dgambill Posted March 17, 2019 Report Share Posted March 17, 2019 We had more chances to get in then any team I know. Simply needed to win one more game likely. We had our play in game against OSU and blew it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoosier Guy Posted March 17, 2019 Report Share Posted March 17, 2019 3 of the 4 teams that were last four in had a worse NET ranking than IU Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rogue3542 Posted March 17, 2019 Report Share Posted March 17, 2019 I think the lesson to be learned here is that the Big Ten has somewhat hurt itself moving to 20 conference games. 2 more OOC cupcakes and IU would have been in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ArchieBall13 Posted March 17, 2019 Report Share Posted March 17, 2019 We were actually a little closer than I thought we would be. Landed ahead of NC state and Clemson. That OSU game was our chance and we blew it, end of story. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ClusterHead Posted March 17, 2019 Report Share Posted March 17, 2019 Arizona State and St. John’s in before IU proves that the committee did a very poor job this year. I would’ve thought UNC Greensboro would make it in with the love for mid-majors this year before those two. And what good is the NET when you don’t even use it? Us being at 54 should have put us over teams with NET ratings of 63 (AZ State) and 73 (St. Johns) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s an interesting statement, can’t argue with it. The goal to increase competition actually backfired for a bubble team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jblaz13 Posted March 17, 2019 Report Share Posted March 17, 2019 Sucks to be wrong about how this would end . I was wrong .Time to move on and talk NIT. Team needs to do the same thing. As in hoping they play hellbent on actually proving they should have been in the field instead of reinforcing why they aren't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seeking6 Posted March 17, 2019 Report Share Posted March 17, 2019 First thoughts. The NET isn't used. Overall wins matter vs type of wins....which means more cupcakes coming on the schedule. Big 10 moving to 20 game conference schedule appears to have backfired. Doesn't help our SOS or seeding. Other things. Purdue as a 3 seed but playing in CT vs Villanova? Cincy a 7 seed but playing UT a 2 seed in Ohio? Sparty getting overall #1 as a 2 seed....while Michigan has much easier path as 2 seed. Kansas if they get past first 2 get to play in Kansas City as 4 seed? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iuthruandthru Posted March 17, 2019 Report Share Posted March 17, 2019 Yep Belmont sure racked up quad one wins. An amazing 2... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If playing tougher teams benefits them down the road, I don;t see anything but a temporary setback. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah the only thing worse would be to put UK in Virginia’s bracket as the #2 in the south so they could play in Louisville. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lizard Posted March 17, 2019 Report Share Posted March 17, 2019 Our team only has itself to blame. And the coaching staff did a poor job of pushing them to their potential. Yet another lousy season in what has become the norm for our once-great program. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HoosierFaithful Posted March 17, 2019 Report Share Posted March 17, 2019 Committee just said they valued win/loss over NET. B1G going to a 20 game conference schedule probably just lost us the tournament (in addition to our own poor play, of course). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
azhoosier Posted March 17, 2019 Report Share Posted March 17, 2019 This was rough. I like the rest of everyone here want IU to get back to worrying about what seed we will be and not are we going to make it in on selection Sunday Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rogue3542 Posted March 17, 2019 Report Share Posted March 17, 2019 I just don't get it; the committee obviously has no idea what it's doing, and the chair is utterly clueless. Belmont racked up quad one wins? 2, and against whom? UCLA is the best team they beat all year. Honestly, the committee just looked at records and ignored everything else. It looks like 19 is the new magic number. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hoopsta007 Posted March 17, 2019 Report Share Posted March 17, 2019 How ridiculous is this garbage? They create this NET and quad system then let Arizona St and St. John’s in. TCU gets hosed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
