What is going on at Indiana?

Unrelated, but I know a somewhat prominent Indy alum who said he wouldn't [deleted] on Kelvin Sampson if he was on fire.

I think he "burned" that bridge.

I.U. thinks there basketball s**** doesn't stink. Well come to find out they stink. Every class Crean gets is supposedly an all world class til they take the court. Can't wait til the ponies lay the beat down on them.ijs

No doubt that over the years Indiana has been known as a basketball school. Next year's Indiana Team seems to be a work in progress. Yes they have what 4 potentially good Freshmen in their recruiting class, that is all good, but no team loses 9 players and expects to be a National Power. Glad to have Indiana on our schedule, but let's don't expect Indiana to be world beaters.

So we are catching them at a good time: early. They will probably be a better team later in the year. And then when those frosh are sophs we get them at Moody. Excellent.

Which makes Kentucky's story this year so improbable. They lost 9 players last year and made it to the championship. One of these days they're going to be a national power, but they can't expect it now.
