There is more than just sweet 16's with Beilein though! That's all the farther Crean could make it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, they sure won't. I think they might be more likely if the intervening years weren't so bad, though. Then again, a percentage of the IU fanbase has some wild expectations. I still laugh thinking of Degenerate's post demanding national championships...crazies...every school has them, but IU has a few more than usual.

And that they should. I would put my best non starter defensive player on V. Edwards, and ask him to tell me what flavor of gum Edwards is chewing, when I took my guy out. Again... I am no coach. But that's what I would do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There will always be a certain part of every fan base groaning if they don’t win it every year and IU fans have big expectations, but there’s more to it. The years in between we’ve been awful. I give him a pass on the first 3 years and a thank you for getting us through it, but he had no excuses for those ridiculous lulls. I think that’s how much of the fan base feels too. IU should expect a top 5 finish in the Big Ten every year or 8 of 10 years. He finished 1st twice but t-8th, t-7th and t-10th in 3 of the other years of his last five years. He also wasn’t bringing in Indiana kids and was burning bridges with Indiana HS coaches. Beilein has been top 5 in the Big Ten in 6 of his last 8 years with a NCAA Finals appearance mixed in. I think IU fans would be fine with that. All of that is at a football school too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CapnRon Posted March 18, 2018 Report Share Posted March 18, 2018 Butler leaving Cline wide open toward the end was just as dumb as it gets. The guy only serves one purpose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now can MSU do us a favor and take out Syracuse. Before the game, the announcers claimed it was the NCAA that disallowed Haas from playing. Due to the size of his cast. If true, perhaps the PU medical team can design a cast that passes NCAA standards. After all.... it is an engineering school, isn't it ?

Guest Posted March 18, 2018 Report Share Posted March 18, 2018 If you watched the game, Izzo had his team doing exactly what they should have. They just couldn't make shots. Had them winning it all but I am not sad that they are out. However, this loss was not due to poor coaching Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrflynn03 Posted March 18, 2018 Report Share Posted March 18, 2018 I was hoping butler would win. Forcing a layup in transition after that steal toward the end was not the best option imho. Should have pulled back and set up a play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrsStoller Posted March 18, 2018 Report Share Posted March 18, 2018 I had Purdue winning today (in FF), but I was hoping for a Butler win. Maybe next year. Shoot, next year, it would be nice to have more than 2 teams from Indiana in the tournament! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
