Chicity….ITH has saved me some cash from joinging peegs or nation, good websites, but I get the same info here and some helluva bloggers who run this thing too. Good guys who post on here also……the amazing thing about Indiana basketball is, it is year around, once a coach is hired we will be on here thrilled and singing his praises or bitchin' about greeny and the blue ribbon panel…..

Then we will look at the recruiting class, summer teams, etc. It just keeps rollin'

I can't blame the kids, because they're kids. Sampson is the adult, and he blew the best gig of his life.
It was a hard season. But, you can't keep a good program down. It may take a few years, but we'll be back.

great post e. i will disagree with you on one point. i don't know that i'm angry with the players, but i am close. the reason is that no matter how difficult things got (and the phone thing and ks leaving WERE difficult), i can understand the players not playing as well, but i can't accept their obvious lack of effort. over the last eight games there were too many examples of a lack of hustle and too many players whose body language gave away the thoughts in their heads. when things get bad, the basketball court is supposed to be the one place where they can forget their problems for 40 minutes and just do what they do best. i equally blame dd for not doing whatever it takes to get the guys to play with an “us against the world” mentality, but at the end of the day it's the kids that have to give it their all on the court, not dd.

i'm really hoping for a head coach who is a supreme motivator; someone who can come in and get the players to buy in to a “we're not rebuilding, we're already good” mentality. (is it a sign of nerdness if i used a semicolon on a blog comment)? i can't get visions of bruce pearl walking in to a recruit's family room in a crimson sport coat out of my head.
