It’s working. Refs can’t call them all

Should be around 40 fouls

Howard fouled Yaxel 3 times before they finally called it and Settles didn’t like the call lol

Fouling the heck out of Michigan

They started calling some but Iowa still fouls on about every play. I’ve slowly over the year of watching them play begin to hate the way they play and am glad IU didn’t land him as coach. Interested to see how he does in the B1G next year without his everything man

ISU falls by 1. 2-11 in 1 possession games in the MVC now.

Tie game at half in this wrestling match

Big wins have proven to outweigh bad losses. TCU lost to New Orleans at Home Q4 loss, Notre dame at home (Q3 loss) but have some huge wins Florida, @Texas Tech and others and they are projected comfortably in for now

Iowas defense tonight is genius. Foul the crap out of everyone and hand check and make the refs call it all game. So far refs letting it go.

Drake up 2 with 10 min to go ISU/Valpo up after this one.

Southern Illinois up 4 at half over Drake Arch Madness is the best

Yeah. He went to Creighton to be closer to his mom who was battling cancer and sadly she lost her battle with cancer during the season

Kind of expected sort of drop from him knowing what he has been going through this year during the season

Depends on what this committee feels is important. It could be enough. That year pretty much every bracketologist including me thought that winning 1 was going be enough that year. Turns out IU needed the game against Illinois as well since they were second to last team in the field

It will be very important. David Worlock who works for the ncaa and is the guy when it comes to the ncaa tourney has gone out of his way to emphasize that for selection it is the tool bracketologist should pay attention to. Last year every at large team with a WAB 42 or better got selected. North Carolina was 42 and West Virginia the first team out was 48. IU was 48th last year. OSU is currently 39th in WAB. Got to think a road win moves ius up close to the 40 line

Ius WAB moved up to 48 after the Minny game. They were at 51 after the Sparty game. Win at OSU and that number will keep improving.

That’s best case scenario for IU. IU needs cheap Q2 wins like some of these of teams get against non tourney teams to fill the resume. Since it’s a neutral court game Northwestern is a Q2. Penn st would be a Q3. That would do nothing to help the resume

In Conwells case I think even if you know he isn’t coming the head coach of Indiana has to try. He was one of the hottest guards in the portal and had Indiana connections. Kind of like the head coach of IU needs to be presence at Indiana high school sectional of final games even if they are not recruiting anyone at that time. Unwritten rule sort of speak. If he wouldn’t have went after Connell he would have gotten blasted on here for not even trying. He was perfect but in this case I don’t think he did anything wrong. Just my opinion

No day basketball today is ridiculous games start at 4:30

Yep just got to hope our assistant’s connections pay off like it did for some of these teams last year

They swung for the fences off the bat with 2 kids that were not going to go to IU from the jump. Conwell they had to go after just because but he was going to Louisville. Kelsey tried to get him the year before but got a late start. Once he went into the portal this year Kelsey had the jump on everyone since he is basically from that area or have a ton a family from that area. Dix they had to go after because of the relationship DeVries had with him but that kid was going to go where ever was closest to his mom that was battling cancer and sadly she lost her battle with cancer during the season. UConn had a moment of silence at their home game against Creighton this year

For the time being Marquette moved to 99 which makes that win a Q2. Makes the number of Q2 wins look better but like with the others that are close to a quad cutoff line it doesn’t make the win any better or worse
