I'm as content as I have been as an IU fan since the early 90's.  Sure, the 2002 run, the Watshot, the Big Ten titles under Crean, etc. were all exciting and special memories.  But. THIS is the IU bas

A coworker of mine is a huge UNC fan and sent me this article after the game. I particularly appreciated this excerpt about assembly hall, very complementary and pretty cool to read.


“The environment and atmosphere was exactly what the Challenge was supposed to create. Assembly Hall has perfected making Hoosier games the embodiment of a college basketball environment. They're not trying to emulate any professional arenas, and don't even pretend to do so. In the minutes before tipoff, the band took the court when the lights went down, with the band director standing directly above Jones Angell, waving his arms to conduct the fight song on the court. 
            
Eight minutes into the game, the student section broke into a derogatory chant directed at Hubert Davis. The PA announcer immediately admonished them that continuation of the chant could result in a technical foul against the home team. The cheer ceased immediately and was not heard again.
            
Afterwards, ushers surrounded the crimson and cream IU logo at center court. Fans cooperatively lined up to take photos at midcourt, with one usher tasked with taking each photo. When the time allotted on the scoreboard clock for photos expired, everyone dutifully left the arena.
            
It was, quite simply, the kind of place where you want to watch college basketball. There aren't many arenas—or maybe arena is overselling it, maybe it's a gym—like this anymore.

Watched the game this morning and haven't read anyone else's comments.  Here's my take:

1. That was undoubtedly the most complete game we've played inseveral years.  The players played hard, pretty smart and disciplined and showed poise & confidence.

2.  That was a 20-point win.  Officials called it in UNC's favor almost all night, but especially in the first half.  I'm pretty sure if you examinethe refs luggage you'd find all three brought Carolina blue kneepads.  Also, the beefy b10 ref that looks like a cop (Larry Serrano?) stinks.

3. I know if it's not broke, don't try to fix it, but Galloway >> Kopp.

4. Our defense was a thing of beauty.

5. JHS picked a good night to shine again.  Perhaps he's a PTP'er?

Also, and this sounds crazy, but XJ turned in a “quiet” 20/8/4 performance.

I thought JHS actually played his best game of the year so far. He looked like a seasoned player and was definitely up to the challenge as well. IMO, Leaky did nothing to slow him down. As a matter of fact, if I'm JHS, I'm pumped because they put their best defender on me!

After he nailed that 3 when Trimble left him for a dig/double team on TJD, did you catch him "consoling" Trimble on the way back up the court? I'm sure he was saying something like "It's OK man. I would have done the same to Leaky"

I agree! That is why he played 23 mins to Kopps 17!

I fully admit that I complain about officiating a lot. The officiating has a direct impact on these games. 

With that said, my complaints usually aren't that IU isn't fouling, my big complaint is that it's not being called evenly on both ends. 

We had over 50 paint points last night and dominated inside, yet until UNC was fouling on purpose we hadn't taken a single 2nd half free throw. 

I don't think the game was being called evenly on both ends. 

I’m convinced if your playing aggressive defense and not fouling a little…..turn it up to 11

not sure UNC played enough defense inside to foul 

to me the biggest change for you guys over CAM is defensive pressure & intensity

Was finally able to watch the game. We DOMINATED them. No question or argument. Bacot knew he was in trouble early, so the shoulder grabbing excuse. Without the refs that was a 25-30pt beatdown. They literally never had a chance. 

TJD, JHS, and XJ were amazing this game, but Trey was just relentless on both ends. 

This team feels like the IU teams of old when I always expected a win every single game. You just go out there and dominate the other team and walk away with a dub.

THAT is IU basketball.
