad call, but only saw the broadcast angle.
Scroll down on that page to the Blue Squad’s schedule. College of Dupage, Olivet Nazarene, Aurora University and others are on that schedule. That top one appears to be a B-team or maybe something else.
