Gotta admit, I was very pleased with the effort tonight. Calls didn't go our way and Wisky couldn't miss a shot. We played decent D for the most part. I really hope that Crean's ejection lights a fire in this team. I just don't know if I can take another season like the last two next year. Just gotta be optimistic. |

i think once we step back after this season we'll realize that it wasn't all that bad. this team is young/inexperienced/tired/etc, etc. this is just one season of many for IU basketball, and this struggle could be the key to lighting the fire for the future. honestly, i think we might view this ejection as a "turning point" in coming years. |

For many years I've been one of the harshest critics of the IU program. I dogged on Davis, I slayed Sampson from day one....but this team under Crean? Seriously, it isn't that bad. We ARE playing hard. Here's what I keep telling everyone...Indiana is a state that has a famed high school basketball program. High school basketball is practically a religion. As of recent, North Central and Bloomington South have been two very publicized teams. Now, imagine, if next year they both played a prominent freshman lineup. High school freshman vs. Juniors and Seniors. I don't think people would be as critical because the talent disparity is VERY obvious. This makes me wonder why people are freaking the fuck out about IU's squad right now. I mean, we just lost to a VERY good Wisconsin team. They're the 19th best team in the country...we're just a bunch of freshmen with our best player sitting on the bench with an injury. Calm down. They're freshmen. We are supposed to lose these games. The team isn't giving up. It's all part of the process. Chill...the....fuck...out. br |

He's 12/16 in 4 games against Purdue. Fuck him. |

Might have repercussions in the offseason according to some rumors. |

Its called defensive position. UW teaches it better than any team in the conference. |

They played hard against WISC last night, but if you think they played hard in the 4 games or so before that you are delusional. Youth has nothing to do with effort, and Crean should have sent a message by benching guys who only give effort on the offensive end of the floor. |

I will be glad when that guy is gone. What we have coming in as freshman next year, and they are freshman, will be an upgrade to Dumbass and Jobe. Dumbass wouldn't play at Morehead State University. |

That has been my frustration with Crean. It is obvious we aren't going to win. Why not bench Pritchard and others that aren't playing like they are suppose to and play Bawa, Capo, Moore, and others to send that message. I don't like Moore, but Crean needs to send a message. |

Go Tebow!

After Pritchard missed those 2 FTs last night, they said he has now missed 10 in a row. Wow |

They are not all freshman. ;) We have to quit saying that, they are just freshman. To the best of my knowledge, Pritchard and VJ are sophomores, Rivers is a junior but is a senior school wise, and Dumbass is a senior. But none of them play with any discipline, court awareness, and intelligence on the floor. VJ constantly drives in the lane and loses the ball, Pritchard plays like a pussy, Rivers can't shot from outside, turns the ball over way too much, and Dumbass, well that name says it all. He would start for Morehead State University. Now I understand Watford is lean and playing a little out of position, Hulls needs 30 feet to get his shot off, Elston and Capo aren't on the floor enough to get better or improve. Bawa should have gotten minutes as well. We aren't going to win, so Crean needs to play all the Freshman and fuck Dumbass and Pritchard. Bri, it's not getting beat that people are frustrated about, it is how we are getting beat. There is no way we should be beat at home by that big of a margin to any team in the B10, especially Wisky, who doesn't score that much to begin with. |

I'm guessing you say that from experience. You've been to a UW camp/clinic or something? How the fuck would you "know" that? |
