Our next 5: @ Northwestern @ #7 OSU Minnesota Michigan State Rutgers JUST W I N !!!!! Exactly what I was saying earlier this week when the doom and gloom bus was full capacity. Get this one win and we can go on a run similar to what Rutgers just did. I'll let the negative folks hang out with themselves. Huge win today for the Hoosiers.

Hippopotamo Posted February 7, 2021 Report Share Posted February 7, 2021 Rob played so much better down the stretch. That was huge for this team to pull it out. I’m also loving the development of our freshmen. All of them look like they belong and are getting better. A few spot minutes from Stewart and Brunk near the end of the year could be huge for this team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lizard Posted February 7, 2021 Report Share Posted February 7, 2021 Let's see: Played tough in coming back from big deficits (2x) Hit Free throws down the stretch; Played lockdown D most of the game (Iowa shot 38% according to Fisch) Trayce and Race played like men on both ends. Only 9 TOs. And another top 10 win. Those things are enough to make ME happy. Let's have some more of those... please Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoosier987 Posted February 7, 2021 Report Share Posted February 7, 2021 Great win! Seems like every game we play goes down to the wire. Feels good to finally come out on top in one of these. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't have to make this bigger than it is. But at the heart of it, I've lost an element of caring... I'm really apathetic because big wins haven't snowballed into any sort of momentum before. JMHO.

FW_Hoosier Posted February 7, 2021 Report Share Posted February 7, 2021 Iowa gonna Iowa... It is absolutely hilarious to watch their overrated teams fall apart down the stretch every year. Fran is a joke. But it’s to IU’s benefit. This was a must-win and will look good on the tournament resume. Another good game from the freshmen and the bigs, and Franklin flashes the clutch gene again. Gotta take advantage of this relatively soft stretch coming up.

Stlboiler23 Posted February 7, 2021 Report Share Posted February 7, 2021 Congrats on the win for many reasons: 1. Always funny seeing a Frantrum meltdown 2. Supposedly one of the best teams Iowa has had in decades is now behind Purdue in the standings lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What a freakin win. I don't care what ya'll say, we ARE going in the right direction, albeit slowly at times. No one is upset at the win today. We are all happy Hoosier fans today! It just seems like every game is a microcosm of the season....some great moments...some really bad ones...some head scratching coaching decsisions with our rotations...in the end we won today...if we can start stringing together wins then you will see us headed in the right direction but we are pretty much 500...and that is the definition of no direction...it isn’t forward it isn’t backwards it isn’t up and it isn’t down. We’ve always had the ability to be better...I just hope we can put it all together and put the program changing discussion behind us...but we have to do it on the court.

Play young guys. He plays the young guys more and more every game. If you think he is going to go from giving Lander one two-minute stretch per game to playing him 30-minutes I don't know what to tell you, but I don't think a coach in America would do that with how Lander has played. He's letting him play gradually more each game and play through mistakes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absolutely no consistency from game to game. (Why am I sour? I have no idea.) Well, we get zero consistency from the upper class guards on the team. I’d be Ok with letting the freshman have their consistent baptism by fire for the rest of the season, while using the uppers for spot minutes. We have the one the the highest paid coaches in the country, and it’s time he started making these rough decisions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m glad to see upperclass guys stepped up when they needed to. However, they’ve been playing terribly lately. Someone from the media needs to ask Archie why he stayed with the starting lineup for the start of the second half when guys like Lander, Geronimo, and Leal were pivotal in keeping that game close (or frankly why he doesn’t reward more playing time for guys that are in grooves/playing aggressive and confidently).
