Sorry, I’m a little late on posting this. We got some time (and I got deservedly mocked for asking a question that got so jumbled up in my brain that I didn’t understand) with Tom Crean today. The first, and ...
It really isn’t fair. These words aren’t meant to sound petulant. They aren’t meant to sound like whining. They might sound trite, but I can’t really help that. The definition of the word “trite,” according to Merriam Webster online, reads ...
OK, here is an attempt to further smooth out the questions surrounding the Guy-Marc Michel ruling, announced tonight. We’ll start with the timeline. Indiana first found out about Michel’s amateurism issues over the summer. Michel played for SLUC Nancy, a ...
Listen to Indiana head coach Tom Crean and Derek Elston address the media following IU’s 72-56 win over North Carolina Central in the embedded media players below: Crean [audio:TomCreanpostNCCU.mp3] Elston [audio:DerekElstonPostNCCU.mp3]
OK so let’s start layering this commitment saga: The Indianapolis Star posted a report on its website saying that Yogi Ferrell will commit to Indiana tomorrow night at Park Tudor, per “multiple sources.” Only trouble is, both Hugh Kellenberger and ...
BLOOMINGTON — I’m sitting here in front of my computer, and trying to figure out what to write, and it is next to impossible. We could touch on Tom Pritchard’s impressive day (Five blocks? Dang.), or Maurice Creek’s return to ...
It’s time for Inside the Hall’s team-by-team breakdown of the Big Ten Conference. Today: The Wisconsin Badgers. I think we can all agree by now that anyone who doubts a Bo Ryan-coached team does so at his own peril. Not ...
We’re so 2004. Yes, it’s true, Inside the Hall is adding to our media arsenal a weekly podcast. It’s not Bill Simmons — yet — but hopefully it fills a little bit of a void in the IU basketball world. ...
BLOOMINGTON — Let it be pointed out that, on the night Tom Crean cemented his first-ever 3-0 start at Indiana, his team struggled. The Hoosiers shot barely over 38 percent, Verdell Jones had more turnovers (7) than points (5) and ...
So it’s come to my attention that it came to Mike Pegram’s attention that Indiana students aren’t the most reliable folks in the world, nor the most polite. Indeed, their rather meager attendance and vulgar performance last night wasn’t exactly ...
BLOOMINGTON — Some of the old weaknesses remain. Surely, you remember them: the endless string of frustrations, the turnovers and sloppy offensive sets and lack of low-post production. It helped that no one seemed interested in defending Verdell Jones within ...
Cody Zeller’s commitment was always expected to immediately impact Indiana’s overall recruiting picture, particularly with Zeller’s close friend Yogi Ferrell. Hearing the words today made presumption reality, according to Ferrell’s father, Kevin Ferrell Sr. “I think it does accelerate it,” ...
So I’ll be the first to admit that I didn’t visually see any of Monday’s exhibition against Ferris State, though I did listen to basically the entire second half through the watchful words of Don Fischer (and Royce Waltman). So, ...
It’s time for Inside the Hall’s team-by-team breakdown of the Big Ten Conference. Today: The Penn State Nittany Lions. If I asked for the five longest-tenured coaches in the Big Ten, (and you weren’t, you know, reading a post entitled ...
I know Cody Zeller is overloading everybody’s circuits right now, so this might be flying a little low on the radar, but it is far more immediate, nonetheless. It’s also pretty much, dare I say, a black hole of information ...
It’s time for Inside the Hall’s team-by-team breakdown of the Big Ten Conference. Today: The Purdue Boilermakers. Travis Carroll, and Patrick Bade. Purdue fans, let me introduce your new best friends. It would be folly to say that Purdue’s season ...
