fell asleep 😔really happy to have a game tonight. it seemed obvious that all X was out to do was set his teammates up. that is huge. we're about 99% sure Galloway will still be out tonight correct? oh well, there's always a chance.

it really is

penn st has looked as bad as a team can look and we are up 1

crap. let's not forget we are famous for bad ending to halves

pretty sure Malik not only leads the league in fouls, but leads the league in thinking he never fouls.

definitely not a true fan

that was quick

it's what a true fan would do

i honestly can't decide. i always want more IU bball. i'm probably sticking with that.

Mike Woodson can't get them over the hump because Mike Woodson isn't out there shooting shots or making plays. Mike Woodson is doing the best job Mike Woodson can do. It's not on Mike Woodson. What is Mike Woodson supposed to do when Galloway is unexpectedly injured and they only have 12 scholarship players. If you think this is on Mike Woodson, clearly you sir are not a true fan!

didn't realize Walker is listed as questionable with Galloway. so we'll have Leal and Sparks off the bench? wish we had another scholarship player.

love this dynamic duo!

Penny. LOL. another great coach.

pretty sure i do not fit the definition of a true fan 😥

i'm not sure why people feel confident about this one, but i hope you're right! i get that we are playing well recently, but haven't exactly played great teams. if Galloway is out (which i thought was a definite?) i have a hard time being confident when we are 0-2 against them this season. as for the XJ/Galloway thing - i would rather have Trey than X if i had to pick.

without Galloway, i have my doubts. sure don't want to bow out this round though. i'll have my game face on.

I am really ready for a game! I was actually feeling optimistic about winning these first two rounds. Then my terrible memory made me look up the results of our first two games vs PSU. Then I was thinking given the choice, I'd rather be missing X than Galloway. Now I'm bummed, but still excited for an IU bball game.

BTW - has anyone seen @IU Scott lately? i'm kind of obsessed with him.

wait. who are you!? have you given up all hope that we'll get a good coach soon?

couldn't get over the hump

guess we need another update 😥

a big part of me being wrong about how good this team would be is how bad he has been. even when healthy, he has just not been good. he somehow manages to push all of the wrong buttons. as down as i am about him, i promise i was giving him a ton of credit coming in. unfortunately he was not good before the injury and hasn't been good after. now we can say he is better than the other possibilities on this roster, but i'm not even sure about that. i still contend that he gets out of position defensively as much or more than anyone. i still contend that he kills the offense even when he is playing fairly well. what's even more discouraging though is that now we need him to play huge minutes and Leal is the only option off the bench right? or will Gunn actually play? either way, ugh. oh well, we'll see soon enough! sure wish we had another scholarship open that we could have used on another guard.

i would really really like to be shocked with an NCAA bid this season. now to be clear - when i saw this roster, i thought we could be a top 25 team, 20 + win team, and definitely in the tourney. anyway, with the way this season has gone, i wrote that off a long time ago. now that said, i am very worried about beating even Penn St. without Galloway. not because i think he is a stud. it's just who gets that role? i mean i guess we start our wonderful leader XJ, Cupps, Taco, Reneau, Ware... then Leal and Walker off the bench?

Kev - no one likes a quitter! don't leave me alone in here. Help us @Indykev you're our only hope!

back to back freshmen of the year show good recruiting. both were 5 stars. not shocking. tough to get better awards when you squeak into 6th place and had been much lower than that all season.
