JBJ is good but he's a LONG way from great!

I'm on the tired but I DVRed it...kinda like you. I'll probably just delete it when I get home! Lol

Glad to hear that about the Terre Haute schools. I've actually thought of taking my son back there to let him see kinda what it was like way back when. Lol I live in Hamilton Ohio now and I've went to a few of their games when he played and a few just to go along with him...but it's just not the same. I will say that the times I've went they had a better crowd than that though. They pretty much fill the gym on a Fri/Sat night. Seeing that crowd in the video just kinda made me sad/disgusted.

Looks and sounds like a good get. Little bit off topic but I've a question for those of you who still live in Indiana. Is this about the normal turnout for a high school bball event in Indiana now? I went to Terre Haute South in the early eighties and moved away from the state in the late eighties. Maybe nostalgia is overwhelming my memory but we seemed to always have a pretty full gym anytime the boys basketball team played. This gym doesn't look much more than 30-40% full.

Smartass! Lol

I've never really been on his bandwagon...and I've never really wanted to set his wagon on fire. I do want a consistent winner that does it the right way. The first 2-3 years of his tenure he gets a pass because of the mess he inherited. The next two years with Zeller and Vic I think he did well but not fantastic. It's all great to be ranked #1 but there are no trophies given for rankings only for winning tournaments. The second year of that era we flamed out a lot earlier than we should have in my opinion. Last year was not good. This year is still happening so it cannot really be judged yet. I will say that I have been encouraged by some of what I've seen this year. People can grow, change, and learn. I'm hoping Crean is doing that some this year. I've wondered if maybe Crean didn't get caught up a little in people saying that if he was going to succeed he had to do it by recruiting a certain type of player and by playing a certain type of way. Maybe he got away from his convictions a little. To be honest, I'm not sure this 4-out 1-in will work but if it's what he believes in...then he has to go with it! Defensively I think it leaves a team vulnerable but it can definitely be entertaining on the offensive end. The is more than one way to skin a cat though and if this is his method of skinning...and it works...bring it on!I wanna win and do it the right way!

Agree on all points. I thought Yogi did a really good job of being in touch with the game and making adjustments as the game went on. He (and the whole team/coaching staff for that matter) seemed to do a good job of probing what Nebraska was doing and making adjustments to counteract them. As a whole it was one of the most intelligent and patient games I've seen them play in a while and very fun to watch. The last fifteen minutes or so of the game were awesome!

I agree. It's done when it's done. Nothing changing so move on.

I remember thinking Chaney was crazy as hell! Lol

That would've been hilarious and probably would've been on Sportscenter for like a hundred years!

Jenay did speak with him in the first half when he came over for a timeout and Holt made a motion like something had made him uncomfortable but I couldn't tell for sure what.

I really suck at lip reading then...maybe he told him to "shut the f##k up" and I missed a word?

I agree totally! Loved it! Sometimes you gotta say I'm living and dying with my guy cause...HE'S MY DAMN GUY! I'm standing up for him and we'll sort out the details later.

He was huge early. I really like the way he and JBJ play with a little poker face. Don't get to high, don't get to low! Bring your best shot it doesn't matter. We're gonna be here all night long!

Sometimes a "we are not going to put up with being mugged!"rep ain't a bad thing! I'd rather have to tone him down a bit than try and rev him up!

Played like a man!!! Helluva game!

As long as he's under control and realizes that if he gets doubled he needs to give it up to the open man I really don't have a problem with it. Gotta have discretion and wisdom.

Gonna open up a can of whoop ass!

It was really nice seeing JJ out there still putting his all in tonight. Didn't mail it in. Speaks to his character!

Dammit Crean shows this kinda fire we might wanna keep him! Lol

Hope so

Ain't over yet! Don't jinx

Yogi! Oh yeah!

I'm impressed as hell with Hanner and this team in second half

Thought the foul was a little dirty myself.
