Lovin' this--first half is in the books and a total root canal of the Wolves is underway!   Pull those fangs--Hoosiers!

Keep the pedal to the metal----if we could have another half like this the country would have to start believing in us.   I love that this is occurring on a national stage again!   IU ---hoopin' it up tonight!

All I can say is --WOW!   Love the 3's--Let it rain baby!  But --I love the defense most of all. OG changed the game when he came in----nothing inside the lane allowed without a fight!

This is a big game!   Let's go Max --Let's go Hoosiers!

Prepare the incisor extractors!

Assemble the Royal Knights of The Roundball. Let's head North to Ann Arbor!   Pack extra water---we do not want to stop and drink water anywhere near Flint.   Once we arrive Queen O has ordered we set up an anesthesiology and dental extraction clinic outside Chrysler Arena---we must de-fang every Wolverine we encounter prior to game time!   Medema will forward pics from the battlefront.   Viva La Francais!  Viva La IU!

Michigan=Saudi Arabia.  They are like a one trick pony----living off their oil/football revenues.   The money allows them to have nice facilities and compete in other sports and traditionally has been used to help them with recruiting.  Can you say Fab 5?

Game day---fire up Hoosiers!   Beat the Wolves!

IU 91 PSU 77

IU 77 UM 73

That would be OK with me. Solid recruiter. Sounds like he is bouncing around---was just at New Mexico too.  Maybe he could put in a call to Goodluck if they parted on good terms????

Happy to get the win. Ugly win. We looked tired.   I was disappointed we did not respond from a loss better than that...   TB and OG were bright spots today.   It's official---after seeing two games against them, Minny knows how to play defense against us.   Our defense was good in the first half---second half horrible.   Still---we could have folded when we got behind and we would have last year.  Instead, we toughened up and got the win!   Shake it off--tough game on the horizon against Michigan will require a lot better effort.

Clear and plug those gopher holes Crown Prince Crean!!!   Nice pic Medema---I can't tell whether Crown Prince Crean is trying to hypnotize the gopher--- or just distract him long enough to use the flamethrower on him!   Fire up IU/Francaislanders---it's almost game time!

Game Day!! Fire up Hoosiers!

Even a day later ----thank you Maryland for beating Iowa.   It's good to be first in the Big Ten again!

Well crud----the curse continues---14 straight losses at Wiscy.   Could have gone either way. Take it out on Minny next game.

No picnic tonight.....The traps malfunctioned and we fell in the barbecue pit.   Back to BTown ASAP!

TB---Send it in Big Fella!

Wisconsin--You can't handle the truth  ​Yogi!

Good start--let's keep taking the fight to them...

WOE TO THE BADGER:   Let's circle the wagons Let's set us some traps Let's catch us some Badgers As Prince Clean claps!   Let's take their fur Let's boil a few Let's fix a big kettle Of Beaten Badger Stew!   Hoo--Hoo--Hoo-Hoosiers!

Let's bring the energy tonight! Go Hoosiers!

Yes! Keep us updated lelgar.

Yikes---the Top Ten is not a safe place to be in college basketball this year!   I am happy any time Kansas loses.  I was rooting for the Dukies because they beat us.  I have faith in Coach K. I still think they will get it turned around before March.

Not sure if this is the appropriate thread but I liked Marni's tweets today about Crean's emphasis on academics.  She tweeted that Crean has a 100% graduation rate for players who complete their eligibility at IU. I know some will gripe about all the transfers but that's still a pretty awesome stat for the players who stay.  She also discussed how Crean requires her to give him an academic update on each of the players every day.  Now that is staying on top of things!   We've had a lot of gripes and complaints with Crean over the years---but academic performance is not one of them. The boys have averaged a 3.1 GPA during the Crean era.  (We won't talk about the Sampson era)   Well done in the academics area Marni, Coach Crean, Staff, and to our student-athletes!
