I call it like I see it.  Last game was fun after big concerns. This game says all those concerns are valid.  
 

our BTB fanbase is happy with another rebuild and a bad year despite top 10 money.  
 

I’ve seen this song and dance a lot.  This season is critical for long term success. Hoping I can tuck my concerns away sometime soon, but I don’t think that’ll be happening in 25-26.

Just curious how you know for a fact we have top 10 money.

The Indiana bench just received a warning. Darian DeVries was irate after a foul was called on Reed Bailey seemingly out of nowhere.

Give them hell DDV!

As much as we appreciate him being a kind of boring, "normal" guy... I think people will be surprised and really enjoy how animated he gets on the sidelines. IUBB has been devoid of passion for close to 10 years. Excited to see some fire on the sidelines

Unlike the Saturday night game, not following this one very closely (much thanks to those updating with posts).

However, it is again extremely heartening to see that we are making adjustments and fighting our ***** off.

And with that being part of this team’s and this staff’s DNA? I am very sure I don’t care what the final score is, as long as we are reasonably competitive with a solid European team.

Are you implying Armand Hill didn't demonstrate enough passion for you on the sideline?

So - 2 games in a row show adjustments (apparently)and strong second half play overcoming significant deficit to take the lead. Yeah, I don’t see the sky falling

Notable that IU is doing this with Conerway on the bench most of the second half after dropping 18 in the first
