This team is so flawed.  I'd be willing to bet we lose the next 2 and the big 10 tourney opener

Purdue wants to hurt us…..

How ******* ridiculous.  This is,  however, the IU basketball we've all grown accustomed to. 

We are 18-10, 9-9 in conference with a first year coach AND we just got a Q2 road win by 5 in a game we were favored by 3.5.

Yes, it got weird and out of hand, and Minny can shoot it.  But all in all it was a good day.

Then do it.  Draftkings is open.

Go bet it then. Not really sure why you are telling all of us 

Remember when Trayce was an all American?

Not impressed with the final 9 minutes but I’m also not sure what you do when they are nailing 3s like that. Majority there was nothing else the defender could do but foul.

When Minnesota isn't hitting shots:

"IU is so lucky!"

When Minnesota hits at a ridiculous pace:

"IU is so bad!"

A win is a win.  Just be happy, people.

Why? This is a message board where we critique our play. “Just be happy” after we blow a 27 point lead with 6 minutes left? Come on, man. People are allowed to see disturbing trends game after game, even in the wins. I’m looking to the future and with this staff and I’m seeing concerns.

Cool.   Which side of the ledger is this one on?

Like I said, feels like a loss.

What does that have to do with you betting IU will lose their next 3?

I was just saying you should go do it. Saying it on here doesn’t mean much

There were two possible results tonight.  I will never complain about the right one occurring.

The last 8 minutes kind of goes hand in hand with having a bad program culture. We don't have guys who want to come in and keep pouring it on. We don't have closers. We don't have people who take charge when the other team gets momentum. We just have a bunch of "cool dudes" playing hoops, without any sense of direction.

Honestly, when wins feel like losses I'm sure why you would want to watch a game.

[Ryno6284]

If we all want to be realistic, we had no business winning at the barn!  (We struggle there.)  We had a huge lead and still won the game.  Did anybody think Minny was tucking tail on Senior night?  Maybe we did learn something from the Wisky loss earlier in the season?  F**K IT, we WON THE GAME!

Never does, outside of going only to the opposing head coach sometimes. Not sure why, but I think it’s hilarious that he typically waves and takes off lol. 

Another NBA thing.

Yep.  Don't tell a story....just do it.

[Hillsdale87]

Bad job of closing it out, but that was an incredible hot streak by Minnesota. 8 3s in the last 7 minutes, most of them heavily contested. I don't think it's a massive indictment of the team, and I'm happy we walked away with the win

I’m just glad we’re finally getting points out of our backcourt.

First game against the gophers TJD didn’t get a double double

We did exactly what you are hoping for against Maryland earlier this week.

Not today though!

Did Woody shake hands?

Yes, the radio, (Gopher radio, no Fisch,) said they both waved and then did finally shake.
