I’ve already said my piece on attendance at Assembly Hall this year, but since then and the addition of the $5 tickets in the balcony, attendance hasn’t been too shabby. If you make it cheaper, they will come. Sunday against ...

Good news: Statistically, Indiana only sort of bad

  • Eamonn Brennan Feb 9, 2009 3
 

So it’s been a pretty horrendous season. We can all agree on that, right? The Devan Dumes suspension is only the most recent metaphorical nut-punch this season has delivered upon fans of Indiana basketball. It’s also been, at times, very ...

IU media relations sent along the following earlier this evening: BLOOMINGTON, Ind. – Indiana University men’s basketball coach Tom Crean has suspended indefinitely junior guard Devan Dumes for his actions during Saturday’s game at Michigan State. “After coming home and ...

Tom Crean (raspy voice and all) on Dan Patrick

  • Alex Bozich Feb 6, 2009 3
 

It’s been a long season for Tom Crean. Maybe that explains the raspy voice that no amount of Starbucks tea can remedy. I mean, really, it’s hurting me just listening to him. Raspiness aside, here’s the audio from his appearance ...

ITH Video: Darwin Davis Jr.

  • Alex Bozich Feb 6, 2009 3
 

Before you watch this lovely piece of footage I edited for your viewing pleasure, I’d like to say a little something about Bloomington South sophomore Darwin Davis Jr. At first glance, he doesn’t scream ‘high major prospect.’ Calling him 5-9 ...

Our always-interesting friends at the Palestra passed along this footage of a joyous crowd after last night’s win, promptly followed by Tom Crean’s decision to tackle IU band director Dave Woodley. Dave, Tom’s right. You are a lightweight. NOW GET ...

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

  • Eamonn Brennan Feb 5, 2009 3
 

The Indiana Hoosiers have not been an easy team to root for this season. In their 11-game losing streak and Big Ten winlessness, they’ve struggled to inspire much of anything in the way of interest, or intrigue, or emotion, really. ...

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 ...
