The Kings just traded a top 10 player for peanuts. Wow. Call me crazy, but I could see the Pelicans making some noise in the West now.

If Crean stays past this season I'll still be an IU fan, but I'll care a whole lot less. Keeping him would show that Glass isn't serious about IU being a top-tier basketball program, imo, and I'll have to adjust my expectations accordingly.

He dresses better for games that's for sure.

That's awesome haha. I'm not surprised that Pritchard was the life of the party. Stan Robinson got me and a couple friends into a frat party one time so I always liked him even though he did some knucklehead things off the court. I was really naïve when I first started college and thought that the basketball team was full of like straight-edges who didn't party or anything and just focused on basketball so it was such a culture shock when I saw otherwise lmao.

Yeah it's pretty clutch haha. Makes me feel old eating in the food courts and seeing how young some of the kids look though lol I couldn't stand Greah after the first like 3 weeks of freshman year haha. I always liked their breakfast food though. Can't go wrong with a breakfast buddy.

Haha that's awesome, how do you like it? Back when Crean made the team live here I remember some girl trying to get me to help her find Hanner's room. Poor Crean thought having them stay on campus would keep them out of trouble but we all know that didn't work out too well.

They put a new food court in Forest my freshman year (2013) that I like better than Wright. It has more like restaurant quality food compared to the fast food the others have. Steak, shrimp, wings, pasta, stuff like that. I talked my parents into buying me a meal plan this year so I hit up Wright whenever I need my Charley Biggs chicken fix lol.

Props on surviving that man, I would've melted haha. The 90+ degree Bloomington summer days are no joke. I live in the Union Street apartments by Eigenmann now and they're always sending us emails about how we need to keep our windows closed. Idk what it is with RPS and open windows. No one's ever said anything to me about them though so no reason to close them lol.

Were you in Wright? My gf lived there last year and I could barely stand hanging out in her room lol. Then in the winter it doesn't get any better since they crank the heat to like 85 degrees smh.

Ahh okay. I knew they were renovating Read to make it air conditioned, and then converting some buildings back into dorms, but I didn't know they were bringing AC to the other ones without it too. IU's really making a lot of improvements throughout campus. I'm lowkey salty I won't be around to enjoy them lol.

Troy and Stan must've been doing their extra curricular activities that got them suspended when they were tweeting lol because I lived in the same dorm building as them and the whole thing was air conditioned.

What's the AC thing? The players all already stay in AC dorms

Right now I'm too focused on hating on Crean as our coach to worry about Glass. If he makes us sit through another year of this garbage then I'm not going to be a big fan of his, though.

Yep. Swinging and missing is better than not even stepping up to the plate. We know what we have in Crean, and it isn't good enough. The next guy might not be the one, but we can't be afraid to take the risk.

Why would he want to come back though? He brought us 3 banners and made iubb what it is today, then we fired him. I don't think it's fair to expect him to come back. I know I wouldn't want to in his shoes.

If the booster money really is starting to dry up then I think it'll be easy for Glass to cut him loose.

They were so much fun to watch. I was really pleased with a Big 10 title and a Sweet 16 appearance because I never expected anything close to that with the way they looked early on. The highs and lows are too much for me though. I was expecting Crean to build off that, gain recruiting momentum, etc., but instead we're stinking up the joint.

I wanted Crean fired during the 2014-15 year after back to back crappy seasons. He lured me back onto his side with last year's performance. I thought he was actually improving as a coach. Then this season I got back on board with firing him. He's taken a team with 2 McDonald's all Americans and several 4 stars and driven them to the near bottom of the Big 10. Few have done less with more than him.

I think there's a really good chance he snaps if we lose a couple more in a row. I was dyingggg of laughter when he was going crazy at the end of the first half.

Who cares what they were saying. Newkirk was being talked about as Yogi's replacement in the offseason and we see how that has worked out. OG might've been talked about as "The Guy" to watch in the offseason, but he wasn't delivering on it. He had been underwhelming before he get hurt. He was averaging 9.2 points and 4.5 rebounds per game in the 6 Big Ten games he played in. He averaged 9.9 and 4.7 in the ten games he played in against teams worth a crap. His shooting percentages were down from the year before. He was being projected as a 1st rounder because of his potential, not because of his performance on the court. We had a thread talking about who our best player was a little before he went down and no one was picking OG. I'm not trashing the kid, and I hope he has a speedy recovery and a successful career in the league. However, he wasn't great for us. He was an above average player. They're acting like we lost freakin' LeBron James.

With only two games against ranked teams. L.O.L.

The announcers were milking the injuries hard tonight. We're down one guy from the start of the season. OG was a good player for us, but he wasn't THAT good. They've been talking him up big time since he went down.

The tank train stays on track.

If he stuck to throwing down dunks he would be in good shape lol. I don't think it would be crazy to expect 15-20 minutes out of him next year. There should be plenty of playing time available for the taking.
