    Amazing how a two-word post gets people so worked up. Some of you should go outside and enjoy the lovely winter we're having this spring.

    IUWBB vs USC - Friday, 03.07.25 @ Noon on BTN

    Need to avoid foul trouble and not waste possessions. Last time, the game turned when we royally screwed up the end of the third quarter.

    Never thought I'd say this, but I'd rather have the Hall Monitor Squad trying to police the Stevens posts than the endless Beard morality debate.

    So how did this get back on Beard? It was getting pretty ugly in here again this morning, about 50 pages ago, so I haven't looked at it since.

    Losing to USC by a fairly large amount would be preferable to how our last 3 BTT losses went. Not that I'm hoping for that, of course, but our exits from this event the past 3 years were painful.

    2025 B1G Women's Basketball Tournament

    Iowa and Michigan States' men's and women's teams will be playing each other at the same time tonight. I wonder how often that's ever happened.

    LOL at that ref trying to overrule a very obvious travel. Weak.

    Not sure I see us surviving another 14 minutes with all this foul trouble.

    Man, Meister just looks like a fish out of water.

    Have I mentioned replay review is ruining the game? 4:45 left between Minnesota/Wisconsin and the game has been stopped to review a shot that clearly beat the shot clock. Anything to get some more commercials in, I guess.

    17 years later and BTN is still showing the ridiculous shot from Blake Hoffarber that beat us in 2008.

    Oregon. More partial crowd this time and hopefully different officials that would realize it's a basketball game and not a wrestling match.

    Galloway got eaten alive on that last possession. That's why I've been clamoring for better guards for years now.

    Oregon has gotten away with one foul after another, and their crowd has gotten rowdier with each one. They finally get called for one and the place suddenly turns into Mackey Arena.

    Don't know why more teams haven't tried pressing us this year. Our guards panic every time they see it and we tend to do exactly what the other team would want us to do.

    Ballo not going for that loose ball, and instead just trying to tap it to a teammate, leading to an and-1 the other way is a perfect stretch to describe the culture of this program right now.

    In a game like this, you have to get something out of that final sequence. Not surprised we didn't.

    So sick of those two. I hope we load up this spring and kick their ***** next year.

    He practically dares refs to call fouls on him and then can't believe it when they do. He fouled out on a moving screen when we played them and both he and Painter were incredulous. On replay, if his legs had been any farther apart he could have been performing squats.

    Probably the biggest reason why he should have been fired and told to clean out his office. Letting him have the microphone again is one of the dumbest things we could have possibly done. But we're IU and we like to do dumb things I guess.

    It reads a little too similar to last year when a guy came on here and said he had a close friend in Dusty May's immediate family, and that Dusty was Louisville bound.

    Does the athletic department really think we're falling for this smokescreen? Zero chance Groce is a candidate.

    0-8 against IU and just lost to us at home by 20 to end their season because they didn't make the Big Ten tournament in her fourth year...yeah, definitely some reasons to pull the trigger.

    Every now and then, I take a glance at how Archie's best season at Rhode Island is going. Yesterday they scored 56 points in the first half against UMass, an out of body experience for an Archie Miller team, and still managed to lose 91-88. They are now guaranteed to finish below .500 in the A-10.

    There's actually a scenario where we could win today and face Purdue again Wednesday. It's not likely to happen but it would be fun to do this a third time.
