Cronin blamed the fans for his players going 5/15 on free throws in the second half lol. I'll be done if we hire that guy. 

Disagree. If we hire Cronin you will not be done. You’re not done with Mike Woodson as coach.

Illini are dealing with the flu.

But it does seem like a recipe for disaster if you ask me.  He’s a solid enough coach.  Maybe a great coach. But he’s borderline losing his mind over the past 2 seasons and I don’t think coaching at Indiana will fix his problems.

So they had no problem getting body-to-body with them and breathing in their faces the whole game but the hand shake line would've been too much? Umm, ok.

I think hand shake lines are kind of dumb and pointless so them not doing one doesn't bother me at all. I never liked them when I was in sports. It was just everyone going through the motions so not really meaningful. These always look pretty much the same. I'm not going to buy that excuse, though.

I've sat through 5 IU coaches who either got fired or were forced out. This next hire needs to excite me. Mick Cronin and his lack of postseason success doesn't excite me.

Been mentioned how Greg Gard changed his philosophy for the 24-25 season.

I'm not sure it's really that deep. Undy and Gard seemed cordial enough. I watched Underwood's presser after the game when he talked about it and he seemed to be just avoiding any unnecessary contact between the teams.

Quit it. You will be right here complaining about the next coach.

Cronin has always been like that. He’s an old school guy from Cincinnati who fought for everything he has and came up under Huggins.

I mean yea you make a good point about them just rubbing all over each other but it was nothing more than Illinois battling flu.

Every time I see "Charlotte" I think "Cornbread."

[Uspshoosier 49,321]

Tyler Lundblade is 30/46 from 3 in his last 4 games for Belmont.   Belmont automatically gets on a TV moving forward just to see this guy shoot it.   My guess his he won’t be playing for Belmont next year

49% for the season on almost 7 attempts a game and 95% from the line. Yeah, you might be right about that one. They had Ja’Kobi Gillespie, Malik Dia and a kid who went to UNC whose name I’m spacing there last year. Casey Alexander is gonna have  a spectacular recruiting pitch for mid-major types.
