I see zero chance of staff shake up. Well paid staff, decently paid roster. We gotta be better, starting with our scouts.

I feel bad for recruits when this happens. I wish there was an easy way to avoid these scenarios. The initial responses to this tweet from our fans were clever and funny, but the old heads addressing recruits over this is not the best look.

What a great addition. Impossible not ecstatic about all things IUFB. Wow

Talented. Probably means we are losing Cooper. Which stinks but we doing work.

Full agree on the Mak stuff. I don’t understand it. My only guess is it’s a family member of a bench player not get run. As far as the fan bit? I think we are all fans posting in here. Moren set a high standard and built a solid fanbase. All the credit to her. When you build that with winning, fans get an expectation. If they continue to lose like this the fanbase will disappear again like it was pre-Moren. Im a little shocked we are as bad as we are. The youth argument is valid, but the staff built the roster with plenty of transfers. They didn’t get the right ones or ones good enough clearly. So this year becomes a write off. I haven’t lost faith in Moren, just disappointed in not being competitive and believe it’s more than age. We need more talent too. Not gonna be an easy flip back to relevancy.

Brutal and kinda embarrassing season. Feel bad for Shay, and most of the rest of the team. They are competing. Just aren’t good enough. Miss the stretch of the teams we’ve had in the past. They were very efficient and tough. Bummer.

They probably should but they are Iowa and we are Indiana. The supposed minimum expectation is to make the Tournament. Our team is treading that line very dangerously and not seen as a threat to do anything this year. That’s not the type of teams Indiana should be fielding on a year to year basis. Some say we have top 10 nil. I think it’s 15-25. Either way, with those resources we should be better than Iowa. Better than Nebraska. And better than what we are. Expectations are slipping and that is fine, I guess, because it hasn’t helped us either.

Who projects at C next year? Losing a key, key piece there.

Coaching and Money combined is the common sense formula. It’s a A x B= wins formula. The better the coach and scout the less the money might be needed. The worse the coach the more money needed. Plus roster building is key! Our currently team isn’t too far off. Switch out 2 guys for 2 better guys would be enough, I think. Money solves that. Staff didn’t spend well and didn’t have enough to get the pieces needed. really unfortunate.

Game turned on that dumb play. Told me sons we were gonna lose after that play.? They said, but the score……. I said, Just watch. Team completely lost its focus.

Outside of a few great and fun players I haven’t enjoyed the basketball experience since Zeller has been gone. TJD was must watch TV his final 2 years. Ware had some moments. Wilkerson has some moments. But the overall experience is more dread and anxiety than enjoyment. We haven’t had a great team or even a really good team in 12-13 years. Woodson had to go. I like DeVries just fine but the offseason approach and results screams mid to me. He can’t land top recruits. Hes a worker and I respect that but he isn’t gonna catapult us to the top. If we miss the tourney again, the job is even harder in the offseason. Maybe we should have barked up the JMU coaching tree again? People will respond with, he needs to rebuild, we have no results, no culture, yarda, yarda yada. The response is Michigan or even more so BYU. Get the coach, get the money, go to work. Counter, Football has officially taken over and I have absolutely loved the past 2 seasons. Not convinced the money is there to buy 2 top 10 teams or if DeVries is good enough to spend that money adequately and get a return.

BC Getting killed now. Mikel Brown questionably done for year. Kansas is underperforming and losing again under Self. Wish we could become the Flagship Adidas basketball school but Louisville has lapped us and Kansas won’t relinquish their reins even with whoever their new coach is. And Self will retire soon if things keep going like they are going.

So many upcoming L’s. Needed this one badly. I trusted homecourt too much as I tend to do. The pieces we are bringing in next year aren’t even close to the level we need to jump up a level. Portal will be critical. Same was said for this season. Such a disappointing start to the DeVries era.

Mathematically we aren’t close to eliminated. But this team was always a bubble team at best. It’s been obvious to a few. It’ll become obvious to others over the next 4-6 games. Why you build a bubble team in the first place is beyond me.

USC sneaks a 1 point OT win at Minnesota.

Seems they had a great time!

Don’t disagree but unless you have a retro-Montverde type roster, you should stand out. Even then you should stand out in ways. He has the projectables. Hes unselfish, it seems. As I said before potential is there. My initial statement was production is not. Teams know who their best players are. They get the ball more. They take more shots. They become the focal point by default. All the best players have high production at that level. He’s had some games with production but not consistency. Anyway, as a likely future Hoosier, be great Kid.

Best game Mendoza has played. He was incredible. So was Sarratt. Absolutely amazing stuff tonight.

Oh. My. Gosh! Incredible.

We can’t get pressure on Moore no matter how many we send. That’s concerning. Hopefully we can find a matchup mismatch or something.

Hours to go before this epic game. Can’t wait. Last nights game was a masterpiece. I hope ours is a bit more one sided. Respect Oregon. Tons of talent and speed. They worry me less than OSU. Feeling pretty good all things considered. Let’s go Hoosiers!
