Don’t know where our rebounding went today but, I think some of it was just bad luck bounces. My heart definitely swelled a bit when Green hit Freddie with that pass late. 2 guys who have struggled in that situation all year, found each other and made a play when we needed it most. Robert Johnson, lights out. What a fantastic performance. Stay hot now. Oh, and you owe me a new remote for my TV. It’s sticking out of the wall after your free throw attempt. Collin Hartman and Zach won’t show up in the box score, but gave all they had on D. I’m cool with that all day long. Great game Hoosiers, very proud of you today and everyday. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners great post, i want to see Hartman hit a shot so bad. thebigweave, IUBBFan1970, WayneFleekHoosier and 1 other 4 Quote

Big Ten Morgan played passively for the majority of the game. Some of that is trying not to get close to Cook and foul out. (When has an offhand been allowed to keep another player down when you get the rebound, again rhetorical) Great great games by Johnson and Green. I believe Johnson plays better with Green running things. We did enough to get the win. Only 10 turnovers, Newkirk with 3.. Shot lights out from deep, who saw that coming? 9 conference wins. We will be no worse than the 7 seed in the BTT. Need to win at Nebrasketball.

We need to be able to play him at the three. That outback dunk was ridiculous. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app He has a decent shot from mid-range, so maybe he can move it out a bit over the off season. Quote

Would love to see him and phinese in practice against each other next year. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app He's been lights out recently except for a little lapse against Illinois. That pass he made to Freddie late was amazing. southsidehoosier and CSP 2 Quote
Ranger78 Posted February 18, 2018 Posted February 18, 2018 I’ve watched a lot of college basketball and nobody can tell me we’re not playing top 30 good. Unfortunately our stupid early loses, will kill us. IU can beat anyone currently in CBB on a neutral court. Not any great teams ...

WayneFleekHoosier Posted February 18, 2018 Posted February 18, 2018 Love how we are playing and competing lately. We don't really have the horses but we are finding a way.Devonte finally turning into the guy i bragged him up to be. Morgan is that dude. Loved that dunk and reaction near end.

I thought he might turn out to be a head case and transfer after the season but he's clearly buying into Archie s system. He'll be a big time player for us the next couple years.

I know expectations for Iowa are never that high, but he is sucks as a coach... Agree. Who in the B1G is more talented than Iowa? Mich St for sure and.........I'm not sure anyone else is. They've got a lot of very solid players but zero chemistry. Something wrong there- and sadly I think we all qualify as experts at recognizing talented teams that under-perform, right? Quote
ThompsonHoosier Posted February 18, 2018 Posted February 18, 2018 Something that popped in my head after today's game. Would we rather sneak into the NCAA tournament and lose maybe in the second round, or would we rather make a deep run in the NIT? Sent from my Pixel using BtownBanners mobile app IUBBFan1970 1 Quote

Sent from my Pixel using BtownBanners mobile app I'll probably get crap for this, but I'd rather make a run in the NIT with this team. We're (hopefully) not going to be in this position very often, so I'd like to make a run in it when given the opportunity. I also have this weird appreciation for the unusual twilight-atmosphere that exists in non-NCAA postseason basketball games. Also, it would be funny as hell if Purdue's season ends in mid-March and we're still playing games two weeks later. jonz44, CR3AMnCR1MS0N, gfunk69 and 4 others 7 Quote
