The reason the Northwestern game deflated everyone on here and the coaches and players was because all they really had to do was win that game against a lower team and they are sitting pretty heading into the conference tourney.   That loss dropped their WAB from 42 to 48 

It was a terrible loss!

I know it doesn't matter in this game, but I wish we would learn to take a little time off the clock before forcing up a shot when we have a decent lead.

Problem is our offense sputters greatly when we stay stagnant and do nothing till under 10.

[RoadRage]

Looks like I only missed the Gophers score by about 30!

Terrible loss for fans however for a team resume it’s only a Q2 loss which is something you can over come.   TCU is going to make the tourney and early on they had losses at home to New Orleans (Q4), Notre dame at home (Q3) and at Utah and team with a net over 100.  IU worse loss is to Northwestern (71 last I looked).  Definitely agree a terrible loss for fans  

[JF87]

I'm probably wrong, but it felt like Archie never won on senior night.

Nice little segment of the seniors coming off the floor. Makes you think, think about the years past coaches and players….we had several players get in trouble off the court and a few personalities that were crappy. 
 

Not this team. This is probably one the cleaniest crews we’ve had in some time, and most likable kids we’ve had the pleasure of putting on the uniform, no bad talk on Twitter,  no putting down the fan base during a speech, no lazy play . Just wore the IU uniform with pride and actually hustled their tails off, and represented the university well! Go IU!

Conerway gave the coaches the blow-by when he came out.  All the other seniors hugged the coaches.  I had a feeling he had something going on with coaches/teammates since December.

Close. 3 out of his 4 seasons he lost on senior night. His second year, with Romeo Langford, he beat Rutgers. That team ended the season with a home loss to Wichita State in the NIT.

And it sounded like the fans made up with Bailey......these guys have a good chance to beat OSU!

He was the happy, always a smile on his face till about that time.  I wonder if that had to do with his playing time getting cut in the last several weeks.

If they play defense like they did tonight, they should beat them.

[HoosierHoopster]

Love Alexis having a big night

But Dorn hitting 3-8 from the arc is encouraging. We’ve badly miss the third outside shooting threat during the losing streak.

Now just maybe they take this level of play on the road and beat OSU and then maybe dancing gets back in the picture 

[IUHoosier5]

Take this exact game plan to OH and go win a big one.

I was as frustrated as most fans with Bailey's play this year.  The frustration probably had more to do with the team results that I and others directed at him.  To his credit, Bailey plays with effort.  I hope he and the other seniors consider themselves Hoosiers and enjoyed representing IU.

After Leal and Galloway tried to dress down the fanbase 2 years ago, I'm fine to see this change. The whole Woodson s#!t show from that time frame left a bad taste, and ruined the fun for everyone. Mediocre Mike, this one's on you. #goodriddance

Yeah, I'll be able to let it go someday. Maybe.

In fairness to Galloway, that wasn't on him. He gave a typical senior day speech.

Leal was the one who told fans to "chill" because they were going to "run it back" after that awful season. Then Woodson with his "true fans" nonsense.

[Shooter]

That performance was much needed. Now the season basically comes down to one game at Ohio State.

[Stuhoo]

Conerway has completely checked out.

The other seniors loved on all the coaches, but they all REALLY loved on Kenny J. Coach Kenny gets maxed out luv!!

It’s like football all over again. Fernando still enrolled? Becker?

[Whoozhers]

It’s gotta be hard for Sisley not performing on the floor. As bad as it’s been for him he is the biggest cheerleader on the bench.

Admirable. If he can transfer the bench energy to floor….. We’d be a much better team.

Hes a good vato. Hope he can put it all together.

GO TRENT!

GO HOOSIERS!

[LIHoosier]

Went up just one spot in KP (43 to 42) but gained 18 spots on defense (71 to 53) from just this one game.
