My Boy Yogi

[TomPritchard25 526]

You cannot help but to love Yogi. I love winners, and you can tell that is exactly what he is. He plays his best when the pressure is on, leads his team, and takes it all personal.

I'm not sure if it was sweat or a tear in his eyes after Crean hugged him?¿ I like the tear idea, so I'll stick with that.

IMO will go down as the most underrated/under appreciated indiana basketball player of all time.

ha, I wondered the same and reacted exactly the same. I'm sticking with the tear theory too. Haha

Not if he hangs a banner.

I hope he sticks around one more year. I wonder how he stands on all-time points, assists, & Minutes played.

He will be here. I love Yogi, but he's definitely not ready for the NBA.

Hova brought up Yogi, in terms of being one of the greatest point guards of all time( at IU) and I believe that he is...

but the other point guard greats that have been brought up that he is compared to, have either won it all, or have been to the final four...

will Yogi stand the test of time as an all time great if his team doesn't go to the Final Four?

Yogi is at a disposition... RMK Isnt here... We will get there if he can shoot 80% from 3 & have 5+ assists :) this year. Next year, I believe (with yogi) it'll be OUR time

What a special player! Physical and mental growth is beautiful to see. Boy I hope he's back for one more ride...

There is honestly no way Yogi goes anywhere after this year. He is just not ready for the NBA at this moment. Barring use going all the way this year, he will definitely be back next year

The recruitment of Hyron Edwards picking up and scouts being impressed suggests it's a possibility

He hung a banner... and cut down some nets!

Probably has an S16 ring too...

I can't see Yogi starting on an NBA team but man he would be a solid backup point.  Pressure D is extremely important for a backup PG, Yogi has that.  Get TB on campus and have Yogi convince him he needs a big for a FF run next year. 

[crazywillie 192]

I wish we could have given him a little more help last night. He pit the hoosiers on his back and damn near carried us to the win. Would have loved to see him hit that game winner.

[Walking Boot of Doom 18,170]

The kid is incredible. Definition of clutch. More times than not, he hits that three for the win. He is a winner, and we just need to put competent individuals around him. See, difference between 2013-2014 and 2014-2015

[Alford Bailey 12,393]

Have you noticed how hard and smart Yogi plays on the defensive side? Usually guarding the other teams best player who is taller and stronger. Nothing pisses me off more than to watch Yogi give 110% every defensive possession only to watch the other four guys give up any easy bucket.

[djsalway 4,161]

There is nothing I don't like about Yogi. After all the maturity he has shown, it'll be hard to keep him out of my top 5 favorite Hoosiers of all time, just based on his heart and effort.

I think that's a result of being on teams that have struggled to play top flight basketball.

If this team makes a run in the tourney, comes back as a contender and delivers next season that perception will change.

[Vauxhall and IU 317]

I didn't think it was possible for me to have any more respect for Yogi than I already did, but last night proved me wrong. That killer instinct, how obvious it is that he HATES to lose - I don't care if he never gets past the S16, he's already earned his place in IUBB history. An extraordinary young man.

 

I could see how broken up he was about missing that last shot, but it immediately reminded me of this:
