Wisky-Iowa is a great up and down game. 69-67 Wisky with 2:16 left. Potter and Bohannon trading baskets for a while...

The quickness of decisions on the court is much better than IU.   Hoosiers usually seem tentative.

Starts at the top — Archie looks and acts the exact same way.  

exactly,,, i agree.   this melancholy comes from coaching style

I'd love to see even an ounce of that enthusiasm from IU's players. Our players walk out onto the court like zombies for the tip. 

oh gee,   could it be they are tired playing hard defense and a boring stifling offense style

Good deal for Maryland today....helps us since we beat them. Beat Sparty on Tuesday and I think people will inch back up in those seats by the weekend.

My comment isn't a cause for a status of the program talk....just saying right now we have a chance. Get Tuesday and see what happens. NCAA will take 9 from the Big 10. Why not us be #9 instead of Sparty? 

one reason they go,,,,sparty beat hoosiers in key game at AH

Sparty at Maryland today. Who do we want? 

Maryland after this one has Northwestern/Penn St so assuming they'll get to 10 wins even if they lose. So they'll be in. Maybe our last chance is to have Sparty lose today and to us Tuesday followed by back to back Michigan losses? That would put them at 7-13 in conference play and maybe just maybe the tourney selection crew would pick us as 9th team from conference? 

theyll be in....turgeon is a good coach and his players grow, and respond to his positivity.

Watching a lot of games I just don't understand why so many players have trouble scoring inside right around the basket.  I see very few pump fakes to get the defense off balance or any real post moves.  it is just dribbling your defender down to the basket and then just throws the ball up hoping it goes in.  Players just aren't able or comfortable playing with their back to the basket.  The one of the best I have seen is a 6'6 player in Liddell of OSU.

Also dont get why more players will avoid using the glass.   

Maryland beats MSU by 18 at home.  They are improving the last few weeks.   Sad to remember IU losing at home to MSU in key game.  Hard to root for a team that shows little growth.  

Halftime in Ann Arbor: Hawkeyes’ guards contribute 18 with 7-8 shooting.    Could our guards do this even at AH against  Rutgers, MSU, PSU or NB?   Haha
