Looking more and more like we picked the wrong year to schedule a weak non-conference slate... Big Ten getting slaughtered to start the year. Might be one of those seasons where the conference only gets 5 in the tournament. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Two years ago, 22-10 Nebraska and 21-13 Penn State both missed the tournament. I’ll never understand why a season where we missed the tourney with a 17-15 record has IU fans so convinced that getting 20 wins is a magical ticket to the tournament no matter how weak the schedule is. With our weak non-conference schedule and a down Big Ten, going 13-11 against the power conference teams on our schedule this season very well may not cut it. And that’s assuming we sweep the cupcakes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Made Iowa look a few steps slow and unathletic. When they had Kriener and Garza pulled away from the basket it looked easy to get into the lane. Should be a fun team to watch this season.

And that’s assuming we sweep the cupcakes. Look at the two names you mentioned. PSU basketball is, for the most part, the equivalent of IU football. In cases like this, whether it's conscious or not, name value matters. Right, wrong or indifferent, some committee members will perceive a 22-10 Indiana team as stronger than a 22-10 PSU team. The reverse happens all the time. How many times have we seen a football recruit's ranking go down after committing to IU? That said, how about we just take care of business so that this isn't even relevant? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get smoked by Depaul (who has been worse than Rutgers for decades), arena is half full....lose a top 60 in state recruit to your in state rival (after being on him the longest), and all of this in year 10 for Fran. Saw this stat online so no clue if if true. It's been over 800 days since Iowa/Fran had a kid accept scholarship at Iowa who had an offer at another P5 school (not counting his son of course).

I always bring things back to IU. At least so far on paper....kind of wish we played Iowa/Northwestern twice this year. Only get them once and both are home games. Guess I shouldn't complain but would be nice to get one of them on the road too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I watched the game and it looked liked a varsity team vs a JV team. Iowa is going to have a hard time on defense this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seeking6 Posted November 12, 2019 Report Share Posted November 12, 2019 Kansas lands 5 star guard in Bryce Thompson. Carolina was involved but probably bowed out after their recent haul. Seems like notice of allegations or whatever the NCAA threw at Self doesn't matter to recruits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s not like the money stopped flowing. Same reason why I don’t get people dismissing Memphis because of what happened with Wiseman. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IUFLA Posted November 13, 2019 Report Share Posted November 13, 2019 Memphis falls to a shorthanded Oregon team. Quinones had 16 but on 4/15 from the field (2/9 from 3). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seeking6 Posted November 13, 2019 Report Share Posted November 13, 2019 One last comment on UK loss. Sometimes I like to just look at the box score to see if it tells a story with certain numbers. I know Evansville played well enough to win but just looking at the numbers I think you could say it's not like they outstanding either. 30% from 3. Aces had more turnovers, same fouls....doubled up at FT Line. Guess my point is this. It's not like Evansville set the world on fire last night.
