I'm still high on the uk win. Crazy. Not sure I'm even wanting to think about this game yet.

Boys, we are due for a hot shooting night. They can't keep up if so. I just want a nail biter honestly. Unc is definitely a better squad than UK.. at the same time, IU just shot 28% from deep. Probably won't happen again!

IU has the right ingredients. UNC is ass at guarding the perimeter.

Another solid week of healing will do Hartman good as well. I have a suspicion he wasn't 100% yesterday being as he didn't attempt hardly any jumpshots.

There is something special about this Band of Brothers and this Wounded Warrior Project that they have become. The cohesion of the Team and sacrifice for each other is something to see unfolding before us! Good Luck and Godspeed in the upcoming battles! HOOAAHH!

Hartman just has to pick his attack now. No long shots, just mix up the offense and take it to the rim when needed. If anything, drive with the sole purpose to kick out.

Bryant may be a non factor in this game guys. But again, Max can pull a big away with his deep ball. I hope his shot is true as well. We will definitely need everyone doing their normal. We don't really need HOT. Just shoot the 45% from deep and it will eventually break UNC.

Really bummed we are coming up busted now. I do NOT want these hoosiers going down because of some sprains. Gotta have Morgan. Quite honestly, gotta have Burton just to throw some fresh legs at their bigs.

Rojo said he re-agrivated the bone bruise he's dealing with. Let's hope he's ready to go. I think it will take a lil more than just good 3 point shooting to win this. I remember watching Duke/UNC game at Cameron and Duke was knocking down its 3s but could do nothing in the interior and eventually lost. We need to gang rebound, get some of their bigs in foul trouble and absolutely NO silly turnovers! If we do these things and shoot like we are capable then we should be successful.

We're a lot better rebounding team than Duke and Carolina doesn't guard the perimeter particularly well. I like our chances.

I love this matchup, there is no better way than going through who we are going to face. We beat UK, now we have UNC and then we could have Kansas if we get that far. To me, going through Blue Bloods like that would be such an amazing thing. Max, TB, and OG have to be ready to go. We know what we will get with our backcourt against UNC but if our frontcourt shows up.... Boy oh boy I love this team. CTC might not be ready to be done coach this team, but I am no where down watching them either.

I love it that all the commentators and talking heads are counting us out against UNC----because I guarantee you our guys believe they will win. And--Hoosier Nation believes as well!

 

On a side note--it has been wonderful down here in rainy Southern Indiana today.  I have been across the bridge to Owensboro, Kentucky twice today in full IU gear.  Lots of grumbling across the border. Most are talking about how bad they played because they don't want to give us any credit.  Of course, we know better!  A Great Day!
