Anyone that knows this program, knows the most likely scenario this week. 

- We beat NW or PSU and look good doing so. 

- There will be excitement that follows the next 24 hours about the possibility of beating Purdue and making the NCAA Tournament. 

- We proceed to lose to Purdue (and it probably won't be close).

100000%

the one positive from this post is that you EG as your profile picture lol....

No seriously...you are not far off from your time line you have there. Although looking at our draw we have the easiest path to make a good run. Northwestern wont be a slouch, and Purdue....is Purdue.

That's right...and who can ever forgot Blake Hofarber hitting the buzzer beater against us in the BTT falling down...or Luke Recker's buzzer beater.

So true.  The only alternative outcome is we crap the bed in our first game.

The BTT stinks in my book.

- IU almost always plays bad.  Pretty annoying after a quarter century of struggles.

- The atmosphere for all the games is generally mediocre since each team only had a small number of fans there

- No one really cares about winning this thing

- By the time the final rolls around, everyone is already fixated on Selection Sunday

I'd be happy to see it go.  Heck, expand the tournament to 128 -- that gets rid of the BTT and IU could actually make the big dance.  Maybe that's what we need.  (just kidding)

Wonder if Dusty had to mow RMK's lawn??? 

 

 

Dusty was a Assistant at Florida before he became a head couch? I bet RMK had the guys on the bottom of the totem pole mowing his yard.

Dusty was a manager for four years under Knight, then I think he spent 2-3 years working in various roles under him at IU -- video coordinator, administrative assistant, etc.

Correct on those two jobs.

Agree with all this, aside from expanding to 128.

I seriously doubt that we win the first game.
