Positive positivity going into tonight

I don’t think it takes any sort of expert in the field of season definition to tell us the overriding adjective to describe IU’s 2007-2008 season. If Big A were to put up a poll over on the right sidebar ...

Mike and Mike campaign for Dan Dakich, I shudder

On the drive in to the 9-to-5 this AM, I caught the tail end of Dan Dakich’s appearance on Mike and Mike in the Morning on ESPN Radio and the segment that followed the interview. Dakich did a bit of ...

Will Jamarcus Ellis return on Friday?

Update: According to Terry Hutchens of The Indianapolis Star, Ellis will play on Friday. That is the question heading into Friday’s Big Ten Tournament opener for the Hoosiers (which yours truly will be attending, by the way). Indiana interim coach ...

Going nowhere fast

Now that I’ve had a couple of hours to digest the debacle earlier this afternoon at Penn State, I’ve collected my thoughts on the game, the direction of this team and the program. E will weigh-in with more in The ...

The Morning After: Minnesota

  • Eamonn Brennan Mar 6, 2008 3

Judging by the comments in our game thread last night, this was not a game most of you were stressing. That makes sense: It’s a late-season Big Ten game against Minnesota, the conference is now fully out of reach, and ...

Which Hoosier team will show up?

We’ll have a lot better grasp on whether Sunday’s debacle against Michigan State was an aberration when the Hoosiers take the floor tonight in Assembly Hall opposite the Minnesota Gophers. Tubby Smith’s club is 18-10 and is coming off a ...

The Morning After: Michigan State

There are two ways to view yesterday’s debacle at Michigan State, and both depend on interpretation. The first interpretation relies on the notion that IU has some hand in everything that happens to them on the basketball court. As a ...

The Morning After: Ohio State v.2.0

  • Eamonn Brennan Feb 27, 2008 3

Ugh. Whatever that was last night, it was not pretty to watch. Eric Gordon’s game was way off, D.J. White had his share of struggles, and the Hoosiers oftentimes looked discombobulated and confused. Also, for whatever reason — partially because ...

Hoosiers hang on at home against Ohio State, 72-69

It certainly wasn’t the most aesthetically pleasing 40 minutes of basketball, but the Hoosiers held off a surging Ohio State in the second half and won in Dan Dakich’s home debut, 72-69. Though Indiana had a poor shooting first half ...

Dan Dakich on 670 the Score

Interim head coach Dan Dakich was on the Mike North Show this morning on 670 The Score in Chicago. North is the quintessential faux-chicago meat head. Normally, I wouldn’t ever knowingly subject you to this guy, but this is a ...

The Morning After: Northwestern

  • Eamonn Brennan Feb 24, 2008 3

Should IU ever be happy about squeaking things out against Northwestern? Probably not. Given that the Hoosiers are 12-2 in the conference and the Wildcats are 0-14 (!), a sloppy, grind-it-out win in Evanston is probably not something anyone at ...
