post game IU/MissValleyState...

Recommended Posts

Love seeing that Kyle Hornsby is back in Bloomington. Crean has never, ever relented on making the former players a huge priority.

 

edit: despite what Dakich spews...

 

I also love it that "Dr. Hornsby" talked to the team---another thing Crean does right.

 

And don't get me started on Dakich---so disappointed in what he has become. He tries to act like he speaks for the former players and he only speaks for a few.  I'll take a Hulls--Oladipo---Zeller--or even a Hornsby opinion over his--- any day of the week. Go get your ratings Dan--but many of us have already turned you off---and you're still not IU's Coach---Crean is...

How about the former players who left under Crean? Do you turn them off or the other former players who still support them? Your disappointed in Dakich and what he has become should pale in comparison to what has become of our school. Let's just pile on ole Dan cause its his job to right the ship for 3.2 a year. At least give the blame where its due. Florida wacked their football coach today. Not because he wasn't a good guy, but beacause he couldn't win enough. He had a four year record of 27-20. Sound familiar? But were in year freaking seven and you still want to give him apass and make excuses. Spurrier said a good AD wants a ten year hire for top coaches. Would you say we have been given a decent return in year seven based on what Indiana has with 5 banners? Florida football has 2 yet they can see when a coach doesn't have it. After 2012 it was obvious Crean doesn't have the chops. Quit blaming former players, alumni or fans; you're sounding like all the other 20 somethings who haven't witnessed it. Wake up the echos.

What is Hornsby practicing?

I am happy for Priller---he took a lot of grief from some but just goes out and plays hard and to the best of his abilities---fun to watch!
 
And let's be honest---he is living our dream of playing for the Cream and Crimson!

I am happy for the Priller too, but not at the expense of our program. He gets a full scholly and can't outplay at least two of our walkons that I saw. It is humourous there were some making fun of my hyper comment about saving our schollies and finding walkons and I witnessed it. Yes, he plays at the best of his abilities, but IU is not where they are. Now, Crean will run off Priller because he can't play at this level. Will that make you feel he's living the dream just as all the project centers before him? Where's the upgrade in talent? Many say Noah was disappointment; give me a break.

So Glass should fire Crean right now? And have one of the assistants take over right now? Just trying to figure out what your point is in a post game thread

Schoosier---I honestly don't have the energy to argue with you tonight.  I am not going to change your mind and you are not going to change mine.  No need for us to completely derail yet another thread.

 

Our team may not be good enough for some people---but I actually like the whole team I've seen so far this year---we have a long way to go---especially with defense and rebounding----but we are going to be competitive and fun to watch develop. I still predict we will outperform preseason expectations--and make it back to the big dance.

 

MVSU is just the first of many wins!

Almost the highest scoring IU game ever.

Hanner still concerns me, he just looked uncertain still. If he had half the ferocity Max has then he would destroy the boards, but you could see times when he didn't challenge players when he should have and could have won.

Probably going to take a while to not be foul shy. I'm sure it's been impressed upon him the value of remaining on the court.

I didn't bring up Dakich but I responded when his name was brought up. Its not his fault where our program is obviously. Its just time for Crean to say its his team, coaching, and recruiting. He won't be fired during the season unless more arrests, but he will after the season just like Muschamp at FL.

Priller is already way more valuable to the team than Hollowell proved to be. But, you'd be a lot happier if JH was still here and TP wasn't, I'd say. We only have 2 walk-ons and they are probably EACH the best walkon we've had in 30 years.

 

 

Noah, kinda was... 

 

11 and 9 and a quitter.

Hanner will get 2/3 of that or better. Hell, Max Might get that...

He is at fault. If Dan Dakich had manned up to Sampson, with the sack he says he has, instead of being afraid to be fired then maybe our ship wouldn't have sank so bad, because players would have been sh*tcanned much sooner and the 19 f's might have been 6 etc etc etc. Double Douche turned a blind eye for his own well-being and somehow people still trust his judgement when it comes to the good of IU.

You are going to be really disappointed when we have a great year!

Vonleh may have quit, but, he is the best rebounder I can remember as a Hoosier fan. In my memory, Bellamy is the only one better on the glass.

He got 9 a game on a team that shot so poorly he got more chances for offensive rebounds than most. NINE rebounds. NINE.

 

1 more than Cody. Was Cody 'almost the best rebounder'?

1 more than Lazy Arse Marco.

1 more than Newt.

1 less than DJ.

 

He had a fair freshman year, but he was a catalyst in us being such a bad team.

Just wanted to say I had a great time at the game. We got there an hour early took our seats EE seats. A young man came up said he was with the University. Thank us for supporting the team and coming to the game, said he had two tickets for the bleachers behind the basket row 11 would we like them. So my first game at the hall I had great seats surround by really nice people. I watched a lil game called basketball at a great venue and my favorite team the Indiana Hoosiers was playing. Just a great experience my brother or I will never forget. Wow we can shoot the ball really like Nick Z's attitude. 

 

That's really cool!  Glad you had that experience!
