After their failed venture in Puerto Rico and subsequent loss to Maryland at home, expectations for this team shifted. Where once IU fans had hopes of flirting with .500, a sobering reality hit: maybe our expectations for this team were ...
Yes, Kentucky is a very talented team, more talented than the Hoosiers. Yes, they’re undefeated against a difficult schedule thus far. Yes, a loss is the likely outcome for IU on Saturday. Yet, there’s at least one area that the ...
THE GOOD: A BIG WIN, SOME CONSISTENT PLAY. First, the big picture: It got a little too close for comfort at the end of the game, and it took longer than some IU fans would have liked, but the Hoosiers ...
THE GOOD: KEEPING IT CLOSE, RESERVE PLAY. Hmmm, where to begin. Let’s take some baby steps here. Save for the last few minutes where it all unraveled, Indiana hung right with Maryland, and during several stretches, outplayed and outworked the ...
This will be a much abbreviated GBU. In fact, it’s just going to be a short list of observations. I only caught the second half, and that was cut short by the Big Ten Network cutting to the Ohio State ...
On Monday, Matt touched on where we are mentally with this team right now. It’s summed up quite nicely with this sentence: “Despite the influx of talent, IU basketball might not live up to the hopes some optimists placed on ...
GOOD: VAST IMPROVEMENT. Yes, Indiana lost, and ended up 0-3 in Puerto Rico. But the Hoosiers looked much better against George Mason this morning than they did against Ole Miss and Boston University. Guys like Bobby Capobianco — seven points, 10 ...
This is going to be more of an open thread due to this game not being televised, and me being in and out on the radio feed. Here are some talking points: + It didn’t seem like Indiana had much ...
THE GOOD: FIRST FIVE MINUTES. This is what this Hoosiers team can be. Running the break efficiently, not letting teams get set up on D, pushing the pace, getting controlled buckets in transition with Jeremiah Rivers and Verdell Jones leading ...
THE GOOD: CHRISTIAN WATFORD AND DEREK ELSTON. Watford continues to impress. He’s been billed as a guy that can do it all, and this game really highlighted that: he got boards, hit shots, created in the lane, got some steals, ...
Rejoice, Hoosier nation. This man is now eligible to play basketball for IU this season: A few minutes ago, Tom Crean dropped this on his Twitter account: Moments ago we just learned that Bawa is completely eligible. If you see ...
Remember Friday when I surmised that maybe, just maybe, this olive branch extended by the alumni might have healed the last wound standing between Bob Knight and IU? Yeah, about that. “The Indiana University administration recently made a public announcement ...
Yesterday, the Herald-Times reported that anonymous donors hooked Indiana up with $75,000, which will be used to reach a lawsuit settlement with Bob Knight, the last of such unresolved disputes between the former coach and the university. The agreement was ...
Tom Crean met with the media after practice this afternoon. Here’s some video of the Q&A session, via IU Athletics:
Hoosier Hysteria is on the horizon and it’s time for Inside the Hall’s player-by-player breakdown of the 2009-2010 Indiana Hoosiers. Today: Jeremiah Rivers. There is no player on this 2009-10 Hoosiers squad I’m more interested in seeing on the court ...
