Bob Huggins and West Virginia has parted ways with Associate Head Coach Larry Harrison.  WVU is 10-6 overall but 0-4 in conference play.

When things go bad....fire the ASSOCIATE Head Coach. It's all his fault haha.

Watching San Francisco/Portland.

fairly certain the refs are in the bag

Edit: Scratch that. As the game has progressed they are just bad.

Love the correction mid-game. You know it's bad when you can tell they're bad and not in the bag.
The games where refs bet on different teams are the best.

Same could be said about the next coaching search at IU

That doesn’t happen in college basketball anymore…except for a year ago when Texas poached Beard from conference and in-state rival Texas Tech.

My first thought as well. Author caveated that with this:

"In the past five years, there have been 32 head coaching jobs open in Power 5 conferences. Only three of those were filled by a sitting Power 5 head coach. And each of those three constituted something of an extraordinary circumstance: Mike White left Florida for Georgia as his job with the Gators became less secure; Beard left Texas Tech for Texas, his alma mater; Buzz Williams left Virginia Tech for Texas A&M, where he worked as an assistant coach and earned a Master’s degree (and which could afford to nearly double his salary)."

I understand the sentiment, but I would say Calipari and Holtmann are realistic (but not Oats).  Texas's pockets are as deep as any.  Cal's run at UK IMO is coming to an end.  Holtmann has plateaud at Ohio State to the point of where the possibility exists.  Oats shouldn't and doubt would leave Alabama.

Cornell on a 17-0 run.  They are up 4 on Yale with 4 min to go 

[WayneFleekHoosier]

Purdue having the season Indiana projected to have.  Indiana having the season Indiana fans hoped Purdue would have.  Lol.  Pain

Time for Illinois/Sparty.   That means watching Illinois fan 15(bottom left of your  tv)   Best part of watching an Illinois home game. Lol

Can’t wait to watch my Screaming Eagles tomorrow night against UT-Martin

Michigan State looks like a classic Izzo job. Lots of tough nonconf games and some losses, but ready for conference play where they’re 4-1. I’m not convinced they’re all that talented, but they play hard and should cruise to another tourney berth.

@Uspshoosier who do you like in the Utah State/Nevada game tonight?  Pretty big one this early in the MWC season.

I'm at the game. Hauser is getting schooled on defense. If it wasn't for his 9 rebounds, I wouldn't be playing him

Both Sincere Harris for Illinois and Malik Hall for MSU out of the game injured.

Harris with a knee—looked like it could be a big deal.

Hall limping on his previously injured foot.

MSU for the past many years—very high floor; kinda low ceiling.

[Loaded Chicken Sandwich]

Wouldn't it be nice if Indiana could play with the toughness and urgency these teams play with? Could probably win some games. 

[Stuhoo]

MSU finishes the game against Illinois with ZERO made three pointers . 0-6 on the night.

Wrong thread.

Every post doesn’t have to be the same griping about IU.
