Open thread: Will IU win again this season?

  • Alex Bozich Feb 18, 2009  
 

It’s been a good start to the week here at ITH: Ryan’s rebuttal of the totally off-base Deadspin piece, Bawa Muniru chatter, Dominique Keller’s apparent hatred for IU and continuation of the EJ media tour. With another off day for ...

Deadspin’s Chandler explains: He just really, really loves Bob Knight

Yesterday, I wrote a rebuttal to Rick Chandler’s post on Deadspin about how he thinks IU will never be able to recruit again, how Tom Crean wasn’t the answer and a few other things that didn’t sit too favorably with ...

Continuing the Eric Gordon media tour

Continuing the Eric Gordon media tour

I’ve always thought that the NBA — its media, its day-to-day traveling, its camaraderie — exposes personality far better than the NCAA’s sheltered world. That may be more true in some cases than others, but as a rule, I think ...

And now, an attempt at answering your Bawa Muniru inquiries

Believe it or not, we actually get some emails here at ITH from time to time. Normally, they fall into two categories: 1) Here is a link to an article I would post if I was an editor. I think ...

Dominique Keller: Not a fan of IU

In the 14 months I’ve lived in my apartment, I’ve gotten in about three fights with my roommate. These fights have not stemmed from taking out the trash, or rent, or leaving too many dishes in the sink: They’ve all ...

Feb. 16, 2009: The day the Internet decided to bash Indiana for all the wrong reasons

Let me tell you about my morning. I got up late. I put on clothes I wore out to a bar Friday night. I took a cab to work. I wrote some blogs posts for the day job. Typical Monday. ...

Hoosiers miss 13 free throws — and lose by 13

Hoosiers miss 13 free throws — and lose by 13

To call free throw shooting a problem for the 2008-2009 version of the Indiana Hoosiers would be an understatement. The foul line has been more of a major catastrophe. Indiana (6-18, 1-11 Big Ten) hit just 11 of 24 free ...

Good, Bad and Ugly: Illinois

FINAL SCORE: Illinois 65, Indiana 52 THE GOOD: The second half. During their first matchup, Illinois was one of the teams this year that IU was never in the game against. At halftime, it sure looked like that was going ...

Tom Crean’s pregame speech against Illinois

Tom Crean’s pregame speech against Illinois

… So it didn’t exactly work out as he’d hoped (at least as of halftime), but it’s worth listening to if you didn’t get a chance to hear it. Even in the midst of a blowout, it’s things like this ...

St. Patrick’s Kyrie Irving on ESPN2 tonight

Kyrie Irving, one of the top 30 players in the 2010 class, an IU target and the subject of a recent ITH Q & A, will be on ESPN2 this evening at 7 PM EST. Irving and St. Patrick’s will ...

Eric Gordon dishes on girls and hobbits (yes, you read that right)

Let me preface this by saying I’m a huge Eric Gordon fan. He seems to be a soft spoken, genuinely nice kid that does things the right way. I even own an “Air Gordon” t-shirt and admittedly watched YouTube highlights ...

Proof that Tom Crean’s human: Audible frustration

Since the day Tom Crean arrived on campus in Bloomington last April, he’s said all of the right things. After inheriting a situation that quickly turned far more sour than anyone could have ever imagined, Crean still managed to give ...

Pat Forde brings IU’s attendance into perspective

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, Bad and Ugly: Minnesota

Good, Bad and Ugly: Minnesota

FINAL SCORE: Minnesota: 62 IU: 54 THE BAD AND UGLY: The first half. Whoa boy: it was tough to watch, even by this year’s standards. Turnover after turnover after turnover. And then a few more turnovers. When the fist half ...
