Defense jumped from 83rd to 72nd and offense up to 15th from 19th.  I guess that's what a good performance will do.

Ferrell: "We're realizing how important it is for us to play defense."

 

Okay, definitely strange they're just realizing this now, but aside from that...good.

That's a huge indictment of Crean.

 

Regardless, they're a much better team when they focus on the defensive end; and they're a better team without Blackmon.  I hope all get better because of these revelations.

He should be teaching defense as the first priority and offense second. D travels better than O.

I think it's become an emphasis who Crean targets and recruits

Through four Big Ten games, Indiana is allowing 0.93 points per possession. That's second-fewest in the league in conference games. #iubb
