    IU vs Louisville Game Thread

    IMO, this Louisville team is a little over rated. Very good but not great yet. Their guards aren't on the level of Smith and Siva of recent years yet. Yea, Harrell is a beast and will get his. The key I think is Blackshear. If he goes off we are done, keep him in check we have a shot.

    Style wise,a faster pace, we matchup ok. We have to shoot it well and hit our FT's. Louisville doesn't shoot it well from 3 but if they happen to hit at a higher % I don't think we can win. Believe me, our zone will give them good looks. I think we can at least hang in a shootout.

    Nine assists for RJ was nice but I gotta give it to Holt.

    AntLee wasn't much of a miss for us, IMO. Bunch of athletes on this OSU team but seem to be missing a leader.

    The guy couldn't practice because his knee was still swelling a week before the season started. I honestly didn't think he'd see the floor this year. His play has been nothing short of amazing so far considering the injury.

    EH is a ball player. Many of us saw that potential. He just needed the minutes. Crean seems to be workin hard to keep Hanners confidence up but Emmitts play is gonna demand some of those minutes.

    Reminded me a little of CZ on that one break where he caught it and went straight up for the lay in.

    Troy is great at cleaning up junk around the rim but other than that......that shot he took dribbling across the lane at full speed turning sideways and throwing it up was terrible and outta control for sure.

    I'd still keep Max in there

    Not a typical Pitt team of the last few years but yea, I'll give him credit. Giving Holt those minutes was huge.

    Defense looked better but Pitt still missed alot of open looks. Gotta keep workin on the D. Liked the way the guys fought. Emmitt, WOW. We found our inside presence.

    The nation's perspective on IUBB

    My hope is we are one great hire away from doing what Bama did in football.

    The nation's perspective on IUBB

    Interesting, as I was watching Notre Dame get spanked by USC again I thought what the heck has happened my in state favorites ( IU basketball and ND football). Both have kinda become a joke in their respective sports. Many fans still act like these programs are running with the big dogs but really they have become irritating little yapper dogs. ND may be a little more mind boggling though as they are recruiting at a high level.

    Nebraska fires 9-3 Coach Bo Pelini

    No need to feel sorry for Bo. He new the expectations and made millions. He may be better suited as a big time D coordinator.

    1-7 in conference. Could it get much worse?

    Nebraska fires 9-3 Coach Bo Pelini

    Nebraska was an elite football program who competed for championships. Not so much lately. Good example of a school who is not gonna sit still and let the program become average. Our basketball program should take lessons from this.

    The Hoosier fight song just doesn't sound right on a football field.
