TheWatShot Posted April 5, 2022 Report Share Posted April 5, 2022 I saw another one of these somewhere else, I think it was Sporting News. I had to laugh at what it said about Kentucky. Basically that if they get so and so and do such and such next year, UK fans will forget all about the St. Peter's loss. I thought, does this guy know UK fans? Anything short of a national title next year won't make them forget about that loss. I'm not sure some of them would get over it even if they won it all. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Miss tournament and then get beat by a 15 seed….the pitch forks are out and yes anything short of winning conference and final 4 will be seen as failure. Especially with kids now saying publically they are only looking at coming for one semester and improving draft stock. Even if they all think it they usually don’t come out and say it….they are now. UK fans I know are pissed at what Cal has done. Throw in Arkansas is shaping up for a great year and could get real dark in Lexington.

Perhaps so with guys coming and going as they are, but I believe it is good to do it now. Season is fresh in their minds. Also gives us a chance to see what the media thinks about teams for next year. CBS updated theirs periodically up until the season. I love it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
addictedtoIU Posted April 5, 2022 Report Share Posted April 5, 2022 Ok, projected #21 was based on TJD and RT coming back for their last seasons. This doesn't mean anything other than Jeff Borzello getting paid for the article. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And Michigan and Illinois the only two teams ahead of the Hoosiers we're projected Top 20 only if Kofi and Hunter come back. The B1G is going to have to earn their respect next season unlike this year. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Officer Obie Posted April 6, 2022 Report Share Posted April 6, 2022 I'm sorry, but IU is nowhere near as large and talented as the teams I just saw play in the Final Four. Not even close. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not even close. I feel like our defense was built to contend with those teams but our offense lacks the fire power. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
