Sampson's hard-nosed leadership style was better for keeping our players focussed; Dan's personality and leadership prevents good coaching contact with our type of players. We have slipped badly and will not survive the BTT or the NCAA. We still need a change of leadership for Athletic Director. I hope that President McRobbie realizes that the next few months are a critical time for important decisions. He needs to confer with knowledgeable IU sources about the future because the flagship of IU sports is falling apart at the seams. This team is just trying to get through the season.

Indiana needs a guy who values the same things…………..it is a proven formula….that everyone is using……

Just ask Butler and IUPUI….two more Indiana schools who put a HIGH priority on keeping Indiana kids in Indiana to sustain success, and if they get a 5-star guy fine, if not, they have 4-6 kids who will be with the program for 3-4 years…..hence…

J.Johson
George Hill
Hummell and Martin
E. Moore
AJ GRAVES
Matt Howard

and the list goes on and on………….”Indiana” kids who understand how important Indiana University basketball is to the the school and fans, would NOT have let a Big Ten title get away like these guys did in the past week.

Dak, although I have seen some improvements, it may be too late, we will see….But I want a guy on the sidelines next year who worries less about the 5 star ebanks kids and more about building a program with kids that care about what
Indiana basketball means……..Hoosier Hysteria is not a slogan, it is Indiana basketball.
Give me sustained success more than instant success…….

I think this year KS did a disservice to Eric Gordon, by not “coaching” him but giving him the keys to the car and let him drive it how he wants…..what a dumb A…..

I look forward to Derek Elston, Matt Roth, and Tom Pritchard….but I look forward to them being coached not befriended.

We moved the ball on the zone and had open 3's. We locked down Battle on D. We actually had a purpose of getting the ball to DJ and often succeeded. Gordon controlled his drives to the basket and actually tried a dish but DJ was not ready for it etc. Good signs, bad result.<br><br>W/o Ellis and not going deep into the bench early in the season we have a poor rotation now. Too many guys playing too many minutes to play well all game long. Stemler and Taber are the only ones getting rest....weird uh ? Mike : I agree w you. We moved the ball on the zone and had open 3's.
