It made me question the impartiality and integrity of a lot of posters Make it stop. Make it go away forever “Make it go away forever,” he says, bringing it up unprompted 5 years later… No way. You need to ride the wave of this I-told-you-so forever. Just bask in the glory of IU’s underperformance. I hope you never get to stop reveling in our failure. Take pride knowing that only you and those of similar intellect could comprehend the gravity of a loss to IPFW. This might blow your mind, but being a fan of a team has nothing to do with impartiality. And don’t go bringing “integrity” into it as if that has real meaning here. None of this matters, it’s entertainment. Allow fellow Hoosier fans to cheer for the team if they want to, it makes them happy. Hovadipo, HoosierHoopster, go iu bb and 2 others 3 1 1 Quote

It was such a bad loss, I wasn’t even mad. But ……..Bryson Scott was arguably the better player than Blackmon if you take both ends of the court in the comparison. The Scott brothers annihilated Blackmon in their HS game. But man, Blackmon could shoot that rock. Then you had John Konchar. He was a rock star. Sent from my iPad using BtownBanners mobile app Wild to think back at that and see John Konchar getting another deal with the Grizzlies. And the Grizzlies seem to live him. Only other guys still in the NBA from that game are Bryant and OG. Stromboli 1 Quote
LIHoosier Posted September 8, 2022 Posted September 8, 2022 https://iuhoosiers.com/sports/mens-basketball/schedule/2022-23At Rugers and home Nebraska in the tough December stretch is the best we could ask for and seemingly the only conference home game without students is NW. And 4 Saturday conference home games! That might equal our last 3 years.Sent from my SM-S901U using Tapatalk thebigweave, Class of '66 Old Fart, Hovadipo and 2 others 4 1 Quote
Brass Cannon Posted September 8, 2022 Posted September 8, 2022 Haven’t done a deep dive but pretty happy with @ Illinois in January. Gives them less time to gel as a team. Will look over the schedule more but that stood out. I’d say the goal should be 11-2 or better going up to the heart of our big ten schedule. Quote
Hardwood83 Posted September 8, 2022 Posted September 8, 2022 Feb has a brutal stretch- 6 games in 14 days, 4 of them on the road, including @ Mich, @ MSU and @ Purdoo Quote
TheWatShot Posted September 8, 2022 Posted September 8, 2022 Not that I'm terribly upset by this, but I noticed we have 2 exhibition games. I'd bet anything Xavier Johnson is getting a 3 game suspension to start the season and the 2 exhibitions (that count for half a game each) are to make sure he's eligible when we face his namesake on the road.

HoosierHoopster Posted September 8, 2022 Posted September 8, 2022 ITH’s take is that we have a tough road to win the B1G — noting 4 of 7 final road games ag a tough group. They kind of have a point. Definitely like the multiple home games on weekends though, better, packed AH crowds will help Quote

Maybe I'm holding a grudge because the people who gave me so much hell for calling Archie awful so early still have not accepted it. They still refuse to admit that maybe they were wrong in name calling and still say I'm the one who has fault. Maybe I should be a bigger man than those who still call me out even though they were the wrong ones. Even though they can't be bigger. Maybe so. My post was in no way incorrect. I question the impartiality and integrity of all those posters. Moving on... Stromboli 1 Quote
