Wow, didn't realize Texas already has 10 losses and they're on their way to 11.  They had a big win over Oklahoma last week and recently moved up to a 5 seed ahead of us.

Yes, they get a big bump with any Big 12 win. But Kansas is putting a hurt on then now.

[HoosierRob]

Win out (including the BTT) and IU is a 2 imo

We need to get off that 5. We have chances this week and next.

Nothing scares me more than being a 5.

[WayneFleekHoosier]

3 vs 5 is night and day difference. Hopefully we can win our way to the 3 seed.

[Brass Cannon]

i do not agree with Kentucky ahead of us

[FortWayneHoosier]

i do not agree with Kentucky ahead of us

absolutely agree....i think we would destroy them this year 

[VO5]

Agreed with others who said 4 seed. We should jump a seed line even if we lose to Iowa (road loss to a top 15 team won't hurt us) and beat Maryland. Gotta win one in the BTT though

[KingPG21]

Yeah he is listed on this list @ #95 I guess the question would be how high of a pick do you have to be to be projected in the NBA? Since they only have 2 rounds maybe the top 64?

 

You could probably add Virginia to the list. Uthoff is also on the list, but as a SF. I imagine the tweet was to point out that Guard play weighs big in the tournament.

On which list at 95? Draftexpress has him at 35

It was the top 100 prospect list on DraftExpress. That post you quoted was from 2/12 so I guess he has jumped quite a bit, but it has him at #40 now.

[Alford Bailey]

We have to keep winning. We will never get the benefit of the doubt with the committee. Have to keep winning and force them to seed us higher.

[Alford Bailey]

Nothing scares me more than being a 5.

No kidding. 5 seed is upset special.

[mdn82]

I hope we can get to the 2 or 3 line.  A 4/5 you are still playing the 1 in the Sweet 16.  A 2 or 3 you won't have the possibility to play them until the Elite 8 and I have a feeling this tournament is going to be insane.  If there were ever a year where you say don't pay attention to anything going on around you, this would be that year.  So much parity that there will be upsets early and often.

[Striper]

He tweeted that IU wouldn't be higher than a 3 seed no matter what happens.

 

So hypothetically IU could end the season by winning 5 straight games (4 against strong competition).  They would be 28-6 and have won both the regular season title and BTT title.  And Lunardi would have them on the 3 line.  Can't see how they wouldn't at least hit the 2 line if that happened. 

Lunardi started hedging his bets yesterday saying IU can move to a 2 seed with a BTT run.

[Me So Hornsby]

At worst I think we are a 4 seed, which would be losing Sunday and the first round of the BTT. I think if we win Sunday and win 2 games in the BTT we are a 2-3. If we can pull off the BTT champ also.... I really like this team

Lunardi moves Indiana up to the 3 seed line after last night.
