Two things can be true:

1) That 2nd half was s**t from a butt. That’s on us. 

2) The officiating was so bad that DDV needs to go on a warpath bad enough to get suspended for the MSU game. 

Correct. Officials have one ******* job. Yet every sports league continue to employ those who are incompetent at that one job.

Unfathomable. Just when I see the vision, it shatters for this program.

I wouldn’t play Tucker again…. But unfortunately his dad is the coach. Truly rather see Sisley and the rest of the guys who are coming back return 

Coach is stuck paying and playing his kid. Cant wait for this dude to take off the IU jersey for the last time

Is it that hard to run some action occasionally to get a shooter an open shot.. against northwestern.  Tired of watching Hail Mary ball

Here was when the tide turned: we're up 44-33, play 30 seconds of great defense to forced a missed shot, nobody blocks out Martinelli and he gets an easy putback. 

Well that and on their 3rd attempt with 2 mins to go. Martinelli absolutely grabs dorn with 2 hands and throws him to the floor to go get the rebound. Then they go score. That done it in my book. That well, and we need to go to the freaking basket when shots aren’t falling. Damn!!

[HinnyHoosier]

I'm hoping with Tucker gone DDV can lose the Devries-colored glasses and play the players most suitable for the given situation and match-ups from here on out. 

Wtf even was the offense in the second half?

I’ve never disliked an IU player more. Truly. The promise of what he came here to be vs what we’ve seen is disgusting. 

[WayneFleekHoosier]

My least favorite season in a while. 
 

No preseason hype. No momentum.  Just was never confident we were good. Hard to get excited when you already know we whiffed on the roster build.  Then the season plays out about exactly like you’d expect it. Living on the bubble. And then going to miss. 
 

The burners defending Woodson for 2 seasons was awful too. But those teams at least felt like the could be good for moments.  All 3 seasons virtually identical.  And all of them suck.

Tucker loves shooting logo 3s except for when there's 1.1 seconds left and we're inbounding from the backcourt? He tries to draw a foul with 1.1?

Can't recall the last time I've seen a team piss away a game so badly.

This was a terrible terrible TERRIBLE loss and there are many things to be upset about.  Coach and everyone should be held accountable and we have every right to be upset.

But I dont really get the angst over not shooting a logo 3 with 1 sec left when you are down 4?

Yup

Ah, ****.

See, I'm fine with the Pacers losing cause of the circumstances (was at Gainbridge tonight) but this Hoosiers team losing means no postseason tournament after Chicago.

You've seen this team all year play absolutely awful with him off the floor, so what would be the point of not playing him?  

Sisley only has himself to blame for his benching on this team.

[WayneFleekHoosier]

Letting Martinelli switch onto Enright at the end was coaching malpractice.  Should have had Miles defending him the last 5 minutes.  Or maybe Sisley. Idk.  We don’t really have any good defenders. But not DeVries or Enright.  
 

I’m pissed.

Who were you wanting to play in the second half over Tucker?

[realTomCrean]

I hope Devries follows his fat son to Slovakia and coaches him there

This year is playing out exactly like last. A win over Purdue at home is the only good thing on the resume. No quality non-con wins.
We’ll beat OSU to finish 19-12 but it won’t matter.

Yep Enright had no business being in that position.  I was yelling at the TV on those possessions.
