In high school it was Rex Chapman. I played with Lyndon Jones in a Y league. This was about five years ago but he was still good even at our age. lol

Yeah, how could a coach not play Bryant and Maker together even Crean???? LOL Cal or any other coach in NCAA would die to have the front court of Bryant, Maker, and Williams!

Yeah, this just kills me...If Crean was a good enough coach he would coach too his team's strength. If Maker comes to IU I still see him starting 5-TB, 4-Troy, 3-RoJo, 2-JBJ, 1-Yogi. With all those talented true 4's on the bench. Next years lineup would be scary with Holt or even Hartman at the 4 and Troy playing his natural position at the 3. RoJo should spell Yogi or JBJ as our 6th man off the bench IMO. If Maker comes to IU things should get interesting. I don't see Maker coming unless he's told he has a starting spot.

You are right and wrong IMO. Yes Crean loves stretch 4's but Troy is a coaches dream 3 without a doubt. Hartman is more of a stretch 4 with his ability too knock down the 3 consistently. Now I agree it will most likely be TB, Troy, RoJo, JBJ, and Yogi. I think we will see a lot of Hartman starting at the 4 also. I think this is by far our best lineup. I love OG and Holt but they both will most likely play out of position at times. Holt will spell TB unfortunately because Holt would be a stud at most other schools as a true PF.

Oh sorry for the off topic. I was just reading the last couple of post instead of the thread. So welcome, Harrison Niego glad you decided too be a Hoosier! :)

OK, the poster that said Jurkin and Hanner would be NBA 1st rd draft picks if they were decently coachable is way off, " I agree." But Hanner really doesn't get enough credit IMO. If we play Hanner beside a true 5 like TB he would be a freak this coming season, I guarantee it! I would go as far as saying he would be the best Power 4 in the B1G hands down. Now that being said I don't think we will see a lot with Creans coaching. Playing small ball and loving stretch 4's it would be out of his comfort zone offensively. So Hanner will most likely back up TB at the 5. We will be deep and talented. I know Crean will experiment, but I think this team's best lineup next season is: 1 Yogi 2 JBJ 3 Troy 4 Hanner 5 TB

Man i saw that movie when it first came out. Wasn't it Nover that wanted a new tractor for his families farm or something like that?

Starting on my new man cave for the upcoming season. Its going to be a mixture of Hoosiers and Colts! Also just got me a rescue lab/boxer mix puppy. Working on training, her name is Indy!

WOW, I can't believe I'm actually saying this but he will get more playing time at UK next season so I wouldn't be that upset losing him too Cal !

I know that will be the starting lineup but if coach Cal had this IU team next season I think he would start TB at the 5 and HMP at his natural position at the 4. I know thats irrelevant but I would love to see the front line with TB, HMP, and Troy at the 3.

Great news. Man did we ever need a recruit so badly. Can't wait to see TB at the "5" next season for the HOOSIERS!!!

JBJ you better stay at IU 4 years before you go play pro ball in Europe!

We have way more talent. But if we could be as fundamental as WSU especially on defense this IU team would be very dangerous!

Game Time, Let's Go HOOSIERS!!!!!

Living here in Savannah, Ga I get all my info from here now. So after watch his injury I thought for sure he was done. This is AWESOME news for HMP and IU!!!!!

As much as I absolutely hate IU not being in the tourney we don't deserve to make it. There are teams on the bubble that have been playing better basketball here at the end of the season. This Hoosier team was a lock early on but right now they are horrible! They really need to make a run in the B1G tourney too have a shot.

''Snow Crean and the 7 dwarfs''

Another year without the Hoosiers in the NCAA tourney. Very frustrating!!!

Our half court offense is horrible. We stand a better chance jacking 3's.

I honestly think I could coach this team better than Crean. I haven't coached at the high school or college level but I did stay at a holiday inn express last night!

What is up with JBJ ? He is playing horrible as of late.

I loved it for a minute. Sure didn't last long. CTC subs so much I don't think he realized they both were in. LOL

Too bad we just can't play other teams in a game of HORSE. That's the only thing basketball related that Crean could coach and be successful!!!

If we can't play a 7ft 250lb player who is our only 5 on the roster for 4 minutes up by 30pts then he shouldn't be on scholarship!!!

It has to be something too it if it frustrates all of us fans. I really don't understand some of his substitutions when someone is playing well. I don't care how you sugar coat it, it makes no sense. Hell he even took out April after only a couple minutes at garbage time when he was playing great. If we need anyone on this roster to get some minutes at garbage it's definitely April.
