Yes, that Wojo move was one of the best thing's I've heard in awhile. If I am correct they have played pretty well since also.

Iowa freshman Dale Jones out for the season; needs knee surgery.

Minnesota 47 game home non conf win streak is gonzooooo lost to South Dakota 85-81

Just like to see this place return to a forum where all opinions are welcome and not antagonize others.  

 

Did you see where Wojo had his players were basic gym shorts and white t-shirts for practice after getting blown out by Iowa?  It seemed to work really well and they rebounded with a solid win over LSU.

 

A cream/crimson tie dyed helmet might be the next big thing for IUFB!

IUFB is going to have to start thinking quick. If they intend to keep having more helmets than Kevin Wilson has Big Ten wins they'll have to pick up the pace on helmets next year....

If Brad Stevens comes to IU I don't care if they wear flip flops as long as they play defense.

We could wear flip flops now and not be much worse on defense.  I'm not sure we'd be much worse if we were blindfolded.

Alll the talk about Maryland and Indiana preseason but don't look now---Michigan State is playing the best basketball in the Big Ten!

 

And Purdue is right behind them.

 

Good to see our Hoosiers bounce back tonight.

Honestly I think Michigan State is playing the best ball in the country not just the conference.

Not surprised. Izzo and Painter(when he has talent) are pretty darn good coaches.

certain players leave the program( Ronnie Johnson) and ever since Purdue has been better. Good for painter recognizing certain players were not buying in and changing the culture

This ref in the VCU/FSU game is struggling.  It looks like he is determining to call a foul before the player leaves his feet for a contested layup.

[Uspshoosier 50,847]

Melvin Johnson is in a zone for vcu. He is single handily keeping this game close Vcu still loses but Johnson hit 7 threes in the second half

Baylor nips Vandy in the last seconds in a close one.  Vandy is another good team with a couple of losses now. Parity is the name of the game in college basketball so far this year.

vandy still has to play Dayton and Purdue. Tough non conference schedule. No shame in losing a true road game to a top 25 team with a chance to win at the end

[rebelhoosier848891 9,588]

Vandy will be stronger for it in the long run---good game 69-67.

 

North Carolina rolled Davidson too.  I always check on Theo Pinson. He had 6 points today--he's never really caught fire at Carolina like I thought he would.

I just took a look at UK's non-con schedule. I thought they were playing UNC every year now, but they would have played at UNC this year and that game conveniently disappeared. I'm glad they lost the other night because those bastards aren't playing another road game until January. 

 

 

 

Seriously, anyone who schedules them and expects anything but a game in Rupp and a neutral site return has a head full of rocks. Screw them. 

[rebelhoosier848891 9,588]

Agree Wat!  They sure do a lot to MAKE SURE they have a great record every year.  Not to mention how weak their conference normally is compared to others.  I think it hurts them in the tourney!

[Uspshoosier 50,847]

Oklahoma vs Villanova should be a good game tonight.

looks like I was wrong Oklahoma just smashed Villanova by over 20

I didn't watch the game but saw a tweet that Villanova was only 4 of 32 from 3's, and OK was 14 of 26.
