IUCrazy2 Posted March 11 Report Share Posted March 11 1 hour ago, IU Scott said: Nobody is making you watch or pay attention to the program. Why do something that makes you so miserable and a thing you don't enjoy. Habit and an emotional attachment developed in our youth. My kids aren't Indiana fans. I mean they wear the gear and they will pop their head in and ask me who is winning from time to time, but they aren't fans like I was at their age. If we had this Indiana growing up, there are a whole bunch of us that probably wouldn't have been fans.... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Indykev Posted March 11 Report Share Posted March 11 43 minutes ago, 5fouls said: I want to address the 'true fan' comment. I can be a true IU fan and still be unhappy with what I saw from the team for much of the season. I can be a true IU fan and still believe there are coaches out there that could do a better job than what Mike Woodson has. I can be a true IU fan and publicly express frustration over a team that can't shoot free throws and turns it over too much. I can be a true IU fan and get angry when players nut-punch an opponent, get arrested for making a scene over tacos, and get suspended before a key conference game for breaking curfew. In the last 50 years, I've probably watched, or listened to, more Indiana basketball games than anyone currently affiliated with the basketball program other than Don Fischer and, possibly, Tim Garl. I don't need anyone to tell me what a 'true' fan is. A lot of those fans that are now getting thrown under the bus were 100% correct over things like substitution patterns. Do we win the game this afternoon if we went 10 or 11 deep in the 2nd half instead of 6? We'll never know for certain, but I think most of us know the answer to that question. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seeking6 Posted March 11 Report Share Posted March 11 1 hour ago, Hoosier4Life53 said: Those would have been nice wins, but I think the home losses to Penn St, Nebraska and Northwestern hurt us more. Honest question though. Did it? Sparty gets credited with Baylor Illinois and Indiana St......with 2 of the mentioned teams (I'm assuming quad 1 wins) wouldn't have that balanced it out? Or beating bad teams by 20 meant more? I truly don't follow it enough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Indykev Posted March 11 Report Share Posted March 11 1 hour ago, IU Scott said: I wasn't rooting for us to lose in any game but the last 4 or 5 I was not getting upset over losses. I just hated the feeling of hoping for a coaching change over hoping for a win because we havent lost Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I truly don't follow it enough. It’s hard to say because the Net is so convoluted, but if we hold home court and win those games, we’re 21-10 and 13-7 in the league. Hard to imagine with that record we wouldn’t get in the NCAAs. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seeking6 Posted March 11 Report Share Posted March 11 3 hours ago, MrsStoller said: I have a problem if he’s referring to fans asking questions and wanting better leadership for the players. He could have answered professionally when asked at various opportunities but chose not to do so. He’s had plenty of opportunities to explain various aspects of his coaching, and he continually chooses not to. He doesn’t like being questioned. I have found him to be defensive with his answers, and thanking “true fans” is bit of a slap in the face to those who care and ask questions. Questioning the coach does not make one not a “true fan”, I would argue the opposite. It’s very ok for a fan to ask questions and not be pleased with leadership. Two things can be true at the same time: one can be a fan of a team AND question aspects of coaching. These are not mutually exclusive. Things certainly can be true on both ends....but the phrase mutually exclusive doesn't apply. Some fans think it's a one way street. Guess what...there are people on the other side of that street that have far more invested both personally and professionally. Just a thought.

Seeking6 Posted March 11 Report Share Posted March 11 Misfired a bit. I thought two weeks ago with 4 wins we would have Penn St/Michigan winner, Northwestern, and Illinois as our path to Sunday. We have Penn St/Michigan winner, Nebraska, Illinois as our path to Sunday. Not bad gang. Keep the faith. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We all need to let it play out. We'll see next week. One of those reminds me of the kid that was old enough to buy beer for me as a senior. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Izzo: "I gotta say — mind boggling to me that Mike has won 18 games in a conference that is really difficult, from (No.) 2 to (No.) 13. And somebody's gotta stick up for him coming back next year? What a joke. What a joke, man." Guy with exact same record as guy he is discussing says that guy did a good job.

The Big Ten as a whole was much worse than predicted. Finishing 6th in Big Ten preseason didn't mean the same thing after the games were played and a bunch of teams (like Michigan St.) were shown to be wildly overrated in the preseason. (I know you realize this but things like this are just mind numbingly stupid. It is peeing on people's heads and when they complain telling them it is rain.)
