Who here has claimed IU was awesome over the past 6 years? Fans are cautiously optimistic going into next year because of the roster.
Outside of that Woodson still has a lot to prove and many of us have made that clear already.
The mental gymnastics of this post are impressive.
It's okay to just say you forgot about that 2019 tournament - I sure wish I could.
Not at all.
If you had the teams laid out in front of you for both of those tourneys, well one of them was a significantly easier path.
And you guys blew it to a 15 seed.
Purdue finally got a guard. No idea how his game will translate to the B1G. Looks like he's a good shooter. He's a career 41.3% shooter from three. He's also on his 4th program in 5 years (That's just dumb.....I hate the transfer rule).
Not bad I mean he played 19 min and avg 8.5 and .7 asst for an 11-20.
He struggled to adapt to the move to Utah. Not sure what that means for his transition to Purdue.
I'd say mot IU fans know "who/what we are"----program with a rich tradition, that has been meh the past 20 years. Haven't seen anyone claim otherwise. There's plenty reason to be excited about the upcoming season----with caution of course. BUt on paper, probably the most talented/best IU team since 2016....Find a couple more shooters, and this team has the capability of being up there with the 2013 team....Main questions are: Can we hit perimeter shots---or at least enough---And does Woody improve/adjust as a coach. Other than that, really no other concerns.
Fvcking kids
Pretty favorable schedule for Illinois as we get the bottom 4 teams (Minnesota, Nebraska, Penn St, and Northwestern) for home/away.
Plus we get you guys twice, so there is a couple auto-dubs😉
Tough to tell who will emerge this year but the only semi decent team we play twice is you guys. The rest blow chunks.

I'm actually liking Maryland's schedule. 3 of the 4 "bottom feeders" we have a home and home, and 2 of the perceived best teams we get at home only.
I think the Nits had a shot at being on the bubble but less so with that schedule. NW is a hot mess and Collins is probably a dead man walking.
Wow, I have no qualms admitting the conference hooked us up big time, lol … for once.
I highly doubt that's the opinion of 99.99% of Indiana fans----more like Barstools opinion---I guess. Certainly not mine----Then again,maybe it was a poll that was dominated by 18-30 year olds---I dunno.
For me, what I witnessed...
1. Upset of #1 UNC in 1984 SW 16 over the Jordan led Tar Heels. IU was huuuuuuuuge dogs. Still cannot believe THAT team beat THAT UNC team..
2. 1981 title win over UNC....Hell the tournament itself TBH. IU entered NCAAT 21-9. Entered B10 play 7-5, but got it going----though at one point they were 10-7, 3-2, but ended year going 11-2, and winning the B10. Then got in the NCAAT and just prison raped everyone. winning by 23ppg. WOn by 35, 15, 32, 18 and beat UNC , 63-50 for the title.
3. Keith Smart shot.....Really nothing more to say.
4. 1992 beat down of UCLA in West Regional Final. Might be the best I've ever seen an Indiana team play. Hoosiers had been blown out by the Bruins in their season opener, 87-72. UCLA talked some serious smack heading into the final-----BUt the "M&M boys were locked down,and IU absolutely put on a clinic----winning 106-79.
5. 2002 Final Four run, in other words, beating THAT Duke team in the SW 16----followed by an unbelievable 3 point barrage vs Kent State in the Regional Final...
But thats just me.....Sure there are some great shots, buzzer beaters that are memorable----and certainly the shot by Watford is up there. BUt so is the Jay Edwards shot to beat Michigan....Phins shot vs Purdue....hell even Robs shot vs Butler. Edwards shot to beat Purdue....
@hailtoyourvictor @GOO_HAM our boys Poole and Draymond got the chip tonight! Fun watch, what a bounce back Golden State had.
I never in a million years expected Draymond Green or Jordan Poole to be as good NBA players as they have become.

How about Stauskas being a worse nba player than Duncan Robinson and Jordan Poole?
Disadvantage for IU??? All six of our one game "series" are , well pretty favorable. We don't go to Wisconsin or OSU....Also get Nebby at home. @MD, Minny and PSU(I think they are gonna be pretty good) ...Should go 5-1 in those games----at worse. Won at MD and MInny last year---lost by 3 @ PSU.
Personally I think we got a pretty damn good schedule.
SHould win both vs NW....Possibly Rutgers.
IMO, feel our B10 schedule sets up nicely for 14 wins, maybe more.
14 could get you a shared title but 15-16 is probably the number you need most years.
Looking at Illinois’ schedule and I think 15-5 is pretty likely.
Split these 10 games; Indiana (x2), Wisconsin (x2), Ohio St (x2), vs Mich, vs MSU, @Iowa, and @Purdue.
The rest should be wins.
Just have to **** around and find out. I could see several teams in contention late. Nobody, to me, is a runaway. Which means one team will probably go 18-2.
18-2 usually means your a title contender come tourney time, unfortunately it doesn’t look like the conference will have one of those this year (again lol)
Draymonds Game 6 was one of the best games he has ever played in his life . Incredible performance by him .
Poole had a great game 6 as well !
