--New coach Tom Crean received an eight-year contract to leave Marquette but has little remaining from last season's talented squad. Indiana agreed to pay $650,000 of Crean's contract buyout at Marquette. His contract could be worth as much as $18 million. In order to leave Indiana, Crean would have a $3 million contract buyout with the Hoosiers.

FINAL RECORD
25-7 overall, 14-4 in the Big Ten, third place.

WHAT WENT RIGHT
F D.J. White was the Big Ten Player of the Year in his senior season as he averaged 17.3 points and a conference-leading 10.3 rebounds. G Eric Gordon led the Big Ten in scoring with a 20.7 average and was the conference's Freshman of the Year.

WHAT WENT WRONG
Kelvin Sampson was forced to resign as coach in late February after being found to have violated NCAA rules regarding phone calls to recruits. Assistant coach Dan Dakich was given the job on an interim basis but led the Hoosiers to a 3-4 record, including losses to Minnesota in the quarterfinals of the Big Ten tournament and Arkansas in the first round of the NCAA Tournament. It was great to have G Armon Bassett at the point, averaging 11.5 points and 3.3 assists a game, but he was booted off the team by Dakich in April and his future is in some doubt.

QUOTE TO NOTE
"I'm going to look for people who understand why we wear the candy-striped pants and why we wear Indiana on our jerseys. It's going to take time." -- New coach Tom Crean at his introductory press conference.

Indiana University confirmed the signing of Weston (Fla.) Sagemont wing Will Sheehey, who is one of two early signees for the Hoosiers. The 6-6, 190-pound Sheehey averaged 24.6 points and 10 rebounds a game as a junior at South Fork High School. He's rated as the No. 131 prospects in the country by Rivals.com and played AAU ball for the Florida Rams. "Will Sheehey to me is a guy that is the e ...(more)

I have posted on several threads here and most of my favorites are the longer-running, come in, stand up sit down threads where people vent. So I thought I would make my own. Hoosiedad, Dale, Xtreme, Josh, Nate, Darren (where have you gone?) need to help me on this. So here goes.

Like most fans I was very excited to get this season started. I know it is only coach Creans 2nd year, and that we have a very raw team this season. But after losing 3 games in Puerto Rico this weekend, I am really starting to wonder how much worse its going to get before it gets better. I know were not going to win them all, but I really thought we would have at least beat Boston or George Mas ...(more)

I'm not sure how this game is going to go. IU definitely plays better at home and Maryland is a little down this year. Any thoughts or predictions? Go Hoosiers!!!!

Happy Thanksgiving to all of you and your families.  Let us all be thankful for the blessings we have received, and for those yet to come.

Personally, I'm thankful for my first child (due 3/22/10), my family & friends, that I still have a job, and the mostly intelligent discussions here on the IU boards (just to name a few).

Here's to hoping all of you have a gr

Ok, so I was expecting the loss to Ole Miss, but not Boston U. So what do Hoosier fans think about George Mason? This team played GT and Nova very tough and I'm not sure where the hoosiers heads are. I see GM winning this game by 6-10 points. IU is young, I know, but hopefully the talent of Creek, Watford and Rivers (passing) can come quickly to win against GM. Thoughts?

Ok Hoosier fans, tought game in Puerto Rico today. Ole MIss comes in very athletic and should give the hoosiers a lot to deal with. This team is young and I'm not sure how well they'll do on the road, grant it both teams are on the road but I think Ole Miss has too much fire power. Any thoughts or assumptions? Go HOOSIERS!!!!

Why does it seem that there is a lack of effort and hustle by Tom Pritchard. He has looked loss on both ends of the court. I understand not having offensively some nights, but constantly cherry picking and not hustling back on defense is very disheartening. I know its only the 3rd game and that Ole Miss is a more experience team, but IU's lack of hustle on defense is going to cost them alot of gam ...(more)

Ok Hoosier fans what are your thoughts or expectations for tonights game? I am not truly sure what to expect just yet as I dont think we have seen enough of this team yet. In the end I do expect a win but as far as who will all start and who will be playing key minutes Im not sure. I think we have a lot of talented freshmen on the team with a few upper classmen to help such as Rivers and Dumas. On ...(more)

Did IU lose all of it's fans? I never see anybody on here talking about the team anymore. If I was to go to UK's message board it would be filled with different threads that were commented on just today. When I get on here it's filled with threads that are barely commented on. It's kind of disheartening for a guy thats so far away from other IU fans and never has anyone to talk about IU basketball ...(more)

will apparently not sign a LOI to play at IU.  There had been some speculation about that.  The Herald Times/Hoosier Scoop reported after talking with Williams' father.  This will keep one scholly open...hopefully for Selby or Kendrick.

(POLL) We know they will play at least 29 games. We know they have at least 1 win in the bag. So how many wins do you think the young Hoosiers will wrack up?  We all see improvement with a talented crop of freshment. We see several young players from last year with more experience. We see depth we didn't have before.  So how many win?  Last year we had 6. This year I predict 14 wins.  ...(more)

 What's everyone's opinion on today's game vs. Northwestern State? Judging by our last 3 games I'm just hoping for a close one. Our Hoosiers are young and have a lot of talent but they haven't shown that talent at all. They need to bring it together soon or it's going to be a long season!

FUCK**** EM UP!
