If I remember correctly, they cut away from the game toward the end because IU was killing Maryland. That Maryland team had some great players. By the end of the year, no one was going to beat that IU team. I loved the 75/76 teams, but I think the 81 team is the best I have ever seen. IT at the point was special.

Inconsistency U - 76 Turtles All the Way Down - 73

I'm out of that time but I wouldn't call it special. More like hunker down in your foxhole.

ND is the only team I hate worse than Purdue. I only wish OSU had kept their foot on the gas and buried them.

I'm not bad at football but I suck at basketball. I think wins when we lose losses when we win. So whatever I do here, do the opposite. Whatever version of IU - 79 Smart guys - 68.

I get it. We are in completely different generations and we have experienced very different periods of IU basketball. You are entitled to your viewpoint and from your perspective it's completely valid. I think we all want to see a better version of IU basketball than we have seen in a really long time. I just think it is important to recognize that in this fan base different people have seen wildly different results from this program over the years. Harry Gonso and Quinn Buckner were heroes when I was younger and deeply invested in IU athletics. It was awesome hearing the IU band play "The Mighty Quinn" before or during IU games. For some of us old guys those were great times, and no matter what is going on now, what they accomplished will always be important. End of the day, we all want what is best for IU basketball.

I am on board for a change in the entire coaching staff. We can and will do better. This is not the administration who has made the last few coaching decisions. See Coach Cignetti. However, I am not going to use demeaning or derogatory names in reference to our coaches. Whatever we think about CMW's coaching abilities, he is still a hall of fame player for IU. I understand that it's two different conversations. Hopefully when the change is made we can once again recognize what a great player he was for this university.

The team formerly known as IU - 65 The osu - 85

I forgot the game was on since I don't have Pea-cock. Picked up my phone and saw the score and was glad I forgot. We are at the point in basketball that the football team was. Can't go forward with this coach or staff. A complete rebuild is in order and CCC has proven it can be done. Now it's up to AD Dolson and President Whitten to make it happen. And I think they will.

It is incredible the transformation in perception and expectation for IU football that has happened in just one season. The right support and staff can lead to remarkable results. I believe the best is yet to come.

The uninterested - 72 Annoying folks to the west - 85

I believe the administration, President and AD, will make the right call after the season is over. President Whitten is the first President in a long time who seems to get what IU basketball and football mean to the university. They got the football hire right and I think they are working on the next basketball hire already. Nothing is going to change until this season is over. I'm just checking scores at this point, no really watching games. In a couple of months the rebuild will begin.

Hooooosiers - 87 Eyeowa - 83

How many playoff games have been decided by more points than our loss?

How this has this has played out is not a bad look for IU at all. At the very it should show that something is happening here.
