Vitale has also stuck up for UNC and Syracuse. He is a joke. He just pumps up these "elite" schools and its nauseating

How is it that Kansas can continually play if they had been using an ineligible player all season?

I just don't believe the hype of this years team. Yes they are great, but they have only played 3 ranked teams all year and play in one of the weakest conferences in my eyes. They have had too many close calls against subpar competition. I see them getting beat in the tournament. I'll admit that its impressive that all their guys have bought into the system though.

There was a nice video of him getting dunked on by a 6'6" player on Friday or Saturday

On ESPN they were saying how ND doesn't play good D but can outscore everything and win games

Health was never an issue. 

He just recently came back from a broken foot….

I think what it comes down to is he just loves to push peoples buttons and be a little controversial and he does that job very well lol. I love listening to his radio show. He isn't my number one choice for commentators on a game but he isn't terrible either

Purdue fans are going livid on Twitter. Its hilarious. Dakich isn't afraid to tell it like it is. He will call anyone out. Us IU fans know that first hand

Exactly. But most likely they would opt out to be able to play somewhere

If you really think about it though anyone else that we recruited that ended up at major schools have only shown flashes. Pinson got hurt, but looked terrible before that. Goodluck has been decent on D for UNLV but not even a flash of offense. Isaiah Whitehead is a whole mess that we should be glad we "missed" on. Its not sour grapes, its just how it is. I still would have taken Goodluck though. He would've been good in the future

Me too, I don't think he wanted anything to do with playing with Yogi or JBJ though

  Seems like most of the recruits that people complained that we  "missed on" this year ended up either not turning out that good or being head cases

I loved it at Hoosier Hysteria this year when Sage Steele interviewed her in front of the crowd and mentioned her being a Purdue grad and EVERYONE booed so loud. It was super awkward for her haha

I think this is what it comes down to. A lot of the time as fans of teams, players, and coaches we generally want to know what all the reasons were, etc but a lot of the times schools are not allowed to go into full detail because of legal reasons

Id like in on that!

They didn't have a lot to begin with either. They have been down for years

Hence why I started my whole response off with that it happens to both "players and coaches". My example was of player because it happens to both

It honestly happens all the time with players and coaches. Look at the recent news with Duke. They kicked  Rasheed Sulaimon without really giving a reason and it later came out that he had been accused of sexual assault and Duke just acted like they had no idea and still won't comment on the situation. I think AD's and coaches try to lie and sweep things under the rug constantly. I think they should be held accountable though

He is probably still weighing everything that just happened to Syracuse and waiting to see how things go here. From the sounds of everything though, he is a heavy lean towards us. A week or two ago I had read that he was down to us and Syracuse even though Kentucky was still trying their best.

Maura Muensterman is a huge loss to this team. One of the best shooters Ive seen. Heck of a scorer in high school, but wasn't given much of shot this year. Kind of surprising that a lot of these talented players didn't get a lot of playing time when the team struggled so bad this year. 

From the sounds of it, Zeisloft came in with a one year plan. Will get his masters and be gone. He isn't getting pushed out of the program

If he graduates from his grad program over the summer there is nothing left for him to actually do at IU academically and I don't think he could even stay if he or we wanted him to

Yeah can we get back to Thomas Bryant? haha

Could be that he is only here to do a 1 year grad program though
