They had a 6 point lead with 5 to go. Did lose a 17 point lead though.
I’m sure that would be your attitude if we did that in the first round also right? At least we were there even though we blew a 19 point lead with seven minutes to go?Hey at lest they were in..
I'm still looking for Indiana ?
And Woodson has more resources than just a handful of coaches .
Ridiculous the cash Indiana puts towards basketball.. And can't even be one of 68..
Great point.I’m sure that would be your attitude if we did that in the first round also right? At least we were there even though we blew a 19 point lead with seven minutes to go?
The chair incident hung over Bob Knight and it didn’t slow him down.Alford is clearly a better coach than Archie and Woodson but the Pierre Pierce incident is a weight around his neck.

If Purdue fans feared Alford’s possible hiring, that’s all I need to hear. That Steve Alford was never granted even a courtesy interview for the job is another one of the growing number of tragedies identified with IU basketball.
Yep. Cut to 6 with 4 left and the better team wonThey were up up 16 with roughly 6 mins left.
I would think Steve’s father had deep ties to many HS programs in the state.I think he would have done better than Painter at least initially. He would have been a much stronger recruiter in the state of Indiana than Painter was. He is a state legend and along with the advantages that IU had, I think just the talent alone would have made IU a powerhouse. Painter has caught up and I think is a good coach. If IU hadn't been down while Painter was getting his coaching legs under him, Alford at IU would have cleaned his clock.
Fraud?Alford proves yet again that he is a complete and total fraud.

Didn't they say Steve has taken 5 teams to the ncaa tourney?Alford proves yet again that he is a complete and total fraud.
This didn't age well.Can someone help me?? I don't see what bracket UCLA is in.
TIA
Then the IU decision makers are even dumber than we all thought. I sure as hell hope that wasn't a part of the decision-making process. Asinine.Hadn't thought about the timing of Howard's success at Michigan having an influence on the Woodson hire. But obviously the offseason they were making the Woody coaching hire, was immediately after Howard's B10 championship season. I'm sure that did have some influence.
One thing I liked about this Blackshear was you could tell he was a mid range guy. The last play of the 1st half he went to the baseline and I knew it was going to be good. And btw I had not seen him play ever.
Why not? Nevada made the tournament and lost to a higher seeded team.This didn't age well.
You know.Why not? Nevada made the tournament and lost to a higher seeded team.
And UCLA is watching the tournament, like us.
How doesn't it age well?
