We're not a very good team. My momma said if I can't say anything nice don't say anything at all.

At least give him the ball and bring it up for a desperation 3

Just wow. Over it

[IUfan_Charlie 3,867]

This team may not make the tournament. I can't believe it.

I hate it for the players but I'm starting to accept this season for exactly that. Weird feeling

[ThompsonHoosier 3,413]

They gave us every chance to win at the end and we could do nothing. Why does OG wait to go that hard to the rim until the last minute of the game? What a joke.

It's how I felt at the end of Davis tenure.

Dakich should tell Crean about how Johnson shoots better on the right wing. Lol

Hello NIT.

[Alford Bailey 12,273]

Maryland is very average and our best option is a very streaky shooter. Neither team or coach with much of a bb IQ

[hsrtxp 1,400]

I'm not even as mad as before.  Guess I'm getting used to it. SMH!

Same here. It's not worth it. Sad but true. Gonna take a lot for me to get excited about this season again. I'll still be watching but I'm done yelling at the TV. Poor thing is tired of getting yelled at.

If this team misses the the ncaa. I can't see how anyone can say he should be brought back.

[reconmkd 4,187]

Man why did I stay up for this I called the loss but there was glimmers of hope that continuously get shot down! Ugh 430 is gonna come early 

[Naismith 136]

Seconds remaining and IU is down by three and OG drives for a thunderous dunk.  That's two points.  Maryland's ball.  Great plan...

[IUfan_Charlie 3,867]

I didn't even get excited when OG dunked it because I knew we were going to lose. Screw you Crean. This team is too talented to be 11-6. 

[bleedhoosier 3,627]

Is anyone even surprised at this? I wonder what the stat is on a 9pm game and Crean. I know I constantly skip overtime and then go for 5 hrs of sleep trying to watch a late one and come out dejected every time. My wife even says "why do u even watch late games, have they ever pulled one out"? I honestly didn't know how to answer. I thought about, then no, I guess..

This is the thing. Tom Crean cannot pull theses games out. He absolutely has to have a 6 or 7 point cushion.

On a positive note, I think it's time to split Green and Newkirk's time down the middle. Kid looked so much more settled in tonight.

Every loss is a step closer to a Crean exit. If that's the way it has to be then I can live with it. 

[Yogi's Picnic Basket 5,004]

Maaaaan. I am sorry but this team isn't losing because of talent. The offense doesnt even suit this team. JBJ and RoJo are the only guys who can create 3s yet we set our offense towards that. We don't screen nearly enough because Crean wants to play 4 out 1 in. Designing plays on the baseline with no true pg is stupid. Talent is the only reason we have 11 wins this year. That Butler game turned our season around which last year at the classic it did for the better. Maybe we should get outta that event.

That is not terrible if we then don't just stand there and let them throw it in to Melo. We just stood. No D and slow to even foul.

[Alford Bailey 12,273]

Bryant looks worse every game. 0 post moves and man handled by no names again.
