Bullshit, and this is going to be my last comment for the year because the year is over, even if we make it to the tourney, we all know this is a losing situation. Archie has not panned out, I'm not one to not give the guy a chance, but it's dreadful and I'm not sure any amount of talent (which he garners little of, same as Crean, UK, UNC leftovers overbilled). That's his act and it's really waring thin after the MD like meltdown and complete unprofessionalism on display there … we lost cause he sucks, unprepared again against an inferior. It's so bad to watch anymore, I prefer to listen and not waste my money, or go to a bar WTF? His ass needs to be fired immediately after this year, I mean really, is this a good team, just needs more time. I don't think so, and I think most fans know exactly the problem.

It's a nice day for a white wedding. The thing of it is, I'm not so sure it is the coach, so it not, it must be on the players. Imagine these same players we have today, only they are at least average shooters with maybe a below avg. one or two, but certainly an above average one to counter. Have that scenario today and we would be looking mighty fine 'bout now, along with "Coach". Forget the boneheaded plays-doesn't matter because we can survive that if we're making our fair share of shots. That's just how close we are-next year we breathe in new life, exhaling the stale.
"Be patient, Grasshopper! Sometime dreary season come...rain, thunder, lightning crashing all about you. Sometime new season come...sunshine, low humidity, more wonderful than ever felt, warming soul forever. I feel next season coming, Grasshopper." ~ Old Proverb, paraphrased
Oh, BTW, I only made that initial comment about "White Wedding" because it was playing on the radio at the time and is something I take pause to do, sneer along with Billy Idol. I almost didn't, being afraid someone might try to read too much into it, like "WTF was that supposed to mean?" and so they really think about it. Think about it.
I’d tell you to step off of the ledge, but you should just jump...
didn’t we just beat a top ten penn st team the game before last? Just got a really good verbal this week? But now the world is over because we lost at Purdue by 8?
you are why national broadcasters roll their eyes and/ or snicker when they talk about IU fans. Good job!
Because if the ones like you who are naive and don’t realize we stink and have for years. But “wait until next year “
We’ll likely be preseason top 25 even if Landers doesn’t reclassify. So, I’m going to enjoy the rest of this season and also technically ‘wait until next year.’ It’s like having your cake and eating it too. But you probably hate cake...

ya, obviously the last poll is the best but it’s okay to want be in the pre-season one too. Usually a good sign. But you knew that and wanted to sound wise and maybe even cool. Impressive!
So, why don’t you shut the f up or, alternatively, add something. Anything. Just once. Then you won’t totally suck.
Are you from Columbus, Indiana? I grew up in Columbus and still live here.
It's a fact that Purdue offered him a scholarship.
What facts do you have that they "didn't chase him hard?"
Yes my advice is to lower your expectations, when IU was a dominant team (many years ago) after a rare loss I was disappointed and butt hurt for a day or two. Since I've lowered my expectations knowing that basically every road game is a loss, it's not so bad. I expect them to lose, and 2 minutes after a loss like last night I was over it and couldn't have cared less. It's makes watching the last few years of games much more enjoyable.
Until CAM proves he can get it done , “signs” don’t mean jack. More of the “hope” strategy from the apologist. Next year , next year , next year , or this player or that player. All garbage until he demonstrates there is legitimacy to his hire. He’s proven nothing thus far except he can lose 12/13, not beat Purdue , etc.
Most likely Lander and Phinisee both start. That might cure our guard issues, at least it will go a long way towards curing it. If I’m Phinisee, I’m concentrating on improving my shooting the entire off season.
1. What incident on the bench?
2. Maybe Archie should remove TC recruits. Play with Walk ons but at least play hard.

I think they mean the Miller\Flint discussion on the bench. They were both animated and dropped a couple f-bombs (referring to someone else, not each other) but it also seemed that they disagreed about something and Miller was pissed off about it.
You’re an idiot if you think I have lower expectations than you. In fact, the low expectations mantra of some of the perpetually negative is ridiculous. I think we all have high expectations, but have different ideas about what it takes to get there. If we’d all kept that in mind this place would be far more civil, mature and enjoyable. However, it’s obvious that many here have no interest in that - all they want to do is whine and cry like children expecting instant gratification. I guess that’s enjoyable to them. . .
ya, we need less of this and more of your diary. We know you hate that IU is a (projected) tourney team. You spent most of the week questioning this in your diary entries. Mature af.
So they knew he was going to fight injury's his first two years? Anything other than that is BS and you know it. When RP is a very good player when healthy.
More gibberish from a member of the Lowered Expectations Society. You should have your meetings in Hawaii. Aloha! Or Ferguson. I hear the beer is fabulous.
I said "If." I didn't call you a name unless you fit what comes after the "if."
You are the most emotionally fragile poster on the board.
Most projections have us as a 9 right now. We're not last 4 in.
Honest question. How many times have you watched the team play this year since they don't pass the eye test?
Nah, grew up in Indy, took the name Columbus-Boiler when I was living for several years in OSU land.
Columbus isn’t a bad city at all. I enjoyed it when I taught at OSU. OSU football games and tailgating are a lot of fun too. Most don’t care much about basketball though.
