Also I agree with MikeinNC this team will never quit they will play hard every possesion and compete which is all I care about as a fan next year as long as they can put forth more effort then last years team excluding Taberr, DJ, and Bassett in my opinion, then i will be very very pleased with the season. Play hard still a few wins here and there and watch out big ten for the '09 Hoosiers and beyond.

NIT or NCAA no way. now, i think it will be a huge turn around the next year, but this is an exceptional year for iu b-ball. a winning record in the big ten is ridiculous! i hate to think of one year of noth making the tourney, but come on! 18-19 wins? 10-11 wins is realistic.

We can't fantasize about next year. Im as excited as ever for the upcoming season, but we can't be unpatient. IU will be a really good team. It will take some time though. That is why we have Crean! His goal is to rebuild us to a contending national power, and we WILL BE! Just be patient. Our time will come. So watch out. I like ur optimism, but we need to get real!!!!!!!
