Hoosier loss overshadowed by Dumes’ shenanigans

  • Alex Bozich 02/07/2009 7:11 pm  
 

I considered boring you with another AP style recap of IU’s 75-47 loss at Michigan State, but as Devan Dumes was tossed shortly after throwing his third elbow of the game, I quickly changed direction. I realize it’s a long ...

The Morning After: It’s a win, and I feel fine

  • Eamonn Brennan 02/05/2009 11:39 am

  • Alex Bozich 02/04/2009 9:34 pm  
 

The 11-game losing streak is over. In a game that looked eerily similar to earlier contests the Hoosiers haven’t been able to close out down the stretch, Tom Crean’s club reversed the trend and fended off Iowa 68-60 in front ...

The Morning After: Minnesota

  • Eamonn Brennan 01/26/2009 9:12 am  
 

All we are past the mopey part of the season now? I’ll admit, I’ve gone through some weird attitudinal shifts toward the 2008-09 Indiana Hoosiers — going from depression to blind faith to cheeriness and back again a couple of ...

Free throws doom Hoosiers in ninth straight loss

  • Alex Bozich 01/25/2009 2:50 pm

Good, Bad and Ugly: Illinois

  • Alex Bozich 01/10/2009 5:06 pm  
 

THE GOOD (HEY, WE HAD TO LIST SOMETHING, RIGHT?): Nick Williams. That pretty much sums it up. On a day when the Hoosiers came out with far less fight than needed to win in a hostile environment, Williams was the ...

The Morning After: Michigan, or clapping alone

  • Eamonn Brennan 01/08/2009 7:30 am  
 

Hey, so that was fun, right? Haha, just kidding! That wasn’t fun at all! That was precisely as much fun as a rusty ballpeen hammer to the eye socket, only less violent, so long as you don’t count “throwing an ...
