The Morning After: That’s that

  • Eamonn Brennan 03/24/2008 12:40 pm  
 

College basketball seasons are long and dynamic things. They’re not like college football seasons, which require drilled excellence from the outset and where a midseason loss can kill your chances at winning a truly screwed-up national championship. They’re not like ...

Positive positivity going into tonight

  • Ryan Corazza 03/21/2008 12:48 pm  
 

I don’t think it takes any sort of expert in the field of season definition to tell us the overriding adjective to describe IU’s 2007-2008 season. If Big A were to put up a poll over on the right sidebar ...

Keys to the game: Arkansas

  • Alex Bozich 03/20/2008 6:42 pm  
 

Strong out of the gate: In each of IU’s last three losses, they’ve trailed at halftime and in two of the games (Michigan State and Minnesota), they’ve trailed big early. Playing from behind is not advisable for anybody in the ...

The Morning After: Purdue

  • Eamonn Brennan 02/20/2008 12:20 pm  
 

This is weird. Isn’t it? Isn’t it strange to be in this position right now? To gather, as I did last night, with friends at a bar, to celebrate another game with a Fat Tire and a sandwich, and to ...

The Morning After: Wisconsin

  • Eamonn Brennan 02/14/2008 11:12 am  
 

By far the saddest part about everything that happened yesterday is that a fine performance by the Hoosiers — a well-executed gameplan against a good team — went totally by the wayside. It was overshadowed. Overshadowed not only because Brian ...

White, Gordon help IU pull away against Northwestern

  • Ryan Corazza 02/03/2008 2:35 pm  
 

It took a while for the Hoosiers to pull away in this one — thanks to Northwestern’s back cuts and three-point shooting — but with around eight minutes to go, Eric Gordon hit a few shots, D.J. White chipped in ...

The Four Spot: Who ya got?

  • Alex Bozich 01/30/2008 8:12 am  
 

(Yes, we are aware of the Eric Gordon wrist injury rumors floating around various message boards. We’ll keep you updated if anything official comes to the surface. Now, onward…) Ahh, the four spot. No doubt about it, the lack of ...

Phew!: IU escapes at home against the Illini

  • Ryan Corazza 01/13/2008 7:29 pm  
 

Well, this one certainly didn’t go as planned. The Illini did what they do best — that is, they defended the hell out of IU — and nearly handed the Hoosiers their first loss at home under Kelvin Sampson. Fortunately, ...

The Morning After: Iowa

  • Eamonn Brennan 01/03/2008 8:30 am  
 

Given the difficulty inherent in any Big Ten road game, we should probably just be thankful that IU won last night. After all, the Hoosiers have a history — at least in the past few years — of struggling in ...

Through a public records request, the Indianapolis Star has obtained the names of the parties involved on the impermissible three-way phone calls with Kelvin Sampson. The original report had the names omitted, but the Star requested the report again with ...

The Morning After: Southern Illinois

  • Eamonn Brennan 12/03/2007 11:02 am  
 

First, apologies for the day-lateness. Thanks to an overeager waitress at Duffy’s in Chicago on Saturday night, I never wanted for a fresh Fat Tire, which, as you can imagine, is not the best way to avoid drunkenness if you’re ...
