    NIL Arms Race

    Not sure why you’re so emotional about this. It’s obvious what players who move around every year care about. Not one of the inbound transfers would be here if we didn’t have bags of cash for them. Galloway, Leal, and Cups are likely the only ones who are playing for the name on the front of...

    NIL Arms Race

    I’m fine with players getting paid. The yearly mass transfer and building a new roster with guys who couldn’t care less about IU is what is hard to get excited about.

    NIL Arms Race

    Hard to get excited watching new kids come in every year with no association to Indiana University other than the money lining their pockets from our boosters. Lame.

    NIL Arms Race

    And yet I’ve never felt so disconnected or less excited about IU basketball.

    Road to the MAC I know but……..

    Can’t even keep up at the moment. Long gone are the days when we knew what our lineup would like 2-3 years down the road. Don’t really feel the connection to the IU players like I used to … wish we’d build from within. I feel like the pay to play method is a crap shoot in trying to build a...

    Connor Hickman

    He’s not that good. I watch a lot of Bradley hoops and his game doesn’t translate to the Big10. He could even handle pressure when handling the basketball. This is good news.

    Fland decommits

    Totally agree. He’s the one guy that can bring a sixth banner, in spite of who is coaching. We’ve been mediocre for far too long… time to pony up to put IU basketball back on the college hoops map. We all deserve it, as does the greater landscape of college basketball.

    what event is on your bucket list?

    Would love to get to a Final Four in my adult lifetime. The decades are passing quickly.

    POTFB

    You just sit here and keep talking about FDU all year. I blame you. Bad mojo man. Wonder if some of the rest of us on here can at least acknowledge Painter for being a good coach and winning the right way. Clearly, Purdue sticking with him through a few rough seasons and not overreacting to one...

    Half the national nightmare is over

    Possible for sure. They’re playing well and should have been the 4th number 1 seed.

    Tony Perkins (sounds like he's coming here to me)

    His poor ball handling cost Bradley two games last year in the final seconds. Indiana State stripped him at the end of regulation in Terre Haute as did Drake in the MVC semifinal game. I grew up in Peoria and watch a lot of Bradley basketball. Hickman will be an okay BigTen player, but he’s not...

    Utah State Foul Fest

    Over the back isn’t a foul.

    IU could beat Utah St

    Maybe. Long way to go and until take one bad night.

    Painter

    Jones is a grad transfer. Little difference IMO in taking those guys in versus dudes that just want to go from school to school for the biggest pay check. Painter has Purdue winning the right way. Their program represents what college basketball should be about. I personally enjoy seeing the...

    How does May end up at Michigan?!

    The IU administration is clueless. Next year is a total waste, IMO and we just let an Indiana guy go to Michigan. What are we doing!?! Hard to take watching the NCAA tourney. We’re not even close right now and a dude that would have put the sixth star on our shorts just went to Ann freaking...

    Hire Alford quick!

    I’d love Alford on our sidelines. He’d win trophies at Indiana.

    PU NCAA

    Yea sure, they could. Or, the 2024 version of the NCAA turns into a crap shoot like most of the recent ones have and neither make the regional final. They’re both still plus odds to make the final four.

    Selection Sunday

    Yep, totally sucks where IU isn’t in the field. It’s one of the best weekends of the year when your team is actually playing for something.

    Where is our fanbase??

    It’s ridiculous in here. Nebraska is at least 3:1 fans compared to ours. Would be expected if this was football but we are talking basketball! What’s happening to IU hoops?! Totally embarrassing. And play some damn defense. Cupps can’t guard my mother.
