March Madness ball in February.

I think this may be our best ball of the year besides our 28-0 run.

We are playing some really good ball.

With this very very very weak NBA draft class, OG very well could be a first round pick.....

Lottery Pick. Wow.... OGGGG

What football player is on the IU staff again? I remember Crean saying something about it

I wouldn't mind if Troy entered the draft. OG is already better than him.

Why is Williams playing...

10 minutes till, I'll go ahead and say it. I think we pull a Penn State performance today.

Excited to see what Yogi, Troy, and Thomas are going to do today.

key to the game :make threes. 

Can we flashback to when we won at MSU with Zeller and Oladipo their final year? Good times.

We always play them for some reason right?

Howard on the Celtics would be funny to watch. Don't know what you'll get from Howard with all the injuries he gets these days. I expect many many trades on Thursday before the 3PM deadline.

Can't believe the championship game is on TBS..

Nothing better than Sunday 1PM games on CBS. Unless of course, we lose, then i could think of a few things that are better.     Last time we played on a Sunday afternoon, look what happened (Ohio State). 

Not a big Tom Crean fan. If he got us to the final four this year, I'd be happy to have him back for another year. No extension though..

Every time I predict use to lose we win, so maybe I should keep it up

Yes, but this is Indiana... We have been struggling to get back into a national powerhouse team for years under Crean.

In the predictions thread I had us blowing them out a couple weeks. Posted this morning that I'm feeling an L. Glad we got the W. No reason we can't compete in MSU. That's all I ask.

Great points , I agree. When teams slow us down, that's when Troy loves to drive it into the lane with 3 guys in his way haha. Turn our defense into offense and rebounding will be crucial come dance time.

Some positive changes have been made even with losing James for the season. Pretty impressive job from our boys and coaching staff for not falling flat on our faces. We have MSU and a few more tough games. It's important that we hold our ground vs Nebraska and Illinois. We love to play down to others levels, can't let that happen if we want a good seed in the dance. Get a win vs MSU on the road and at home vs either Purdue and Maryland, I think we could get up to a 5 seed. I don't want to think about the big ten tourney, that never goes our way.

Our offense seems to take a turn for the worst when we're on the road, which is expected. But when we're in the hall, I don't think it's wise to let our boys get an inch of Space. Interesting coaching from Fran tonight. I must say, I'm impressed by Tommy Boy calling good times out. Took him 7 years to figure it out... I've never seen Iowa this year. They have very impressive wins that have gotten them consideration of a early projection 1 seed. I thought I our boys wouldn't be able to win tonight but I'm glad I was wrong. I wasn't very impressed with Iowa. Now I'm sure it was an off night, but jeez. 0 points from the bench and shooting fifty something from the line? I'm sure practice will be fun for them tomorrow afternoon. We stayed strong, hit some shots, moved the ball. Good Troy was here in the second half at times. Nicky , Max, Collin, OG, Morgan , and Niego all stepped it up with Yogi and Byrant having off nights.

If they were allowed to serve beer at the games, boy oh boy would that place be rocking.

Anyone figure out why Fran stuck with the zone in the first half?... Why would you do that? Just trying to get some insight from other people. We were hot and we're moving the ball, yet they wanted us to keep doing it? Doesn't make sense to me.
