That is true. When they break down the bad losses, they aren't looking at how many turnovers we had against Rutgers...

Good thing, at this point they'd look at our resume then laugh and toss it in the paper shredder.  Then laugh some more.

We are seriously one of if not the oddest team in America.  Glad it was Rutgers, because very few places can you go and turn the ball over 23 times and win.

RJ and Troy Williams- 45 minutes, 10 points, 4-12, 7 rebounds, 5 assist, 12 turnovers...

Crean saying" this is not the Rutgers if last year, etc and these guys will win this year."

 

Literally had a losing record coming into conference play..............Tom they aren't doing squat in the B1G this season. 

[incrediboy 922]

Whatever RoJo did last night, don't ever let him do it again. He looked like he'd never played a college game before.

 

What's happened to NZ's deadly shot?

 

Yogi and Troy weren't exactly valuing the ball when they had it, either. Guess they thought someone had to turn it over a few extra times since Blackmon wasn't there to drive to nowhere.

 

At least OG stepped up, he could be the gem of this recruiting class. That jam that didn't count was impressive, too. This kid could really be something.

 

Other positives: Hartman seems back in form, Morgan and Burton gave some quality minutes (I had no idea Burton was deadly from the corner). And we'd have been lost without Max.

 

A win is a win, but we won't win another road B1G game playing this poorly.

[HoosierAloha 30,024]

Only 5 TOs for players not named Yogi, Troy, or RoJo.  JMor and OG had pretty solid games too.

[HoosiersLoveBanners 797]

Painful game to watch. Without Max and OG, we probably lose that one big. Didn't think I'd say that this year.

Tom Crean: “Everybody loves to make predictions & look at the past. That team (Rutgers) is getting better… They’ve got a lot of firepower.”

Does Tom honestly believe the shit that comes out of his mouth? Times running out Clappy. What a crock.

Just once I'd love to hear a reporter ask him if he even watched the game after some of his comments.

 

That'd almost be worth him staying around longer.  Okay, no it wouldn't but it'd still be hilarious.

Rutgers is the only team in the power 5 to be favored to lose every conference game.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Oh but let me tell ya about their firepower...

[coonhounds 8,768]

One day crean says were tired and to many game in to few days then we play like junk after several days off and he says that is a factor. That tells you all you need to know about how crean analyzes our performance

No Tom you are wrong.

 

They are a bad team that really wanted to win today more than IU.  They really thought they had a shot against us because we too suck and were on their playing level.  Luckily they missed some bunnies today that could have really made this season interesting.  Now back in that locker room and tell your team they were horrible today.

Maybe he watched a Rutgers practice where all their injured players were nailing threes?  The Rutgers team I've watched is turrrble.  I guess when you play against our defense we make it look like you have firepower???  I'm at a loss.  I've watched a handful of post game pressers and just laugh.  It's good comedy.

[HoosierCoop 3,885]

Everyone just wanted to go through the motions today.

 

Even the post game press conference.  Let's pull out some canned responses.

Good, God.  Nobody's buying anymore, Tom.  Just pathetic.

[BlueDevil 8,655]

I just think this team is on pace to get their ass beat again when a formidable opponent arises on the a schedule. Played terrible basketball that resulted in Ws too often since Duke against terrible teams. They won't be anywhere close to ready.
