Crean saw my post. You can thank me Priller.

Guessing Crean is tired of reaction Priller gets so he is keeping him nailed to the bench.

Agree, looking forward to conference games, Going to be at Rutgers game and am guessing there will be a lot of candy stripes there, No doubt Rutgers stinks but at least it is a Big Ten road game.

Hey. Do not sell K State short. They only lost to Belmont by 25 and were able to stay within 12 of Chattanooga. This gives Troy a good taste of how he will do vs NBA competition.

Max should have politely said "excuse me" and then asked K "how does a 68 year old man not have a single grey hair?"

Still hard for me to believe the announcers do not have to discuss the UNC sanctions but that is because......."THEY DO NOT HAVE ANY!! Fake classes, players that get parking tickets while driving multiple different cars (wonder how they got those cars) and a culture of absolute academic fraud for YEARS and nothing happens. The way the NCAA administers "justice" is a complete joke.

Crean is complaining a little about the schedule but meanwhile the Duke-IU GAMEDAY thread is 6 pages 24 hours before the game even starts!!! Maybe fans prefer games like this over the "Mississippi Valley State Institute of the over 40 year old Little Sisters of the Poor" games?

I will also be there. I have been in Cameron but this will be first game I have seen. My excitement a few weeks ago has turned into "fear" :) They have won 122 non-conference home games in a row, we have no defense and I hate to complain about refs but the reality is if you are not up by 9 with a minute to go you are not winning at Cameron. We need to come out hitting threes or it is going to be a long night.

Yes. Look at stubhub and you will not find anything under 300 and it is 600-900 from baseline to baseline.

Yes. PU is looking real good and the way UM rotated the ball against NC State was a thing of beauty. Not sure how we handle PU underneath.

My positive side says.........Great to hear!!! My skeptical side says.....When Crean feels the heat he likes to show he is working 24/7.

Hate to say anything positive about PU fans but I wasted a few minutes reading their board (wanted to experience the beauty of their meltdown) and saw that they were really mad about that classless play. All of them were saying he should have been kicked out.

All three were fun to watch. All three were better than past years. All three count as losses in the standings. Also....keep reading about the OSU Suds and Howard injuries, which I agree were a HUGE bummer and I have said the same thing to friends, but if we go that route what about all the Maryland injuries (including QB) when they played us? Does that make one of our two conference wins count less? Again, do not get me wrong. Very happy we are going bowling, and will try to attend our bowl game, but just saying that in my opinion 1-5 in the division does not make the pre-season sports writers look like idiots.

You are correct that Crean does not shoot or pass, and he does some things well, however. each year.... Regardless of the players or lineups we seem to be mediocre when it comes to turnovers. Regardless of the players or lineups our perimeter defense is poor. Regardless of the players or lineups our help defense is poor. Regardless of the players or lineups we do not perform well against zones Who here has confidence we will get a good shot when there are 10 or less seconds on the shot clock? Who here has confidence in plays that are called during timeouts? Who here has confidence in the substitution patterns (in fairness a bit better this year) ? It would be one thing, and unfair, if I was referring to one game but the items above define the Crean teams each and every year. At some point Glass has to ask himself if improvement that will get us to the next level will ever be made under Crean.

Thanks. Feels good to care about the bowl announcements this year.

When will we know??

[quote name="HoosierReb01" post="217226" timestamp="1448832134"]Sorry. We'll just set back and wait for you to give the ok that we've done well enough to earn a few seconds of trash talk to the sportswriters.[/ I am thrilled we are going to a bowl but feel 1-5 in the division is not exactly a strong " trash talk" hand. Just my opinion..... not sure where your "permission" comment comes from.

We showed them!!! They had 6 teams in our division ahead of us but we went out and beat ONE of them. Going 1-5 in your division is "in your face" IU style.

Feel free to boo me but in my opinion going 2-6, with both wins being against teams that won one single conference game, does not exactly blow away their predictions. That being said....VERY happy we won two road games to get to a bowl. Even though both teams are horrible I did not see us winning two road games in a row. Glad to be wrong.

Really need a QB, Zander has a ton of heart, runs well, but has little touch, accuracy or arm strength. Without a QB it will be like Wilson's first year in which many expected him to do a lot with the large number of letterman he inherited (there were a lot of " imagine what he will do with all of this talent"comments) but the graduation of Ben Chappel was a huge loss. Suds graduating will also hurt a ton unless we find someone.

With three seconds to go Crean calls a play that confuses Coach K and IU wins 79-78 Do I think it will happen? No, but this will be my first game at Cameron and I am hoping for the best.

Is this game going to be shown on the primary BTN channel?

Hanner would have LOVED Maui.

Agree. Get them out. We are up 3 scores.

Jay bob, Ask the Maryland fans if they need help burning couches tonight. Not sure if they only do it after wins but who knows?
