jojo123 Posted February 20, 2021 Report Share Posted February 20, 2021 Are any of you on here Cincinnati Reds baseball fans? If so we have had a very long drought. As a fan it seems like an eternity right. Think about this as long as it has been (1990) it has been even longer for all of us Hoosier fans. Our program has fallen to such depths. they went after and took down a dynasty. I hope we can recover, but the history of fallen dynasties returning to its former glory is not! Why did they not go after KY with all the corruption, that even continues today? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
5fouls Posted February 20, 2021 Report Share Posted February 20, 2021 I am a Reds fan. And, at some point, I can't pin down the exact time, I became numb to the losing. The same thing would likely happen at some point with IU basketball should our current trend continue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They tore it down went out and hired the hottest GM in baseball, got a guru coach and the rest is history. Not sure IU would make any of those moves. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some down there haven't wanted IU Hoops to ever be as big as it once was. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IU WAS THE BIG 10 IN MBB WITH CRMK and the NCCA HATED CRMK IU Admin wanted CRMK gone they both got their wishes to come true. IU MBB have not recovered since. Any time we become close to being relevant again (CTC years) we always have the toughest path in the Ncca championship. Or the Admin. puts limits on IU MBB COACH!! I like CTC a lot for bringing us ( IU)back but it was time to move on. I am a CAM fan but not sure if he is the right hire after all. As I said earlier injuries really have set CAM back. But also he is the coach and IT is his WIN-LOSS that matters. Sorry not so much to me at times win or lose but how we play!!! We should be able to play hard every game on CAM or on Players they REPRESENT IU !!!! Edited February 23, 2021 by loviubb Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IU was the only team that could defeat Kentucky when Cody was here and they set up to early!

I have heard from to many people that went through the mock process and guys that have actually been in the room. When they seed and place teams they never look at teams and who the opponent is until they out the teams in the bracket. Also that 2012 IU team wouldn't have won the championship that year even beating UK. Edited February 23, 2021 by IU Scott Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I can't as I would blame them. CRMK Was and still is what a lot of these coaches learned or seen in person how it effects the game!!

This is one of the craziest things I have ever heard. The people in charge of the NCAA and the refs are not the same people that were in charge when RMK was in charge. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
