AZ Hoosier

I think my butt hurts from all the sunshine being pumped up there...

Why is Z3 overplaying the driver and giving him a direct path to the hoop? That's happening too much.

Awesome defensive lapse right there... complete with hatchet chop foul...

Not a huge fan of these announcers... don't think that they're watching the same game that we are.

C'mon, Yogi, you got 4 other guys on your team...

ANOTHER steal by JBJ...

  I got not problem with that if he let's it come to him. The problem is when he tries to force it. It's almost always a TO.

  Yep... pUKe vs PUke.

Wow, JBJ with a steal... was that sort of like "defense"?

Good hustle from Troy on that "almost" putback.

At the half, both teams have 20 points in the paint... IU with only 8 turnovers. Sure looked like more than that. The 14 assists is a good sign.

There goes Troy again, looking for a Sports Center Top Ten play of the day... just take the layup.

Why do they set up for the charge inside the circle? That's automatically a block, regardless of the play. Somebody should teach these guys how to do that.

 Points or turnovers? :D  17 points

  Yep. It's all calculated.

Nice defensive lapse... rotate away from the basket and give 'em a wide open path to the basket.

Too many turnovers, and as has been stated, too many offensive boards for Alcorn.

  Curious about CTC's reception when he was introduced... (NO, mods, I am not going "there"... it's an honest question rooted in curiosity.)

I wish we could play 0-5 cupcakes every game.

  Has Matta expressed any interest in IU? I can't see him leaving anOSU to come here. I would not hate it, but I just don't see it happening.

  He's entitled to his opinion. Even it he's dead wrong.

I am really happy for this bunch of guys. They played hard all season, and endured some collapses and some bad luck. In the end, they did what they needed to do, retained their grip on The Bucket, and now they're going bowling.   I continue to enjoy watching Sudfeld play - the kid can compete and just won't quit.

  Say what you want about how much it matters (or not) that this stuff is out there, but it was the subject of discussion on the BigTen Network pregame show before the UNLV game. It gets press, it gets talked about, and it goes "viral" in the worst possible way - recruits and families of recruits read/hear/watch it.   And while nothing negative may result from her tirade, I can promise that nothing positive will come from this. IMO, it's just more of the overall negativity seen from the mediocrity that is the IU basketball program under this coach.

  Uncle Boo needs to explain a few things to her and talk her off the ledge.

The problem is that Glass doesn't have the huevos to fire Crean. If the big money boosters and the trustees don't get involved, we're stuck until 2020.
