IU v. Wisco Game Thread 2/3 7pm on ESPN

[schoosier 3,545]

I personally felt the only reason they got it to fourteen was because Wisky got complacent and slacked off. Not to be a downer

Yes, Bo took his foot of Creans neck and only hung 90 on him. Good thing he got to play a lot of subs and his point guard didn't play; we may have had a new Kohl record. Bo knows high scoring offense against a Crean coached Indiana team.

I get upset losing to Wisky more than any team I think. Why? Because its basic fundamental basketball. Just basic fundamentals that we all learned in elementary. And these basic fundamentals make us look bad virtually every time we play them.

Anybody on here remember  when Wisconsin was 2 wins a year?

I sure do.

Complete role reversal..Not only do they own us they look and play like we used to.

[schoosier 3,545]

I sure do.

Me too. They always played hard yet we always won. It still hurts to be the laughingstock of college basketball when I remember being the most feared team every year. Only one way to change this trajectory.

[Alford Bailey 12,444]

I agree. Its what we've come to expect from a Crean coached team. Just think of all the cupcakes Wisconsin played prior to conference play, only one allowed more points than our 3.5 million $ coached team. Now that's what I call earning your check. I submit a $50,000 a year high school Indiana coach would do a much better job than Crean. Hell, what do some of these low D1 coaches make per year. Do you think Crean earns his paycheck supported by your tax $ if you live in Indiana. Just another burr in the saddle.

I can think of a handful of Indiana HS coaches who I love to see what they could do with these guys just for the fun of it.

I invest so much time into this program and I'm just asking for some winning basketball ! That's all. Don't feel like I'm asking for much

Yep.

Watching Florida gives me hope there is a right coach for Indiana. You just have to go out and get him and leave Glass home rubbing Crean's feet. I really think Donovan to Indiana could happen. See, I have faith in our program afterall.

What's Donovan's buyout?

[Alford Bailey 12,444]

Bright spot.....we won the boards again. See, I can be positive! :no:

[jonz44 810]

No one is not upset about losing like this.

Not sure that upset would define how I feel. Apathetic? Maybe. Disgusted? Definitely!

Smh

Smh

Oh come on that commercial was morbid. Might as well make it funny.

[Alford Bailey 12,444]

This a poor showing... Had to change the channel, not going to risk 14 days without a cigarette over crappy defense and bad jump shots, I may have finally accepted Crean has no idea how to maximize talent, and we need to cut the cord sooner rather than later

DO NOT LET THIS TEAM PUT YOU BACK ON SMOKES!

[GloryDays 5,988]

Is there another d1 coach who constantly pulls guys who score out of the game?

 That's one of my pet peeves with Crean.It seems to totally kill momentum.

Don't know that it hurt us as bad tonight anywhere near as bad as the fact we have a roster built for a 6'4'' and under league with the only size we have on the bench.

We'll probably beat Mich because the match ups aren't as extreme and we're home.Maryland's probably salivating right now.

They should be salivating at the thought of another chance after we kicked their ass in Indiana.

Hopefully Blackmon is a go for Michigan.

So are we allowed to complain about this garbage basketball that's being played the last 4 games if we end up losing to Michigan at home?

The only comfort I have here is that oddly enough Crean knows Belien ball..

Dakich calling a spade a spade.. I wish he would just say it. Crean is a garbage sub coach. It is t just Hartman. These dudes come out at set times every game no matter how they are playing. I'd be irate too if I was Williams. It's like this impossible one way chasm exists between the scorers table and the bench. There is no possible way u can come back to the bench so go ahead and pull the guy whose confidence is through the roof.

Good for Z getting his tonight

Refs...same crap every year in wisconsin

And that garbage press after u are down 30. There is a cosmic force that won't allow it to be played during a winnable game. Nope, we have to watch a team get down by 20 and 30 and "Tom implore his team to play with energy". That's juvenile coaching.

And no I'm not surprised about losing to Wisky. I'm surprised how bad this team has played recently. Has nothing to do with Perea. Don't kid yourself, we didn't claw back into this game with great effort. Wisky turned their defense nearly off for that stretch while we hit some shots.
