Iowa FINALLY called for a foul in the second half......after 15 minutes and 20 seconds.

Fran complains.

[RaceToTheTop 27,834]

Not sure I've seen a homerism this bad in a long time.....even in the Big Ten.

[RaceToTheTop 27,834]

IU should throw some zone at Oregon.....Iowa has went zone the second half and it's worked.

[RaceToTheTop 27,834]

Huge review.....Oregon banked in a three as the shot clock expires.  Called a three on the floor.  Hard to tell if it's in his fingertips,......I think it's off his fingers.  There certainly isn't enough evidence to overturn.....but Big Ten does tend to Big Ten.

And the fired cop referee is reffing, so let's see.

[RaceToTheTop 27,834]

OMG....they waved it off.

There is no ******* way.

[RaceToTheTop 27,834]

Hummel calling the refs out.

[RaceToTheTop 27,834]

Oregon up 80-76, 22 seconds left, Iowa ball.

[RaceToTheTop 27,834]

80-78 Oregon, 13.6 seconds left, Oregon ball.  Unless there is a turnover, Iowa will foul and Oregon will have a one-and-one.

[RaceToTheTop 27,834]

Oregon turns it over.  Jesus.

[RaceToTheTop 27,834]

Iowa will have it with about 12 seconds left down 2.

[RaceToTheTop 27,834]

Dix misses a layup, ball goes out of bounds,,,,ruled off Oregon but under review.

The way they've been reffing, you know they will keep it with Iowa.

[RaceToTheTop 27,834]

Iowa ball, 4.8 seconds.

[RaceToTheTop 27,834]

Oregon blocks Dix's three pointer and then a catch and shoot by Bruan misses.  Oregon wins.

With 1.5 seconds left before Mizzou upsets Alabama Dennis Gates stops the game, gets on the PA mic, and tells students not to rush the court.

I thought that coaches on the PA was verboten. I remember back in the day when Knight used to do that… but didn’t the NCAA issue orders to not allow that? T him up.

Saved Mizzou a $500,000 fine.

I don’t know if anyone had seen Dakich’s tweet about Bates from last year, but I hadn’t until this. If he genuinely thought Bates was the problem there last year he didn’t watch them 1 single time. And good on Gates for clapping back on that creep.

Dennis Gates was a first team academic all-American at Cal Berkeley who got his degree in three years. I’m pretty sure he’s smart enough to handle Dakich.

The question isn’t whether he’s good enough for IU, but I do question how some IU fans question if he is. It’s sad that some school that’s not Indiana will likely have him as their head coach next year. Hopefully if the two pie in the sky candidates don’t happen, Dolson is smart enough to take a long hard look at a guy like this. interestingly, he would cost IU more to bring here than Dusty May -makes more currently and has a bigger buyout .

But read the original Tweet -- Dakich hasn't been wrong in 20 years! Just ask him!

I never go out of my way to listen to or read anything Dakich puts out. But I see enough here to consider him an embarrassment to the program. He’s probably the leader in the clubhouse for former players who’ve gotten more from the program than given back to it. 
 

Also, Tamar Bates is a senior 2/combo guard averaging 13ppg on 50/40/93 shooting. Sounds like the type of guy IU was trying to bring in this offseason.
