CauseThatsMyDJ Posted June 8, 2018 Report Share Posted June 8, 2018 http://www.espn.com/mens-college-basketball/story/_/id/23699261/bracketology-joe-lunardi-big-ten-rises-post-nba-draft-early-entry-deadline No major conference came through the draft testing process in better shape. For every Kevin Huerter (Maryland) and Tony Carr (Penn State), there are plenty of high-level returnees. Purdue (Nojel Eastern and Carsen Edwards) and Nebraska (Isaac Copeland Jr. and James Palmer Jr.) were doubly fortunate, and Michigan State (Nick Ward), Michigan (Charles Matthews), Wisconsin (Ethan Happ) and Indiana (Juwan Morgan) received similarly good news. Speaking of the Hoosiers, there is also the not-so-small matter of 6-foot-6 incoming freshman Romeo Langford. The country's top uncommitted recruit heading into the offseason, Langford's presence in crimson and cream accelerates Archie Miller's rebuilding project and should be enough for Indiana to hear its name called on Selection Sunday. http://www.espn.com/mens-college-basketball/bracketology He has us as a 9 seed in Duke and Kentucky's region.

Reacher Posted June 8, 2018 Report Share Posted June 8, 2018 Still not showing us that much respect. I'd be disappointed if we end up a 9 seed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FKIM01 Posted June 8, 2018 Report Share Posted June 8, 2018 Yeah...I hope our players are really digesting all the disrespect they are getting. ...and Nojel Eastern listed as a high-level returnee...someone has been reading our forum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
5fouls Posted June 8, 2018 Report Share Posted June 8, 2018 Lunardi figured he would look like an idiot if he put us in at a 5 or 6 after not having us in at all. So, he tries to hide us on the 8/9 line. News for him. He's still an idiot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dbmhoosier Posted June 8, 2018 Report Share Posted June 8, 2018 He's an idiot. The NCAA committee doesn't allow regular season rematches until the Sweet 16. We obviously play Duke this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
milehiiu Posted June 8, 2018 Report Share Posted June 8, 2018 To be picking Brackets at this time of the season, is more than idiotic...... it "Lunardic". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't have to go far to verify that. Purdue played Butler in the round of 32 this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IowaHoosierFan Posted June 8, 2018 Report Share Posted June 8, 2018 I hate hate hate that they always put us in Kentucky's bracket. Like there is no other way for us to advance unless we pass Kentucky first. I get it, its a marque match-up for TV but come on. We're tied at the hip with them.

But the committee is more worried about good matchup instead of who really belong on what seed and in what location. A few years ago there was some moving around for us to play Kentucky, OSU to play OU, and a few others. This is the crap i hate to see in the tourney.
