That's too sophisticated for my drinking fundamentals.

I really hope this isn't a trap coming coming off of a big win. Historically this is a game where we lay an egg. Let's break the cycle and pound the nits!

Sometimes the haze and glitter can do a number on your eyes...

Is he going to stick with Sunday's starting lineup? Mgbako and Ballo on the bench? Do you think Mgbako learned anything from Sunday's pine riding? Can we sustain the level of play from Sunday? This and much more on the next exciting episode of IU basketball '24-'25.

If he has friends named Paulie and Sil, I would keep looking.

The Harper well is dry now. Except I wasn't sure how he attracted Bailey.

Bailey is so impressive! We need to see both of them gone after the season. I don't think Rutger will have anything left.

70-65 Stripes!!!! Our win streak continues...

I think Mgbako would rather play for Terhune.

How we started this mess of a season: Rice, Carlyle, Mgbako, Reneau, Ballo How we need to finish this season: Rice, Gallo, Leal, Goode, Reneau

An "undisclosed" Butler player and his family had a lake cottage across the street from us. Talking on day, He and his dad told us that Crean was heavily recruiting him. They said that when he told Crean he was attending Butler, Crean called him every name in the book. Dad said that his son basically had to hold the phone away from him and just hang up.

I know that I couldn't stand Richard Pitino at Minnesota....but I am so intrigued by him as a potential candidate? I feel given the right situation and resources, he could be just as effective as a Rick, Sr. or Donovan. I keep telling myself I know we can do better. Top 3 or 4 if we miss on #1 and #2?

Is that a Waffle House in the background????

Earns respect, doesn't just demand it. Develops team Captains as our floor leaders. With energy, coaches and adjusts on the sidelines. Actually prepares the team for the next game up (tactician). Manages recruiting, portal, and NIL to establish roles and needs of the program. Uses resources for a total program approach to IU basketball (i.e. Assistants, Dir. of Operations, etc.) Doesn't accept losing in any capacity. Has a plan to achieve goals, not just verbalize goals. Establish a new era of IU traditions and history.

The real question is "Can we get to 2000 pages before an official announcement is made?"

Question: Would they really announce a coaching change before the end of the season? Theoretically, if it is Brad and the media is beating his door down, he (nor anyone else) is publicly accepting the IU position with someone still in that post. Now, the minute after the season has ended...the gloves are off.

PU - 80 IU - 70 UGH...

I couldn't imagine him acting like this in AH. Can we very gently walk this potential candidate to the door and close it? This is glaring IMO.

I was just thinking the same thing.

Sorry..."A-list" or "successful" basketball coaches. Thanks

Honest question (and there may be but slipped my mind): Name a (or multiple) former IU players that would be considered "A-list" or "successful"? The former IU player coach project should be buried at this point.

70-68 Stripes! WTH!

The Zone??? It didn't look like anyone had to really labor on defense to prevent 3pt off of screens. It slowed penetration and really kept the guards from being a threat. Our hands and deflections were more active as well. Crean would've been pleased! Keep bringing the zone if it works.
