Agreed, also Bardo was much better than usual, IMO. About Gunn he said "he's growing up right before our eyes" and he's right. A couple weeks ago he looked absokutely terrible.But IU doesn't win tonight without Gunn. Any B1G road win is a big deal, so I am very pleased.

McDaniel forced up a ton of shots against Cupps. He tried to play hero ball because Cupps didn’t look to McDaniel like he belonged on him. And McDaniel went 3-14 from the floor.
Cupps did his job and then some tonight. That kid has an uncanny knack for being on the winning team an inordinate amount of the time.
One more thing about Cupps; he is going to be incredibly frustrating to our opponents. Other teams’ guards are routinely going to force stuff like McDaniel did because they will wrongly assume they should dominate the kid, but Gabe Cupps has a next-level basketball brain. He just doesn’t turn it over much and never will, he’s our best screener of our guards, he makes excellent post entry passes, and he never, NEVER goes under a ball screen.
Little, unnoticed things that again tonight led to Gabe Cupps sitting in the winner’s locker room.

I root for big ten teams to do well in pre conference so we have a chance at good wins but come tournament time I hope they all perform similar to Purdue last year.

He got beat a couple times, but that will happen. McDaniel threw up a bunch of bad shots tonight and that was due to the combined efforts of Cupps and Galloway. I think you are selling him quite a bit short on his performance tonight on the defensive end.

Which is awesome. Wonder if Oregon fans are mad that Altman couldn't get this production out of him

hoosierbgh got a reaction from ALASKA HOOSIER in 2024 PG Daquan Davis to Florida State
The fact that Woody hasn't immediately made a snap decision on this kid, could possibly mean he's a coach doing his due diligence and carefully considering offers instead of a fan overreacting into knee jerk offers. You know, the same kind of desperate, knee jerk offers that many of us fans complained about previous coaches handing out?
Or
As has been suggested by at least one source, IU is just slow rolling this in public to avoid the appearance of tampering.

Somewhat, but not really. Schertz is younger, ascending rapidly and Depaul feels like an infinitely more abysmal situation than IUFB which is a last (?) stop, lotto ticket type job for Cig. If it doesn’t work out for him, he rides off into the sunset with generational wealth. If he succeeds here, he gets all of that plus the admiration of a gigantic fanbase and maybe even a shot at a “big” job if he wants it. Schertz would very likely derail his rapid ascension at a program going nowhere fast.

Queen has not said jack. Any “attention whoring” has been by speculators, not by the recruit.

Channeling my inner @Ngw7183, the state of Texas has more Dairy Queen's (by a lot) than any other state in the Union. Houston is also Red and White. Houston is in Texas and also recruiting Queen.

hoosierbgh reacted to Hovadipo in Coach Curt Cignetti to INDIANA
Q. ON WHY HE DECIDED NOT TO COACH JMU IN THEIR BOWL GAME…
CURT CIGNETTI: I think it was a natural process, to be honest with you. I think the athletic director at JMU, his comfort level when this happened…and we had a great relationship and we still do and we're great friends…was that I would coach the bowl game. But the way this process really works is when you take a new job you've left your old job, and you have to devote 100 percent of your time to your new job because there's a million things to do. For me and my staff to show up two days before the ballgame wouldn't make any sense. They’ve had kids go into transfer portal there…good players…really good players…and they're in the transfer portal. So it's open season. I think as time went on, the leadership at JMU, you realize what's the sense of…there’s no sense in this. And from my standpoint, while I have a strong emotional attachment to those guys, I think to do them right, they need to be coached by the existing members there. They're gonna hire a new head coach soon that will bring a staff in that will watch what's going on. They'll hire some people on a temporary basis that have coached collegiately, and that gives them the best chance to be successful.
Translated: we're about to take some JMU kids from the transfer portal and coaching their old team while having them getting ready to hit the weight room for my new team would be incredibly awkward.

What did anyone do to deserve this? If Bardo is the better half of a duo, we have serious issues.

Davis may ease the needle of DQ ever-so-slightly our direction.

hoosierbgh reacted to cthomas in Coach Curt Cignetti to INDIANA
Look, I'm obviously a gullible idiot, but this hire feels different. 100% different from CTA. This guy is not screwing around. If everything starts at the top, then I'm glad he's that guy. I like how he is building his staff and team. After the last couple of years, we really need a reset.

Nice tribute from Biancardi on Rick Majerus.

hoosierbgh reacted to Hoosierfan2017 in College Football Thread
You’ve got a 12-1 SEC champion with the 5th best strength of schedule who just dethroned the undefeated 2x defending champ versus the undefeated ACC champion with the 55th best strength of schedule and a third-string quarterback. One team being 13-0 doesn’t automatically mean they’re better than the 12-1 team. It stinks for FSU, but I don’t think an argument can be made that they’re one of the four best teams in the country.

Game was nutty. Think the Colts hired themselves a hell of a coach.
