    Just watched on IMAX 3D defiantly worth the wait. Can't wait to take the 4 year old to watch it in couple of weeks when it is not as crowded

    (2018) SG Romeo Langford - INDIANA HOOSIERS

    the game I watched him play at southport he played more SF, they had 2 smaller guards handling the ball and bringing it up but I can very well see him as a SG in college. The kid is a stud and was worth the price of admission (10 bucks). I would assume Louisville will be the favorite to land him if I had to guess

    its not easy I lost my dad in 2009 he was 63 and I just turned 31 and then lost my mom at the age of 63 in 2012. I wouldn't wish that on my worst enemy

    IU vs ND post-game thread

    If we put 8 wins together that would mean we would have 3 wins vs top 100 ken Pom and 3 true road wins so I would say yes we would be in the top 25

    IU vs ND post-game thread

    in my opinion I didn't think it was a must win for the dance. In the big 10 we still have game against 10 ken Pom top 56 teams( 5 of those against the top 18) and 3 more against fringe top 100 (Nebraska 110, Illinois 116). The committee loves top 100 wins and no bad losses. As of today all our losses our against top 100 teams. As much as I hate rpi that will be the one that matters instead of ken Pom but it's to early for rpi to mean anything. With the notre dame (top 25 ken Pom) win however it gives us some breathing room if we lay an egg in the big ten. It might not seemed at the time but the creighton win is a top 100 win and will look good on our resume as long as they stay in the top 100.

    i don't think there will ever be a time where I won't get knots in my stomach and pace like a madman during a big iu game driving everyone around me watching crazy( ask my brother-in-law or brother they are both members on this board as well) Regardless of who is coach or how poorly the kids are playing, on a personal level iu basketball means too much. Like many on this board my love for iu basketball came from my father(hopefully I will share that love with my 4 year old.) Before there was message boards I had my own 2 person message board with my dad. Even when I moved away I could count on a call from him after a big IU win or we would vent about a terrible loss. There has only been one season in my life that I choose not to watch any iu game or any college basketball game for an entire year and that was the season after April 2009. That was the year my dad passed away from heart failure and watching iu or any college basketball just hurt too much. For me personally, a poorly coached or kids who play terrible defense Indiana basketball team is better then no Indiana basketball team. This is just my opinion I have no problem with other people's stance on not getting excited for Iu games with the product on the floor.

    even when their defense was rated lower the ours I never thought we had a better defense. To me those efficiency ratings are just guidelines. I trust my own eyes more then the numbers. Notre dames defense on the other hand I always felt like we could make a run on them

    crazy to think before this game they had a ken Pom defense ranking of 136th but after the game jumped to 98th.

    After watching alot of Iowa st games this year I will tell you one thing they might be a talented team but they have benefited from some questionable calls in each game. Don't go near niang or you will be called for a foul

    IU vs ND post-game thread

    notre dame had some breakdowns as well. Blackmon had some wide open threes he missed. I always felt we could make a run against notre dame because defensively from the games I've watched, they gave up some leads. Just once in one of these neutral court matchups I would love for us to play a complete game so I can watch in peace.

    IU vs ND post-game thread

    couldnt you say every team is lucky from other teams missing open looks. I'm watching the 2nd half now and just watched Blackmon miss a layup and then a put back layup
