    I think the surprise is they're squeaking out 2 pt wins against teams that they're 5 times more talented than at every position. That would be my opinion as well.

    Michigan Vs Indiana Post Game Thread

    Didn't like the push off on Albrecht being called a block on Yogi either. Ended up being 2 pts for them.

    Michigan Vs Indiana Post Game Thread

    Win the games you're supposed to win and move on. Could've been a more impressive showing but it still counts. I've seen this mentioned a few times after games, but last year's team probably doesn't win this game.

    Should attack that press every time like that!

    Thought he had the lane on that last drive but then it goes off his knee. I swear the kid is snake bitten right now

    Definitely seemed the UM player slid under Yogi after he was already in the air. Block to me

    Could Jon Horford be any more scared to shoot a wide open layup?

    Michigan Pick'ems?

    Showing my age that I actually sung what you wrote.
  9. I almost hate weighing in on these topics, but I'll bite on this one. For me, it was the mid to late 90s. I remember the Pepperdine and Colorado losses and just shaking my head. But I firmly believe IU is a sleeping giant right now. The fan base and resources will always keep it close, but that one or two pieces need to be in place to fully wake it.

    Purdue Post Game Thread

    I thought Holt played his a** off.  I could see him fighting all night for position.  He'll be fun to watch as an upperclassman.  Zeisloft.  Still like his fire.  Wasn't a difference-maker in last night's game but loved seeing how pissed off he was at that one call.  Just show me some fire once in a while.  Yogi - great game.  Glad he showed up.

    #23 IU defeats #13 Maryland 89-70 post game thread

    I missed the first half and loved seeing Hartman light it up like that. Also nice to see a team have to adjust to us for once and not us to them.

    Rick Bozich On Crean and Co.

    Relax mates. Not wanting to get into a pissing match over it. Just stating my opinion on the "jab". BGleas had a valid point on it being apples and oranges but I still hold firm on my opinion.

    Rick Bozich On Crean and Co.

    I'm ok with his jab at Stevens. I'm a Stevens fan, but he was brought in to win. Record doesn't lie. He and Crean were brought in to resurrect storied programs. He's eligible for the same criticisms as Crean.

    Saw Burton with 3 rebounds. One I remember being big. Play the kid as a sub to Holt. Good job Hartman but hit that layup. RoJo was solid. Good game Troy.

    IUBB vs. Penn State Game Thread

    I'll get reamed for this but I like Burton for the same reason I like Hartman. He hustles and makes things happen

    I've actually been waiting for Burton to make an appearance. He always seems to be in the right place when he's in

    Hopefully Georgetown shot their wad with this comeback and we close this out.

    Is hearing Calhoun call this game driving anyone else crazy?

    Is there anywhere you can go...

    Try living in southern Indiana. I've never seen so many smart people lose all sense of intelligence once they start talking about UK basketball.
  25. Just watched the game on DVR. Yogi had a killer 2nd half and Troy did a great job not forcing. Love Hartman. Z had a questionable play at the :50 mark near the end of the game where he tried to steal the ball, but man I love the kid's grit. He wasn't going to back down. We didn't have tat last year
