Thoughts on a 90-79 win against Marshall: Adversity came to Assembly Hall tonight in the form of the Marshall Thundering Herd. Indiana’s defense, so stout and so dominant in the first 20 minutes of action so far this season, was ...
Thoughts on a 70-35 win against the Tigers: It’s that time of the year. With a holiday approaching, fewer students in the stands and another inferior opponent to play, the energy inside Assembly Hall this evening was low. And at ...
Thoughts on a 76-44 win against the Ragin’ Cajuns: Another game, another win, another dominant defensive first half from the Indiana Hoosiers. Lousiana isn’t a great 2-point shooting team so far, as it made just 31 percent of its 2s ...
Thoughts on a 76-74 win against St. John’s: Trayce Jackson-Davis and Joel Soriano jawed early as Assembly Hall rocked and roared. From the jump this was a spirited, up-tempo affair between two teams believing it could impose its will on ...
Thoughts on an 85-49 win against the Huskies: While the Hoosiers emerged victorious on Tuesday night against Eastern Michigan, the ghost of the Archie Miller era haunted the second half. Indiana failed to put the Eagles away, as a 21-point ...
Thoughts on a 68-62 win against Eastern Michigan: Three offseason talking points we know to be true. (Well, as true as anything can be after just one game, that is.) 1) Mike Woodson’s steady drumbeat of the “defense being ahead ...
Thoughts on a 61-50 loss to the Scarlet Knights: Here we were again. The Hoosiers starting strong, instilling some hope, only to let it slip away once more. It wasn’t as sudden or as drastic, the Hoosiers fans in attendance ...
Thoughts on a 67-58 loss to the Boilermakers: Five straight losses to end the regular season, nine straight losses against Purdue. These are your Indiana Hoosiers, limping to the finish line in another disappointing season under Archie Miller. Perhaps the ...
Thoughts on a 64-58 loss to the Spartans: The Hoosiers fought hard in this game. They battled in a foul-heavy, ugly, offensively-challenged contest. But in the end, in a game they absolutely had to have to cling to any NCAA ...
Thoughts on a 73-57 loss to the Wolverines: In its previous two losses to Michigan State and Rutgers, Indiana collapsed over the final 30 minutes of action, blowing huge leads in the process. That didn’t happen today. But even though ...
Thoughts on a 74-63 loss to Rutgers: Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, we’ve reached the low point of the season. This was a disastrous performance from the Hoosiers tonight, a re-run of how things went against Michigan State, yet ...
Thoughts on a 78-71 loss to Michigan State: This one had all the makings of an early blowout. The Spartans turned the ball over like mad. On the other end, Trayce Jackson-Davis and Race Thompson got the ball with ease ...
Thoughts on an 82-72 win against the Golden Gophers: The Hoosiers absolutely needed this game tonight. Their play matched the desperation of the moment. The energy was up. The start was better. It wasn’t all perfect, but it was enough ...
Thoughts on a 78-59 loss to the Buckeyes: Dig an early hole against struggling Iowa or Northwestern squads? Climbing out isn’t so hard. But against Ohio State, a potential No. 1 seed in the NCAA tournament? You stay stuck down ...
Thoughts on a 79-76 win against the Wildcats: This had all the makings of another letdown after beating a ranked opponent. The Hoosiers came oh so close to being 2-10 in the Archie Miller era in games following a win ...
Thoughts on a 67-65 win against the Hawkeyes: Here we were once again. Indiana right in the thick of it late against one of the better teams in the conference, let alone the country. But the stakes were even higher ...
