Going to be a long season

[00 parrish 5]

I predict IU will be last in the BIG TEN anyone else have that feeling?

[cthurston 27]

I'm leaning in that direction. Definitely not the middle the pack as projected. We won't win many conference games playing no D and living and dying by the 3.

[bleedhoosier 3,627]

Maybe they were right when they projected 9th. This is our teams identity.. matador defense

[Hovadipo 55,198]

No. One word. Rutgers.

[Geometry Hoosier 1,151]

No. One word. Rutgers.

Ah shoot we can lose to Rutgers too :-)

[ou812dude 3,326]

the thing about the B1G, having 14 teams...and the scheduling, is that the worst team doesn't always finish last...

so it's very possible with IU's schedule strength, in conference, to finish dead last...

[00 parrish 5]

The way they are playing I don't know. They definitely will not be 9th

[WindyCitySource 600]

Northwestern, Penn State and Rutgers will 100% finish below Indiana. Beyond that... I'm not sure.

 

The shooters on this team are good enough to upset anyone on any night. Unfortunately, they are just as likely (if not more so) to get upset like they did tonight.

 

Long season, indeed.

I kind of expected that going into the year

 

we lost home games to Northwestern, Nebraska and Penn St last year. With Noah Vonleh on our roster

 

this is going to hurt

There's a difference between being mad after a loss and completely dogging your team. I'm sick of Crean. I'm sick of Hanner. I'm sick of the excuses. But I'm not going to crap on the season because I'm mad. No, I don't think we will be last in the B1G. Go Hoosiers and no one else

Get a grip----we are not going to be last in the Big Ten!

 

We are all disappointed but this is not the first time and it won't be the last that we ---or other Big Ten schools--- get upset by a lesser school (EWU is pretty good by the way).

 

We look like a middle of the pack team to me---and we will soon see if we improve and go up ---or don't and fall further.

 

Based on what I have seen so far---we are nowhere close to Penn State or Rutgers to name a few.

[rebelhoosier848891 9,588]

I will say that I scoffed at the thought of IU being 9th or 10th in the conference when that was predicted---but we are playing RIGHT NOW---like that may be a real possibility.  I hope we get that turned around.

 

As disappointing as it is----one loss is not the end of the world Hoosier Nation.

I will always back the Hoosiers. I am just very disappointed in how this program is going down hill. It used to be one of the elite now we can't even make to the NIT . With no big men to speak of IU will get dominated in the B1G TEN. Hanner is not a D1 starter he is at best a back up. I just want to see the program respected again that is all.
We shouldn't get beat by teams from the BIG SKY conference.
Always a Hoosier

No worries, we all get heated after a loss. A lot of posters just don't like seeing threads like this after a loss. It's all good, there's no excuse losing to Eastern Washington. In year one or two of the Crean Era, this type of loss in acceptable, but not now. It does stink to see where IU is at. 

 

It will change though, just have to give it another year........ hopefully lol.

[00 parrish 5]

Boy I hope so lol

I agree with most of what you say but when did we start defining ourselves by statements such as...we're not as bad as Penn State or Rutgers? Good help us!

[OliviaPope40 6,458]

I sometimes wonder some what ifs for this team.

[jmsgws 2,181]

The title for the thread is wrong.  It will not be a long season.  It will more than likely be a short season.  It will just feel like it is lasting forever.

[yogisballin 2,297]

My question is, why wasn't this thread started before we lost last nite? It's been obvious all along

Idk, why didn't you start it while we were 4-0? That's weird, seemed like a perfect time to start this thread.
