Good game @Jaycg15, @RichieRebel, @cmore79 and @all4theillini. That was a great atmosphere and fun game.
Braden Smith has some big balls. Just a couple of massive shots in Shannon’s face.

Good game back….game respects game.
You guys are tough to say the least. Two tough teams going head to head.
Best of luck the rest of the way.
Biggest shock to me was how much we slowed down your offense in the second half. You really didn’t have anything that worked outside of Domask’s booty ball. Shannon was a no show. Zach was in Hawkins’ head. Guerrier cooled off thankfully.
One of Coleman Hawkins redeeming qualities is that he’s just straight triggered by Purdue and he’s so stupid he has no idea how to downplay it.
Was a tough game, the crowd was really good all night. Illinois made some critical mistakes down the stretch on rebounds and missed assignments that made the difference. Can’t do that against an elite team.
Minor detail: Edey never touched the ball on the Hawkins block. He hit Hawkins on the right hand and peeled it off the ball. Replay was very obvious.

I was being facetious.
I think I was quoting as you were editing.I'd like to see a video replay before agreeing that Edey didn't get any ball. I remember that play thinking it could have been a foul, but I also think I recall him getting some ball first.Was a tough game, the crowd was really good all night.

Gotta love Peacock. I coach volleyball so missed the first half. Came back and couldn't watch from the beginning because you can't record. Then I had a 5 second audio to video delay. Awesome...
One of the questions I had last night is why did Underwood bring Hansberry into the game instead of going back with Dainja. He was certainly less effective defensively and brought nothing offensively while Dainja did some good things.
4 fouls in 3 minutes is impressive tho. I thought his 4th might be a flagrant. He literally grabbed Edey and spun him around right in front of an official. Looked like a frustration play to me.
I thought Painter similarly erred late when he stayed with Lance to defend Domask and Marcus got going offensively during that 8-0 run. Lance hadn't done much offensively to that point and Heide played very solid D on Domask earlier. Of course, Jones hit the massive shot in the corner a bit later to offset the defensive lapses but I thought a change may have been warranted.

He got ball first. Illinois really doesn’t have room to complain when they were +7 at the line and committed two less fouls but I’m still seeing a lot of complaining lol.
This is what DD has been reduced to these days. Oh how the mighty have fallen.
Rumor: Bruce Pearl would take Indiana job 'today without any reservation'
Bruce Pearl would take the Indiana job "today without any reservation" if Mike Woodson were to be let go and the Hoosiers were to extend an offer to the former
Another caveat is when Woodson signed his new raise contract it was inserted that his buyout can be paid $1mil annually instead of having to be paid by the end of his current contract. Instead of paying 12mil over a 2-3 year period it can be stretched out over 12.
And the way I read it, he needs to pursuing other employment to receive it. That must be just initially as he cannot be expected to be active looking at 78.
Either way, I am not sure how I feel about BP. Good coach, he obviously gets what IU is about but his age and the Auburn issues with Person give me pause.
He'd get some sort of basketball job. Whatever it pays is deducted from the buyout. All I know is he's won everywhere he's been. Give him IUs resources and NIL money and I think he'd have a solid 10 year run.
Looks like a block to me. I’ve certainly seen worse calls/no calls.
THis is why IU has been a mid-major for 30 years...
Holier than tho approach.
His age? Dude is a mere 63. But functions like he 40. Hes got plenty of wheels left.
Hes a very good coach who would energize IU hoops, and have them competing at a high level very quickly.
Again, its why IU is IU....Some of ya''ll acting like we are talking about hiring a mob boss, or something. My goodness.
It has zero to do with my life personally. It has everything to do with where the game is(now). In the era of NIL, its moot to point out discprancies, of the past. The landscape has changed.
