Indiana lost again Saturday, and I’m not sure what it meant to the Hoosiers. Winning used to be the reason people competed, and you had to prove that winning was important in order to be recruited to a program like Indiana. At some point, coaches decided different criteria trumped hunger for winning, so they recruited […]
Even in Indiana’s previous two losses, at least they were fun to watch. They were focused, selfless, connected defensively, and eager to shoot when open. Last night, the Hoosiers were none of those things, and lost to the visiting Northwestern Wildcats 74-67. No one expects Indiana win the Big 10 in Archie Miller’s fourth year. They […]
Well, Indiana’s 66-44 loss to Texas was such a tough watch that ESPN analyst Bill Walton was easily the most entertaining part of the broadcast. The question of whether the Hoosiers dominated Providence by 21 because of how soft the Friars was answered emphatically.

Indiana Football and Indiana Basketball are engaged in a rare tug of war for the hearts and minds of Hoosiers everywhere, and Archie Miller’s team is losing to Tom Allen. If you needed any confirmation that 2020 is one of the strangest years ever, that should suffice. Indiana Basketball gets rolling tomorrow night against Tennessee […]

Kaufman will have a great experience regardless of which […]
Today, Indiana Basketball will be back on the court for an official practice for the first time since the 2019-2020 season was shuttered after IU defeated Nebraska in the first round of the Big 10 Tournament in Indianapolis, and I’m feeling good about the Hoosiers. This, though, is the last time I am going to […]
When the report of Indiana Basketball hiring former UConn assistant Kenya Hunter was tweeted, there was great rejoicing among IU fans. Some media types were shocked that Hunter would make the move from UConn. “How did Archie Miller pull this off?” they asked. Here’s how. Indiana’s athletic department has more money than UConn can begin to […]
Khristian Lander is re-classing from 2021 to 2020, which means the recruit who was set to be Archie Miller’s jewel of the 2021 recruiting class will be a freshman for the upcoming season. It’s none of my business really, and I cannot rationally explain my interest in this young man’s decision, but I would like to […]
