This is maddening…we leave Klesmit open on two consecutive possessions. It’s like we don’t know he can shoot.

I’d hate for that to happen, but that wouldn’t surprise me at all.

Typical ending to the half…a stupid foul that’s puts an automatic FT shooter on the line, and then we can’t even get a shot off on our end.

What a stupid foul by XJ.

Somebody tell me please why Mgbako is out. We’re down by 13 and we take out one of the two guys on the team that can score.

I hate to say it, but this team has zero competitive spirit.

It’s starting to slip away.

I really like Galloway, but it’s hard to understand how a senior can play so poorly on the road. He’s a completely different player at home.

Real good

Couldn’t have said it better. I was a teenager during the 1970-71 season when Hoosier basketball really started to take off with George McGinnis and Steve Downing. Knight followed shortly thereafter, and we all know that story. Some will say we’re “old timers” and we need to stop living in the past, and maybe so, but I’ll be a Hoosier forever, and will never lose faith that our time will come again. In today’s world with a mix of good recruiting and the right moves in the portal, you can turn a team into a contender overnight. Let’s hope that happens sooner rather than later. Unfortunately, it doesn’t look like it’s happening this year, so I’ll try to enjoy the wins rather than letting the loses ruin my day.

He definitely gets one more year, and probably a couple more, if we somehow make the tournament this year.

Top recruits don’t come to a school to sit at home in March, and watch other teams compete for the national championship.

I agree, I’m more concerned that he’ll transfer than go pro next year.

I’m always hopeful, but I’m not expecting a win on Friday night…so surprise me. 😊

I’ve got a lot of gripes about last night’s game (mainly the officiating), but let’s give Purdue some credit. They were the better team. Edey did what he does and we couldn’t stop him, and their guards hit big shots when it mattered most. We were outplayed and out toughed. It’s that simple, so let’s move on to Friday’s game, and hope for the best in Madison.

I just saw that… oh, what could have been.

The refs took us out of the game in the 1st half. We played them even in the 2nd half, but it was just too much to overcome.

Our guards outscored 27-11 so far, and down 13 pts at the FT line.

Giving up a wide open 3 at the buzzer to end the half is our season in a nutshell….sad.

I very rarely complain about officiating, but the refs have absolutely taken this game away from us .

Edey throws an elbow every time he makes a move.

The difference is they have shooters and we don’t. 😕

7 fouls to 1

Predictions - does XJ start tonight?

If we lose, it won’t be because of Edey. It’ll be because we couldn’t stop Loyer, Smith and Jones.
