Game Thread : Indiana vs Northwestern (Senior Night)

[Trish]

 

 

Tomorrow's game is huge. Will it be Tom Crean's last game in Assembly Hall? yes

How much will that Indiana kid on Northwestern go for? 43

Will Collin Hartman possibly play? Why not at this point

I will admit, I wasn't a big supporter of Collin when he first came on the scene.  I thought it might be another stretch potential recruit of Crean's.

He made me eat my words and became the glue person that this team needed...desperately needed this year.

Good luck to you kind sir in all that you do!!!

This is probably the last chance for a win. I dnot see wins at purdue or ohio state.

I just hope the place is packed for Collin Hartman.  He's a true Hoosier and deserves a night of appreciation from the fans.  None of this mess is his fault.

If Crean is gone, I hope the news comes within the next 24 hours. I would like Crean to have the final game at Indiana where the fans don't boo and are supportive and appreciative of him. He did a lot at IU and deserves to have a senior night type night instead of just an announcement. Would make Hoosier nation excited for the remainder of the season as well.

That would be really, really smart. It could be toxic in there tomorrow, especially if things don't go well.

I'd say it would be brutal in there, but I'm not sure there will be enough people to qualify it at brutal.

My guess is it looks like Michigan. If it was a weeknight game it would be empty. Student balcony will be barren again for sure though and we'll see hundreds of pictures of it.

I hadn't thought about it this way but I 100% agree.  It would be great if we could part ways on a high note.

Honestly I think the boys come out and blow them out. I've been saying this for a while now.. we're due for one of them 14 3 point games. This could be it. 

I think we get blown out at Purdue and I believe we have a chance at Ohio State. OSU looks like butt from what I've seen. But then again, they did just beat Wisconsin..

Pretty much a genius thought. Wish they handled it this way. Not holding my breathe.

I'm sure Crean is still convincing Glass and Co. of the upcoming tournament run.

Not going to happen but would be nice.

I think / hope we win tomorrow. In fact, I think they win three, maybe four more depending on the BTT draw, to close out the season. For all that's wrong with this team, it almost has to be an us against the world mentality in the locker room.

I don't want Crean to be booed. At the end of the day he's just another guy trying to be great at his job. It's a tough job no doubt. Colin deserves a jovial send off as well.

It's been an 'us against the world' mentality for the past 5 games and they've lost them all.. They've only won 1 road game this year. I think they win Saturday but that's probably it. Depending on the crowd they might not even win that one.

That's a great thought but nothing in Crean's personality or actions over the last 9 years suggest it would happen. He'll coach his last game in the Hall, as the coach of IU, this Saturday. I do hope the crowd can give him an ovation before leaving. Also, really hope that Colin gets a huge ovation for everything he's given this program. Tough kid.

The attitude seems more like a "let's get this over" more than an "is against the world." Watch the team isn't playing well during a particular stretch rather than Bryant flipping out after one good play. If they could have developed that "us against the world" mentality we wouldn't be in this situation.

[Hoosier Guy]

I don't think IU wins but that's not important regarding this game. Crean's farewell and Collin Hartman's senior speech are the two things that matter here

Tomorrow is the last chance for a win other than the first round btt against rutgers. I don't think we make the nit which is fine. At this point I just want it over with.
