JF87

I read somewhere that Woodson said the play was designed to get Reneau or Johnson the shot.

We're 6th in the nation! Yep, IU basketball is ranked 6th in KenPom's "Luck" rating. Look out Tarleton State. IU is coming for that number 1 ranking. :)

PSU's only tall player had fouled out. How do you not run a play for Ware in that situation? It worked out, but I think Ware would have been the better option.

IU 72 Neb 68

Where's the guy that said we needed to win so Woodson could retire on a high note? I took him at his word.

Nebraska is a good matchup. Ware should dominate the interior again. As long as Nebraska doesn't go crazy from three, we should win.

Kel'el has been an absolute stud these last 5 games and has been our difference maker on both ends. I'm happy for him. His NBA dream should come true. The staff deserves credit for developing his game and running more plays for him as the season progressed. I think a shout out should go to Cliff Marshall as well. Ware appears to be falling away less, playing stronger and more aggressive on the interior.

The sad thing is that it took the staff half the year to realize the value of Leal's experience and understanding of the rotations. He's a good player to bring in off the bench. Who knows what our ratings would be if Leal had played more earlier in the year.

Survive and advance

I love the zone. Good job Woodson!

I love the kid, but yeah,,, sometimes he reacts without thinking.

Yes. I think he'll be like Brad Davison when he's a junior and senior. Just a pesky player that makes plays. He won't be a star, but a solid contributor.

Cupps doing a respectable job guarding Ace Baldwin so far.

I feel like we should be up by 15

This Duke game is like every horror movie. You think the monster is dead and you're always wrong.

Johnson, Leal, Cupps, and Gunn are going to need to step up without Galloway. They are all capable. We just need them to do it.

That's one way to look at it or you could say that we were -16 without Galloway on the floor.

Should we start the Matt Painter to Louisville rumors? :)

Dolson only needs to ask himself one question. Is any school going to try and steal Mike Woodson away from us? Obviously, the answer is no.

KU's small forward Furphy is now a 1st round pick. Liam will slide into his starting role next year.

Sorry, if it's been reported, but Lamont Paris received an extension from South Carolina.

So, Jamie Dixon would be a no.

For a man his age, I'm impressed his beard doesn't have any grey.

Yes, we are going to win. Ware is playing extremely well on both ends. Fewer fouls called in tournament play, so Ware shouldn't get into foul trouble. With Ware on the floor, our defense can stop PSU at the rim. No way they shoot the lights out from three against us again.

If IU misses the NCAA Tourney, I think it would be hilarious if Nevada made the Elite Eight. Heads would explode.
