Somehow, even through all the losses and forehead-slapping moments, this team is making being an IU fan fun again. For the first time in a long time, I'm watching the game for more than the final score—I'm watching because I genuinely love the team and their effort. Like Mike said—reconnecting with the IU basketball identity. I think we will ALL be better fans after this year. That might sound strange, but it's true. From now on, we will take far less for granted.<br><br>And that's got to be a good thing.<br><br>Go Hoosiers! I agree with what MikeinNC touched on earlier.

And that's got to be a good thing.

I keep remembering a team in the 60's with Vernon Payne that went from 9th to 1st in the B10 from one year to the next. Maybe we donot do that but I feel it becoming possible Agree.
