    The 2015 NCAA Tournament Thread

    oklahoma fans would probably want to see the matchup played outside the state of Ohio since they were a 3 seed and had to play an 11 seeded Dayton team 90 mins from campus

    no need to look at entire roster because he only plays 6-7 players. His team did go to the elite 8 last year with the core players. The question I would ask would be could he of gotten away playing his small lineup if he played in big 10, acc instead of a-10? How would r small lineup stack up against a-10 completion. Fwiw I think he has done a tremendous job I just think it's hard to compare the difference in competition of conferences

    5 of their 6 scholarship players are upperclassmen. That seems to be a older team to me

    when he is coaching in a game he knows he is going to win

    Thoughts on WSU Coach Gregg Marshall

    im hoping you just worded that poorly because if that really is his thought then I'm not sure I would want a coach that would want something handed to him on a silver platter. I would thank that coaches would take great pride in building a program up

    End of year grade?

    i would define a Cinderella has any team that has no buisness making a final 4 but thanks for telling me to rewrite history. U have your definition and I have mine. Good day

    beating at duke team that started 4 pros doesn't count as Cinderella. Ok

    End of year grade?

    i agree with everything u r saying. We have a bigger problem then coaching if we want to get our program back to where we all want it to be

    End of year grade?

    results paint the program as average When our current coach has 2 sweet 16 appearances and that is the farthest we have gone in the tourney(besides a Cinderella run in 2002)as a program in the last 20 years. What else besides average would u call it? A sleeping giant

    C the same grade I give the program as a whole over the last 20 years (average)

    IUBB vs WSU Postgame :( Thread

    thats funny that made me laugh but if u really feel they couldn't tell a difference then that's still on the players for not being able to tell the difference between someone yelling "foul" and slapping his arm repeatedly and him clapping screaming "lets go". Someone should post a gif of him screaming foul and slapping his arm

    IUBB vs WSU Postgame :( Thread

    i think the fact that he was on tape giving the foul sign slapping his arm like a mad man for 10 secs and the players still didn't foul give a creditable argument that in this case (no video proof on cody not listening) the players didn't listen to him

    Is IU Content to be Little Engine that Could?

    The biggest concern for me in that article would be that 2 freshman had no idea about the history of indiana basketball before they got on campus. Those statements should be eye opening to people here as to where we stand nationally as program. It's been a rough 20 years as a die hard fan. We have a program problem( regardless of who's coaching at Iu that needs to be fixed) Hopefully smarter people than me can figure it out so incoming freshman in 20 years know the history of the program before they step foot on campus

    water will always find its level. Byu couldn't miss in the 1st half and can't throw it in the ocean in the 2nd

    The 2015 NCAA Tournament Thread

    not sure how Xavier got a 6 seed with 13 losses (long beach st, utep, DePaul). I thought committee overvalued the big east this year. Xavier might be the underdog in Vegas in the next game against byu/ ole miss
  22. same here I request championship week and and 1st week of the tournament. (The friday and Saturday of championship week is almost as good as the 1st week of the tournament for basketball junkies). If I can't get this week off I will always find a way to get it off. I used Fmla bonding time with my newborn daughter last year to be off. The craziest thing I have done to be off during march madness was scheduling my wisdom teeth to be pulled out on theTuesday before the tourney (my wisdom teeth were not even bothering me , when I told the dentist I wanted them pulled but not for another 6 months she probably thought I was crazy)

    Selection Sunday Thread

    we were dancing even if uconn won (I think)
  24. Uspshoosier

    Are we good enough to dance?

    but since it is a discussion it might not be a bad idea to check out resumes of other teams in the same boat as Iu to see how our resumes compare to others

    Bubble Breakdown - March 12th

    i know u were talking about Kennedy I was just pointing out Moore was their best player all year. Committee can't assume smu would of won if he played. When they talk about gonzagas good non conference wins they include smu Kennedy didn't play in that one as well
