I'll admit, I listened to the game on the radio, so I didn't see what we looked like yesterday offensively. I thought we've moved the ball well this year in creating open shots. Certainly there's some work to be done in the off-season for creating better opportunities in the paint for our post players. It really sucks seeing a team that has horrendous chemistry and having careless turnovers because guys aren't looking or can't handle the ball. Just wasted possessions.

What do y'all expect from us to finish this season? It's not a hard stretch.
Feb. 15 @ Missouri - Should win, but Missouri has been playing better
Feb. 18 LSU - No excuse to not win against this LSU team
Feb. 23 Georgia - They can definitely beat us, but we took it to them in game 1. Under Avery it seems like we've done a good job against teams with only 1/2 scoring threats
Feb. 25 @ Texas A&M - I haven't watched any of TAMU. They have some good bigs, but obviously haven't put everything together this year.
Mar. 1 Ole Miss - I think this Ole Miss team is pretty underrated. This is a toss up for me.
Mar. 4 @ Tennessee - @UT it'll be pretty tough especially if they are still on the bubble
I'd probably guess 4-2, but all of these are winnable. I'm mostly just looking for a high SEC finish and NIT seed at this point. If we can have a good NIT run, I think that helps build momentum into the next season.

Im optimistic, 5-1 with a loss to Ole Miss.

This is off topic a bit, but is Tom Crean's seat getting hot? Indiana fans don't have very much patience

5-1 with a loss at Tennessee

I'm surprised he's still there.

I expect them to go after Gregg Marshall pretty soon

I was just thinking that watching them play Michigan right now. Seems like it. I read their forums and they want him gone.

If you asked me to pick each game, I'd end up at 5-1, but on the whole I don't see us putting together that kind of run. We aren't consistent enough on offense. If any team has a good shooting night against us like Auburn did in game two, we stand little chance of winning.
Posted on 2/12/17 at 1:16 pm to Gary Busey
His winning percentage is less than .600 there
Posted on 2/12/17 at 1:17 pm to TomRollTideRitter
Feel like we'll drop at least one game. Probably @A&M or @UT. Wouldn't be surprised if we dropped the Ole Miss or UGA game either, but they're all winnable games. 5-1 or 6-0 would be amazing but 4-2 is probably how we end up.

I'm watching it too. They look bad. Michigan should be beating the hell out of them, but they can't hit anything right now
Posted on 2/12/17 at 1:24 pm to train1523
Honestly I wouldn't be surprised if we found a way to go 2-4 or even 0-6

TeamRankings still give us a 16.6 percent chance to get an at large tournament bid. I don't know if these guys are reliable, but they have us with over a 50% chance of getting in with 20 wins.

Sounds familiar

Indiana had terrible luck/timing
They went after Tony Bennet the UVA coach when he was at Wazzou but got shot down since he liked Wazzou (Took over from his Dad)
Next year Wazzou AD screwed Him over and he decided to leave for UVA and absolutely crushing it
Bennett is arguably the best coach in the country right now

I love Indiana's gym. It has a throwback look to it

He's had all the time in the world to build them up. I'd say they've been too patient.
My dad is an IU fan and has wanted him gone for like 3 years now.

I remember his name was briefly mentioned as a candidate when Grant got fired and I didn't feel too good about him. He wouldn't have left Indiana for Bama anyways but I'm glad we didn't even try to persuade him.
