    About time

    When you fill the stadium consistently around 40-50%; it's hard to get excited about the halftime show. So, the original comments could be coming from someone who has never been in a full stadium & watched a halftime show before. You going to tell the Notre Dame's, Ohio State, Michigan, etc...

    Scalia wins women's 3 point contest

    The next day, I told my 98 year old father (99 in May) & an IU grad: "Hey, a Hoosier won the National 3 point shooting contest; WHO, he said? Nobody on that team could make 2 in a row all season." I said, Dad - IU Women - Oh that's different - either Parish or SS..

    My crystal ball…

    More like one of those Plastic 8 Balls with the floating triangle that reads "only works with a path forward coach". No more of this starting over. Purdue basketball girls and boys bring-up the next person 1-2 years in. So, there is less pressure on the guy going out & the incumbent is settled...

    Dusty May- pros and cons

    After 2 seasons, ML has a better overall record compared to DM's 1st two seasons at FA. Both 1st time jobs.. But ML already recruits Indiana kids & the region. Plus, he understands Indiana basketball more because he played it.

    Dusty May- pros and cons

    No Disrespect.. Maybe DM is the guy, but this board & program would have been screaming after to back to back 8-10 conference records & 17 win finishes. He would never have gotten to the current level because IU would have fired him after year 3 or 4. He is not coaching at B10 levels or...

    Woodson and X

    How can you say that starting a freshman PG, freshman forward, sophomore PF, & sophomore center against teams like Purdue, Illinois, Northwestern, Nebraska etc.. (All with a number of returning starters) is not a factor? How many games has most of the Purdue team played together? 70+.. If you...

    I’m not happy about, but…

    Personally, I think that he has more to sort out on the front end than the back end when it comes to next year & how many wholes need to be filled. If we keep everybody except X & Mr. Walker & loses 2 to the portal/grad - he would be looking to fill 4 total slots - (assuming KW, MR, & MM & PS...

    BTT Women

    If you look at the box score, we really did not score very well except for the 2nd period. They stopped the dribble drive & we started missing.. Your playing offense, out of position, against the top D in the B10. Game over.. But this is a few years in a row, injuries have reduced the...

    All The Issues Are Easily Fixable, Woody Should Keep Going...

    Yes, it is always easier to hit the red button & blow everything up. But there are always consequences when folks panic & don't think everything through. After years on this board, I truly believe that this group would ask for John Wooden's reignition if he fell to the middle of the standings...

    Holtman and Collins

    Teams who can hold their core for a few years typically do better. Having RT & TJD really helped last year. Their experience was critical. We are really young in the front court. If KW, MR, and MM all return, we will be dangerous next year.

    Bates

    Do you not remember him going like 0-17 in the B10 & NCAA tournament? I have followed him all year. This was by far, not the norm. His team is 0-5 in conference. He must not be helping them win. Geronimo has not done much either.

    I Don't Understand All The Negativity Towards Woody

    The 3 years prior to Woody coming to IU; we were 51-43; 24-35 (conf) & 0-6 vs Purdue.. In 2.5 years, Woody is 58-31; 25-21 (conf) & 3-1 vs Purdue He has recruited at a high level - JHS (NBA), MR (NBA talent), Cupps is going to be solid, Ware, MM, JN, etc.. Losing Jakai Newton really killed us...

    A win is a win…I suppose

    Totally agree.. It all comes down to points off turnovers. I know that our Sr guards have not played much together, but we are terribly negative in road games (points off turnovers & positive at AH). With Sr guards, you would think that we could correct that.. If so, we have some winnable...

    Is IU's 38-21 Beating Of Michigan In 2020 By MP & KD - "A Projection For Tonight?"

    I think so.. I think MP & KD shine tonight.. BB

    3-1 - All in all, not too bad.

    Michigan State lost at Nebraska.. We need the whole team for the rest of the way. Where is Sparks? Hurt? I see no reference to his statice.. Good confidence building win.. Go IU!!

    Sun Belt U

    IU hired a winning football coach... The fact that the whole brain trust came along for the ride; gives me confidence that this guy is going to hit the ground running. When was the last time that we had this much stability at the top of the coaching staff? You don't win like this guy at so...

    Sun Belt U

    Makes total sense; he recruited & scouted all these kids for years. Take what you know... Smart in my opinion.

    been a long time since we had a rim protector like Ware.

    Top All-Time Shot Blockers - TJD, Dean Garrett (only 2 years), Allen Henderson & Jeff Newton.. Juwan Morgan was in the top 10 along with DJ White & 7-2 Uwe Blab

    Im incredibly sad we didnt get the Eastern Michigan coach

    No, I think folks pointed at him because of his track record of turning dormant programs around & his ties to Indiana football. I know that they got blown out tonight, but EMU football was a doormat for decades, & he has taken them to several bowls. Anybody who claimed that he was Vince...

    Mgbako needs a lot of work....

    So based on your logic, Xavier Booker is a complete bust already. MM was ranked #9 last year & has lines of 9.5/4.1/1.4 - 95% FT, 8 double figure games & 18 minutes a game Booker was ranked #16 last year & has lines of 3.6/1.5/.4 - 1 double figure game & 8 minutes a game
