    Nova came in here with a plan and they are executing.

    This has to compete for the weirdest recruiting ever right? Hey guys I'm going to college early! Oh poop. I meant on time! Nvm. I'm not going. Coaches everywhere are unexplainably fired.

    http://www.sportingnews.com/list/4700805-college-basketball-top-25-ranking-2016-17-kentucky-duke-recruiting-villanova-unc-louisville? Text from above tweet. No. 10. Indiana Hoosiers 2015-16 record: 27-8 Expected to return: G Robert Johnson, F Juwan Morgan, G James Blackmon, Jr., F Collin Hartman Key draft decisions: F Troy Williams, F Thomas Bryant, G OG Anunoby Why they’re here: It’s hard to know exactly where to rank Indiana right now. If Williams, Bryant and Anunoby all return — which is certainly possible — the Hoosiers deserve to be in the discussion for a spot in the top three. If all three leave — which doesn’t seem likely — they’d be a bit further down in the top 25. So we’ll put Tom Crean’s team here for now, knowing they’ll score a ton of points regardless and knowing that De’Ron Davis (a 6-9 recruit) will make an immediate impact next year, too.
  7. What?!? Did something happen to Oakes?!? Oh. Quarterback. I guess that's important too.
  8. I certainly don't hold being skeptical against you, just wanted to know what you were basing your opinion on.
  9. Is this still based on his single-game performance or is there something else?

    IU Basketball: Who is leaving? Who is staying?

    Unless you're projected in the lottery I don't get why you'd want to hire an agent immediately given the new rules.

    No, in the end he wouldn't have been enough, but I didn't know it at the time. I'd still take him any year.

    Giants and it's an even year so I'll see you boys in the World Series!

    I remember setting alerts on his name on twitter and news apps just waiting to see if he'd decide to play in college because I knew he would come here if he did. Broke my meaty heart when I saw that draft headline.

    Also, it can also depend on what part of "worse" you're looking at. Emotionally? I am sure Oklahoma fans feel worse right now than we did last week. Once you put some time between you and the game then it's easy to remember you still reached the Final Four, but right now... hurts. Realistically? Then a loss is a loss and you always want to advance.

    Wait, is that flip-flopping? For the record, I don't really have an opinion, that's why I was polling the room so to speak.

    Didn't set the record for biggest NCAA Tournament blowout either. That counts for something.

    I guess Oklahoma and Villanova fans who stuck around for the second game can escape the wreckage. The NCAA would find a way to ignore them anyway.

    Not enough defense in this game.

    My favorite part of the Tourney is real teams from every conference playing each other. I would love to see an Oregon v. Indiana game, it would just be two teams competing to see who can play less defense.

    I just can't stop hoping the whole building collapses with no survivors. Does that make me a bad person?

    So, would you rather have our tourney run or Oklahoma's? Is making the Final Four and being utterly demolished better? With the record margin?

    The woman in our office who just picked her alma matter and then random teams is feeling pretty smug about her Villanova pick right now. They look like a championship team. Of course, she surely isn't watching. But when I tell her on Monday...

    And along the exact opposite lines, I would love to see us add a Pac-12 event so west coast fans have a chance to see the Hoosiers. Plus, I think most of those games would be baller. We have a great football relationship, we need a basketball one.
