At one point I looked at my partner and said "I'm not the only one who thinks this coach is a whiny little b***h am I?" The answer was a resounding no.

He's "Izzo, Light"

I'm sure it's already been discussed in this thread, but how epic was Geronimo's block where he just grabbed the ball out of the air?

He was like I'll take that. I believe he hit a 3 right after doing it also.

Upon replay, it looked like he was expecting the ball to be higher and had to reach down slightly for it. That was about as thoroughly blocked as a shot could be.

Lest we forget Twinkle Toes TJD taking a epic stroll down the lane for 2

Amazing he didn’t get called for that. Well take it!

Ha yeah it looked like a travel live and then the replay erased any doubt.

Sounds like the NCAA is dropping the ball all the way around!

Including the Pizza Hut free give away Wilson official NCAA basketball.

They're resting on their laurels after finally giving LSU their notice of allegations.

IUBB social media touting this, as they always do with this sort of thing. I get it, but it kinda feels ominous, like the committee is going to start going out of its way to pick the biggest names possible for the First Four regardless of whether the teams deserved better. Since we never get the respect we deserve to begin with, this gives me a sinking feeling we're an easy mark in that regard. Probably won't be the last time we see IU in a play-in game.

Start playing real teams out of conference and finish above .500 in conference and we won't have to worry about it.

Its year one. Did you expect a super hard non-SOS??? Comment is a bit prude

Pretty much. It’s only a concern going forward if we put ourselves in this position again. I can’t be mad about being in the play-in game. We finished 9th in the conference, had a losing conference record, and played a crappy non-conference schedule. Someone’s gotta play in it, and we didn’t do anything to show the committee it shouldn’t have been us.

I'm talking about future seasons. If we play harder schedules and win more conference games, we shouldn't be anywhere near the play-in games. If we are, we've either scheduled too weak or we simply haven't won enough games. A 25+ win IU team isn't getting sent to Dayton.

This is what Rex Chapman was saying last night which is true, CBB is better when Indiana is good. We draw a crowd, more people watch.

Maybe that’s why nobody could shoot from the IU team.  That’s the primary reason why we only hit two 3’s!  Wink, wink.  Sorry, I wished I knew how to insert a wink emoji

Yep.
And although Rex played for UK he was really an IU homer  last night. We won a natty when Rex was in college and he obviously admired our program.

The point is they fixed it so we would be in the First Four for viewership and they’re not even trying to hide it. No one will ever convince me we don’t swap with Michigan…don’t care about the SOS one iota in that regard. 

It’s all about the Benjamins.
