Why the **** did we fire Tom Crean. Too many S16s? Too many B1G championships? 

[reconmkd]

Waited most of my life to become a season ticket holder, this is year 2, and I’m about ready to give up spending the money. If I made more money maybe I wouldn’t feel this way but nearly $2k a year is not fun to spend with products like this!

Nothing really changed. Other teams adjusted and we didn’t

Yet the sunshine pumpers told us how great of a hire and roster we got.  Then told us how wonderful of an offense it was to jack up 30 footers.  
Our sunshine pumpers have allowed us to hire and keep Archie and Woody.  I blame them as much as anything for where we are now

I don’t blame them. They might not know ball, but I don’t blame them. Our admin has goofed everything up you can goof up. Since Knights firing. But DeVries not knowing this roster didn’t stack up is the biggest concern. He clearly wanted to get off on the right foot, then built this roster.

But when he interviews, he just talks about making the tournament as the goal. When that’s your goal, you’re dancing on the edge.

But you get to watch IU beat Bethune Cookman!

We wanted consistency. So we hired people who would leave us consistently bad

The roles are reversed; now you have to pay for mens BB tix in order to get in the door for football tix.

Gone, gone, and gone for the first three. This team is going to be nearly unrecognizable for the second year in a row. If Devries fails to build a strong roster for the second year in a row, he’s likely not even seeing three years. 

He will see 3 years imo. Need to find that balance of high school prospects and portal vets.

Our competition improved.  Better athletes that can run us off what we want to do.

[theriverpilot]

Smdh. I’ve never seen that off a layup attempt before. Lol. What a mess

Yep we have a roster that’s not versatile. It can do a few things.  So teams are taking that away

This is not 5 years ago.  You don’t need 3 years to know if a coach is a failure 

[Asha’man]

Where I think the staff made an error was focusing on mid major portal transfers. You can get a couple of those guys but you still need high D1 athletes to compete. 

[LamarCheeks]

Every flippin' shot they take, we look like our feet are nailed to the floor. 

Why are we so damn slow to the ball. 

[WayneFleekHoosier]

Awful loss.

Buyouts. He will get 3 years.
