I thought they won it most years.An off-season* banner would be almost guaranteed with the addition of Love.
No surprise IU fans are salivating at the thought of winning it back to back years.

I wish. I was talking $5 scratch off. It's worth $50k until I scratch it.That $50 will buy someone a few chicky nugs for sure.
At first i Was like---"what so bad..."Saw this post on Indiana's 247 with almost 130 likes, and boy did I laugh:
"My $0.02:
Indiana is about winning the 6th National Championship. The fans want that 6th banner. The program has the resources to get it. Woody has stated that a title is the ultimate goal.
There is no player available right now that raises Indiana's ceiling like Caleb Love. He is a tourney-tested, game-changing bucket getter. If Indiana is serious about that 6th banner (and I think it is), Love was and is the best player available for our roster. He makes IU's starting five startlingly talented.
He also lowers our floor. He might make Coach Woodson's job more difficult. I'm fine with that. We're aiming at banners. Not beating Purdue. Not tournament berths. Not Big Ten Titles. Not Helm's trophies.
If you can get Caleb Love, you get Caleb Love, and you don't apologize for it."

Don’t go & get all reasonable on us.I don’t understand the infatuation with posting home board material here but whatever.
I can only speak for myself but my expectations remain building momentum for the program while making the tournament every year. As they stabilize the program, my expectations will increase accordingly but I also don’t ever expect them to regain national power status. It’s not operationally feasible. That being said, it’s ridiculous to not be excited at a top 10 recruit commitment. That obviously doesn’t guarantee team success, but it’s way better than the alternative.
Excuse my milquetoast take and carry on with your salivation at home board posts.
Hey fück you you dumb bitch I hate youDon’t go & get all reasonable on us.
DickinsonI can't think of a comparably more overrated player in the history of the college game than Love.
Any nominees?
Home board posters are weird. Reading another teams homeboard is even weirder.Saw this post on Indiana's 247 with almost 130 likes, and boy did I laugh:

Oh, no. My feelings. I’d bet my house you’ve been on another team’s home board. And it’s certainly not as weird as getting banned and pretending to be someone else.Home board posters are weird. Reading another teams homeboard is even weirder.
I thought he was a locker room problem. Could have made that up but I believe that's what I heard. I don't think the juice is worth the squeeze.I have some doubts about the guy, but he'd give you a dude that can be a big time bucket getter. I'd prefer he go elsewhere.
Yeah that’s the scuttlebutt - that he was a big reason for their crap this past season.I thought he was a locker room problem. Could have made that up but I believe that's what I heard. I don't think the juice is worth the squeeze.
he'd be a great get for iuSign me up for 1 Cam Spencer please
Doesn't seem like it would happen. Seems as though he's got a couple schools already in mind.Sign me up for 1 Cam Spencer please
Agreed. Just some wishful thinkingDoesn't seem like it would happen. Seems as though he's got a couple schools already in mind.
All-time douchebag team for sure, but I wouldn't consider him overrated.Dickinson
One and dones that stay for 4-5 years aren't overrated?All-time douchebag team for sure, but I wouldn't consider him overrated.

I don't remember him coming into college as a one-and-done. Thinking back, he outperformed expectations. Of course, with NIL, guys like Dickwad are staying around longer. Trayce Jackson-Davis would be a better example of a one-and-done that didn't leave. And in his case was the right move.One and dones that stay for 4-5 years aren't overrated?
I don't think you can blanket statement "one and done" types. If they stay longer than one or two years I don't believe that makes them overrated, at all.One and dones that stay for 4-5 years aren't overrated?
At Michigan, he loved playing the role of pot stirrer/villain. Here's one example.Curious....what's he done to earn the d-bag reputation? I didn't watch a ton of B1G games.
Dickinson was never supposed to be a one and doneOne and dones that stay for 4-5 years aren't overrated?
I was being dramatic. He was plenty hyped.Dickinson was never supposed to be a one and done
Smells like a 6th place conference finish.Sounding like Shannon is returning and will announce soon, RayJ Dennis will commit after Shannon, and Coleman Hawkins is a 50/50 but is trending towards a return if they both are on the roster.
Tick Tock
Once I see what the final roster looks like? Sure thing. What’d you have in mind?Wanna bet?
Well you just said they’d finish 6th, so my bet would be they finish Top 5.Once I see what the final roster looks like? Sure thing. What’d you have in mind?
I’ll consider it. I want to see what their final roster looks like before pulling the trigger.Well you just said they’d finish 6th, so my bet would be they finish Top 5.
Avatar bet on that?

I’d make a comment about Minnesota, but you aren’t relevant enough to give a single shit.Illinois sucks pp
Fun exercise, what D1 conference would you go down to before Minnesota wins a conference championship in any of the last 3 seasons?Illinois sucks pp

Next year will be the worst Michigan basketball team in over 2 decades and we’ll still finish ahead of Minnesota in the conference. You know what else happened two decades ago? 😝Exactly.
Michigan looks at Minnesota and thinks ‘that’s me’ now.
