TheWatShot Posted November 24, 2015 Posted November 24, 2015 Hopefully we score more points than we give up. Quote
WayneFleekHoosier Posted November 24, 2015 Posted November 24, 2015 Rinse and repeat. Going to be the same. We will win, of this, I'm sure. They will be hungry and actually focused on basketball. St. John's is awful. rodmilbourn 1 Quote
BlueDevil Posted November 24, 2015 Posted November 24, 2015 Any sort of defense played should blow these bums out of the water. Time to salvage a trip and go 2-1. ALASKA HOOSIER, Bobman1 and IU Hoosier41 3 Quote
Feathery Posted November 24, 2015 Posted November 24, 2015 St Johns is absolutely terrible. There is no chance we lose this game. If by some miracle we do, then we are way worse than anyone thought... WayneFleekHoosier 1 Quote
LIHoosier Posted November 24, 2015 Posted November 24, 2015 I'll be on a plane for the duration of the game. Heaven help this place if we're playing the 'ole again. ALASKA HOOSIER 1 Quote
WayneFleekHoosier Posted November 24, 2015 Posted November 24, 2015 Although, if we let their guards drive undefended to the bucket they will look good. We have a knack for making teams look good. Townie, HoosierSadaseci and Class of '66 Old Fart 3 Quote
AKHoosier Posted November 24, 2015 Posted November 24, 2015 We'll win this game by 30 points then hopefully it will give us some momentum and confidence back. Still early in the season. Way too early to panic. Quote
Alford Bailey Posted November 24, 2015 Posted November 24, 2015 We'll hit 17 threes and win easy. Everyone will be proud ALASKA HOOSIER, Bobman1, johnsoniu and 1 other 4 Quote
MartintheMopMan Posted November 24, 2015 Posted November 24, 2015 We'll win this game by 30 points then hopefully it will give us some momentum and confidence back. Still early in the season. Way too early to panic. We'll win this game by 30 and everyone will pretend Wake Forest was a fluke and that we expected Duke to beat us by forty then act confused when Northwestern and PSU beat us. 8bucks, WayneFleekHoosier, KingPG21 and 1 other 4 Quote

BGleas Posted November 24, 2015 Posted November 24, 2015 I don't remember the first time I got a DVR (maybe 2008), but this is the first time I'm not bothering to record an IU game so I can watch it. Not even going to bother. Apathy is probably the word right now. Napleshoosier, HoosierAloha, WayneFleekHoosier and 3 others 6 Quote

If I were home I'd watch but..... BGleas 1 Quote
TheWatShot Posted November 24, 2015 Posted November 24, 2015 It's way too early for me to be in that stage, but I worry I'll reach my breaking point even earlier this season. It happened last year when we went 10 minutes without scoring in the second half at Northwestern. I turned the game off and didn't watch another second of IU basketball until last week. I kind of wish I could be in Maui just so I could throw a coconut at Crean's head. WayneFleekHoosier, Alford Bailey, Bobman1 and 1 other 4 Quote

Not even going to bother. Apathy is probably the word right now. So I don't remember who said it here, but they were dead on when they said having the fans be apathetic towards the current state of the program is worse than having fans be pissed at the current state of the program. At least the pissed fans care Crimson and Cream, ALASKA HOOSIER, Alford Bailey and 1 other 4 Quote
Hoosiers High Life Posted November 24, 2015 Posted November 24, 2015 I don't get this fan base we lost one game. Granted it was to a team that we shouldn't lose to but this season isn't a failure yet. It's ok to be disappointed because I am but we as a fan base need to show our players support not downgrade them. It's a loss like this that could make a team stronger so don't bash the team Quote

It's ok to be disappointed because I am but we as a fan base need to show our players support not downgrade them. It's a loss like this that could make a team stronger so don't bash the team Its got to do with the issues that have persisted throughout Crean's tenure, lack of a consistent low post presence on both ends, the crap defense, the poor play designs out of timeouts that are getting to people. Its the consistently losing to teams that are far less talented than our opponents and you can see things that are easily fixable being the reason. Again, I'm sounding like a broken record at this point, just because people are being critical of the players or coach that doesn't count as bashing. Crimson and Cream and 8bucks 2 Quote

Again, I'm sounding like a broken record at this point, just because people are being critical of the players or coach that doesn't count as bashing. It's the making a few good shots and being pulled from the game for some players. While other players make great assists to the other team continuously and don't get yanked. It's the blah attitude from the team. It's the coach not taking responsibility. It's for the "leaders" on the team not holding others responsible. It's scoring when we get the ball in the lane and immediately forgetting that works and jacking up contested jumpers. There's so many aspects that play out during a game where you feel we're going to let slip away. I called it in the chat that the game felt like the Butler game a few years back in Indy. And we got the same result.... Quote
