Indiana gets thumped

[Vlad the Impaler]

Cruise,

What is IU looking like next year? Lose Yogie but Blackmon should be back. Any chance those 2 five star guys sign (Rawles and Thon Maker). Troy Williams should be back. Of course in his mind ( and his mama's from the Maui Invitational) he should be a lottery pick. That's not gonna happen.

Losing Yogi is going to hurt bad. The offense runs around like chickens with their heads cut off when he's on the bench. Dude is a 4 year senior leader who's basically the coach. Top 10 all time IU player imo. Blackmon makes the team worse. Just a dumb player. Loads of talent but unfortunately he has no coach to develop him. Same goes with troy williams.

Word is Thomas Bryant is going to the league.

I doubt Crean can sign the two 5 -stars. Most likely we are NIT bound next year.

 

[Greenbacks]

Indiana sucks

 

[JustinCruise]

"Overrated" indiana embarrassing scum Purdue

First place in the big ten and looking awfully dangerous heading into March

 

[REDEYE]

not exactly embarrassing when they didn't even cover

 

[JustinCruise]

Overrated Indiana crushes Illinois at Illinois by 25+

Overrated indiana first in big ten. Two games up with two games remaining


All those underrated teams like purdue, Michigan state, Ohio state, iowa, Wisconsin, Maryland all trail the overrated Hoosiers

 

[Illini]

I don't have any idea how a team giving Nick Zeisloft significant minutes can be good, but they are pretty damn good.

Melo Trimble is the most overrated player in the history of CBB.

 

[bounceback]

With Indiana's guard play, they aren't going to be an easy out in the tourney...

 

[JustinCruise]

Cbs top 25 and one has 4 big ten teams ranked ahead of indiana who leads the big ten by two games.

Sounds more like underrated to me

 

[REDEYE]

subtract some optimism with having Crean as the coach..probably the difference in the tournament as far as advancing more then 2 games.. other words, that's a decent liability

Agree

Tom Crean has actually done a hell of a job this year. Quite honestly it's ridiculous that Indiana fans complain about him considering where that program was when he took over. Sampson left a literal dumpster fire. The guy inherited a program with ONE scholarship player. Indiana is lucky it isn't SMU football. Indiana fans are clueless.

Indiana fans expect final fours and championships.

Crean hasn't made it past the sweet sixteen even with very talented teams.

And most of those tourny losses were clearly due to coaching

A final four run this year will be a step in the right direction

This being exactly why Indiana fans are clueless (not to mention an entitled bunch of idiots). Indiana was a total rebuild. Ground up. One scholarship player. You don't compete for Big 10 championships, let alone National Championships with one scholarship player. He inherited no one. Like I said, Indiana is lucky it didn't become SMU football.

Also, do you understand how insane it is to say "Indiana fans expect final fours and championships? First of all, why? You probably weren't alive the last time Indiana won a national title in 87. You know how hard it is to win a natty? Izzo is probably the best coach in the country. The guy has one national title. It was 16 years ago. Maybe I buy the argument that he should've got the Zeller/Oladipo squad past Syracuse but beyond that Indiana fans are nuts.

 

[MantisToboggan]

By the way, I don't mean to say you specifically are an idiot. Just that Indiana fans in general do not live in reality.

Zeisloft can shoot the lights out

 

[Illini]

Zeisloft can shoot the lights out

Good shooter, bad player. Didn't even play significan minutes at Ill St.

Overrated Hoosiers clinch second big ten title in four years.

Why is Michigan State a supposed 1 seed while IU is projected as a 5 seed? And according to CBS sports, they would be in the same bracket. IU wins the Big 10 and their out of conference losses are to Duke and 2 games in the Maui tournament which everyone knows are not real. Just a Thanksgiving vacation. They are seed behind Michigan State, Maryland, and Purdue.

It's absurd that any team that wins the big ten would have a 5 seed. That should not happen ever. But i'm sure they will use this as motivation so no complaints from me
