  1. saying they only know of 1 rival and that's Louisville. Willis said he didn't know who bob knight was, and asked if it was the guy who threw the chair.
  2. Haha I don't really care what a bunch of one and done players from UK think. They just use the program to get to the NBA. It absolutely is a rivalry, regardless of what they think. And lol at that Derek Willis comment about bob knight. He absolutely knows who he is because he went on a recruiting visit here. Just trying to say anything he can to downplay the IU-UK matchup
  3. made the same mistake. I've honestly never seen a more biased, un-intelligent fan base in my entire life. The stupidity over there knows no bounds. I think I saw maybe 3 posts that talked actual match ups and the rest were "durrr IU sucks, UK already champions, blah blah". It was hilarious and I'm glad our fans aren't that handicapped when it comes to our own team and discussion

    (2016) C Thon Maker

    At this point, and I think I've stated this before but, I'd rather him go elsewhere. Just seems like a headache with his "handler" and a player that will use the school he picks as a tryout for the NBA. I really don't want those type of players at IU.
  5. Awesome game from RoJo tonight, loved seeing him out there. I still think he is our man at PG next year. 6 assists and no turnovers is impressive after a month off

    Invert Them

    to me it's Murray, he can absolutely go off and we don't really have anyone that can guard him. Ulis and yogi are a wash, so we will really need someone to step up if Murray starts draining 3s

    TOM CREAN FIRED

    They don't, however, past failures can be a pretty solid indicator of what the future holds. We can go on a run, but everything about Crean's teams prior to this year tell us it's unlikely to happen. I think everyone is just preparing for the worst because it is what we are used too now, and until we can consistently go deep in the tourney it will be this way. you can't blame really blame fans for that.

    Btown Banners - Deceptive Site?

    It says this is a potential phishing site for me. If you're using mobile/iPhone, I found that going into settings/safari/turning off Fradulent Website Warning works. I've never had another site do this so I find it to be a useless feature

    Selection Sunday on CBS 5:30 ET (+ Chat)

    Funny thing I noticed about our team when they found out the bracket..Rojo got a smug look on his face and said "5 seed?" These guys feel disrespected imo.
  12. To expand on the Iowa State point even further (because it reallllly irks me), 6 of their 10 wins in conference were against the bottom 3 teams, who went a combined 10-44 in conference. The selection committee is a complete joke.
  13. Absolutely. When Iowa state gets a 4 seed over IU, I just have to laugh. The 6th best team in the Big 12 got a better seed then us at 10-8 in their conference and 21-11 overall. Let that sink in

    Selection Sunday on CBS 5:30 ET (+ Chat)

    Yeah I'm sorry, but the realistic side of me says we don't make the sweet 16. I hope I'm wrong

    Selection Sunday on CBS 5:30 ET (+ Chat)

    I'm so pissed off. This is the biggest joke of a bracket I've ever seen.

    College Bball Thread

    games are defined by winning or losing, whether that is by a free throw, 3 at the buzzer, whatever. A loss is a loss. There are no resets in the tourney, and you can't say, "well we almost got them! One more free throw or a missed 3 from them and we win!" Resumes are defined by these types of games every year. You either win or you lose, there is no in-between

    Blackmon Transferring?

    he definitely took that from here lol the timing is too perfect
  19. I think IU and Maryland at their best are both better than Purdue at their best, but that's just my opinion

    Blackmon Transferring?

    The info is appreciated. We'll see how it all plays out, but I really hope he stays and comes back hungrier than ever.
  21. we can play a BIG team in the 2nd round if we didn't play them twice during the conference season
  22. Elite 8. Anything less is a disappointment and just par for the course over the years.
  23. Not sure if this was discussed in this thread and sorry if I missed it, but chatman absolutely traveled before he shot the ball

    TOM CREAN FIRED

    The trend in March is just so alarming. I'm just baffled at it. We lose our first game in the tourney and I'm right back on this train.
  25. Yup, I hate the BTT but this just killed a ton of my optimism for the real one
