Baylor is up so much in this first half I get to watch an old IU recruit play.  Loveday is getting some minutes in the first half because Baylor is up 38

FSU will be fine.  That was never going to be considered a bad loss 

I understand they will be fine.

But if for some reason they play like they have the past two games for the rest of the season, I think most would feel that it would be a bad loss. Because they won’t be winning many more games.

Arkansas Pine-Bluff? That sounds like someone Crean would have scheduled. 

Baylor now up 50-10 on Pine-Bluff with 1 1/2 minutes left in the first half.

SIU is going to compete for the MVC title.  Especially with the injury to green for Northern Iowa.

I was totally unaware that Bellarmine is now division 1.  Also didn't know they played Duke and lost respectably (76-54, down 35-25 at half)

From a fans perspective some could view it that way I guess but from a bracketoligist point of view FSU won’t fall under the NET top 100 so even if they did lose a bunch more games committee wouldn’t consider a road loss to a top 100 team a bad loss

Oh I get that. But I was more meaning for IU’s sake in terms of perspective from fans. At the time it looked like we competed with a top 15 team on the road, when in reality we could have competed with a bubble team on the road. Time will tell.

The official anticipated wrong then stuck with the wrong all after the dude bailed. Wow, that was absolutely brutal.

Your five most recent posts--and these are during and after a solid win:

1. Yet another AP Poll... Yet another Indiana is not in. We are 30th in the AP.
2. Kinda disappointing actually.
3. Why can't Durham make smart passes? He doesn't swing when he should and swings when he shouldn't
4. Hunter needs pulled and sat for the day.
5. Missed out on 33 straight AP polls. Haven't been ranked since the week of January 14-20, 2019. During that week, we lost 51-66 to Nebraska at home and 55-70 at Purdue.

This board is for IU fans, including those who are critical of the team. However, I've seen threads on rival boards that are a holding place for anti-IU comments. We will not have a exclusively anti-IU basketball mantra being splattered all over this board.

I would say those are reasonable. 34 straight exclusions from the AP sucks. It's been 23 months since we've seen a number next to our name. And I hold Durham to a high standard. He's a Senior and 3 year starter. He needs to start playing like it. As of now, I'd say he's the 5th best player and needs to be playing better and making smarter decisions. And Hunter should have been pulled, he was being lazy on defense. He took a post fadeaway on one end and went down and gave up a 3 because of laziness(which is when I posted that). When good things happen, I'll post about it. We moved up 2 spots in the AP so no losses this week, we might be 25th next week.

To be fair John Wooden, there are a lot of us that are sick and tired of every game we play, the board turning it into a loss.  We understand your frustration, but some of us like to actually enjoy the wins.  Please and thank you.
