Anyone else tired of every season having a "breaking point"?

Seems that since Crean was coach January has represented the breaking point for the season, usually resulting in an extended losing streak. He we stand once again on the precipice of another epic slide. Does anyone else see more than two wins out of the next 7 games? 4 out of the remaining games in the season? I would love to be wrong but 17-14 seems to be looming as the final record for this team. 17-15 if we do our typical BIG Tourney swoon, 18-15 if we win a tourney game.

well, once the conf games begin, the truth comes out. We can't play Northern Alabama every game. At some point we have to go to Mackey, Breslin, etc....and take our medicine. Just wasn't expecting our $6M band of mercenaries to get curb stomped at home.

If we finish 17-15 I highly doubt there will be ANY tourney game...even B1G tourney.
 
At the rate they are going, back to back 25 point losses and nine more Quad 1 games, IU might be on the B1G Tourney bubble at 15 by years end. Losing builds like compound interest. Attitudes get worse, motivation gets worse, coach who knows. In a 40 minute game seeing a team wilt and quit at the first sign of trouble is a sure sign this team will get worse with each loss.

10 of their wins have been against Quad 3 and Quad 4 teams ... so 17 or 18 wins is not really impressive. I expect the worse to happen with this team. Nothing shows me they have any amount of positive intestinal fortitude to battle.

That was the breaking point in my opinion. I think they will not recover enough to make the tourney. Had to go at least 2-2 in last 4, and they went 1-3.
Now they may go 1-5 next. Possibly they win a couple but I bet everyone agrees, when you look at the schedule, there are not a lot of wins in the next month or so.

Honestly we should have figured they would, because the schemes, situational adjustments, etc are still coming from the same coach.
 
I'm just tired of Indiana sucking so bad. I wish I could get excited about the season and they would win and get better as the season progresses. I don't get how IU has had 30 years of sucking minus 2-3 good seasons. My give a shit is almost on empty at this point.

No, the continuous crap show is quite entertaining. I mean, it’s not every three decades a storied program sinks lower each time it hires the wrong coach. Can’t wait for the next hire. Hopefully Quinn Buckner names himself head coach after Woodson coaches out his contract. That will be really fun!

Quinn was even a worse coach than Woodson as hard as that is to imagine.. In the land of the blind…

My give a shit has been empty a long time. Please lose out, IU.
 
Breaking point no but I have lost my sanity watching Mike Woodson coach..

Insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results”
