[Atticus Crean's opening statement)

"Ladies and gentlemen of the court, I'm just a simple, backwoods basketball coach and don't have any of those fancy "credentials" or "championships" that some of those fancy-pants, big name coaches have. What I do have is an oddly tinted tan, a diet-Pepsi can filled with rum, and a senior point guard named after a fictional, cartoon bear. Now that might not sound like much and, in truth, I've failed under better circumstances, but as God and RMK as my witness (even if he doesn't return my calls) we will not be defeated by some pissant school named after a worthless bird. Seriously, when we got our draw I turned to Nick Zeisloft (he's a grad student after all) and asked him "what the hell is a Moc?" When we couldn't figure it out we sent Timmy (Priller) to the library to do some research because damnit if the kid is going to be on scholarship he might as well finally contribute in some way. Long story short, Tommy [sic] comes back and let's me know it's short for "Mockingbirds." Seriously. Mockingbirds. I figured it was some obscure Indian [sic] tribe or like a water moccasin or something fearsome like that. But no. It's a bird. A really, really weak bird. I'd be more afraid if it was the damn shoe....oh, I'm sorry, am I rambling? I'll wrap it up then. Anyways, if we don't win this game you might as well fire me, but please don't.

Brian! this is your best work ever!

Last line I saw was IU -11

Yogi and Crean will have the troops focused tonight. I smell a blowout

[ElectricBoogaloo 4,307]

Last line I saw was IU -11

 

Line may be overstated by the amount of public money coming in on Indiana's side (recognizable team, large alumni base). I expect this game to be a close one.

Not sure if posted already, but this made me feel a little more comfortable.

@insidethehall: Is IU's first game draw favorable? Chattanooga ranked behind every other 12 seed, every 13 seed, two 14 seeds and a 15 seed in KenPom. #iubb

[Hovadipo 55,731]

I hope this means we're rocking our regulars tonight...

I for one cannot bear another long weekend and now end of season loss like last Friday.
KNOCK EM' OUT EARLY & CONVINCINGLY HOOSIERS!
One game at a time. This team is headed to Houston!

Gotta' go to the gym and get rid of some angst in prep for the game. Back in time for 2nd half of Purdue ...maybe!

Are we going back to normal uniforms for the tourney?

Not sure. I hope that is a picture of one of the unis for tonight though.

[coonhounds 8,881]

All this upset talk. If we lose tonight I will be very upset. Better not lose this one.

About to put the candy stripes on


We lost last time I wore them. If we lose today, blame it on me folks.

Me and probably a whole lot of people will be right there with you!  Go Hoosiers!
