i do not like the offense that iu runs like many others on here however the numbers as well as former coaches and professionals in the buisness praise the offense all the time. I would be willing to bet that every team in the top 10 in adjusted offensive efficiency have been favored by at least 20 points in at least 5 games this year Regardless of how weak our B1G schedule is we will still play over 10 games against top 100 competition. Last years team which is the same offense and players as this years team ( add Bryant for hanner) finished 9th in adjusted offensive efficiency and had the 23rd ranked sos( rpi sos which the committee uses). Again I'm with many on here and do not like the offense that is ran but i will not deny the numbers or opinion of ex coaches in the business.

http://www.insidethehall.com/2015-2016-indiana-basketball-schedule/ The Rutgers game was on espn2, I think you mean Nebraska. If you look at this schedule breakdown 10 of our 18 big 10 games are on ESPN networks with the Maryland game tbd so it will be on ESPN or cbs and 2 others on cbs. So 13 of our 18 games in the B1G are not on BTN For comparison, Michigan state has 6 conference games on the BTN compared to our 5 games on the BTN

@AndrewVcourt James Blackmon Jr. is still being evaluated, and will make the trip to Nebraska tomorrow. #iubb

Didn't want to start a new thread for this so I put it in here http://www.si.com/extra-mustard/2015/12/28/straight-no-chaser-indiana-hoosiers

i would add at Minnesota to that list as well. We will be favored in that game. Minnesota is 6-7 and have lost to South Dakota, South Dakota state, and Milwaukee all at home

then so are everyone's numbers. Happy new year

you or me might not like the offense that is ran but it's still top 10 in adjusted offensive efficiency(not saying I like it but numbers do)

i know you are not being serious but no we are not the worst team in the B1G. All 3 of our losses are to ken Pom top 100 teams. Whereas Rutgers is Rutgers, Illinois has lost to north Florida and Chattanooga both at home Minnesota is 6-7 and has lost to South Dakota and South Dakota st both at home, Ohio st has lost to ut Arlington and Louisiana tech both at home, wisky has lost to western Illinois and Milwaukee both at home, Nebraska lost to Sanford at home and to creighton (who we beat), penn st lost to Radford at home and at Duquesne, it's probably a coin flip if we are better then Michigan and northwestern. Iowa, Maryland, Michigan state, and Purdue are all better then iu at this point in my opinion

before the Purdue game it was in the 140's and after that game it dropped down into the 90's and now it shot back up into 140's. That's a lot of movement in between games

@jeffborzello Kellen Dunham's slump continues. 0-for-21 from 3 in last four games, 2-for-32 in last five. 10-for-60 overall in last five games.

Providence with a big road win at butler

@DraftExpress Rawle Alkins looks to have added 15-20 pounds of bad weight since I last saw him. Still a super talent w/great instincts.Shot wasn't falling

rutgers was freaking awful last year when they beat wisky at home. In my opinion any road win is gold. We are plus 1 in the road win column, 3 more road wins equals are total from last year in the B1G

@JonRothstein Road wins in conference play are like free appetizers during Happy Hour: just take them and run.

A very long article on an ex Cincinnati assistant coach that is coming clean on things he did to get recruits. The article mentions Iu and knight but not in a negative light. If u have time and are interested it is worth reading. http://www.courier-journal.com/story/sports/tim-sullivan/2015/12/24/confessions-college-hoops-slimeball/77318732/

Wake wins at Lsu. The wake game was a missed opportunity for a sneaky top 100 win. It would of been a win like the Pittsburgh game last year. At the time beating Pitt at home didn't look impressive but they ended up being a top 50 rpi team.

@JeffRabjohns Four-star 2017 Indianapolis Park Tudor forward Jaren Jackson Jr. 30 points in a 61-52 win over North Daviess, per @IndianaHSBBGOTW.

i missed it thanks for the reminder

they also have Antonio Blakeney who was a 5 star stud in the 2015 class

Wake up 5 at half at Lsu

smu was part of an early season tounament last year. It wasn't a home and home game. According to this it was called the Hoosiers showcase http://www.insidethehall.com/2014/11/24/what-to-expect-eastern-washington/

Smu wins again. I feel bad for Moore because they would be a tournament team. That has got to sting being a senior and knowing you should be dancing but the NCAA penalizes the kids for what their coach did. Shake had another solid game. He led the Mustangs in scoring with 24

i knew he was a top 50 recuit coming to iu but never once while he was here did I think he should of been that highly ranked. Maybe a change schools will be good for him. I hope he does well. Rhode Island should be near the top of the a-10 next year

i was surprised vcu and Rhode Island still wanted Stan. That's still highly a couple of recognizable programs. Rhode Island probably would of made the tournament this year if their best player didn't get hurt. Hurley is a good coach
