Arizona so freaking good. Doesn’t feel right rooting for Kansas but I want Arizona to take an L sooner or later.

Think if we could at some point stack 2 or 3 of these guys together at the same time. TJD on this team. Or whatever. We always seem to be a guy or 2 short from being really good.

Rusty looking. Mostly unenthusiastic. Dorn and Tuck are killing me. Bailey too for that matter. Wilkerson is carrying us again. What’s new. When I look at his face, I think he’s got the flu too. Love Wilkerson. Tough and smooth.

It was a joke on my part. Part wishful thinking. I guess the Oregon team came to Bloomington early and the he and the team were spotted having a good time at the bars. Seems to just be that.

Minnesota Maryland in a “barn”burner.

In all likelihood we need 3 or 4 starters out of the portal. Dorn is the only starter level player to return. Maybe Sisley. Especially if shooting improves. He’s gotta get that FT to 70%. I like Miles but see him more as a role guy. Not sure if that’s how he sees himself. Prince Moody projects to play. Karvala maybe/likely. Manhertz. Idk. Harris, Ristic?? The rest? Redshirt guys, who knows what they will do. Hopefully we have some stock to get high level guys because Portal is going to be active. Will need a 1 and 5 for sure.

Mostly true but not entirely. For the record I just wanted DeVries to make the tournament, show some optimism, and have a building block season. 2 weeks ago, that didn’t appear to be the case and year 2 and the tenure gets more difficult. But now, we are on pace to achieve minimum expectations which should help his cause to build. BUT, saying message boards, X, Facebook have no real world effect just isn’t true. The vibes of the program are measured through attendance and online discourse. It’s one of the things the AD monitors. HOWEVER, 1 year is never gonna be a measuring stick to fire a new hire without something in the background. 2 years might be if results are terrible. So yeah, this is a venting session for sure and thankfully it seems we can quell it a little bit.

In real time I thought Blackwell pulled on his arm and dragged him forward. It was an awkward movement. This explains it well. Seeing all the Wisconsin fans crying on X while being so clearly wrong is enjoyable. lol

So he’ll be Indiana’s PG next year? lol.

I can’t begin to describe my emotions the last 30 minutes of that game. This game was critical. Thought for sure we pissed it away twice. My goodness. We needed it so bad. Home friendly calls in the final 2 possessions without question. My goodness.

Gonna need to win one we shouldn’t. Dropping home games left and right.

Devastating.

Damn
