So they changed it from that awesome bracket you posted earlier (2024) to a "normal" bracket this year? Boo!

Do you know how many years they utilized the 2024 format?

Last 20 years: 17 conference titles and two natties with the latest one being three years ago.  Literally an incredible run.

One down year and reading the forums and articles it appears the fans are pretty upset with Self and the players despite all the aforementioned success.  Seems like that’s a worse “fishbowl” than the IU job…

Other big programs with budgets are spoiled with success.  Never had to deal with what Indiana goes through.  Yet our fanbase gets slandered. Which is why I try to defend our fanbase (which is generally fantastic) so adamantly.

College basketball fans have gotten comfortable with Indiana being an afterthought and would prefer to keep it that way. The only way to resurrect a program is with a vocal fanbase that demands it. Silencing and slandering our fans is the best way to keep the program irrelevant.

Every now and then, I take a glance at how Archie's best season at Rhode Island is going. Yesterday they scored 56 points in the first half against UMass, an out of body experience for an Archie Miller team, and still managed to lose 91-88. They are now guaranteed to finish below .500 in the A-10.

Indiana St up 31 with 7 min to go.    Tough season after the dream season but finished the Valley 8-12.   Hope they make a run in the MVC tourney

Sparty up 1 with 15:46 to go 

[Uspshoosier 50,619]

Kennesaw State up 4 at Liberty with 4:24 to go
