Well, I hate to say it…but we’ve just rolled over again on the road.

Nothing from the bench again on the road. That doesn’t bode well for the NCAAs.

At least we’re not down by 19 like the NW game.

How many more times is Galloway going to leave Walker before he realizes the guy can shoot?

7 fouls to 3… anyone really believe we foul that much more than the other team.

I really don’t think MSU is anything but a middle of the pack team this year, so we should be fine as long as we don’t get off to a terrible start, and have to play catch up the whole game like we did at NW.

Wow..... I'm a HS teacher in public education for 28 years now. I read that last line and could easily replace the words officials and officiating with the words "teacher/teachers" and that is public education right now. Replace with in crazy/dangerous parents then add lazy and entitled students. Pretty sad and frustrating. JMO, and I don't mean to bring this to the board. Just had to vent a bit.

I can only imagine, but thanks for what you do.

You musant say anything negative... ALWAYS be a homer...or youll upset the flock...

Not upset at all, just wanted to point out that there’s still time for him to turn it around and become the player we all expected him to be. And most importantly, I’m sure he’s not satisfied with the way he’s performed this year.

Do YOU like IU? The young MAN REPRESENTS IU!! He became a father at IU!  HE is IU FAMILY!!! HE gives his all!!!

 

I couldn’t agree more. All these young men want to do well, and I’m sure Tamar is more disappointed than any of us. He knows that he’s not playing up to his potential, and it’s obviously a mental (confidence) thing at this point, but hopefully, he’ll get it figured out because he’s an extremely talented player. Two other highly touted players (McDonalds All Americans) that struggled mightily in their first couple of years come to mind - Landon Turner and Daryl Thomas, and they both ended up winning National Championships! CMW hasn’t given up on Tamar, and we shouldn’t either.

South Carolina up 1 with 2 minutes left against Ole Miss

Watching this game and I’m convinced we’re a better team than South Carolina. Hope we get a chance to prove it.

I’m not really confident on these next 2 games 

When are we ever confident about games on the road? I know I’m not there yet.

I have to admit this is the first time I’ve paid any attention to women’s basketball, but this team is so good and so much fun to watch, it’s hard not to watch. The crazy thing is they can still get better. That’s a scary thing for the rest of the field come tourney time!

Underwood does a lot of questionable stuff.

My wife recently asked me, I think it was last Saturdays game at Michigan. “Honey, do you think you’ll die watching an IU game?”   

I think a lot of us are in the same boat.

Bilas just listed his 5 candidates for NPOY. Of course, no TJD😡

How can he not be in the top 5? Bilas is obviously biased!

TJD again, but Kopp was big today.

Refs strike again!

Just one more stop…rebound!

Here go the refs taking over the game. 

We put it to Illinois in Champagne, and they just put it to us in AH….now let’s play ball!

I’m not sorry for stating this, but sorry it is what it is…

We have just a few home games left. Let Bates get some minutes in those, if he plays within himself. If he starts throwing up bad shots, as is his wont, sit him. He gets no minutes on the road. This opinion is not out of I’ll-will towards him, but after watching him play for close to two years.

 I have never seen a more underwhelming 5 star player 

If he stays around for a couple more years, I still have hope he’ll reach his potential.

B1G seeding, Purdue has all but sealed up the championship 

Rooting for Purdue because of seeding, but my gut tells me Maryland wins this going away.

Let’s get this Illinois pregame started up

Agree, bottom line is we didn’t play well enough to win. Let’s get Illinois.

Looks like he is either ranked 16-18th or he isn't ranked at all.  Super weird.  Don't think he sticks around for another year though.  Would love for him to come back next year though and lead the team.  He will be a beast no matter where

Doesn’t make much sense to be ranked as high as 16, and not ranked at all in other services. Makes me think some have not updated their rankings.

No way Malik leaves. (I know, anything could happen.) Kid is a crucial part of this team. Appears to truly enjoy being at IU. 

I hope you’re right, but there’s always someone that surprises you in today’s crazy world of college sports. Don’t get me wrong, I hope they both come back next year, so we can keep the momentum going, and build the team around them.
