Loved the out of bounds play where he threw it off Smith's back. Didn't love the result: he had a wide open layup and got rejected by the rim. Smith then proceeds to hit a fastbreak 3. I've been saying the past two years that Braden Smith has 9 lives, and that was yet another example. It was a five point swing that put Purdue back in front after a huge run by the Illini.

Wait til you hear what the in-conference record is for the entire league.

My feed this morning is dominated by PU fans bitching about the T on Colvin. I swear, he chinned himself with no one underneath him. Doesn’t get easier than that. And their argument was he was looking around. Bwahahaha.

It's noon, LET THE GAMES BEGIN!

Disappointed IU Indy is done for the year, but we hadn't won ten games since 2019 and are finally building an actual gym.  That's celebration.

I can't think of a fanbase that deserves a few down years more than that one. Just crazy how they think they run the league now and anyone who beats them either got lucky or cheated somehow. Unfortunately, they'll return nearly everyone next year and be highly ranked again. Such is life.

Free basketball in Milwaukee. 

St. John's ties it at 75 with 10.7 second to go. 

Marquette's final possession was godawful, so we'll go another 5 minutes. 

[Hoosierfan1901 8,120]

Marquette just blew that game 

[LamarCheeks 21,681]

Crazy finish. 

St. John's misses a 3 with about 5 seconds left.

Marquette gets rebound.

St. John's kid knocks it away, teammate gathers it and passes it underneath for a point-blank winner at the buzzer. 

Slick Rick and the Red Storm wins 86-84 in OT.

As a graduate of IUPUI, my master's says IU, but most of my classes were in Indianapolis, I really wanted IUPUI to be Indianapolis University. I thought it was a travesty that that Indiana Central was allowed to have that name. It should have been a public university not a private one. Ok, I'm done with the rant.

Wisconsin in trouble late, down 7 at home to Penn State with 2 1/2 minutes left.

[cbp4iu 2,269]

Shout out to Penn state for having a reasonable net and should stay a Quad 1

Not a good look from the Orange Krush last night

It seems like every big SEC game I watch is the new best game I’ve seen all season. 

[Josh 13,155]

It makes me so happy to see Coleman Hawkins lose and miss the tournament.  What's the tea on him leaving a good team for a crap one?  Purely money?  I'd have to think he was in line for plenty of minutes at Illannoy

Avery Johnson on the call for the MVC semifinals so that automatically gets moved to a muted tv
