The basketball team sells tickets and Crean doesn't break NCAA rules. I think that's what it comes down to for Glass and the university. They're satisfied with the success we have had. Winning national championships wouldn't make a top 10 list of their priorities for the program. He'll stay because IU doesn't want a coach who's bigger than the school.

Idk if the coaching staff had an arrangement with Zander or anything to keep him from being out there much and getting hurt, but I would've liked to see him play more tonight. I also would've liked to see Camion and Natee get on the field. Oh well, I guess /:

With this defense Suds might've won us 10 games.

That last play was the perfect summary of our season.

Yup. They have taken a ton of heat this season. They have a chance to erase it all right now.

Ralph Green has been phenomenal for us tonight.

How many kickers have lost back to back bowl games for their teams? Oakes might join the club tonight.

It puts the image in my head and I can really do without that

Our receivers aren't helping lagow out at all.

Is Zander dressed for the game?

Wilson's gone but Lagow handing the ball to the other team is here to stay.

Honestly I'm at the point where I'd be okay with taking a chance on an up and comer. With Crean its basically guaranteed that we'll have several terrible losses each season, lose our first game in the Big 10 tourney, and make it to the sweet 16 at best.

I really don't think there are any arguments for keeping him at this point. He has shown nothing that indicates he's capable of improving as a coach.

I thought the Fort Wayne loss would wake our guys up... Nah, that's just the team we are this year.

Post Christmas matchup hot take: The Warriors were better without Durant. Steph Curry just isn't the same this year, and they gave up too much to bring Durant in.

✅ CTA and staff making moves, I love it.

No one doubts his work ethic, character, etc. He's a great young man. His current game just doesn't really translate to the next level. I can't see him being able to guard very many players in the NBA. His feet are too slow. Noah Vonleh's game was better suited to the NBA imo and he's still struggling to find a role in the league.

How much of that can he really change though? I feel like his weaknesses are things that another summer/college season won't be able to help. I think it'd be best for him to have a great Big 10 season, leave for the draft and hope a team takes a chance on him in the first round. I really hope he's back in the candy stripes next season but I think he runs the risk of dropping his draft stock even more if he does.

How does him signing financial aid papers affect the situation if we did indeed pull his scholarship?

McSwain played tonight.

I've noticed that too. I can't tell if it's by design or if he isn't calling for the ball enough or what, but he hasn't been getting many touches lately. I hope it changes soon because we're going to need him to come up huge when Big 10 play starts.

Ah okay gotcha, that makes sense. Heck, he should've joined the 3 pointer party! Lol.

Yeah his judgment was definitely lacking but I think some of that had to do with him being on a visit with potential future teammates and wanting to fit in with them. I'm not excusing his behavior and no one forced him to do anything but 17 year old kids are impressionable and want to look "cool" to the college kids showing them around campus. I just don't think we should give up on him and yank the scholarship, based on what I read in the article. If he raped the girl with the host he was with then obviously that's a completely different story. Deadspin's account of the event doesn't make it seem like that's what happened.

I didn't watch but how did TB only end up with 3 shots? The big fella needs to be more assertive.
